FlowTiger

What FlowTiger does

FlowTiger is a US-based, bootstrapped eCommerce media buying agency founded in 2019, operating with 11-50 employees from California (per Terms of Service governing law). The company delivers full-funnel paid media management for direct-to-consumer brands, structured around three core service lines: Paid Search (Google Ads with query-level control and smart bidding aligned to margin and ROAS), Paid Social (full-funnel campaign architecture across Meta, TikTok, Snapchat, and Pinterest with creative-first iteration), and Creative Strategy (performance-driven creative systems with structured testing frameworks). It maintains official partner status with TikTok, Meta, and Shopify, and serves over 110 eCommerce brands globally, including Puma and Lavazza alongside mid-market and growth-stage apparel, activewear, health supplements, jewelry, and bedding brands.

The underlying technology stack is non-proprietary: FlowTiger relies on industry-standard advertising platforms (Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, TikTok Ads, Snapchat Ads, Pinterest Ads) combined with attribution and analytics tooling such as Google Tag Manager and Triple Whale. No API, SDK, or in-house AI/ML capability is disclosed. Client acquisition runs exclusively through high-touch direct sales: free "Growth Audits" and discovery calls convert prospects into managed-services engagements, with pricing customized to ad-spend volume and scope rather than published rate cards. Revenue is generated on managed-services fees tied to client advertising budgets and performance outcomes, billed monthly.

FlowTiger positions itself as an "elite" boutique provider, emphasizing senior media buyers managing accounts from day one, dedicated cross-functional "growth pods" (buyers, creatives, strategists), real-time dashboards, and quantified case-study outcomes (e.g., Yitai 102% YoY revenue growth, Ranaco Atelier 874% YoY revenue growth, DTC activewear brand scaling from $4.8M to $17.3M). The company shows no disclosed funding, no parent organization, no subsidiaries, no M&A activity, and no leadership changes in the available data.
