The problem

Pipeline volume is not pipeline value.

01

MQLs ≠ Revenue

Lots of leads, not enough deals

MQL volume looks great in dashboards but doesn't reconcile to closed-won, payback period or net LTV.

Budget chasing volume, not pipeline

Without knowing which leads close, you're optimising the top of the funnel and starving the bottom.

Disconnected reporting

Sales blames marketing

Salesforce says one thing. Google Ads says another. HubSpot says a third. Nothing reconciles.

“Marketing claims the lead. Sales says it's trash. The CRM tells a third story.”

Our belief

Business-first, not platform-first

Every campaign is built backward from your unit economics: lead conversion rate, CAC, net LTV. Not MQL or SQL counts.

Full funnel, not siloed channels

Buyers rarely convert in one click. We map the full path from first touch to closed deal, with no fragmented reporting.

Grow customers, not just pipeline

We optimise for closed-won deals, not leads dressed up as growth.

Finance-grade reporting

Reports reconciled to your CRM: conversion rate and closed-won by source and campaign are the only definitive guidance.

What we run for you

Core services. One outcome: profitable pipeline.

01

Paid media strategy

Reverse-engineered from your unit economics, channel-agnostic by design. We follow the math and conversion, not platform or CRM noise.

Funnel & pipeline audit

Paid is rarely the whole problem. We diagnose the real bottleneck: lead quality, attribution, sales-cycle length, conversion to opportunity or close rate.

The challenge. Over-reliant on third-party platforms to deliver contracts, with high inquiry volume but low conversion into signed, paying customers.

  1. Geo-segmented capture. Restructured campaigns by demand origin (Berlin coliving: Germany / EU / rest of world) to match intent and bid pressure.
  2. Account hygiene & coverage. Full check on keywords, sitelinks and assets. Closed gaps that inflated CPC without adding pipeline.
  3. Offline conversion pipeline. Sent contract-signed and paying-customer events from Salesforce back to the ad platforms.

FAQ

Questions founders ask us first.

Something else? hello@pixelandprofits.com

Which channels do you run?

Google, Meta, LinkedIn and TikTok. We are channel-agnostic: budget follows closed-won revenue, not platform preference.

Which CRMs do you work with?

Salesforce and HubSpot most often. We wire signed-contract and paying-customer events back to the ad platforms so they optimise for deals, not form fills.

How is this different from a normal agency report?

Instead of CPL and MQL counts, we report closed-won revenue, CAC payback and pipeline velocity by source and campaign, reconciled to your CRM.

How do we start?

Most clients start with the 2-week marketing audit or the 90-day growth sprint. Apply for a strategy call and a partner reviews your funnel before the call.

How do we communicate?

In your Slack, Notion and Sheets. Short, structured, action-oriented updates every week and a business review every month.

Where do you work?

We are a remote team operating across APAC, EMEA and the US, with deep experience in Indonesia and Southeast Asia.

Ready to scale profitably?

A partner reviews your numbers before the call. You leave with three things to fix, whether you hire us or not.
