Professional Services Paid media · Qualified consultations-tied programs

Professional Services Paid media
that earn back ad spend.

We run paid media programs for professional services teams who care about contribution margin, not last-click ROAS theatre. Google, Meta, LinkedIn, and the channels that actually fit your buyer — built around the segments that pay back, not the ones with the cheapest clicks.

What's included · paid media

Six things every professional services
paid media engagement ships with.

Some agencies hide what's included until you're past the proposal stage. We don't. Here's exactly what every professional services paid media engagement covers — six concrete deliverables, each tied to your unit economics.

01 — INCLUDED

Channel-fit assessment

Two-week diagnostic on which channels actually fit your buyer. Most clients are running on 4 channels; we usually consolidate to 2.

02 — INCLUDED

Account architecture rebuild

Campaign, ad-group, and audience structure rebuilt around your ICP segments — not Google's recommendations or last consultant's leftovers.

03 — INCLUDED

Creative & copy production

Static, video, and motion creative refreshed every 14 days. Owned by senior creative, not a junior in a Slack channel.

04 — INCLUDED

Bid strategy & attribution

Bid strategies tuned to qualified-lead value, MQL→SQL rate, or contribution margin. Server-side tracking on every campaign.

05 — INCLUDED

Audience & segment work

First-party CRM uploads, lookalikes built from closed-won data, and exclusion logic on segments that don't pay back.

06 — INCLUDED

Weekly optimization, monthly attribution

Weekly cycle of creative, audience, and bid optimization. Monthly attribution review tied to your unit economics.

kickoff and lift.

Three services that compound the lift

The other levers
in this professional services cluster.

Paid media is one of four services we run for professional services clients. The compound impact comes from running them as a connected program — each tied to the same attribution model and a single point of accountability.

Common questions

Things professional services teams
ask about paid media.

Eight of the most common questions we field on first calls. If something here isn't covered, the strategy call is the right place to dig in.

What's the typical investment for Professional Services paid media?
Investment depends on scope and complexity. $4K–$10K + spend typical is the typical range we land at. We'll give you a fixed quote within 5 business days of an audit call — no rolling invoices, no scope creep without a written rebid.
How long until we see results from a paid media engagement?
Depends on the channel. For paid media, lift is visible inside week two. For SEO, expect 4–6 months to see meaningful conversion-tied lift. For web design and maintenance, conversion lift typically shows up in the first 60 days post-launch.
Will you work alongside our existing team or vendors?
Yes — about 78% of our engagements involve coordinating with an in-house team or another specialist agency. We're explicit about RACI in the kickoff so there's no ambiguity about who owns what.
What does the onboarding look like?
Two weeks. Day 1–5: kick-off, access provisioning, audit. Day 6–10: strategy briefing and roadmap. Day 11–14: signed scope and the first deliverable shipped. We move faster than agency-typical onboarding because we don't run a 60-day discovery phase.
How is success measured?
We tie reporting to professional services-specific outcomes: Qualified consultations, Cost per lead, Close rate. Every monthly review includes attribution from channel → outcome, not vanity metrics. We'll show you the math.
What if we want to bring this in-house later?
About 14% of our clients exit before 12 months because they've hired an in-house team. We support that transition explicitly — documentation, playbooks, and a 30-day handoff included. Good outcome for everyone.
Do you sign DPAs / SOC 2 / NDAs?
Yes. We're SOC 2 Type II audited, GDPR-compliant, and routinely sign NDAs and DPAs before any privileged work. Templates in the contract pack we share post-strategy call.
How are change requests handled?
Inside the monthly retainer or on a per-project basis depending on scope. Small adjustments are inside the retainer. Net-new pages, new channels, or major rebuilds are scoped separately so you know exactly what you're paying for.
Three ways forward

Start with a paid media audit, not a sales call.

Pick the path that fits where your team is right now. We default to giving you something useful in the first conversation — a real audit finding or a written scope — before either of us makes a longer commitment.
