Profit Geeks

Facebook Ads agency · Sydney · DTC and B2B

A Sydney Facebook Ads agency that proves the number before it scales the spend.

Sydney runs the most contested paid-acquisition market in the country, and that contest hides inside the reporting. The Meta-attributed ROAS most Sydney accounts run on overstates real revenue by 14 to 38 percent. We rebuild Meta CAPI on your domain, deduplicate against the CRM, and only then is scaling spend a sensible conversation.

Context

Why Sydney brands come to us for Facebook Ads work.

Sydney has more bidders fighting for the same audiences than any other Australian market, which means CPMs run high and every measurement error costs more here than it would in a quieter city. The operators we meet are usually spending $40K to $250K a month on Meta, with an in-house performance hire or two, and the Meta dashboard has quietly stopped agreeing with the CRM.

DTC brands tend to arrive after a plateau: scaling spend no longer moves real revenue, only reported ROAS. B2B and high-consideration services arrive with the opposite shape, where the click works but pipeline and closed-won never make it back to Meta's optimiser, so the algorithm is training on the wrong signal.

In both cases the constraint is not the creative or the audience. It is that Meta CAPI was never built properly, so the platform and the optimiser are working from numbers that do not survive contact with finance.

Deliverables

What we actually deliver on Facebook Ads engagements.

  • 01

    Server-side Meta CAPI on your own domain with hashed email, phone, FBP, FBC, IP, and order ID on every event. Event Match Quality lifted out of the typical 3-5 band into 7.0 to 8.5 over six to eight weeks.

  • 02

    Browser pixel and CAPI deduplication via stable event IDs, so a single purchase stops being counted twice and inflating the reported return.

  • 03

    Offline conversion uploads from your CRM (Klaviyo, Shopify, HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive) so closed pipeline and post-call revenue are fed back to Meta's optimiser, not lost after the form fill.

  • 04

    Consent banner reconfigured against AU and EU norms so server-side calls are correctly classified under marketing consent and survive an audit.

  • 05

    Reconciliation layer in Looker Studio: Meta-reported revenue against CRM and bank-anchored revenue, monitored monthly. The variance is the signal that tells us whether the rebuild is holding.

Side by side

How this differs from a typical Sydney Facebook Ads agency.

Typical FB Ads agency

  • Optimises against platform ROAS
  • Reports straight from Meta Business Suite
  • Browser-side pixel, no CAPI or partial CAPI
  • Creative-first, measurement-second
  • Open-ended retainer, no exit

Profit Geeks

  • Optimises against contribution-margin ROAS
  • Reports reconciled to CRM and bank-anchored revenue
  • Server-side CAPI on your domain, fully deduplicated
  • Measurement-first; creative work happens on reliable signal
  • Fixed-scope rebuild that ends in a documented handover

Who this is for

  • Sydney or NSW operator running Meta Ads at $20K+ monthly spend
  • Meta-attributed ROAS that no longer matches the CRM or the bank
  • DTC ecommerce, lead-gen services, or B2B scaling on paid acquisition
  • Have an in-house performance person or media buyer to operate the rebuilt setup

Who it isn't

  • Looking for a Sydney agency purely to run Meta accounts day-to-day
  • Sub-$2M revenue trying to scale Meta before the offer is proven
  • Need a creative refresh rather than a measurement rebuild
  • Already running clean server-side Meta CAPI with EMQ above 7.0

Proof, with the working shown

We'd rather show you the maths than the buzzwords.

Profit Geeks rebuilt our whole sales engine, and not just the ad accounts. They went after the systems sitting behind them too. Sales are up 140% and we've pushed past $25M. Honestly the bit I didn't see coming was the operation running leaner than it did back when we were half the size.
Founder, health & safety equipment brandSales +140%, past $25M
We were quietly bleeding about a thousand dollars a week and had no idea why. They found the leaks, sorted out the measurement and the offer, and now we'll do more than $10K in a single day. Same product. Completely different business.
Founder, oral care brand−$1K/week → $10K+/day
We went from scraping together two installs a week to running four crews and fifteen-plus jobs a week, north of $10M turnover. The clever bit was they tied the scaling to what we could actually deliver, so growth never broke the operation. Booked jobs, not vanity leads.
Owner, solar installation company2 → 15+ jobs/week, $10M+ turnover
After iOS, our Meta numbers stopped matching the bank, and we'd basically been writing the gap off as “just tracking.” Profit Geeks rebuilt our measurement server-side and reconciled it straight back to the P&L. Turned out about $1.42M of ad spend in year one had been working all along. They're the first team that showed me the maths instead of a dashboard.
Founder, DTC apparel brand, Melbourne$1.42M ad spend recovered, year one
We didn’t spend a dollar more on ads. What they did was fix how we counted a booked job versus a platform “conversion,” cut the wasted spend, and by week twelve our blended ROAS had more than tripled. Revenue went from $4.8M to $9.1M. Same senior bloke on every call too. No juniors, no relay race.

Reasonable questions

What you're probably thinking.

01

We've been burned by an agency before.

Most of our intake has. The difference is structural. A senior operator runs your account, not a junior hidden behind a dashboard, and you leave the first call with written findings you own even if we never work together. No relay race, no account manager translating between you and the people doing the work.

02

How do I know it'll actually work for my business?

You don't yet, and neither do we until we've seen your numbers. That's why the first step is a diagnostic, not a contract. We've documented this in DTC and home services (the case studies show the full working) and run the same playbook in professional services. If the maths isn't there for you, we'll tell you on the call.

03

What if there's nothing worth fixing?

Then you've spent thirty minutes and walked away with a second opinion that cost you nothing. We'd rather say no than take on an engagement we can't earn, so we turn away intake that isn't a fit. There's no pitch and no follow-up sales sequence.

04

What does it cost, and what am I signing up for?

One quarterly engagement fee. No per-channel markup, no retainer fluff. The same senior operators handle measurement, media and margin, and scaling is tied to your contribution margin, so spend only climbs when the numbers say it's working. The call is where we scope what that looks like for you.

Frequently asked

What operators ask before booking the call.

Do you run day-to-day Facebook Ads buying for Sydney clients?

Yes, inside engagements where we also own the measurement underneath. The same senior operators who rebuild Meta CAPI run the day-to-day Meta buying against it. We refuse to run media on broken data, and we refuse to hand the buying to an agency that can't see contribution margin. Once the engagement closes, your in-house team operates the documented playbook.

What does a Meta CAPI rebuild typically recover?

Eight to 18 percent of attributable revenue in year one for most Sydney operators we work with. The recovery comes from server-side bypass of ad-blockers and ITP, the EMQ lift on Meta's side, and offline conversion uploads from the CRM.

Are you based in Sydney?

Yes. Sydney is our HQ, with a second office in Hamilton, Brisbane. On-site working sessions across the Sydney CBD, North Shore, and the inner west are straightforward to schedule, and most diagnostic work happens remotely against your live data.

How long does a Meta CAPI rebuild take?

Six to ten weeks from kickoff to live. Week one is diagnostic, weeks two to four are the staging build, week five is the cutover with old and new running in parallel, and weeks six to ten are stabilisation and the reporting handover.

How much does it cost?

We don't put a price on the website. A standalone Attribution Fix that includes the Meta CAPI rebuild is one option; the full PROFIT framework, which adds the other five pillars on top of the Meta work, is the other. Both are fixed-scope, not retainer. We tailor the scope to your account and your goals on the strategy call, then you get the fixed number in a written proposal.

Limited engagement intake. We talk to operators, not buyers.

If you're a Sydney operator running Meta Ads at meaningful spend and the reports have stopped reconciling, the next step is a 30-minute strategy session. Bring a Meta dashboard, the matching CRM revenue, and one number you would not want to defend in a finance meeting.
