    Five suppliers, or one team

    One team, one set of numbers.

    Most growing businesses buy marketing in pieces: an SEO agency, an ads agency, a social media freelancer, a web developer and someone for email. Each one reports its own numbers. Compound puts all of it under one team and one plan.

    • The brief

      Bought in pieces Each supplier hears a different version of your goals.

      One team, one plan One brief, written once, that every channel works from.

    • The data

      Bought in pieces Every platform counts its own conversions, and several claim the same sale.

      One team, one plan A shared measurement plan with checks for duplicate enquiries.

    • The reporting

      Bought in pieces Five suppliers, five versions of the truth.

      One team, one plan One team, one set of numbers.

    • The decisions

      Bought in pieces Budget is split by whoever argues hardest.

      One team, one plan Budget moves to whichever channel is booking jobs.

    • Accountability

      Bought in pieces When results slip, each supplier points at another.

      One team, one plan One team owns the result, with no one else to point at.

    • Creative

      Bought in pieces Ads, posts and emails that look like they came from different businesses.

      One team, one plan One look and one voice in every channel, built from the same customer persona.

    Results

    Measured in clients' own accounts.

    Each tile is one client's result from a campaign we ran, read from their own ad account and linked to the case study it comes from.

    Read every case study

    How the plan is run

    Eight rules, first proven in Google Ads.

    These principles grew from our Google Ads work: measure useful enquiries, review irrelevant spend and assess results before increasing the budget.

    1. Rule 01

      Count real enquiries only

      The number it moves: True cost per lead

      Bidding learns from real calls and forms, not page views or taps on a phone number. We check this first, because every number after it depends on what gets counted.

    2. Rule 02

      Block searches that never book

      The number it moves: Cost per useful click

      We review available search-term data, identify irrelevant traffic and add exclusions where appropriate.

    3. Rule 03

      Ads written by job and suburb

      The number it moves: Click-through rate

      Campaigns are split by job and by suburb, so the ad a searcher reads names their problem, their area and how urgent it is.

    4. Rule 04

      The page matches the ad

      The number it moves: Click-to-enquiry rate

      The page says what the ad promised: same job, same suburb, phone number on the first screen. More of the clicks you already pay for turn into calls.

    5. Rule 05

      Cut what costs more than a job is worth

      The number it moves: Cost per lead

      Anything running above your cost-per-lead limit is rewritten or cut, and the money moves to what already books. We set that limit from what a job is worth to you.

    6. Rule 06

      Spend more only where jobs get booked

      The number it moves: Enquiries vs spend growth

      When something works, we put more money behind it, for as long as enquiries grow faster than the budget. A converting campaign held back by its budget is the signal to spend more.

    7. Rule 07

      Track revenue from jobs won

      The number it moves: Return per ad dollar

      The number that pays your bills is the work won, not the form filled. Where a client records revenue against the ads, that is the number we steer by.

    8. Rule 08

      Build on practical campaign experience

      The number it moves: Waste blocked before the first click

      Your account does not start from zero. It opens with the negative keywords, checks and platform rules the accounts before it already paid to learn.

    By application

    Who it is for, and who it is not.

    Who it is for

    • Established businesses with a proven service and the capacity to take on much more work.
    • Owners planning a much bigger next year, not a slightly better one.
    • Teams willing to share revenue data, so every channel is judged on jobs won.
    • Businesses that want one partner accountable for the whole growth plan.
    • Leaders who make decisions quickly when the numbers are clear.

    Who it is not for

    • Businesses trying marketing for the first time.
    • Anyone looking for one channel at the lowest price. Our individual services suit that better.
    • Businesses that could not handle more work if the phone rang more.
    • Anyone who wants a report on clicks rather than revenue.

    Our working standards

    • Count recorded calls and submitted forms as enquiries; report page views and phone-button taps separately.
    • Match each ad to a relevant page about the service being advertised.
    • Review campaign content, targeting and budgets before launch.
    • Use the platform's supported call features to make phone contact easy.
    • Review ad copy against platform policies and apply feedback from previous reviews.
    • Report on the agreed schedule, with the results and next steps clearly explained.
    How service and page checks work

    Someone searching for bond cleaning should reach a page that explains the service and makes it easy to enquire. Our cleaning campaign checks include matching the advertised service to its landing page.

    Can I start with one channel?

    Yes. Our individual services, such as Google Ads, SEO or a new website, are the right place to start with one channel. SoudCoh Compound is for businesses ready to run every channel as one plan.

    What happens after I enquire?

    How are results reported?

    We report enquiries, their cost and the work completed across the agreed channels. Where reliable sales records are available, we also connect enquiries to jobs and revenue. We explain attribution limits and gaps alongside the results.

    Do you take every business that applies?

    No. We take on a small number of businesses at a time, and only where we can see a clear path to growth. If we cannot, we will say so.

    Bring your growth plans to the table.
