The problem

Running ads without a system is throwing money into the air.

Most businesses pay thousands a month on advertising and receive vanity reports — impressions, clicks, CTR — that say nothing about the real business. Others have been burned by agencies that promised leads and delivered confusion.

We build a complete system: we research your market, structure your campaigns, optimise day by day, respond to leads with AI 24/7, and report in plain business language — no technical jargon.

How we get you results

Four steps that turn ad budget into real customers

A proven, repeatable path — you focus on your business, we handle the rest.

C1
Capture

We find the people ready to buy

Before spending a dollar, we pinpoint exactly who is most likely to become your customer — so your budget only ever chases real demand.

C2
Create

We make ads people stop for

Scroll-stopping ads and videos in your brand’s voice, built to turn attention into enquiries — not just likes and views.

C3
Connect

We reply the moment they’re interested

Your campaigns run every day and every enquiry is answered in seconds, 24/7 — so a hot lead never goes cold waiting on you.

C4
Convert

You see the results that matter

Clear updates in plain language: how many customers came in, what each one cost, and what we’re doing to bring you more. No jargon.

Differentiators

What makes us different

Three pieces that work together — not separate services.

Unique in the market
SellFlow · Your 24/7 virtual sales agent

Responds, qualifies and books appointments while you sleep

The biggest problem with running ads isn't generating leads — it's responding fast. When someone messages you at 11pm after seeing your ad, if no one replies within 15 minutes, they go to the competition.

SellFlow is our AI-powered bot included in all 3 plans. It responds on Instagram, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger 24/7, qualifies leads, books appointments and organises contacts.

2-week research setup

We research before spending your budget

Other agencies take your payment and within 3 days they have ads running with whatever they had on hand. We work differently.

The first 2 weeks are only research and structure: we analyse your industry, competition and funnel, define your real offer, structure campaigns, and configure complete tracking. All documented. When we launch in week 3, we're not guessing — we're executing a plan.

2 weeks of research Senior strategist attention Written playbook
4-week Confidence Period

If you're not comfortable in the first month, cancel without penalty

We know many have already been burned by previous agencies. That's why we include a 4-Week Confidence Period: if in the first month you're not satisfied with the communication, strategy or execution, you can cancel without penalty. You only pay for the weeks worked.

After month 1, full commitment until week 12. After that, free cancellation with 15 days' notice.

Honest fit

Who this service is built for

Be honest with yourself. This works best when it's the right fit.

This is for you if…

  • You run a service business with a validated offer — you're not testing an idea, you're scaling one
  • You've tried ads before (with or without an agency) and didn't get clear returns
  • You value transparent reporting over agency jargon and inflated metrics
  • You're ready to invest at least AUD $1,000/month in ad spend and let the algorithms optimise
  • You want to be involved strategically, not micromanage day-to-day execution

This is not for you if…

  • You're shopping for the cheapest option and expect premium results
  • You want guaranteed leads or numbers in writing — no honest agency can promise that
  • You need immediate returns in less than 30 days
  • You'd rather run ads yourself and only need someone to click "publish"

Being upfront saves everyone time. If we're the right fit, we'll grow together. If not, we'll point you toward something that suits you better.

FAQ

What service business owners want to know

Direct answers from years running ads across industries.

How the process works: Setup vs weekly fee +
The Initial Setup (AUD $850) covers the first 2 weeks of research and configuration — before any campaign launches. The weekly fee starts from week 3, when campaigns are live and we’re in daily operation mode. Two distinct phases, two distinct costs.
Why ad spend goes directly to Meta / Google +
Total transparency, no conflict of interest. If we bundled ad spend with our fee, you'd never know how much is really being spent on ads. Separating them means you control the ad account and see exactly where every dollar goes.
What's the right ad budget for my business size? +
Google and Meta can operate from AUD $500/month, but below AUD $1,000/month the algorithm doesn't have enough data to optimise. Most service businesses see meaningful results from AUD $1,500–$3,000/month in ad spend. High-competition industries (legal, finance) need AUD $3,000+ to get traction.
The 3 phases of results: what to expect month by month +
Month 1 — algorithm learning phase: some leads coming in but data is still noisy. Month 2 — optimisation phase: we identify what converts and double down. Month 3+ — predictable phase: sustained results with clear CPL and ROAS. That’s why we require 12 weeks minimum — anything less doesn’t give the algorithms time to work.
How the First Month Confidence Period works +
During the first 4 weeks of operation (weeks 3–6 of the project), if you're not satisfied with the communication, strategy or execution, cancel without penalty. You only pay for the weeks worked. After month 1, full commitment until week 12.
Who creates the creatives? +
We do — all included in your plan. Essential: 4 statics + 2 videos / month. Growth: 8 + 4. Scale: 12 + 6. Videos are edited using material you record with your phone (we teach you how).
Can I change plans as my business grows? +
Yes. You can upgrade from Essential to Growth (or Growth to Scale) at any point. The change is prorated from the following week — no penalty for growing with us.
Do I own my ad accounts? +
100%. Always. We configure everything under your Business Manager, not ours. If one day you decide to leave, you take everything — accounts, audiences, history, pixels, data.
What if my industry isn't in the benchmarks? +
The published benchmarks are general references. Each business is different. During the Initial Setup we do a specific analysis of your sector and give you personalised expected ranges for your case.
