Before you start
- Google Ads customer ID or a clear new-account request
- Target service areas, approved offers and landing pages
- Monthly ad spend budget and active platform billing
Keep passwords, one-time codes, card details and sensitive customer records out of your brief. Send access invitations through the platform itself.
Follow the steps
Step 1
Describe the business, high-value services and ideal customer. Include locations you serve and places you cannot serve.
Step 2
Provide your lead definition, sales process, opening hours and approved claims. Tell us about existing campaigns and restrictions.
Step 3
Review the R3,000 monthly management package: one ad account and up to three Search campaigns. Google ad spend is separate.
Step 4
After saving your details and paying, send the customer ID and accept our manager request using the linked guide.
Step 5
Prepare the landing pages and existing tracking details. We review conversion measurement within the supported site setup.
Step 6
Approve the budget and ad messaging. We confirm readiness and launch status after platform review; leads and sales are not guaranteed.
How to know it worked
We send a readiness confirmation after reviewing your brief, payment, assets and required access. A receipt alone is not a production start date.
