How much should a small business spend on advertising?

There is no universal advertising budget for a small business. Start with the area you serve, the customers you want to reach, the likely cost of a qualified enquiry and a test budget you can sustain. Account separately for ad spend, management and creative production.

How much do Facebook and Instagram Ads cost?

Studio 17 lists Meta or TikTok Ads management at €450 per month for one channel with up to €1,500 monthly ad spend. Initial campaign setup costs €300; static ad creative costs €100 and video creative up to 30 seconds costs €200, with filming and talent extra. The advertising budget is separate from these service fees.

What is included in Meta Ads campaign management?

The €450 monthly Meta or TikTok Ads management service covers one channel, optimisation, budget pacing, audience management and reporting, for ad spend up to €1,500 per month. Initial campaign setup and high-volume creative production are separate. The proposal confirms tracking, creative responsibilities and the budget paid to the platform.

What is the difference between Google Ads and Meta Ads?

Google Search Ads can reach people actively searching for a product or service. Meta Ads reach selected audiences on Facebook and Instagram through visual content, including people who are not searching at that moment. Choose around demand, audience, creative resources and the cost of a qualified enquiry; the channels can also work together.

Do you create ad creatives and manage campaigns?

Yes. Campaign delivery may involve strategy, tracking, audience setup, creative assets and reporting. Confirm each responsibility in the proposal.

Do you offer Instagram and Facebook advertising?

Yes. Studio 17 works with advertising campaigns across Facebook and Instagram through Meta Ads. The brief should establish the offer, audience, destination, creative assets and conversion tracking; the ad budget is paid separately.

Can you run lead generation campaigns?

Yes. Lead generation campaigns connect relevant ads with forms, landing pages or messaging and track qualified enquiries rather than just clicks.

Do you offer influencer and UGC advertising?

Yes. Influencer and UGC advertising can demonstrate a product through creators. Review rights, disclosures, authenticity and performance metrics.

How soon can paid advertising generate enquiries?

Paid campaigns can start generating traffic soon after approval, but qualified enquiries depend on the offer, audience, creative and landing page. Allow a testing period to review lead quality and conversion tracking before judging performance.

How do you track advertising conversions?

Advertising conversions can be tracked through website events such as submitted forms, completed purchases and calls, supported by CRM lead outcomes. Confirm that tags, consent settings and attribution are functioning before interpreting campaign return.

Can Meta Ads generate qualified business leads?

Meta lead campaigns can generate enquiries, but qualified leads depend on targeting, offer, form design and sales follow-up.

Should I run Google Search Ads or Performance Max?

Search Ads capture stated intent; Performance Max runs across several Google surfaces with broader automation. Fit depends on goals and tracking.

What makes a good Google Ads landing page?

A strong landing page matches the ad promise, explains the offer clearly and makes conversion easy on mobile.

How do you measure Google Ads return on investment?

Compare attributable revenue or qualified pipeline value against total campaign costs; validate data quality before calculating ROI.

Which social media advertising platform is best for small businesses?

Choose channels based on audience behaviour, buying stage, creative resources and whether customers are actively searching.

How do I choose creative formats for social ads?

Match creative to placements and objectives: short vertical video for feeds, clear stills for simple offers, and testing for uncertainty.

Why are my social ads getting clicks but no enquiries?

Clicks without enquiries may reflect mismatched targeting, misleading creative, slow pages or unclear offers. Review the full journey.

How do influencer advertising campaigns work?

Influencer advertising starts with choosing a creator whose audience matches the product and agreeing on a brief, deliverables and usage rights. The creator produces sponsored content, which can be published on their account, licensed for paid ads or both. Campaigns should include disclosure requirements, approval steps and measurement such as qualified visits or sales, not follower count alone.

How should I choose an influencer for my brand?

Assess audience relevance, credibility, engagement quality and commercial fit rather than follower counts alone.

How can I measure influencer campaign performance?

Track reach, visits, referral codes, qualified leads and sales where measurable; distinguish exposure from direct conversions.

What is UGC content in marketing?

User-generated content originally means material people create about a brand or experience, such as customer photos and reviews. Paid UGC creators also produce content in a similar personal style for a brand to use. Commissioned creator content should not be presented as an independent customer review.

How is UGC different from influencer marketing?

UGC refers to the content style or source; influencer marketing leverages a creator's audience and reach. They can overlap.

Can UGC videos be used in paid advertising?

UGC videos can be used in ads if you have appropriate usage rights and advertising disclosures.

What is the difference between email advertising and email marketing?

Email advertising can refer to paid placements in others' newsletters; email marketing covers campaigns to your own permission-based list.

What makes an effective promotional email campaign?

Relevant segmentation, a clear offer, readable design and strong deliverability practices improve email campaign quality.
