Growth, architected.

The four-pillar system behind every brand we work with, engineered to turn ad spend into predictable, profitable revenue.

01

Growth strategy

Fractional CMO services and the strategic thinking layer most brands are missing. We find the gaps in your marketing calendar for the year and work with your team to fill them — turning seasonal peaks, launches, and cultural tentpoles into revenue events.
02

Financial clarity

Proprietary forecasting tools that model your revenue before you spend. Daily spend-to-revenue tracking, cohort-based CAC modeling, and scenario planning, so you know exactly what scaling looks like before you commit the budget.
03

Media buying

As a verified Meta Business Partner we have direct access to platform reps, betas, and support most agencies never see. Paired with a launch system built for speed, new creative goes live in hours, not weeks. $320M+ in spend across Meta, Google, and TikTok, with daily optimization built around your unit economics.
04

Creative operations

Algorithms reward creative volume and diversity, and most brands can't keep up. We help you understand your volume requirements, connect you to production partners, and advise on what to shoot and who to hire. More concepts, faster iterations, fewer blind spots.

Launching & scaling the brand from the ground up

We took Dandy Del Mar from inception to an established and reputable brand by implementing our Brand Launchpad Playbook. We built the full paid media operation from scratch: account architecture, extensive creative strategy and testing, and a stable financial foundation.

Reversing a revenue decline into growth

After a challenging year with stalled growth, the brand needed a new playbook. We rebuilt creative operations for higher volume and diversity, redesigned the offer strategy to lift AOV, improved Meta ROAS, and brought their contribution margin into the positive.

Turning the slow season into a growth engine

When most brands pull back during their off-season, we leaned in. A giveaway-focused acquisition strategy flooded the top of funnel with new customers, driving new customer revenue growth and lifting overall efficiency — proving the right offer strategy can rewrite a brand's seasonal playbook.

From offseason nightmare to profitable new customer cohorts

We knew we needed to tackle a new customer problem during the offseason. We leaned in on bundles, creative diversity, restructuring and merchandising ad accounts, and reworking their marketing calendar to support offseason growth.

Scaling high-AOV paid media from the ground up

Running high-ticket ($1,000+ AOV) products on Meta is a difficult game. We implemented our high-AOV playbook — turning low volume, long purchase cycles, and algorithm instability into a growth engine. We restructured ad accounts, redefined creative strategy, and installed cross-channel measurement.

05 · A message from the founder
Jordan Jastro, founder of Marea
Jordan Jastro
Founder · Meta Partner
Newport Beach, CA

We started Marea because we kept seeing the same problem: talented ecommerce teams spending more every month with less and less clarity about what was actually working. Not a talent problem — a decision-making problem.

So we built the company around answering that question well. Today we lead a team of strategists, media buyers, and analysts who work alongside our clients' in-house teams. Our edge is creative analytics: we connect every concept, hook, and asset back to spend, contribution margin, and forecast, so scaling decisions come from evidence instead of instinct.

06 · The name

Why Marea.

marea ma · rè · a Noun · Italian tide

A tide is one of the most predictable things about the ocean. It runs on a schedule and it can be charted years ahead. High water and low water, on time, without fail.

It is also the ocean — fluid, unruly, and always using the element of surprise.

We live in exactly that intersection. The numbers — forecasts, margins, cohorts, unit economics — are a predictable system. But marketing isn't. It's fluid, flexible, and creative. While most agencies pick a side, we work where the two meet. Because that's where true scale is unlocked.
