What I Do

Challenge acquisition campaigns for funded trader programmes.

Three disciplines specific to prop firm paid acquisition — built around the funded trader decision journey, evolving platform policies for prop firm advertising, and the commercial attribution that funded trader economics require.

01

Challenge Acquisition Campaign Architecture

Challenge page campaigns require audience targeting built around trader intent signals — not generic financial services audiences. We build the campaign architecture around the funded trader acquisition funnel: awareness to challenge page to purchase, with audience segmentation that identifies traders at the consideration stage across Meta, Google, and TikTok.

02

Platform Policy Compliance for Prop Firms

Meta, Google, and TikTok have evolving and inconsistently enforced policies for prop firm advertising that differ from standard financial services advertising requirements. Campaign architecture accounts for current platform policy interpretation for funded trading programmes — avoiding the policy violations that cause account-level disruption and cost prop firms significant acquisition time and budget.

03

Challenge-to-Funded Attribution

The commercial metrics that matter for prop firm paid acquisition are challenge purchase rate and funded trader conversion rate — not registration volume. We build the attribution framework that connects ad spend to challenge purchases and funded trader outcomes, enabling the campaign optimisation and budget allocation decisions that challenge unit economics actually require.

Why Specialist

What a generic paid agency misses for prop firms.

Generic paid agencies have never run challenge acquisition campaigns. The conversion funnel, the platform policy landscape, and the commercial attribution requirements are all unique to this vertical — and the consequences of applying generic methodology are measurable in wasted budget and account disruptions.

  • Generic agencies have never run challenge acquisition campaigns. The funded trader decision journey — from awareness through challenge evaluation to purchase — is unique. Campaign architecture built around generic financial services audience targeting doesn't address the trader intent signals that drive challenge purchase conversion.
  • Prop firm advertising platform policies are evolving and inconsistently enforced. Generic agencies build campaigns that work until they don't. Specialist knowledge of current policy interpretation for funded trading programmes prevents the account-level disruptions that cost prop firms significant paid acquisition time and budget.
  • Generic agencies report cost per registration. For prop firms, the only metric that matters is cost per challenge purchase and funded trader conversion rate. We build attribution around the commercial outcomes that determine whether paid acquisition is sustainable at the specific challenge product's unit economics.
  • Challenge offer economics determine sustainable CPA. Challenge fee, funded allocation, profit split, and reset rate create a specific unit economics model that determines what CPA is commercially viable. Generic agencies build campaigns without understanding the funded trader economics that make paid acquisition sustainable.
