About Kindling

We make paid social work for consumer brands: the creative, the media buying, and the numbers that tell you whether either of them worked.

Creative that earns its place in the feed

Most ads fail in the first three seconds. We shoot in volume, test every new frame against the one currently working, and keep only the ones that hold attention and sell.

What we do

One team for the creative, the media and the numbers

We plan the campaigns, shoot the assets, buy the media, and report every Monday in language you can act on.

Paid social

Media buying across feed and short-form, managed daily against a target return

Creative production

Studio and on-location shoots that feed the ad account every month

Creator content

Briefed, cast and edited creator work that reads native, not borrowed

Lifecycle email

Welcome, browse and win-back flows that pick up the traffic paid social sends
How it works

A monthly rhythm that keeps new creative in the account and stops you guessing which ad did the work.

“Kindling shot ninety variants in our first quarter and found three that still carry the account a year later.”
Nadia Brandt
Founder, Rowe & Ash
“They make the ads and they buy the media, so nobody gets to blame the other half. That alone was worth the move.”
Tom Ashcombe
Marketing director, Petal Drinks
“Our cost per order fell by a third in four months and, more usefully, we understood why it fell.”
Mei Lockhart
Head of growth, Fernhill Foods
“The Monday report is one page. It tells us what to spend on and what to stop. We had never had that before.”
Owen Castellan
Founder, Brightside Bikes
“They cast and edited forty creator videos without us chasing anybody. The whole thing ran quietly in the background.”
Priya Navarro
Brand lead, Lune Candles
“We came for the ads and stayed for the email flows, which now do about a quarter of the revenue.”

Owner, Harrow Pet Co
