How Growth-Share + Deferred-Payment Performance Marketing Works

Pricing formula: Reduced retainer (Rs 15K-25K) + deferred payment tied to milestones OR small equity stake. Best for: Early-stage brands with strong product but limited cash — case-by-case only.

Who Should Choose This Model

Early-stage brands with strong product but limited cash — case-by-case only. Also good if you want variable-cost pricing linked to outcomes rather than a fixed monthly fee.

Who Should NOT Choose This

If your ad spend is under Rs 2 lakh/month, the fixed retainer is usually more economical. If you can't share detailed attribution data (Meta CAPI + offline conversions), performance-linked models lose accuracy.

How It Compares to Retainer

Retainer (Rs 25K-55K/mo) = predictable cost, best under Rs 3L ad spend. Performance-linked = variable cost, best over Rs 3L ad spend + measurable outcomes.

Contract Terms

6-month MSA with month-3 exit option. Ad spend passes through at zero markup regardless of pricing model. 100% client-owned IP + creative + ad accounts. 30-day notice period.
