Deals we've closed with Revenue Revolution™ System:

This one mistake cost me $750,000 my first two years after founding AdVenture Media ...


Hi, I'm Isaac Rudansky. Let's talk about the least pleasant part of agency life: figuring out how much to charge clients. When I started the agency, I did what everyone was doing and charged clients a flat 10% of ad spend.

I thought charging clients a flat percentage of spend or a fixed retainer was the best approach ... until I realized that it wasn't.

Far from it.

The problem first reared its head when a few prospects asked if we'd work only on performance-based compensation.

In other words, give up our guaranteed retainer entirely, and instead, only get paid when campaign performance exceeded their targets. But what agency wants to get paid on performance only?

You're giving your clients your time and your expertise, and actual performance is often impacted by things way beyond your control.

But clients don't see it that way—they want their agencies to have skin in the game. Clients want to feel that their agencies are accountable.

It got me thinking ...

What if agencies can keep their guaranteed monthly fees while at the same time giving their clients what they want?

It took us two years of testing, consulting with Harvard grads (seriously), and tens of thousands of dollars paid to MBAs who helped developed the solution:

The Revenue Revolution™ System by AdVenture Media

 And now, it's yours for a fraction of the income it's going to generate for you.

Here's how it works:

You offer your client a small discount (5-10%) on your retainer fee. If your typical retainer is $5,000/month, you pitch a $4,500/month fixed fee.

But in exchange for that discount, you get a performance-based bonus. For example, if your client wants to achieve a 250% ROAS from their campaigns, the template is easily customizable to output a bonus payment to your agency in any month where ROAS exceeds 250%. The specific bonus amount is fully customizable in the template itself.

This way, you're still  earning your monthly retainer fee, but your clients are focused on the portion of compensation tied to performance. If you don't hit your bonus, you're still getting paid.

And you know what's crazy?

Once we started rolling out the Revenue Revolution™ System for our clients, our close rates skyrocketed.

We went from closing 15% of our MQLs to nearly 30% of our MQLs.

And you know what's even crazier?

We started retaining our clients for longer.

Fewer clients churned because of poor performance in a given month. Why? Because in their minds, a significant portion of their agency fees were tied to performance. The increased retention rates made up for the small discounted retainer fee tenfold.

I did the math, and by not using the Revenue Revolution™ fee structure we forfeited over $750,000 in profit in just two years.

Since then, we've earned millions in incremental profit directly attributable to these very templates.

 It's an incredible system, and I'm so excited to share them with agencies and freelancers around the world.

I personally guarantee the Revenue Revolution™ System will work for you. If it doesn't, we'll refund your money, no questions asked. 

Upwards and onwards,

Give your clients what they want without giving up anything you want.


The Revenue Revolution™ System combines fixed rate billing + performance billing, making clients happier to sign faster and stay longer. At the same time, agencies get paid for the value they bring and still get paid even if they don't hit benchmarks. It’s a win-win! 

You'll earn more money with The Revenue Revolution™ System. Guaranteed.

The results? We're about to blow your mind.

+ $100,000 in annual billing

B2B Client

A client with over $2 million in annual ad spend started with a 10% retainer, bringing in $200,000 for us. We then switched to performance billing, dropping the retainer to 8% and earning $160,000. We hit our targets and earned an extra $100,000. They also increased their monthly ad spend, leading to higher retainer brackets and even greater profits for our team and theirs. So, we netted an additional $100,000 overall from implementing performance-based bonuses.

+ $35,000 in annual billing

E-commerce Client

A client with around $700,000 in annual ad spend initially paid us a 10% retainer, netting us $70,000. We decided to shake things up by keeping the 10% retainer but adding performance billing based on ROAS targets. Our team smashed those targets, earning us an extra $35,000 and bringing our total haul to $105,000. The ROAS goals fired up our team, and we celebrated by sharing part of the bonuses with our employees.

+ $43,000 in annual billing

SaaS Client

An incredible SaaS client had about $430,000 in annual ad spend and started with a 10% retainer, earning us $43,000. We then introduced performance billing based on deal targets while keeping the 10% retainer. Although we didn’t hit the bonus targets, we built trust and maintained a strong, long-term relationship. This led to the client increasing their bracket fees, ultimately boosting our annual billing by $43,000—and still counting.

+ $300,000 in annual billing

E-commerce Prospect

An incredible lead with about $1.6 million in annual ad spend came through. We introduced performance billing based on revenue targets into our proposal, which impressed the prospect so much that they canceled all other calls with other agencies. We secured a 12-month contract with this fantastic prospect, resulting in $300,000 in annual billing.

Step #1

Customize Your Inputs


Easily customize your template with your company name, your client's name, campaign description, and key conversion actions that signify a payable target.

 

Step #2

Establish Benchmarks

 

Establish a benchmark campaign target required to earn a bonus. Then input your base fee and the dollar amount you'll earn for when you surpass the goal of the agreed upon benchmark.

For example: Use this bonus template to earn 20% of the difference between breakeven cost per lead (CPL) and actual cost per lead. If your client's benchmark is a $50 CPL, and you generate 100 leads at a $40 CPL, your bonus would be $200 (on top of your monthly retainer).

Step #3

Scenario Modeling


This template will automatically give you three real-world scenarios and display whether or not you'd achieve a bonus under three sets of conditions. Play with the inputs and see how performance impacts your total compensation!

Step #4

Track and Forecast Bonuses


This template helps you monitor monthly and annual anticipated bonuses alongside retainer fees. It gives you and your clients transparent insights into performance targets and financial details.

Step #5
