Google Ads management pricing for small businesses and ecommerce
Month-to-month. 30-day notice either direction. You stay because of results, not contracts.
Managed accounts waste 30 to 40% of their budget.
Neglected ones waste up to 70 to 90%.
Here’s what that looks like in dollars, based on a typical account we take on:
The math: If we cut your waste rate in half, that’s $2,250 to $3,000/month redirected into converting traffic, before any optimisation, creative work, or scaling. The fee pays for itself in the first 30 days.
You’re already paying for the waste.
The only question is whether you keep paying for it, or pay us to fix it.

Meta Ads management starts at $6,000 a month in ad spend. The fee is higher than Google Ads because Meta needs ongoing creative work: briefing, testing and refreshing ads.
Running both Google and Meta? The two fees combine. Prices exclude GST.
These rates apply across our Google Ads consultant work, Google Shopping feed and PMax management, and Meta Ads campaigns. Flat monthly fee, not a percentage of ad spend.

Is there a lock-in contract?
No. Every engagement is month-to-month. You stay because the work delivers value, not because you're locked in.
What happens if I want to leave?
You keep everything: your accounts, your data, your ad copy, your negative keyword lists. Nothing is held hostage.
Do I talk to the person doing the work?
Yes. There are no account managers, no juniors, no handoffs. You work directly with a senior paid media specialist.
Why aren't you charging a percentage of ad spend?
Because percentage-of-spend pricing incentivises your manager to increase your budget, not your results. Flat fees align our interests: we succeed when your campaigns perform, not when your spend grows.
Can I combine Google Ads and Meta Ads?
Yes. If you need both platforms, we'll build a custom package. Cross-platform management often delivers better results because we can see where budget should shift based on real performance.
What if I just want an audit first?
Start with a free audit: no obligation. We'll show you where budget is leaking and what to fix. If you want us to do the fixing, we can talk about a plan.
Not sure which plan fits?
Tell us about your business and your current ad spend. We'll recommend the right plan, or tell you honestly if you don't need one.
