Questions time

FAQ

What does Meta ads management include?

I manage campaign setup, targeting, budgets and day-to-day optimisation. I also research, write, design and upload the ads, run creative tests and report on the results.

Do you write and design the ads?

Yes. I research your ICPs and USPs, write the ad copy and design the creatives myself. You’ll work directly with me, and we review the first creatives together before launch.

What types of companies do you work with?

I work with B2B and B2C tech companies that need hands-on Meta ads management. Your company should aim to spend at least €6,000/month on Meta ads. My work connects the account setup and optimisation with ad copy, design and creative testing.

How often do you test new ads?

I launch new creative tests bi-weekly. The number of ads depends on the account and test budget, and each test starts with a clear hypothesis.

How will I know what’s working?

I report on the metrics that drive revenue, including leads, purchases and other conversions. You’ll see which campaigns and creatives deliver those results, the changes I’ve made and what I recommend testing next.

How does the monthly retainer work?

Campaign management, ad copy and design, testing and reporting are included in one monthly retainer. Your media spend is separate. The minimum commitment is three months, giving us time to review the account and run several rounds of tests.

How do you report and communicate?

I send weekly campaign performance reports and keep you informed about every campaign update. We’ll also set up a shared Slack channel to exchange feedback, collaborate and move quickly on the next tests.

How much does it cost?

Packages start from €3,500/month. The price increases with your ad budget and the number of campaigns I manage.
