Google & Meta Ads

Most campaigns fail because nobody thought past the click.

Money goes in, impressions go up, and nothing happens. That is not how we work.

We build campaigns on Google and Meta that start with your business goals and work backward. Who are we trying to reach. What do we want them to do. How do we know it worked. Every dollar has a job, and we track whether it did that job.

You shouldn't need a marketing degree to see where your ad budget is going, so we make it simple.

What's Included

Every part of a campaign, handled.

01

Strategy & Targeting

We define your audience, your goals, and the right platform mix before spending a dollar. We research keywords, demographics, interests, and competitor positioning so your ads reach the people most likely to buy.

02

Creative & Copy

We write the ad copy and design the creative: headlines, descriptions, image ads, video thumbnails. Everything is built to stop the scroll and earn the click. Real creative and real copy, made for your business.

03

Campaign Build & Launch

We set up the full campaign structure: ad groups, audiences, bidding strategy, conversion tracking, UTM parameters. Everything is wired correctly from day one so the data is clean and the budget is working.

04

Optimization & Reporting

We monitor performance weekly, adjust bids, pause underperformers, and scale what works. You get a monthly report that shows exactly what your money did, in plain language.

The other side of the funnel. Ads drive the traffic. Your website closes the deal. If your landing pages aren't converting, it may be time for a website redesign before scaling spend. We also offer SEO and local search for organic results working alongside your paid campaigns.

John does amazing work and is an awesome communicator. The campaign was so effective I had to redo the worker schedule to meet the increased traffic. Highly recommend him for any design or promotional campaign.

FAQ

Questions about ads.

How much should I budget for ads?

Ad management starts at $500/month. Your actual ad spend on Google or Meta is separate and depends on your market and goals. We recommend a realistic budget during our first conversation, and we will never push you to spend more than makes sense.

How long before I see results?

Most campaigns need two to four weeks to gather enough data to optimize. Some clients see results in the first week. It depends on your industry, your offer, and how competitive your market is. We set expectations honestly upfront.

Do I need a website first?

It helps. Ads drive people somewhere, and if that somewhere is slow or confusing, the spend is wasted. If your site needs work, we can handle that too. Many clients bundle web design and ads together.

Will I own the ad accounts?

Yes. Your Google Ads and Meta Business accounts belong to you. We work inside your accounts with manager access, and if we ever part ways, everything stays with you. No hostage situations.

What kind of reporting do I get?

A clear monthly report showing spend, clicks, conversions, cost per lead, and what we're doing next. Plain language about what the numbers mean for your business.
