"If you are working in the marketing space and you have contractors or roles where it can be internal facing, the staff from HireUA would be an amazing option."
The Magic of Marketing is a Meta Ads agency based in Australia that works exclusively with buyer's agents in the property space. They've managed over $764,000 in ad spend, averaging a 305% ROI across their client base — with some clients hitting 16x return.
Their entire model runs on video. Video ads that stop the scroll. Video sales letters that pre-sell before the call. Creative that positions their clients as the authority in their market.
And here's the thing:
When your agency's core deliverable is video-driven Meta Ads, the video editor isn't a support role. They're the engine. Every client campaign needs fresh cuts, new hooks, tested variations. The workload scales linearly with the number of clients — and when the agency is growing, the editing queue grows with it.
Haiti, the founder, needed a video editor who could handle that volume. Someone who understood direct response principles — not just flashy transitions, but ads that actually convert. He'd tried other vendors before and had success, but reached out to HireUA to find additional talent as the client roster expanded.
We placed a video editor within 21 days. Three interviews. Two strong candidates. One hire.
The Magic of Marketing & HireUA — Case Study Q&A
1. What positions have you hired through HireUA?
A video editor to edit Meta Ads for our clients. We're a marketing agency in the property space in Australia, and we needed someone to help with the workload of putting out high-quality video content for our clients' campaigns.
2. Can you describe your hiring situation before working with us?
We've tried one or two other vendors for hiring this position. The other vendors also went successfully. So we had some experience with outsourcing video editing work, and we came to HireUA to find more great candidates as we scaled.
3. How would you describe your overall experience working with us throughout the hiring process?
It was pretty streamlined. I had a call with Nick, and then within a week or two we had a job ad out there. Within a few weeks, we had three interviews. Two of them were really, really strong. One was good but didn't quite fit the role specifically. We followed through with the strong candidates.
4. How much money do you think you're currently saving with your hire?
Definitely thousands of dollars per year compared to hiring locally in Australia. It's a really affordable option working with people who come from HireUA.
5. What contribution has this hire made to your company?
It's about supporting our clients to scale. From the video editing side and from a briefing point of view, this hire helps our clients scale their Meta Ads with high-quality creative — which is the core of what we deliver.
6. Would you recommend our services to other companies like yours?
For sure. If you're working in the marketing space and you have contractor or internal-facing roles, the staff from HireUA would be an amazing option.
Why Agencies Need to Hire a Video Editor
Meta Ads agencies live and die by their creative. The algorithm rewards fresh content. Clients expect a constant stream of new variations — different hooks, different CTAs, different formats — all tested and iterated weekly.
For an agency like The Magic of Marketing, that means the video editor has to move fast, understand what a direct response ad looks like, and produce work that doesn't just look good — it has to convert.
This isn't the kind of editing where you're cutting a 45-minute podcast into clips. This is performance creative. Short-form cuts with text overlays, b-roll swaps, hook testing, aspect ratio variations for placements. The editor needs to understand why a 3-second hook matters more than a smooth transition.
Hiring locally in Australia or the US for this kind of specialized video editing runs $4,000-$6,000/month for full-time work. For a growing agency managing dozens of client accounts, that cost stacks fast.
By hiring through HireUA, agencies like The Magic of Marketing access editors who already understand the direct response video format — at a fraction of the local cost. That's not cutting corners. That's reallocating budget toward what actually grows the agency: more clients, better results, higher ad spend under management.
