Questions before you start
Does the management fee include my Google Ads budget?
No. The prices shown are Jim’s management fees. Your advertising budget is paid directly to Google. For example, a $2,000 monthly ad budget has a $500 monthly management fee: $2,500 total, before any agreed one-time setup work.
Is the free consultation a full account audit?
The free initial consultation is a conversation about your goals and the support you need. A detailed account audit is a separate paid service, starting at $500.
Do I need a long-term contract?
No long-term contract is required for monthly management. Services are month-to-month, and monthly management is paid in advance.
Can I manage my own campaigns and get help?
Yes. Consulting is $150/hour, or $300/month for two hours. Additional consulting time is $150/hour.
Are Local Services Ads and website projects included in these tiers?
These management tiers apply to Google Ads. Local Services Ads management, website design and landing page projects are scoped separately. Discuss those services with Jim to receive a quote.
Why do setup and complex audits have a price range?
The work depends on the number of campaigns, the condition of the existing account and tracking requirements. Jim confirms the scope and fee before you pay for the work.
