Not Every Business Is a Fit for Performance Marketing—Is Yours?

Most businesses know they need marketing to grow, but too many have been burned by agencies that charge big retainers with little to show for it. If you're tired of paying for activity instead of measurable revenue, you might be ready for a performance-based marketing partnership.

But not every business is a fit for this model. Performance marketing works best for companies that already have a solid foundation and are ready to scale.

Let’s break down who benefits most.

 


 

🎯 What Businesses Are the Best Fit for Performance-Based Marketing?

The companies that thrive with a revenue-share model have one thing in common: they are established, successful businesses looking to optimize and scale.

Here’s what makes an ideal fit:

🔥 Businesses Generating $5M+ in Annual Revenue

✔️ Already bringing in steady revenue but looking for more scalable, cost-efficient growth.
✔️ Want marketing to directly contribute to sales and revenue, not just brand awareness.
✔️ Ready to invest in a growth strategy that is performance-driven, not fee-based.


 

 

🏗️ B2B Service Providers & High-Ticket Businesses

✔️ Depend on lead generation and need a consistent pipeline of qualified prospects.
✔️ Already have a sales team in place to close deals but struggle with steady lead flow.
✔️ Want data-driven marketing strategies that improve conversion rates and revenue.

💡 Best for: Home services, manufacturing, professional services, law firms, and agencies.


 

🛍️ E-Commerce & DTC Brands with Proven Sales

✔️ Have an established customer base and are looking to scale profitably.
✔️ Want to optimize paid media, improve retention, and lower customer acquisition costs (CAC).
✔️ Need a multi-channel strategy that balances ads, SEO, and lifecycle marketing.

💡 Best for: Brands with $5M+ in annual sales that are struggling to scale ad spend profitably.

 


 

💻 SaaS & B2B Tech Companies

✔️ Have a working product and sales process but need more qualified leads and demos.
✔️ Want to lower cost per acquisition while increasing customer lifetime value (LTV).
✔️ Need a marketing partner that focuses on growth efficiency, not just lead volume.

💡 Best for: Mid-market and enterprise SaaS companies with at least $10M in ARR.

 


 

🚫 What Businesses Are NOT a Good Fit?

Performance marketing is not for every business.

🚫 Startups Without Product-Market Fit – If you’re still validating your offer, you need investment, not a revenue-share partner.

🚫 Companies Focused Only on Brand Awareness – If your goal is visibility, not conversions, this model won’t work.

🚫 Businesses Without a Sales Process – If you don’t have a way to close leads, more marketing won’t fix the issue.

 


 

🎒 Why Businesses Are Switching to Performance Partnerships

Performance-Driven – No retainers, no wasted budget—you only pay for revenue.
Aligned Incentives – When you grow, we grow—we’re a partner, not a vendor.
Scalable Growth – The better the results, the harder we work to scale them.
No Upfront Costs – You’re not stuck paying for marketing that doesn’t deliver.

🏕️ The Truth About Performance-Based Marketing: Why Revenue-Share Partnerships Are Changing the Game

Tired of Paying for Marketing That Doesn’t Work? You’re Not Alone.

Imagine this: You’re deep in the Marketing Wilderness, trekking through unknown territory. You’ve hired a marketing guide (agency) who promised to take you to the Summit of Success—but halfway up the mountain, they vanish, leaving you lost, frustrated, and staring at an invoice for services that didn’t move the needle.

Sound familiar?

At Bantam Digital, we don’t believe in getting paid for the journey—we get paid for getting you to the summit. If we don’t help you grow, we don’t get paid. Simple.

🔥 Welcome to Performance-Based Marketing—the only trail worth hiking.

 


 

🌲 Why Most Businesses Are Done with Traditional Agencies

Most business owners have one thing in common: at some point, they’ve wasted money on marketing that didn’t deliver.

Here’s why:

🐿️ “The Budget Black Hole” – You keep spending, but the only thing growing is your agency’s retainer.

🦊 “The Vanity Metric Mirage” – Agencies focus on clicks, likes, and ‘brand awareness’—but where are the sales?

🦉 “The Strategy Swap” – Every quarter, the agency promises a “new approach” that sounds great but produces the same disappointing results.

🔥 The result? You’re stuck paying for activity, not outcomes.

Tired of Paying for Marketing That Doesn’t Work? You’re Not Alone.

Imagine hiring a hiking guide who charges you thousands of dollars upfront to lead you to the summit. But halfway through the journey, they disappear, leaving you lost, exhausted, and staring at an invoice that keeps growing.

That’s how most businesses feel about traditional marketing agencies—paying for effort, not outcomes.

But what if your guide only got paid when they actually got you to the top?

That’s exactly what a performance-based agency partnership does.

🚀 Welcome to a Better Way to Grow Your Business.

🏕️ What Is a Performance-Based Agency Partnership?

Traditional agencies bill you for hours worked, ad spend managed, and “strategic guidance.” Meanwhile, your pipeline stays empty, and your bank account gets smaller.

A performance-based partnership flips the model. Instead of paying an agency for their time, you only pay when they drive actual revenue for your business.

How It Works:

🌲 No Retainers – Forget paying for “marketing efforts” that don’t convert.

🔥 Revenue-Share Model – The agency earns a percentage of the revenue they help generate.

🦊 Mutual Skin in the Game – If they don’t deliver, they don’t get paid.

💰 Growth-First Approach – Every marketing dollar is optimized for profitability, not vanity metrics.

Sound refreshing? That’s because it is.

🌲 Why Most Marketing Agencies Are Failing You

If you’ve been burned by agencies before, you’re not alone.

Here’s why so many businesses end up frustrated with their marketing partners:

🐿️ “The Budget Black Hole” – You keep paying, but you’re not sure what you’re actually getting.

🦉 “The Clueless Compass” – Agencies track clicks, impressions, and engagement instead of actual revenue.

🐻 “The Retainer Trap” – You’re locked into high monthly fees, no matter how bad the results are.

The result? You’re spending money without seeing growth.

That’s why businesses are switching to performance-based partnerships—because marketing should be about profit, not promises.

🏕️ The Benefits of a Performance-Based Marketing Partner

When you partner with a performance-driven agency, you’re no longer just a client—you’re a business partner.

Here’s why this approach works better than the traditional model:

Aligned Incentives – We grow when you grow. If we don’t drive revenue, we don’t get paid.

No Upfront Costs – Your budget isn’t wasted on empty promises.

Scalable Growth – As your revenue increases, the strategy scales with you.

More Accountability – The agency is directly responsible for real business outcomes.

This isn’t just better marketing—it’s better business.
