03 / Diagnosis

Performance problems rarely live in one campaign setting.

Good optimization means finding the constraint across the full acquisition system—not simply changing a bid.

01

Search Intent

Finding where spend is leaking into poor-quality searches, competitors, informational traffic, and irrelevant services.

02

Account Structure

Removing fragmentation, duplication, redundant keywords, and structural conflicts.

03

Conversion Tracking

Fixing missing, duplicated, or misleading conversion signals across advertising and analytics platforms.

04

Landing Pages

Improving message match, service alignment, and conversion friction.

05

Creative Strategy

Building testing systems around audience pain points, offers, placement, and format.

06

Bidding & Budgets

Matching bidding strategy and allocation to conversion maturity and economics.

07

Lead Quality

Optimizing toward prospects the business actually wants rather than maximizing raw platform conversion counts.

08

Scaling

Increasing investment once the acquisition system demonstrates repeatable economics.

04 / Case studies

Different businesses.
Same discipline.

Selected work across SaaS, eCommerce, and app acquisition. Client identities remain confidential.

08 / About

Nine years in performance marketing. Still hands-on.

I'm Jahangir Ahmed, a performance marketer specializing in paid acquisition, campaign optimization, and conversion strategy.

Over 9+ years, I've managed more than $5M in advertising spend across U.S. and international businesses, from focused local-service campaigns to eCommerce operations spending tens of thousands of dollars per day.

My work spans agencies, SaaS, eCommerce, financial services, real estate, home services, and multi-account client portfolios.

The common thread is simple: understand what the business actually needs from paid media, identify where performance is breaking down, and fix the acquisition system rather than chasing surface-level metrics.

My primary market experience is with U.S. businesses, alongside additional work across MENA and international markets.

A strong fit when paid media needs more than routine management.

  • Want stronger performance and experienced ownership

Whether you're trying to rescue an underperforming account, clean up years of campaign clutter, or scale something that's already working, I focus on finding the real constraint.
