Who we work with

Built for businesses that need marketing to pay for itself.

We're a marketing agency for ecommerce brands first, and local service businesses second. Here's exactly who we're built for — and who we're not.

[001]

Ecommerce & DTC Brands

Store owners selling a real product with real margins — including brands on Shopify, WooCommerce and Amazon.

We're built for brands that want their marketing measured the way you measure your business: in sales, not clicks. Our performance model ties our fee directly to the sales Meta attributes to our ads — no monthly retainer.

  • You sell physical products on Shopify or similar
  • You have a product people already buy
  • You can fund a test ad budget for at least 30–60 days
  • You want creative and ads handled together

Local Service Businesses

Home services, clinics, contractors, gyms, salons — businesses that live and die by the phone ringing and the bookings coming in.

You don't need a brand film or a rebrand. You need a predictable flow of qualified leads every month, at a cost per lead you can plan around. We run full-funnel paid media on Meta and Google for your service area, track every call and form fill, and report what each lead actually cost.

  • You're an established business with good reviews
  • You have a clear service people book or call for
  • You can fund a monthly ad budget for at least 60–90 days
  • You can respond to leads quickly

When we're not a fit

We'd rather tell you now than take your money and disappoint you later.

  • You need marketing to fix a broken offer or unprofitable unit economics
  • You want guaranteed rankings or a guaranteed return — nobody honest can promise that
  • You're looking for the cheapest option rather than the most accountable one
  • You have no budget for ad spend and expect results from management fees alone

Questions, Answered

Straight answers

What does a marketing agency actually do for a small business?

In our case: we plan, launch and manage your paid advertising on Meta and Google, produce the ads themselves, set up tracking so every lead and sale is attributed correctly, and report the numbers that matter — cost per lead, cost per sale, and revenue. You keep running your business; we run the marketing against targets we agree on together.

Is hiring a marketing agency worth it for a small business?

It's worth it when the math works: the revenue your marketing generates has to comfortably exceed what you pay in ad spend and fees. That's why we track cost per lead and cost per acquisition from day one — so you can see the return, not just the activity. If the numbers don't support it, we'll tell you before you spend.

How do I choose a marketing agency for my business?

Ask three things: what results they've driven for businesses like yours (real numbers, not logos), how they'll attribute those results to their work, and what happens if it doesn't perform. Our answer to the third one is built into the pricing — flat retainers come with a 14-day launch guarantee, and our ecommerce model only pays us on sales we generate.

What does marketing cost with Arc Studio?

Ecommerce brands pay 10% of the sales Meta attributes to our ads — no monthly retainer, and you fund ad spend directly. Local service businesses pay $1,200/month with a 14-day launch guarantee, and their ad budget goes directly to Meta. Month-to-month, no long-term contracts. Full details are on the pricing page.
