Profit, not platform credit
Platform ROAS stays visible, but it does not lead the conversation. We judge paid media against margin, customer quality, blended CAC, payback and the revenue your business can actually recognize.
Audit before spend
Paid & Performance Marketing for Retail
One paid plan for shelves, screens and the site.

Why Paid & Performance Marketing for Retail
The sale can happen anywhere.
Retail demand moves with promotions, inventory, location and season. A customer may research online, buy in store and return through a loyalty journey, so a single platform conversion view misses much of the result. Search, retail media and social budgets can compete for the same sale. Paid reports look efficient while store availability, returns or margin tell a different story.
Control, not blind automation
PMax, Advantage+ and smart bidding can improve delivery. They cannot decide which demand is incremental, which customers are worth acquiring or when the next dollar should move elsewhere.
Your account, your data, your work
We bring paid media, CRM outcomes, revenue data and channel performance into one reporting platform, so you can see what is driving business results, what is wasting budget and where the next dollar should go.
our approach
Our Approach
Connect the trade calendar to every paid decision.
Sometimes the right recommendation is to increase spend. Sometimes it is to cut it. You get a written plan that identifies what to keep, what to stop and what needs rebuilding.
Map the trade calendar, product economics and where stock can actually be sold. Audit Shopping feeds, local intent and existing channel overlap.
Plan paid search, Shopping, social and retail media around the role each plays in discovery, store visits and ecommerce conversion.
Use available store, site and loyalty data to judge incrementality and reallocate spend around contribution rather than claimed ROAS.
We decide what to fund, what to cut and when additional spend no longer makes commercial sense.
Our Paid Media
Services
We manage the channels that move your buyers, with specialists who understand the commercial role of each one.
Search & Shopping
We manage Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Search, Shopping and Performance Max with disciplined query analysis, negative keywords, brand controls, value-based bidding and structured asset groups. Automation handles more execution than it used to. That makes the quality of the inputs, controls and commercial objectives more important, not less.
Paid Social
We manage Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok and Snap around the role each platform plays in the customer journey. Advantage+ changed the job on Meta: broad audiences, creator-led creative, clean product data and sensible exclusions now matter more than ad-set tinkering. For B2B, we optimize beyond form fills toward qualified leads, pipeline and revenue. For B2C, we connect creative, customer mix, margin and repeat value back to acquisition decisions.
Programmatic, Display & CTV
We use curated inventory, placement-level reporting, brand-safety controls and supply-path scrutiny to reduce waste and improve accountability. CTV and display are evaluated for the demand and incremental contribution they create, not just completion rates, impressions or conversions claimed through view-through attribution.
Measurement & Attribution
We connect paid activity to CRM outcomes, sales data and commercial reporting. Attribution supports tactical decisions. Incrementality testing helps establish causality. Marketing mix modeling supports broader allocation decisions where sufficient data is available. No single model gets the final word.
When every platform claims the sale, someone has to find the truth.
Most agencies sell channel management while the platforms swallow the levers they used to charge for. We make the calls the algorithm cannot: what to fund, what to cut, which value signal to optimize toward, where creative is limiting scale and when additional spend no longer makes commercial sense. Smart Bidding, PMax and Advantage+ can improve execution. They cannot replace commercial judgment.

Common
Questions
Can campaigns account for stock and store location?
Yes, when inventory and location data are available. We use them to avoid promoting unavailable products and to make local search and shopping activity useful to nearby buyers.
How does MxD assess retail media claims?
We compare network-reported outcomes with sales and customer data, and use holdouts or other incrementality checks where the scale and access make them practical.
How do you measure Paid & Performance Marketing for Retail?
We watch product-level margin, stock-aware sales, store and ecommerce outcomes, returns and incremental revenue. Trade-period decisions need a view of the whole retail P&L.
How do you report differently from our current agency?
MER, POAS, contribution margin, blended CAC payback and customer quality sit at the top of the conversation. Platform-attributed ROAS remains visible, but it is reconciled against CRM conversions, booked revenue and actual commercial outcomes. Where the numbers disagree, we investigate the difference rather than selecting the version that makes the campaign look best. You receive regular operating reviews and clear reporting built for decisions, not dashboard theater.
