Learn MoreWhy Your Ads Aren't Scaling
We audit dozens of ad accounts every year. These are the most common - and most expensive - mistakes South African businesses make.
Bottom-Funnel Only
Targeting only people ready to buy means competing for the smallest, most expensive audience. Without awareness campaigns, you're in a bidding war for the same 5% of the market. We build five-stage funnels that capture the other 95% at lower costs.
No Conversion Tracking
Running ads without proper tracking is flying blind. Many SA businesses track clicks but not actual revenue - making it impossible to know what works. We implement full-funnel attribution from first click to closed sale.
Generic Creative & Messaging
Stock photo ads with 'Learn More' CTAs don't cut it. Social platforms reward compelling, original creative with lower CPMs and higher engagement. We produce all creative in-house - images, video, carousels - designed to stop the scroll.

Digital Marketing FAQs
Common questions about our digital marketing services.
How much does digital marketing cost in South Africa?
Management fees start from R4,000-R5,000/month per channel. Most businesses invest R10,000-R50,000/month total (management + ad spend) depending on goals and competitiveness. All creative production - images, videos, copy - is included in our management fees.
We provide detailed projections so you know expected costs and results before committing. Get a custom quote.
What digital marketing services do you offer?
We offer comprehensive digital marketing: Google Ads (Search, Shopping, Display, Performance Max), Facebook & Instagram Ads (with full creative production), PPC management across multiple platforms, conversion rate optimisation (A/B testing, UX analysis), lead generation (multi-channel funnels with CRM integration), and soon ChatGPT Ads as early adopters.
Do you create all the ad content and creative?
Yes - this is a core differentiator. We produce all ad copywriting, static image design, carousel ads, video content, and motion graphics in-house. You don't need a separate creative agency. If you have existing brand assets, we'll incorporate them. If not, we create everything from scratch.
What are the Five Stages of Awareness?
Based on Eugene Schwartz's framework: Unaware → Problem-Aware → Solution-Aware → Product-Aware → Most Aware. Most agencies only target Stage 5 (ready to buy) - the smallest, most expensive audience. We build campaigns across all five stages, creating demand at the top and converting at the bottom for 10× larger addressable audiences.
How quickly will I see results?
Paid campaigns generate leads within 24-48 hours. Stable, optimised performance develops within 60-90 days as we gather data, test variations, and refine targeting. SEO and content marketing take 3-6 months but deliver increasingly cost-effective results over time.
Which marketing channels should I use?
It depends on your goals: Google Ads for capturing existing demand (people already searching), Facebook/Instagram for creating new demand and retargeting, LinkedIn for B2B targeting, and SEO for long-term organic growth. We recommend a multi-channel approach and allocate budget based on performance data.
Do I own my ad accounts?
100% yes. All ad accounts belong to you. We access them through manager accounts (MCC, Business Manager), so all data, audiences, and conversion history stay with you if you ever change agencies. This is non-negotiable.
What about ChatGPT Ads?
We're registered as early adopters for ChatGPT Ads - OpenAI's upcoming advertising platform. Our clients will be among the first brands to appear inside AI conversations. With 200M+ weekly ChatGPT users, this is the most significant new ad channel since social media. Join our early access list.
