CAMPAIGN SCALE PLANNING
Businesses in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane consistently increase ad budgets before they know which campaigns are genuinely profitable and which are marginal. Ignited Nepal establishes the preconditions — verified CAC, campaign profitability segmentation, and spend-tier guardrails — so your next budget increase compounds returns instead of diluting them.

/ This is for you if
Profile 1 — The Australian business spending $5K–$30K/month that wants to scale further. You're running paid search and social, you're acquiring customers, and the accounts are broadly performing. But you haven't established a verified CAC baseline or segmented campaigns by profitability. Before you push toward $50K or $100K/month, you need to know what you're actually scaling — and whether the economics will hold at higher spend.
Profile 2 — The e-commerce brand that has tried scaling before and seen ROAS compress. You pushed spend up, ROAS dropped, and you pulled back. That pattern almost always means the economic foundation wasn't established before the increase. The CPCs in Australia are among the highest in the Asia-Pacific region, and scaling without spend-tier gates is expensive to correct. This engagement audits the foundation and builds the structure for the next attempt.
Profile 3 — The marketing director who needs defensible numbers for the CFO. You're accountable for paid acquisition ROI and leadership is asking for a scaling plan with financial justification. Campaign Scale Planning gives you the attribution model, segmentation analysis, and tiered roadmap to present a spend increase as an engineered decision rather than an optimistic projection.
/ What's broken
Australian CPCs on Google Search are high relative to most markets, and Meta CPMs in major cities have increased significantly over the past two years. Scaling on unverified economics in this environment is expensive — a ROAS decline at $30K/month costs substantially more to recover from than the same decline at $10K/month. The audit prevents that scenario.
Budget increases in Australian accounts are often approved based on a strong previous month rather than on verified ROAS or CAC thresholds. When performance dips — seasonally, due to auction pressure, or because a creative is fatiguing — there is no gate to prevent the increase from continuing. Losses accumulate faster than they are noticed.
Most Australian e-commerce and lead-gen accounts are running on last-click or platform-native attribution, which understates the role of upper-funnel channels and overstates the contribution of branded search. When scaling decisions are made on these numbers, branded and retargeting campaigns receive more budget and prospecting campaigns receive less — the opposite of what drives sustainable growth.
An Australian retail brand acquiring customers at a $40 CAC may appear to be performing well at $10K/month. At $50K/month, that same $40 CAC may only be achievable for low-margin product lines while high-margin segments are underserved. Without LTV and margin segmentation, the budget increase goes to volume rather than to value.
/ What we engineer
Each workstream is built by the team that audits it, and wired into the rest of your growth system.
We establish your actual cost per acquisition and return on ad spend across every active campaign, verified against your CRM, Shopify, or sales data — not the platform-reported figures. For Australian accounts, we account for GST in revenue attribution and distinguish between new customer CAC and blended CAC, which are often conflated in reporting.
We segment campaigns into three tiers: those with clear headroom for scaling, those that are marginal and require structural fixes before more spend, and those that should be paused or restructured. For businesses operating across Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, we also flag whether geographic targeting is affecting profitability — city-level CPCs vary meaningfully.
The roadmap defines a sequence of budget increases from your current $5K–$30K/month baseline toward $50K, $100K, and beyond AUD, with specific ROAS and CAC thresholds that must be cleared before each tier is activated. Gates are set based on your actual baseline, not industry benchmarks.
The allocation model distributes incremental budget across channels and campaigns based on the profitability segmentation. It accounts for the cost structure of Australian search and social auctions and provides a reallocation framework for when campaigns underperform during a scaling phase.
For Australian businesses approaching saturation on primary channels, the diversification plan identifies the next channel to test — YouTube, programmatic, TikTok, or others — with a test budget, measurement structure, and integration point with existing attribution.

/ Common questions
Straight answers on scope, timelines and cost. Anything else, ask us directly.
Ask us directlyThe engagement is designed for businesses spending $5K–$30K/month AUD who are planning to scale. At lower spend levels, the incremental value of the audit may not justify the engagement; above $30K/month, the audit is almost always warranted before any further increase.
The scale planning audit and roadmap are strategic deliverables that sit above day-to-day campaign management. They are designed to be handed to an existing management team — or an agency — as the framework for scaling decisions. Most clients run this audit alongside their existing management without conflict.
Australian search and social CPCs are among the highest in the region and are factored into both the baseline audit and the budget allocation model. The spend-tier gates are calibrated to your actual market economics, not global benchmarks, which would understate the CPC reality in Sydney or Melbourne.
GST is excluded from revenue figures used in ROAS calculations — platform-reported revenue often includes tax and inflates the stated return. We reconcile against your net revenue figures. If your analytics is tracking GST-inclusive revenue, we correct this during the baseline audit.
The recommendation is based on verified acquisition economics, not platform-reported metrics. If the audit shows a campaign is marginal or unprofitable at verified CAC, that finding is documented and explained. Whether to act on it is your decision — but the data will be clear.
Start here
Australian CPCs and CPMs are high, and scaling mistakes in this market cost proportionally more to reverse. Businesses that tried to scale and pulled back — in Sydney, Melbourne, or Brisbane — almost always did so because the economic foundation wasn't in place. Campaign Scale Planning builds that foundation before the budget increases. If you're spending $5K–$30K/month AUD and want a structured path to $50K or beyond, start with the audit.
