/ Growth marketing services what a programme includes
Growth marketing services, scoped down to the week.
Growth marketing services from Perfometrics come as a defined programme, not a vague retainer. You get a unit economics model, a quarterly channel plan, weekly test sprints across paid, SEO, CRO and email, and one report that ties it all to new customers and contribution. Senior specialists build and ship it.
You'll see the first month's test plan before you commit to anything.
Choosing who to hire? Growth marketing agency: how we work
Illustrative growth curve. The totals are real, rounded down.
Modules added as economics allow/ Sound familiar?
You know you need growth. Not what you'd be buying.
Growth proposals tend to read the same: full funnel, data-driven, test and learn. Then the first invoice arrives and nobody can say what was actually delivered that month.
A proposal that's just a channel list
Paid, SEO, CRO, email, analytics, all ticked. No word on which comes first, what gets shipped in week three, or who decides when budget moves between them.
Month two looks like month one
The kickoff energy fades into a status call and a dashboard link. Tests sit 'in the pipeline', the backlog never shrinks and you can't point to one shipped change.
Spend rises before the maths is done
Budgets go up in week one because the agency wants to show movement. Nobody has checked contribution per order, so scale arrives before anyone knows whether it pays.
Reports that grade activity
Tasks completed, campaigns launched, posts published. What you wanted to see was new customers, what each one cost and how quickly that money came back.
A growth programme should be as easy to check as an invoice: named deliverables, a fixed weekly rhythm and one set of numbers.
/ What's included
Growth marketing services, in five modules.
Every programme runs on the same five modules. Four are always on. The channel module flexes: we switch channels on or off as your numbers justify them.
The growth model
Our growth marketing services start with a working spreadsheet, not a slide. It holds your margin, CAC by channel, repeat rate and payback, and shows what happens to profit if spend doubles, conversion slips or prices change.
Why it matters: every later decision, from bids to discounts, gets checked against one model instead of each channel's own maths.
- A live Google Sheet you own, not a PDF
- Contribution per order after returns, fees and shipping
- Target CAC and payback for new versus returning customers
- Scenarios for more spend, lower conversion or a price change
- Inputs refreshed monthly from your shop, CRM and ad accounts
- Data feeds checked by our marketing analytics services team
Quarterly growth plan and budget
Each quarter you get a written plan: the constraint we are attacking, the channel mix and monthly budget per channel, the headline tests, and what we will stop doing. It fits on two pages and you sign it off before spend moves.
Why it matters: a short plan with an explicit stop list keeps the team on the one constraint that matters this quarter.
- One named constraint per quarter, agreed with you
- Monthly budget by channel, with reallocation rules written in
- Three to five headline tests with expected impact
- A stop list: channels, campaigns and tasks we drop
- Targets for new customers, CAC and contribution
- Signed off by you before any budget changes
Weekly test sprints
Work ships in one-week sprints. Each test gets a one-page brief with hypothesis, metric, sample size and stop rule before it launches. Results land in a shared test log, so a losing idea from March doesn't quietly return in June.
Why it matters: a fixed weekly cadence is the difference between a backlog that shrinks and one that only grows.
- A scored backlog you can open at any time
- A one-page brief per test, written before launch
- Sample size and minimum run time set up front
- A 30-minute weekly call: results, decisions, next sprint
- Test log with screenshots, numbers and the decision taken
- Tests across ads, landing pages, offers and email
Channel execution modules
The plan only matters if someone builds it. Senior specialists run each channel you switch on: paid search and social, SEO, conversion work and Klaviyo email. They share one backlog, so a winning ad angle becomes a landing page and an email within days.
Why it matters: channels planned in one place share what they learn, instead of each paying to discover it separately.
- Paid media via our performance marketing services
- Page and checkout tests from our conversion rate optimisation services
- Flows and campaigns through our email marketing services
- Organic demand built with our SEO services team
- Modules switched on or off at each quarterly review
- Work done directly in Shopify, ad platforms, Klaviyo and GTM
Reporting and reviews
Reporting runs on three rhythms. A weekly scorecard on one page, a monthly report that explains movement in revenue, CAC and contribution, and a quarterly review where we decide what to scale, fix or drop in the next plan.
Why it matters: separating weekly noise from monthly trends stops the team reacting to every bad Tuesday.
- Weekly scorecard: spend, new customers, CAC, conversion rate
- A monthly report in plain language, not exported charts
- Blended MER and new-customer CAC beside platform figures
- Cohort view of repeat purchase and payback
- Quarterly review deck with the next plan attached
- A Looker Studio dashboard in your own account
/ How it works
Your first 90 days.
The opening quarter is front-loaded with groundwork. By day 90 you should have a model, a tested plan and a rhythm that runs without anyone chasing it.
Model and measure
We build the growth model, close tracking gaps, pull quick wins out of the existing accounts and write the first quarterly plan with you.
You get: first changes live within two weeks of kickoff, and a signed plan.
First sprints
Weekly sprints start across the modules in scope. Early tests are usually landing page fixes, offer tests and budget moved away from waste.
You get: a test log with the first readable results.
Scale what worked
Winners get budget and are rolled out to other channels. Losers are logged and dropped. We run the first quarterly review and rewrite the plan.
You get: a second-quarter plan built on your own data.
Run the rhythm
Sprints, monthly reports and quarterly plans continue. Channel modules are added, paused or deepened as the model shows where the next customer is cheapest.
You get: a programme you can check against its plan at any time.
/ Results
Programmes that ran, and what they returned.
These numbers come from ecommerce programmes in which we combined several modules: paid, search, conversion work and email. We report them as programme results, because no single channel produced them.

From zero to outgrowing their first warehouse.
Our clients' data stays theirs, so we show rounded totals rather than their dashboards.
/ Is this for you?
When growth marketing services are the right buy.
✓A great fit if you are
- Selling online with some order history so there is real data to build the model on
- Running two or more channels already and want them planned from one backlog
- Able to approve tests every week with one decision-maker on your side
- Ready to share margin and cost data so targets protect profit, not only revenue
- Wanting a scope you can check monthly with named deliverables instead of hours
✕Probably not a fit if you
- Need one channel fixed, fast. Start with a single module, such as our performance marketing services
- Want strategy and leadership, not execution. Our fractional CMO services may suit better
- Have no sales or leads yet. A model needs real orders, so launch first and test after
- Expect results inside a month. Readable tests take weeks and compounding channels take quarters
/ Before you sign
What good growth marketing services include.
Use this as a checklist against any growth proposal, ours included. If an offer can't show most of these in writing, you will struggle to judge it six months from now.
A model you keep
The proposal should promise a unit economics model in a format you own and can edit. If targets come from an 'industry benchmark ROAS', they aren't your targets, and spend can scale while profit shrinks.
A named cadence
Look for a stated rhythm: how often tests ship, when you meet and what each meeting decides. 'Ongoing optimisation' tells you nothing. 'One sprint a week, reviewed every Monday' tells you what to expect.
Written test rules
Ask how a test gets called. A good answer mentions a hypothesis, a primary metric, a sample size worked out in advance and a stop rule. Without these, early noise gets reported as wins.
Rules for moving money
Budget should follow the model, not the supplier's favourite channel. Check the offer says who can move spend between channels, by how much, how often, and how you hear about it.
Reporting on business numbers
The monthly report should lead with new customers, CAC, contribution and payback, with platform ROAS shown as context. A report built on clicks and impressions only grades activity.
A way to step down
Ask what happens when a module stops paying its way. A sound scope lets you pause a channel or drop to strategy only at a review point, and keeps every account and file in your name.
Need someone to lead marketing rather than run a programme? Our fractional CMO services cover strategy, budget and hiring.
