Ecommerce Performance Marketing, Run by AI Systems
Most ecommerce agencies charge a retainer to run campaigns a junior copied from last quarter. NoFluff builds AI-run performance systems — auto-bidding, daily creative testing, and retention flows — that grow ROAS while cutting the agency tax. Deployed in weeks, reporting you can actually read.
ROAS-first, not retainer-first
We optimise for return on ad spend and contribution margin, not billable hours. If a channel isn't paying, we kill it instead of defending it on a status call.
AI creative testing at volume
Systems generate and rotate dozens of ad variations a week across Meta, Google, and TikTok, so winning angles surface in days instead of months.
Acquisition + retention, one engine
Paid social and Shopping bring buyers in; AI email and SMS flows win the second and third order. Most agencies only do half and call it growth.
Founder-led, transparent attribution
You scope with the founder, and every dollar of spend maps to revenue in a dashboard you own — no vanity-metric decks.
What an AI-run ecommerce performance marketing system actually does
Acquisition: paid social (Meta, Instagram, TikTok), Google Shopping and Performance Max, and intent search — with AI auto-bidding that reallocates budget to the best-performing audiences daily. Creative: AI generates and rotates ad variations at volume, so you test 30+ concepts a month instead of 3, and winning angles compound. Retention: email and SMS flows via Klaviyo and Postscript (welcome, abandoned cart, post-purchase, win-back) that recover 10-20% of lost revenue without a single manual send. Attribution: a clean, blended view of ROAS and contribution margin across channels, so spend decisions are made on profit, not platform-reported fantasy numbers.
Why most ecommerce marketing agencies underperform
The retainer model rewards activity, not outcomes, so you pay for hours, status calls, and slide decks while the actual campaigns run on autopilot a junior set up months ago. Creative testing is slow because every variation is hand-made. Retention gets ignored because it isn't where the agency makes its margin. And reporting is built to look impressive, not to be acted on. NoFluff inverts all four: systems do the repetitive work at volume, retention is treated as half the growth, and you get profit-level reporting instead of impressions and reach.
How NoFluff ecommerce engagements work
Free audit (30-min, founder-led): we review your store, ad accounts, and retention setup and identify the 2-3 highest-leverage fixes. Pilot (2-3 weeks, $500-$1,500): we rebuild one channel end-to-end — usually paid social or abandoned-cart recovery — and prove the lift. Full system (4-6 weeks, $2,000-$6,000 setup): acquisition, retention, and attribution running together. Ongoing management: $500-$2,500/month depending on ad spend and channel count, plus your media budget. Global payment via Stripe, Wise, or ACH. No lock-ins, transparent reporting, kill it anytime.
Common Questions
FAQ
We run performance marketing as AI-driven systems, not billable headcount. Auto-bidding reallocates budget daily, AI tests creative at volume, and retention flows run without manual sends — so you pay for outcomes (ROAS, contribution margin) instead of hours. You also get founder-led scoping and a dashboard that ties every dollar of spend to revenue.
Meta (Facebook + Instagram), Google Ads (Search, Shopping, Performance Max), TikTok, and where it fits, Amazon Ads. On the store and retention side: Shopify, WooCommerce, Klaviyo, Postscript, and Recharge. We plug into your existing stack rather than forcing a migration.
Pilot: $500-$1,500 for 2-3 weeks to prove one channel. Full setup: $2,000-$6,000. Ongoing management: $500-$2,500/month plus your media spend. We usually recommend a minimum ad budget of $3,000-$5,000/month for paid social so the AI has enough signal to optimise fast.
Retention flows (abandoned cart, post-purchase) often recover revenue within the first 2-3 weeks. Paid acquisition takes 3-6 weeks to move past the learning phase and stabilise ROAS. Profit-level improvement is usually clear by month 2, once creative testing has surfaced winning angles.
