Common questions

What does a PPC agency do?

A PPC agency plans, builds and optimizes paid ads, most often Google Ads and Microsoft Ads, and reports on cost per lead or return on ad spend.

Is ad spend included in the agency fee?

Usually not. Agencies typically charge a management fee (flat, or a percentage of spend) on top of the media budget you pay the ad platform directly.

Should my ad account be in my name?

Yes. Ask for the ad account to be created under your business so you keep the history and data if you change agencies.
