Common questions

Most asked about Meta Ads.

Why run Meta Ads alongside Google Ads?

Google captures demand that already exists (people searching). Meta creates demand by putting your offer in front of people who weren't looking yet. For most brands the two channels compound: Google closes the warm audience Meta warmed up. Running both, with proper attribution, is what unlocks scale beyond what search alone can deliver.

+

How much does Meta Ads management cost?

Retainers start at £2,000/month for accounts under £20k monthly spend, scaling with account complexity and creative volume. Meta needs more creative iteration than Google, so the fee reflects the ongoing production and testing cadence, not just campaign management.

+

Do you handle creative or just media buying?

Creative strategy is baked in. We brief and direct the creative (hooks, angles, formats, static vs video) and iterate weekly based on what performance data says. For static assets and short-form video we work with a small trusted network of editors and designers. If you have an in-house creative team we plug directly into their pipeline.

+

Does Meta still work after iOS 14.5 and cookie loss?

Yes, but the game changed. Success now depends on server-side signal (Conversions API), broader targeting with AI-driven optimisation (Advantage+), and creative that does the segmentation the old audiences used to. Accounts that adapted are thriving. Accounts still running 2020-era lookalike stacks on browser-only pixels are struggling. We set up the modern stack from day one.

+

What campaign objectives do you use?

For e-commerce, mostly Advantage+ Shopping Campaigns with catalogue integration and structured creative testing. For lead gen, a mix of on-Meta Lead Ads (with instant forms) and conversion campaigns driving to landing pages. The right choice depends on your CRM integration and how quickly your sales team follows up, we walk through this in the audit.

+

Facebook vs Instagram, which one matters more?

For most UK brands the split is roughly 55% Facebook, 45% Instagram, though Instagram skews younger and more visual-forward. We rarely run them separately; Meta's placement optimiser learns which surface converts best for each audience segment. Manually splitting them costs performance in almost every case.

+

How is conversion tracking set up on Meta?

Meta Pixel installed site-wide for browser-side events, paired with Conversions API on the server for the events that matter (leads, purchases). Server-side is now mandatory for reliable measurement, browser pixels miss 20 to 40% of conversions on iOS Safari. We wire both, deduplicate with matching event IDs, and use Enhanced Matching (hashed email/phone) for stronger attribution.

+

Can you run Meta Ads for a B2B business?

Yes, but expectations need to be right. B2B on Meta works for demand generation (getting on the radar of decision-makers), thought-leadership content promotion, and top-of-funnel lead gen for lower-consideration offers. For direct SaaS demos and enterprise sales, LinkedIn Ads or search intent tends to convert better. We're honest about which channel suits which stage of your funnel.
