5 LAYERS

  1. YOUR AD STACK

    6 platforms

    One score. Weighted across everything you run.

    Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn Ads, TikTok Ads, CRM, and Shopify. We weight each platform by how much it typically drives revenue. Skip a platform and the meter renormalizes. No penalty for what you don't run.

  2. CONVERSION SIGNAL LAYER

    5 checkpoints

    What the algorithm sees.

    Conversion event hierarchy. Value assignment. Enhanced conversions + Consent Mode v2. Server-side tracking quality. Offline conversion imports (OCI): the GCLID round-trip that turns Google Ads from a B2C tool into a B2B one.

  3. BID STRATEGY FITNESS

    4 checkpoints

    Whether the bidder has enough to optimize against.

    tCPA / tROAS target validity vs. trailing-30-day actuals. Bid strategy maturity (Eligible vs. Learning vs. Limited). Conversion lag accounting: your sales cycle vs. your conversion window. Portfolio bidding structure for accounts with fewer than 50 conversions per campaign per month.

  4. CAMPAIGN STRUCTURE FOR SIGNAL DENSITY

    3 checkpoints

    Whether your structure feeds the bidder or starves it.

    Match-type and keyword consolidation. Audience signals on Performance Max (Customer Match lists, brand exclusion, anti-cannibalization). Asset group structure: separate asset groups per product / ICP / geo, not one bucket per campaign.

  5. ATTRIBUTION & REPORTING

    2 checkpoints

    Whether you're optimizing for the right thing.

    Attribution model: data-driven if volume supports it, position-based as the fallback. Brand vs. non-brand separation so blended CPA stops hiding genuinely terrible acquisition performance.
