Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Google Ads credit work? expand_more
Google offers bonus ad credit for new Google Ads accounts. The more you invest, the more free credit you unlock — up to $2,500. For example, spend $5,000 and Google adds $2,500 free, giving you $7,500 total budget. The credit is applied over your first 60 days. We handle the application process for you.
What if I already have a Google Ads account? expand_more
The ad credit is only available for new Google Ads accounts. If you have an existing account, we can still help you with the full starter package (landing page, campaigns, tracking), but the matched credit won't apply. In some cases, creating a new account under a different business entity may qualify — we can discuss options during our discovery call.
What's the minimum budget to get started? expand_more
We recommend a minimum of $1,000/month in ad spend to generate enough data for meaningful optimisation. You can start with less — Google offers credit tiers starting from $540 spend. To unlock the maximum $2,500 credit, you'll need to spend $5,000 within your first 60 days.
How long until I see results? expand_more
Your landing page & campaigns will be live within 2 weeks of our discovery call. Most clients start seeing leads within the first week of campaigns running. Meaningful data for optimisation typically takes 2-4 weeks. Profitable, consistent results usually emerge within 60-90 days as we optimise based on real performance data.
Do I own the landing page & campaigns? expand_more
Yes, 100%. The landing page is built on your hosting or a platform you control. Your Google Ads account is yours — we're added as managers, but you own everything. If you ever decide to part ways, you keep the landing page, campaigns, and all historical data. We don't believe in holding clients hostage.
What are your ongoing management fees? expand_more
Our management fees depend on your ad spend & scope of work. We'll provide a clear quote during or after our discovery call — no surprises. There are no setup fees for this package (the landing page is included free), and no long-term lock-in contracts. If we're not delivering value, you can leave.
