Ilarion Kompantsev
I am Ilarion Kompantsev, a performance marketer and founder of K&K Advertising Ltd, registered in the United Kingdom. I run paid acquisition with my team and work for a share of the result or equity. I do not charge retainers or monthly minimums.
Background
My work is paid acquisition: Google Ads and the platforms around it. I run the accounts with my team at K&K Advertising Ltd, using our own analytics layer on top of Google Ads.
I started in marketing in 2012 as a hired SEO specialist, and in 2014 opened my own web studio in Kyiv, building sites, online stores and landing pages. The team grew to about twenty people: marketers, data analysts and product owners. I moved it from Ukraine to Poland before the full-scale war. K&K Advertising Ltd was registered in the United Kingdom on 7 November 2022.
We measure results on a Google Ads analytics panel we built ourselves, with an AI consultant inside it.
A monthly fee rewards the time an account stays open. I want my compensation to depend on what I can change. That is why I work on revenue share, or equity when the stage of the business makes that sensible.
I read the campaigns, search terms and conversion data before we discuss an agreement. If I cannot see room to grow, I say so. If I can, we agree on the share and the numbers we will both use to assess the work.
The same data is where my research starts. I publish aggregates with the method, sample and period; client names stay out of the work.
