Paid search and social

Google and Facebook Ads for Small Businesses

Reach people with a focused offer, send them to a useful page, and measure what happens after the click. Brightbox can review whether paid campaigns fit your goals and budget.

The approach

The ad and landing page need to work together.

A campaign starts with the audience, the offer, the destination page, and the action that matters. Google Search and Facebook or Instagram ads can play different roles, so each needs its own plan.

What the work can include

A scope built around your goals.

The proposal defines the exact work. These are the areas we can discuss together.

Campaign assessment

Review the market, available budget, current account, and the action the campaign should support.

Message and destination

Connect ad copy to a relevant landing page with a clear contact or booking path.

Tracking review

Check whether calls, forms, or other useful actions are captured accurately.

Ongoing decisions

Review spend, search terms or audiences, and inquiry quality before adjusting the campaign.

In practice

Start with the numbers you can verify.

Brightbox has published a breakdown of a small-budget Google Ads account. The example is useful for understanding campaign tradeoffs, not a promise that another business will get the same cost per lead.

How it works

A clear path from question to action.

01

Define the outcome

Choose the service, audience, budget, and inquiry action to measure.

02

Build the campaign path

Align the ad, landing page, and contact method.

03

Review and refine

Use observed campaign and lead data to decide what to keep or change.

How we judge progress

Measure the outcome that matters.

Evaluate campaign spend alongside tracked inquiries and their quality. Platform-reported conversions should be checked against actual calls or form records before describing them as sales leads.

Questions before you inquire

What would you like to know?

Is ad spend included in a management quote?

Campaign budget and management scope should be stated separately in the proposal.

Should I start with Google or Facebook?

That depends on whether customers are actively searching or need to discover the offer, along with your budget and creative assets.

Can ads replace a good website?

A clear destination and working inquiry path matter because an ad only brings someone to the next step.

Can you promise a cost per lead?

No. Costs vary by market, offer, competition, page quality, and the accuracy of tracking.
