Google Ads or Facebook and Instagram ads: which is right for you?
They work in very different ways, and the right choice depends on how your customers decide to buy.
Google Ads
People actively searching for your service right now
“I need a plumber in Norwood today”
Urgent and high-intent services: trades, repairs, clinics, legal
The right keywords and a page that converts
Catch demand that already exists
Meta Ads (Facebook and Instagram)
People scrolling who match your area and interests
“That looks good, I might book”
Visual and impulse offers: food, beauty, fitness, events, home styling
Eye-catching video and a strong offer
Create demand and stay top of mind
Many Adelaide businesses do best with both: Google to catch people searching, and Meta to keep reaching locals who aren’t searching yet. We’ll recommend where to start in your free review.
We’ll tell you whether to start with Google, Meta or both. Free, no obligation.
What your $450 a month covers

Keyword research
We find what Adelaide customers actually type when they need you, and leave out the searches that waste money

Search term and wasted-spend checks

How often: Weekly
Bid and budget optimisation
We move money towards the ads, keywords and times of day that bring leads

Monthly report and call
Spend, leads and cost per lead, in plain English, plus next month’s plan

We check your search terms every week and move budget to what actually brings leads.
How your ad budget works
Your ad budget and our fee are kept completely separate, so you always know where every dollar goes.
Suggested starting budget: most Adelaide local businesses start with around $500 to $1,500 a month in ad spend.
You pay the platforms directly. Your ad spend goes straight from your card to Google or Meta. We never mark it up or hold your money.
Our fee is separate and fixed. $450 a month for management, whether you spend a little or a lot.
You set the budget. We’ll recommend a starting budget for your industry and area in your free review, then help you scale up what works.
You can see everything. The accounts are in your name, so you can log in and check spending anytime.
What happens in your first 90 days
Set up and launch
- Free review becomes a full ads plan: platforms, budget, areas and offers
- Campaigns built in your own accounts, with conversion tracking for calls, forms and WhatsApp
- Ads live within 5–7 business days of getting access
Learn and cut waste
- Search terms checked weekly and irrelevant ones blocked
- Budget shifted to the ads, keywords and suburbs that bring leads
- New ad versions tested against the best performers
Scale what works

An honest note: ads can bring enquiries within days, but the first few weeks are also when the platforms learn who to show your ads to. Costs usually settle as we cut waste and find what works.

Are paid ads right for your business?
A great fit if you:
- Want enquiries soon, not in six months
- Have a service with clear demand in Adelaide (people already search for it)
- Can handle more calls and bookings if they come in
- Have a website or landing page that makes it easy to get in touch, or are happy to get one
Probably not the right fit yet if you:
- Can’t set aside a steady monthly ad budget on top of our fee
- Have no way for people to contact you online
- Need guaranteed results; no honest agency can promise a set number of leads

Running ads and local SEO together
Ads bring in leads now. Local SEO builds the steady flow that keeps coming when you pause ads. Together, they cover both: you appear in the ads above the results and in the map pack below them, which takes up more of the page and builds trust.
If you’re on our local SEO plan in Adelaide, your two weekly reels can be used as Meta ad creative at no extra cost, and the search terms from your Google ads tell us which words to target in your SEO.
Ask about both in your free review, and we’ll tell you honestly whether you need one or both.
Paid ads questions from Adelaide businesses
Still unsure? Message us on WhatsApp and a real person will answer.
How much does Google Ads management cost in Adelaide?
Our management fee is $450 a month, with no setup fee and no lock-in contract. Your ad spend is separate and paid directly to Google or Meta, so you control it.
How much should I spend on ads?
It depends on your industry, how competitive your area is and how many leads you want. In your free review, we’ll look at what your keywords cost in Adelaide and recommend a sensible starting budget, then grow it once we know your cost per lead.
How quickly will I get leads?
Ads can start bringing enquiries within days of going live. The first few weeks are also a learning period, so cost per lead usually improves as we cut waste and find what works.
Do you take a percentage of my ad spend?
No. Our fee is a flat $450 a month, and your budget goes straight to Google or Meta. We have no reason to push you to spend more than makes sense.
Who owns the ad accounts?
You do. Your Google Ads and Meta ad accounts are set up in your name, with your payment card. We work in them as your manager. If you ever leave, the accounts, history and data stay with you.
I already have Google Ads running. Can you take over?
Yes. We’ll review your current account for free, show you where money is being wasted, and fix it rather than starting from scratch.
Can you show my ads only in certain Adelaide suburbs?
Yes. We target the suburbs or the radius you actually serve, and can exclude areas you don’t want work from.
Do I need a new website to run ads?
Not always. Ads need a page that loads fast and makes it easy to call or enquire. If your current site does that, we’ll use it. If not, we’ll tell you what to change, or quote a landing page or website.
Can you guarantee a number of leads?
No honest agency can, because results depend on your market, budget and offer. What we promise is weekly attention to your account, no wasted spend we can see, and clear monthly reporting on cost per lead.
Do I need to meet you?
No. Setup, reviews and monthly calls all happen over video call, phone and WhatsApp.
