Media buying · User acquisition

Make growth look like magic.

The right media. The right message. The right funnel. All connected, tested and optimized to turn paid traffic into valuable users.

Magic Ball brings Native, Social and In-App Programmatic together with the creative, landing pages and funnels needed to turn attention into acquisition.

Native Social In-app
What we do

Everything between the click and the customer.

A campaign has three moving parts. Most agencies own one of them and wait on somebody else for the other two. Here they all are.

1

The ad

Concepts, hooks and formats made here and tested against live traffic — not ordered from a queue and delivered next week.

2

Where it lands

Pre-landers, playables and landing pages built for the traffic source they'll meet, because the page decides what the click was worth.

The buying

The daily part. Bids, placements, budgets and creative rotation moved every day rather than reviewed every month.

Ads and pages, built in the same room.

Channels

Three channels. Three different jobs.

Different users, different intent, different creative, different maths. Treating them the same is the most expensive assumption in performance marketing.

Native

Users who weren't looking for you yet. The ad, the pre-lander and the offer have to carry them the whole way, so we build all three together.

Social

The creative is the targeting. We test hooks and concepts at volume, because the feed decides in under a second and it isn't sentimental.

In-app programmatic

Users already holding a phone and already playing something. Bid strategy and creative refresh move this one, not targeting settings.

Verticals & markets

Who we do it for, and where.

Every client gets a media buyer and an account manager who already know the category — because what separates a good month from a bad one is usually specific to the vertical, not general to media buying.

iGaming

Real-money casino and sportsbook, judged on deposits and player value.

Sweepstakes

Social casino, where a first coin purchase converts and the second one is the business.

E-commerce

Consumer brands where the product page is the funnel and margin sets the ceiling.

And more

Performance marketers first. A product, an audience and a number to optimize is enough.

Our home ground.

Real-money casino and social casino look alike from the outside and behave nothing alike underneath.

One is settled by deposits and what a player is worth six months later. The other by a first coin purchase, and whether anyone comes back for a second. Same artwork, same wheel, completely different funnel and completely different maths.

We buy for both and build the funnels for both — which mostly means we already know where each one leaks, and what to change first.

We don't optimize for clicks. We optimize for players.

Who we are
20Years inside user acquisition

We've spent two decades across performance marketing — traffic, platforms, creative, funnels and growth — through the rise of native, the tightening of paid social, and every platform change that turned a reliable channel unreliable overnight.

The one thing that never changed is that good media buying is an obsession with the numbers. So that is what we hire for, and it is why the people you brief are the people inside the accounts: you talk to whoever is making the decisions, not to somebody relaying them.

Let's talk

Need more users? Let's talk about getting them.

Starting from nothing, fixing something that isn't paying, hunting for your next source of scale, or just short of people who know how to buy — tell us what you're working on and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help.
