Paid media · Creative · AI systems

Scale past the plateau.

Red Traffic Media runs Meta, TikTok, Google and YouTube for brands already spending $100k+ a month, from supplements and lead gen to fashion and beyond. We pair senior media buyers with an in-house creative studio and our own AI systems, and we manage to contribution margin, not platform ROAS.

Who we work with

Built for brands already moving.

We take a small number of accounts so senior people stay on them. If the list on the right sounds like you, we're probably not the right partner yet, and we'll tell you so.

Good fit
  • $100k+ a month in paid social and search, or a funded plan to get there within a quarter.
  • Proven product-market fit. Repeat purchase, healthy reviews, margins that can carry acquisition.
  • A growth wall you can name. CAC climbing, creative fatigue, one channel carrying everything.
  • A team that ships. Landing pages, offers and inventory can move within days.
Not a fit yet
  • Pre-launch or still testing offers with no conversion data to learn from.
  • Under $100k a month in spend. Our fee would eat too much of your working budget.
  • Judged only on in-platform ROAS. We report on new customers and margin.
  • Looking for a cheap pair of hands to press buttons inside Ads Manager.
Niches we scale

Any vertical. Same discipline.

Every niche has its own economics, policies and creative rules. We plan around the metric that actually decides profit in yours.

Tracked on: subscription LTV

Supplements & nutra

Policy-safe claims written with compliance in mind, so ads get approved and accounts stay healthy. Built for subscribe-and-save and repeat buyers.

Tracked on: cost per qualified lead

Lead generation

Instant forms, quizzes and landing pages, with CRM outcomes sent back to the platforms so they optimise for leads that close.

Tracked on: margin after returns

Fashion & apparel

Catalog ads, collection launches and drop calendars, with creator content that moves new colourways fast.

Tracked on: first-order CAC

Beauty & skincare

Before-and-after storytelling, routine bundles and creator seeding, kept within platform rules on results claims.

Tracked on: cost per booked call

Info, coaching & B2B

Webinar, VSL and application funnels where the real conversion happens on a sales call, not a checkout.

Tracked on: payback period

Apps & subscriptions

Trial-to-paid optimisation across Meta, TikTok and AppLovin, measured on cohorts rather than installs.

What we run

One team. Media, creative and the systems between them.

Platform algorithms now do most of the targeting. What still decides results is the creative you feed them, the signal you send back, and how fast you act on it.

Media buying

Paid social & search at scale

Account structures built for how Meta's Andromeda ranking and TikTok's GMV Max work today: fewer, broader campaigns fed by many distinct creative concepts. Budgets move daily against margin, not hunches.

Meta Advantage+TikTok GMV MaxGoogle PMaxYouTubeAppLovin
Creative studio

Ads built to be tested

Strategists, editors, designers and a vetted UGC creator network. Every brief starts from a hypothesis about an angle, an audience or a hook, so every result teaches the next round something.

AI systems

Our own tooling

Creative tagging, spend anomaly alerts, competitor ad monitoring and brief generation, running on your account data every day.

Optimisation

CRO & landing pages

Offer and page tests run alongside media so the traffic you pay for converts. Advertorials, listicles and quiz funnels built per angle.

Measurement

Signal & attribution

Server-side CAPI and Events API, post-purchase surveys, incrementality holdouts and a blended MER view your CFO will trust.

Questions

Before you apply.

Doesn't a percentage of spend reward you for spending more?

It's the fair question to ask. That's why our targets are set on new-customer CAC and contribution margin, agreed with you before we start. If more spend stops being profitable, we recommend pulling it back, and we put that in writing in the monthly review.

Why is the minimum $100k a month?

Below that level, platforms don't get enough conversions to learn quickly, and a full senior team costs too much as a share of your budget. You'd get better value from a freelancer or a smaller agency until you reach that scale.

Who owns the ad accounts and creative?

You do. We work inside your Business Manager and ad accounts, and every creative file we produce belongs to you, including raw footage from creators.

Is creative production really included?

Yes. Strategy, scripting, editing, design and creator sourcing are part of the fee. Creator usage fees and large shoots are passed through at cost and approved by you first.

What do you need from our team?

Admin access to ad accounts and analytics, a weekly 30-minute call, quick sign-off on creative, and someone who can ship landing page and offer changes within a few days.

How long is the contract?

A 90-day initial term, which is how long a proper rebuild takes to show up in the numbers. After that it's rolling with 30 days' notice.
