ALLIANCEBRIDGE

For brands

Proven ad talent that gets paid when you profit.

We match brands spending [$20,000]+/month with vetted media buyers who earn from your net profit, not just your spend. You get senior expertise and aligned incentives, and we handle the contracts and protection around it.

The problem

Paid media has an incentive problem.

Most brands have been burned at least once. Not because good media buyers don't exist, but because the way they're hired and paid rewards the wrong things.

Unreliable freelancers

Impressive profiles, unverifiable results. You find out they can't scale after they've spent the budget, and then you start the search again.

Wasted ad spend

Campaigns optimised for vanity ROAS instead of real profit. Revenue goes up, margins go down, and nobody is accountable for the difference.

Agencies paid regardless

Retainers and percentage-of-spend fees reward agencies for spending more, not for making you more. Their risk is zero. Yours isn't.

Our solution

Vetted experts whose earnings depend on your profit.

Alliance Bridge sits between you and the talent. We vet the experts, structure a performance-based contract, reconcile the numbers every month and make sure everyone is paid fairly.

  • Only experts with verified results at scale make our network
  • Compensation tied to net profit, calculated on a formula you agree upfront
  • Campaigns run in your ad accounts, so you keep full ownership of data and assets
  • Mutual NDAs signed before any numbers are shared
  • A dedicated account manager and a monthly reconciled report
  • If the fit isn't right, we help you transition to a new expert

You only pay big when you win big

A fee for the work. A share of the upside. Nothing for vanity metrics.

Your expert earns a modest percentage of the budget they manage, plus a share of the net profit their campaigns generate. A flat month means a small bill. A great month means a bigger bill, and a much bigger profit for you.

Ad spend fee

of the monthly ad budget managed. It rewards the expertise and hours it takes to run spend responsibly.

Profit commission

of the net profit the campaigns generate. It only pays out when the brand actually makes money.

The result

Aligned incentives

The more profitable the campaigns, the more the expert earns. Brands only pay big when they win big.

Profit, properly defined

Revenue minus ad spend, COGS, shipping and fees, written into the contract before launch.

No profit, no commission

If a month isn't profitable, you pay only the ad spend fee. No retainers, no set-up charges.

One-time matching fee

[$X one-time], charged only once you accept a match.Example rate

Our vetting process

Most applicants don't make it. That's the point.

Before an expert is introduced to any brand, they pass four stages of verification. You interview a shortlist that has already been filtered for skill, integrity and fit.

  1. 01

    Proof of results

    Verified screenshots or read-only access showing sustained results at [$50,000]+/month in spend.

  2. 02

    Live account audit

    A recorded walkthrough of real accounts: structure, testing cadence, creative strategy and how they read the data.

  3. 03

    Strategy case exercise

    A realistic brief based on a brand like yours. We assess how they think about profit, not just performance.

  4. 04

    References and fit

    Conversations with previous brands, plus a check on communication, reliability and availability.

Brand FAQ

Questions brands ask us.

How is profit calculated and verified?

Net profit is the revenue attributable to the managed campaigns, minus ad spend, cost of goods sold, shipping and fulfilment, and payment and platform fees. The exact formula is written into the contract before launch. We track it through shared dashboards (ad platforms plus your store or analytics data) and reconcile it in a monthly report that both sides sign off before any commission is invoiced.

What happens if campaigns aren't profitable?

If a month produces no net profit, no profit commission is due. The expert still earns the ad spend fee for managing the budget. Every engagement starts with a trial period and clear targets, and your account manager reviews performance with both sides. If the fit isn't right, we help you part ways cleanly and can introduce a different expert.

Who owns the ad accounts and data?

You do. Campaigns run inside your own ad accounts, pixels and analytics, and experts are granted partner or user access. All creatives, audiences and data produced during the engagement remain the brand's property, and access is removed when an engagement ends.

Is there a minimum ad budget?

We work with brands spending [$20,000]/month or more on paid media. Below that level, a performance-based partnership rarely makes sense for either side. If you're close, get in touch anyway and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help.

How long does matching take?

Most brands receive a shortlist within [7–14 days] of their discovery call. Niche platforms, specific languages or very large budgets can take a little longer, and we'll tell you upfront.

Is everything confidential?

Yes. Mutual NDAs are signed before any account access or sensitive numbers are shared. We never disclose a brand's identity, spend or results to anyone, including other experts or brands, without written permission.

Can we work with more than one expert?

Yes. Many brands pair a Meta specialist with a Google or TikTok expert. Each engagement is contracted separately so every expert is measured on the channels they control.
