The process

How We Scale eCommerce Media Without Losing Margin

01

Find the Efficiency Gaps

First, we review channel and funnel performance to identify where acquisition efficiency breaks down as you allocate spend through the customer journey.

02

Rebuild Around Unit Economics

Once the gaps are clear, we set channel roles, budget priorities, and acquisition targets around the economics of each customer.

03

Scale What Holds

When your performance stabilizes, we increase spend where CAC and ROAS remain healthy. Then, we keep testing creative, targeting, and funnel allocations as ad volume grows.

Why eCommerce brands choose 9AM

Multi-SKU Budget Decisions

We look beyond account-level averages to understand how different products and offers affect acquisition performance as budgets move.

Full-Funnel Coverage

Our team connects paid social discovery with branded search, checkout, and email or SMS retention across the entire eCommerce purchase journey.

Inventory-Aware Media Planning

We account for product availability, restocks, launches, and merchandising priorities when deciding where paid budget goes.

Demand Creation and Capture

Our team looks at how Meta and TikTok generate product interest that Google Search and Shopping may capture later in the buying journey.

Working together

A few good questions.

What changes do you make to the media plan during promotions, seasonal peaks, and major sales periods?

We adjust budgets, bidding, audience mix, and creative timing around expected demand and promotional windows. We also factor discounting and product margins into acquisition targets so volume doesn’t come at the expense of profitability.

How does 9AM approach media buying for subscription products with longer payback periods?

We factor expected customer value and payback period into acquisition targets. This gives subscription brands room to acquire customers at a sustainable cost even when the first order doesn’t recover the full acquisition spend.

Can you separate prospecting performance from returning-customer revenue?

Yes. We separate new and returning customer performance where platform and first-party data allow it. This gives a clearer view of how much paid media is actually driving new customer acquisition.

What signals tell you an eCommerce channel has reached diminishing returns?

We look for rising CAC, declining incremental ROAS, and weaker conversion efficiency as spend increases. When additional budget produces progressively less return, we reassess channel allocation before increasing spend further.
