How do you approach managing Google and Meta Ads?

We know that paid traffic (Google and Meta Ads) can be confusing and super overwhelming, but we are here to clear that up and help you get results.

When it comes to eCommerce there really are no cookie-cutter solutions. We fully customise our approach to fit your unique eCommerce landscape, business and budget. We manage your ads so you can step away from the stress and overwhelm of the advertising management so you can focus at what you enjoy and what you are best at.

What is your actual process for setting up and managing my ads?

We handle everything from start to finish in your ads so you can completely step away from the stress. Once we have access to all the things we need (don’t worry, we will step you through this step by step) we will handle everything.

We will firstly audit your advertising account and the tech setup and all the data inside the account. We then work with you to actively set the goals of the account (what return on your advertising spend we have to get to ensure you are profitable).

Next we research your audience, build your campaigns and strategy and handle the daily optimisations to keep your ad account profitable (or make it profitable if it isn’t currently).

We also provide you with clear, jargon-free monthly reports so you always know exactly how your budget is performing. Chat to us about ads management now.

Do I need a specific monthly ads budget to work with you?

Yes, we generally recommend having a starting ad spend budget of at least $2000 to $3000 per month for Google or Meta Ads. This is on top of our monthly management fee.

This budget gives the platforms enough data to test, learn and start optimising for sales efficiently. This means we are getting enough information to make great decisions to get you profitable or increase your profitability in your ads account. This spend also helps you remain profitable when our monthly fee is taken from your revenue generated by ads too.

We want to make sure that your money is working hard for you and we will always be honest if we think your budget matches your goals. Chat to us about ads management now.

How long does it take to start seeing profitable results from paid ads?

Honestly it depends, each account is different and will take a different amount of time to see profitable results from paid advertising for their eCommerce store. You may see initial sales quickly, it typically takes 60 to 90 days of consistent testing and optimising to get profitable results. It can take longer on brand-new ad accounts though.

During this initial phase, we are gathering valuable data on what creative, copy and audiences will convert best for your eCommerce store. We always respect your budget and treat it with utmost care during all phases of your advertising. We take this seriously, but we really enjoy our work! Chat to us about ads management now.

Do I own my ad accounts, or do you build them under your agency?

You 100% own all of your advertising accounts, pixels, data and assets. We will never lock you out of your accounts or prevent you from accessing them. That really does not sit well with us when other agencies do this. 

We will require secure partner access to your Google Ads (and associated products) and/or Meta Business Manager to do our work but you have the ability to remove our access at any time you need or wish to.

If we ever stop working together, you keep all the data in your advertising accounts, but we will remove all of our scripts, reports and intellectual property that we plug into your accounts to be able to get it to perform at its best. You keep all data inside the ads accounts and that means all the ahrd work inside the accounts we have completed during the time together.

What kind of creative assets (images and videos) do I need to provide?

You don’t need high end studio productions creative for your advertising. But we will need access to raw product photos, or short authentic videos from you!

We then take these assets and turn them into high converting ad formats that stop people from scrolling. We will guide you with clear instructions, and provide you with links to tools you may need if you don’t have them already, so you get clear details for exactly what content is required that will work best for your specific eCommerce stores audience.

We will work with you to ensure that we get the creative assets we need. Chat to us about the process more.
