The problem paid media solves

You can spend money across several advertising platforms and still be left asking which campaigns produced useful enquiries. Paid media needs more than clicks and impressions. It needs clear targeting, conversion tracking and a consistent view of what your advertising is producing.

Understand Google Ads costs

Explore estimated costs based on aggregated historical account data. Your actual costs depend on your market, keywords and campaign.

Typical cost per click: $3.67. Estimated cost per lead: $34.67.

These figures are estimates, not a quote or a promise of results. Google Ads spend is paid directly to Google and is separate from our fee.

How paid media connects to the rest of your marketing

Paid Media works with Search & SEO, AI Search, Strategy & Growth and Web & Apps as one connected system. SEO and AI Search support discovery beyond paid campaigns. Strategy & Growth sets priorities and defines what a useful lead means for your business. Web & Apps supports the landing pages and tools that turn visits into enquiries. Together, the work is measured through calls, forms and quote requests.

How we measure it

We connect campaign activity to actions your business can follow up:

We don't sell channels or tools. We track every call, form and quote your marketing produces, and we run your SEO, Google Ads and website against the business goals you set, not impressions and clicks.

Measured by leads, not clicks.

  • Track calls, forms and quote requests attributed to your marketing.
  • Review campaign activity alongside conversion data in your live client dashboard.
  • Use the monthly business-results report, included with Managed plans and above, to assess outcomes.
