Is paid ads management
right for you?

Not every business is ready for paid advertising – and I'd rather tell you that upfront than take your money and waste it. Answer honestly and I'll give you a straight answer.

No email required. No sales pitch. Just the truth.

Question 1 of 6 0%
Question 1 of 6

Do people actively search for what you sell?

Think about whether someone would type a phrase into Google to find your product or service.

A
Yes – people search for this all the time
e.g. "plumber near me", "dental implants Calgary", "wedding photographer"
B
Somewhat – there's some search demand but it's niche
People search, but not in huge volumes
C
Not really – it's a new concept or impulse buy
People don't know to search for it yet
Question 2 of 6

Do you have a working website?

Paid ads send people somewhere. That somewhere needs to do some work.

A
Yes – it's live, looks decent, and has a clear call to action
Contact form, phone number, or buy button that works
B
Yes, but it needs some work
It's live but I'm not sure it converts well
C
No – not yet
Still working on it or using social media only
Question 3 of 6

What's your realistic monthly ad budget?

This is what goes to Google, Meta, or Microsoft – separate from any management fee. Be honest with yourself here.

A
$1,000 or more per month
Enough to gather meaningful data quickly
B
$300 – $1,000 per month
Workable, but we'll need patience – data comes slower
C
Under $300 per month
Probably too thin to learn anything useful right now
Question 4 of 6

What's your main goal right now?

Pick the one that's most true today.

A
Generate leads or sales – I need more customers
Direct response, measurable results
B
Grow faster than organic or word of mouth allows
Things are working but I want to accelerate
C
Build brand awareness in my area or industry
I want more people to know I exist
D
I'm not sure yet – just exploring options
No clear goal defined yet
Question 5 of 6

Have you run paid ads before?

No wrong answer here – just helps me understand where you're starting from.

A
Yes – and it worked reasonably well
I've seen it work and want to do it better
B
Yes – but it didn't go well
Wasted money or just didn't see results
C
No – this would be my first time
Starting fresh, open to learning
Question 6 of 6

How soon are you looking to get started?

Honest timing helps set realistic expectations on both sides.

A
Right now – I'm ready to move
Budget is there, decision is made
B
In the next 1–3 months
Still planning but getting serious
C
Just researching for now
No firm timeline yet

Almost there –
one thing to sort first.

Your situation has real potential, but there's something worth addressing before you spend money on ads. Paid advertising amplifies what's already working – if there's a gap in your foundation, ads will amplify that too.

The most common thing I see: a solid business with a website that isn't quite ready to convert paid traffic. That's a fixable problem – and worth fixing before spending a dollar on ads.

Reach out anyway if you'd like a straight opinion on where you stand. I'd rather give you honest advice now than take your money before you're ready.

Things worth checking before you start

→
Your website: Does it have a clear call to action? Can someone contact you or buy within 10 seconds of landing?
→
Your budget: Ad spend under $300/month makes it very hard to gather enough data to optimize. More runway = better decisions.
→
Your goal: Vague goals produce vague results. "More customers" is a start – but knowing your target cost per lead changes everything.

Not quite yet –
and that's okay.

Based on your answers, paid advertising probably isn't the right move right now. That's not a bad thing – it's just timing. Spending money on ads before the foundation is ready is one of the most common and costly mistakes small businesses make.

The honest truth: ads work best when you have something to send people to, a budget to gather real data, and a goal you can measure. When those things are in place, ads can be incredibly powerful.

Come back when the timing is right – or reach out anyway if you want a straight conversation about what needs to happen first. I don't charge for honest advice.

What to focus on before running ads

→
Build your website first. Even a simple, clean one-pager with a contact form is enough to start. Without it, there's nowhere to send people.
→
Set a clear goal. "Get more customers" isn't a goal. "Get 5 new leads per month at under $50 each" is. Know your number before you spend.
→
Start with organic. Google Business Profile, word of mouth, and local directories cost nothing and can drive real business while you build your ad budget.
