Frequently Asked Questions
What is PPC marketing?
PPC, or pay-per-click marketing is a type of digital marketing where you pay not for impressions or eyeballs, but for each click on your ad. The most well-known example is Google Search Ads, but there are other platforms that allow you pay by the click as well including LinkedIn.
How much does PPC advertising cost per month?
There are two costs for PPC advertising. One is your agency management cost and one is media spend. The agency costs at Solid Digital start at $3,000 per month for PPC strategy and account management. Media spend depends on your budget, the competitiveness of the keywords you are bidding on, and desired reach. Our clients typically spend $20K or more per month in ad costs.
How long does it take to get started?
We start with a learn and strategize phase with each new client to understand your business, objectives, audience and audit any current PPC campaigns you have. Once a contract is signed, this can take two to three weeks and is followed by campaign and asset creation which takes another two to three weeks depending on the number of campaigns and ad designs and landing pages you’ll need. Once ads are created and approved, they can be enabled and go live immediately.
How do you measure success for a B2B brand?
As an agency with a B2B focus, we get it. You don’t have a “buy now” button like an ecommerce website. However, we work with you to determine (and A/B test) valuable CTAs, form design and placement, and overall CRO on your landing pages. This is aligned with your PPC ads and keywords. We track engagement and form fills in Google Analytics and the PPC platforms where your ads appear. Getting MQL, SQL and sales data from you helps us take it one step further in determining ROI. With monthly calls and quarterly strategy sessions, you’ll have complete access to all of your data and exactly what we are doing to improve performance.
