Digital Marketing Tips

Setting Your Advertising Budget

Not sure how much to spend on ads? Start with a budget you're comfortable with and focus on testing. A good rule of thumb for small businesses is to allocate 5-10% of revenue toward marketing, with a portion dedicated to paid advertising. As you see results, you can scale up your investment.

Choosing the Right Platforms

Not every platform is right for every business. Google Ads works well for businesses with products or services people actively search for. Social media ads are great for building brand awareness and reaching specific demographics. Consider where your customers spend their time online.

Creating Effective Ad Copy

Good ad copy is clear, concise, and focused on benefits. Lead with what matters most to your customers. Include a strong call-to-action that tells people exactly what to do next. Test different messages to see what resonates best.

The Importance of Landing Pages

Where you send ad traffic matters as much as the ad itself. Create dedicated landing pages that match your ad message and make it easy for visitors to take action. A well-designed landing page can significantly improve your conversion rates.

Common Questions

How long before I see results?

Paid advertising can generate traffic immediately, but meaningful results typically take 2-4 weeks as campaigns are optimized. SEO efforts take longer—usually 3-6 months to see significant organic improvements.

What's the difference between SEO and paid ads?

SEO improves your organic (unpaid) search rankings over time. Paid ads put you at the top of search results or in social feeds immediately, but you pay for each click or impression. Most businesses benefit from a combination of both.

How do I know if my ads are working?

Track key metrics like click-through rate, cost per click, conversion rate, and return on ad spend. We provide regular reports that show exactly how your campaigns are performing and what results they're generating.

Can I run ads myself?

Yes, the platforms are accessible to anyone. However, managing ads effectively requires time, expertise, and constant optimization. Many businesses find that working with an agency delivers better results and frees up their time to focus on running their business.
