Who we work with

We work with two kinds of businesses. Some have been stable for years on referrals and reputation, and are ready to invest in digital marketing for the first time. Others already run digital channels that bring in revenue, but the inside is held together by hand. They want to clean it up before the next stage of growth.

Every business is in one track right now. We tell you which one before you spend a dollar.

Track 01 · Foundation

You've been stable for years. Now you're ready to invest in digital marketing.

The business runs on referrals and reputation. There's no website that converts a buyer, and no social presence that survives a procurement check. Paid ads have been an afterthought, or never happened. You've reached the point where what got you here can't carry what comes next.

Track 02 · Systems

Your digital marketing works. Inside, it's still held together by you.

Ads run and leads come in. Underneath, the work that should be automated isn't. Handoffs happen by hand. The CRM is half-full and half-trusted. You're not asking for more growth yet. You're asking to clean it up so the next stage doesn't break what you've already built.

Sequenced right, your digital marketing compounds from month one instead of patching its way there. Foundation first if it's missing, systems once the brand is in market.

Why most marketing fails

You're spending on marketing, with no idea what's working.

01

Activity without conversion

Ads running. Posts going out. Money leaving the account. All of it costs. None of it closes a client.

02

Leads disappear after the first touch

Someone fills out a form. Nobody follows up within 24 hours. They move on. You never knew they were serious. That gap is where revenue goes.

03

Feast-or-famine by default

Revenue spikes when you push. It drops when you stop. Everything depends on the founder staying in motion. The business runs on sprint, never on structure.

The businesses that grow month over month aren't doing more marketing. They built a system: the brand that explains the product, the funnel that captures intent, the follow-up that closes it, and the numbers that tell them what to change next month.

How we work

Three steps. Each one builds on the last.

Step 01 · Audit

Find where you are, and what's holding you back

Before touching a budget, we figure out which problem is actually yours. The pain point looks different from business to business. For some, leads aren't coming in fast enough. For others, the brand isn't showing up online at all, or the company has been stable for years and needs a digital presence to match the next stage of growth. We map where you are, then build the plan to get you where you want to go.

Step 02 · Build

Build what the audit surfaced, in the right order

This is where execution starts. Brand, website, paid ad channels, social media, content creation, SEO, Google Business Profile, and more. You can pull from any of our services. Which ones, and in what order, depends entirely on what your business actually needs.

Step 03 · Scale

Watch the numbers, scale what works

We don't pour budget into untested channels. Once the system goes live, we watch how your audience actually responds and follow the data. What converts gets more spend. What doesn't gets cut. The numbers tell us what to change next month, which loops back to step one: what's the next gap to close? Growth gets compounded, not improvised.

How results are measured

The report is one page. What's on it depends on the goal.

The numbers we actually track
CAC
Customer Acquisition Cost

Total marketing + sales spend divided by new clients acquired.

The ceiling on what every channel is allowed to cost you.
CPL
Cost per Lead

What you pay to get one qualified lead into the funnel.

Tells us which channel is feeding the pipeline cheaply, and which is bleeding.
CVR
Conversion Rate

% who move through each stage: visitor → lead → call → client.

Shows exactly where the funnel is leaking, so we fix the weakest step first.
LTV
Lifetime Value

Total revenue one client generates before they stop buying.

Sets how aggressively you can spend to acquire. High LTV = bigger CAC allowed.
ROAS
Return on Ad Spend

Revenue generated for every $1 of paid media spent.

The fastest signal on whether a campaign is profitable, or should be killed today.
AOV
Average Order Value

What the average customer spends per purchase.

Lever for growth without touching traffic. Raise AOV by 15% and the math changes entirely.
MRR
Monthly Recurring Revenue

Predictable revenue attributable to marketing each month.

Turns marketing from a lottery into a forecast. Boardroom-friendly number.
Payback
CAC Payback Period

Months it takes for a client to repay what we spent to acquire them.

Controls cash flow. Anything above 12 months is a financing problem, not a marketing win.

If it doesn't move the goal you came to us with, we stop doing it.

Our principles

What you can expect from us.

Honesty

Tell you to stop running ads

If ads keep eating budget without bringing the results they should, even after optimizing the channel itself, the problem isn't the ads. It's somewhere else in the system, usually the site or what happens after the lead comes in. We'll tell you straight: stop the spend and fix what's actually broken first.

Diagnostic first

Audit before we build anything

We need to see what you already have before any strategy or execution can be planned. We also need to know whether the goal you came in with is realistic from where you're starting. Once we see both, the recommendation is grounded in data, not guesses.

Integrity

Fix the business, not just the marketing

Marketing and sales work together, or neither one works. If your offer doesn't land, or your buyer can't see the value, no amount of ad spend fixes that. The gap is in the business model, not the marketing. We'll tell you straight, and we'll help you fix it so your marketing actually turns leads into clients.

Unit economics

Do the math before recommending a channel

The cost of acquiring a client is never fixed. It depends on the quality of buyer you're going after. Cheaper services pull cheaper clients with lower CPL. Higher-ticket services need higher CPL to land the right buyer. Before recommending a channel, we make sure your unit economics support what it costs to play there. We'll do the math with you.

Reporting

Remove vanity metrics from every report

Your report shows the metrics tied to your actual goal, and how each one is built. If your goal is profit, that means CPL, CAC, CVR, ROI, with the math behind every number visible. If it's a different outcome, the report is shaped around that instead. The point is the same: nothing on the page exists for show.

System

Build as one system, in the right order

Digital marketing isn't a list of pieces you ship one by one. It's a single system, where each part feeds the next. Before we build, we map the marketing assets you already have, then figure out what's missing and what we can plug in to start. From there, we build the rest in the order it needs to go: brand → site → funnel → CRM → automation → paid. Slower at the start, much cheaper everywhere after.

I spent over 6 years working inside business operations, analyzing how companies are structured, where they lose efficiency, and why results break at the system level. That perspective led me to co-found Syntri Labs, where we turn fragmented marketing into a measurable acquisition system tied to real business outcomes. I lead strategy and system design, while implementing automation, AI, and web infrastructure to help businesses understand what actually drives growth and where they are losing it.

I've spent 6+ years working in marketing execution across service businesses and product brands, managing campaigns and turning underperforming channels into consistent lead flow. That led me to co-found Syntri Labs, where I lead social media and paid acquisition within a structured growth system. I focus on performance and optimization, while shaping the visual layer of the brand so that creative and conversion work together and the business looks as strong as it performs.
