Who We Are

About Scale Up Advertising

We're the team dedicated to killing it for your business.

Scale Up Advertising is the performance marketing team with 8+ years scaling independent, cult-following brands that the mainstream never made room for. We don't chase trends. We find the audience that was already looking for you, and we make sure they find you first.

Are you ready to scale up?

Our Proven System

Our Advertising Protocol

A disciplined advertising framework designed to identify winning ads, scale them efficiently, and sustain performance over time.

Before campaigns begin, we establish the target return on ad spend (ROAS) required for profitable scaling. This ensures growth remains aligned with the brand’s margin structure.

META (Facebook / Instagram) Advertising

Your people are out there, looking for something that doesn't feel like everything else. We make sure they stop on you.

Custom Customer Acquisition Systems

Beyond a single platform approach we build the full acquisition infrastructure to include Google, Pinterest and TikTok campaigns.

Email Marketing

Your list is your most valuable asset. We build automated flows and campaigns that turn buyers into repeat customers and brand loyalists.

1 On 1 Business Growth Consulting

No decks. No fluff. Just us in the numbers with you, finding the levers that move revenue and pulling them.

How We Win Together

The Protocol

Our proven process.

1

Isolated Testing

Every new ad is first tested in its own cold-traffic campaign or ad set. This isolates performance so we can clearly identify which creatives, products, and messaging are driving conversions. Testing campaigns are structured to generate fast, reliable signals.

Best-Seller First Strategy

We begin with products that already convert and have shown promise. Top sellers and / or new releases receive priority budget allocation because they have the highest probability of scaling profitably. New launches are introduced once core revenue drivers are established.

Controlled Scaling

Once a winner is identified, budgets increase gradually. Campaigns and ad sets are typically scaled by approximately 20% every 2–3 days, provided performance remains stable. This protects efficiency while allowing Meta’s algorithm to maintain momentum.

Bridge CBO Phase

When campaigns reach approximately 50 purchases within a 7-day window, we launch campaign budget optimization (CBO) campaigns. These operate at higher budgets using top-performing ads (with strong ad engagement) and targeting combinations to unlock additional scale.
