The MUGA Philosophy

Why MUGA Performance exists.

I started MUGA because I'd seen too many agencies selling complexity to clients. 50-page reports. Account managers who'd never touched a PPC dashboard. £20K/month retainers for services that produced £2K/month in profit.

Performance marketing isn't magic. It's discipline. You understand where the money goes, you understand why, you optimize continuously. You don't need to advertise on every platform — you need to focus on the channels that bring real ROAS and conversions.

Real strategy

Two stores, two strategies.

How I decide where to concentrate budget. Two fashion eCommerce stores, similar budgets, fundamentally different strategies. Because the nature of the purchase is different.

01

Occasion dresses

"I'm going to a wedding, I need a dress."

The user is actively searching. She has the problem in her head and wants the solution. Money goes to Google Search Ads and Shopping Ads, segmented by event occasion. Plus controlled Performance Max and Meta retargeting for visitors who don't buy.

Google Search Shopping Ads Performance Max Meta retargeting
Intent: Search · Need · Active
02

Custom-order footwear

"Those boots are gorgeous, I'm buying them."

The user isn't searching. The purchase comes from impulse, triggered by visual discovery. Money goes to Meta Ads and TikTok Ads with strong video creative. Very little Google, only for branded search and search retargeting.

Meta Ads TikTok Ads Branded search Search retargeting
Intent: Discovery · Want · Passive

Same industry. Similar budgets. Never a template. That's the difference.

Process · First 30 days

What you get in the first 30 days.

No long-term retainer without concrete proof in month one. Here's exactly what you see, what you receive, and what you base the decision to continue or walk away on.

WEEK 1

Full audit

  • Read-only access to accounts (Google Ads, Meta, GA4, GTM, Search Console)
  • ~12 hours of in-depth audit — campaigns, tracking, attribution, feed
  • Findings document — 10–15 pages of concrete issues and estimated impact
  • 60-min call to walk through findings together
WEEK 2

Plan + tracking gap analysis

  • 90-min strategy call — define 90-day objectives, KPIs, success criteria
  • Implementation plan with priorities (high impact / quick wins / long-term)
  • Tracking gap analysis — exactly what's missing from infrastructure and the risk it means
  • Written decisions document — agreed and signed by both parties
WEEK 3

Setup + restructure

  • Server-side tracking setup, custom events, attribution
  • PPC campaign restructure — bidding, audiences, account structure
  • Implementation of first 2–3 high-impact moves from week 2 plan
  • Test preparation for week 4
WEEK 4

Live + decision

  • Daily optimization — live campaigns, data-driven adjustments
  • First baseline report — what you'll see from what we'll measure over the next 90 days
  • 60-min review call — merge / no-merge decision on monthly retainer
  • If it's not a fit, we part ways with no penalty. The audit fee stays paid for work done.
