We're Not Your Average Agency
Here's Why We're Different

Reason #1

We only hire the top 1% of Talent In The World (no joke)

  • Top 1% A-Players with a minimum of 7 years of experience and $30M+ in managed ad spend.
  • We hire exclusively in North America, with select team members based in the UK to ensure seamless timezone coverage.
  • 0 Juniors. Our entire team is composed of Senior Level Growth Directors.

In 4 years we have had 15,000+ applications and hired ~24 team members.

"Most agencies hire cheap overseas talent with little experience and let them manage your money.

They have a fancy name above the door but WHO is really managing your ads behind the scenes and what is their background?

When building The Moonlighters I wanted to do things differently.

We invested in recruiting the best paid ads team in the entire world, putting them all under one roof, and giving brands access to talent that they would otherwise be unable to find, recruit, or afford.

This focus on talent acquisition is by far our biggest differentiator in the market and it’s the main reason most brands bring us in after 2-3 failed engagements with traditional agencies and freelancers.

The Result: You get someone who has 7+ years experience and has managed $30M+ across Facebook Ads, Google Ads, and Shopify with the expertise you need to squeeze every last sale out of your ad budget and scale your ads PROFITABLY.”

Reason #2

We operate as A Partner nOT an Agency

  • Our Growth Directors are paid on performance. The team managing your ads has skin in the game and is incentivized to leave no stone unturned.
  • We turn away more clients than we take on. If you receive an offer from us, it means we genuinely believe we can scale.
  • We operate at scale, so the wins, learnings, and strategies from 100+ brands flow directly into how we manage yours.

Most traditional agencies are not aligned with the brands they manage.

“Traditional agencies charge huge fixed retainers and nothing is tied to performance which misaligns incentives from day one and leads to mediocrity.

We operate more like a partner; your Growth Director, who manages your account, will get paid more as the account scales as this aligns incentives and ensures everyone is rowing the boat in the same direction.

We also made a decision to only work with highly scalable brands, simply put if we are willing to put out an offer to you we believe your business is missing it’s full potential and can scale.

Because we have A+ talent, over 100+ brands, and all of those brands are growing, we share key insights across businesses; strategies, tactics, frameworks, and of creative templates are internally shared to maximize results."

Reason #3

We Have a Systematic Process To Scale Your Ads, No Guesswork

  • Most brands can make their ads profitable at low spend but as soon as they hit the gas and try to scale their ROAS falls off the edge of a cliff and they find themselves in a negative cashflow position when trying to acquire new customers from cold audiences.
  • We’ve developed a systematic approach to scaling ads, The M4 Method. The M4 Method is responsible for over 3 Billion in sales to date (yes with a “B”) across every category in both ecommerce and lead gen.

“Most E-Commerce brands struggle to scale their Meta ads and ultimately fail NOT because they can’t make their ads profitable initially, but because as soon as they hit the gas and try to scale they hit a breaking point where they cannot SCALE their ads while remaining profitable on the initial sale and as a consequence they end up in a negative cash flow position when trying to acquire new customers which limits the businesses ability to scale quickly and often times leads to stagnation and the death of the business as competitors take over the market”

The M4 Method

Most E-Commerce brands struggle to scale their ads profitably because their campaigns are too broad and too basic to maximize conversions and they don't have a system that is built for scale.

The M4 Method is a comprehensive system for scaling ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) in E-Commerce advertising. The average brand we have implemented this 4-step optimization system for has experienced a 43% increase in ROAS in the first 90 days while scaling their advertising spend by over 55% during this same period.

Inside you'll Learn:
  • The one quick (but not simple) adjustment you can make to your ad spend that can improve your ROAS by 20% in under 24 hours.
  • The exact ad campaign structure we use to manage over 100+ E-Commerce clients and how you can use this system to find your best creatives WITHOUT wasting money on "Testing". 
  • Why you need to move away from the "Highest Volume" campaign objective and why you need to adopt "Cost Caps" to hit your targets and avoid overspending.
