Frequently Asked Questions

What should you consider before contacting advertising agencies?

Before contacting ad agencies, you must define your priority business objectives, success metrics, ad spend limit, expected timeline, internal decision-maker, and available resources. 

Without that foundation, agencies will make different assumptions, which can make proposals difficult to compare and lead you to hire agencies for the wrong problem. 

With 71% of CMOs reporting that they lack the budget to fully execute their strategy, it is vital to distinguish between "must-have" and "nice-to-have" campaign features before the first discovery call. 

When should you hire a specialist advertising agency vs. a full-service digital marketing agency?

Hire a specialist advertising agency when you are experiencing issues with paid media execution and results. Conversely, hire a full-service digital marketing agency when the larger problem is coordination across channels, brand, content, and web.   

Consider specialized ad agencies when:  

  • Paid search, paid social, or media buying is your growth lever, but performance is inconsistent.  
  • You already have brand, web, and content support in-house.  
  • You need faster testing, tighter optimization, and deep platform expertise (e.g., Google Ads and paid media).  

Consider full-service digital marketing agencies when:  

  • Your message, funnel, creative, and channel mix need to work together.  
  • You want one partner for different marketing services, such as social media, search engine optimization, email marketing, and performance marketing.  
  • The primary issue is fragmented execution and not just ad performance. 

How much should you realistically budget for advertising?

A realistic advertising budget typically ranges from 5% to 15% of your total annual revenue, depending on your growth stage and industry competitiveness. 

For example, small businesses typically dedicate 2%-4% of their revenue to PPC advertising, with aggressive, growth-stage organizations typically spending more. 

As a market benchmark, Gartner's 2025 CMO Spend Survey found CMOs reporting marketing budgets at 7.7% of company revenue and paid online channels accounting for 69% of digital spend.  

The practical takeaway is to ask each shortlisted agency for a minimum viable testing budget by channel, then reject plans that cannot generate enough volume to prove or disprove the strategy. 

How should you measure the success of your advertising campaigns?

Measure the success of your advertising campaigns by tracking bottom-line outcomes.  

For lead generation campaigns, success metrics may include qualified leads, cost per sales-qualified lead, close rate by source, and pipeline contribution. 

For eCommerce brands, success metrics to consider include customer acquisition cost, contribution margin, repeat purchase behavior, and return on ad spend (ROAS).  

While platform metrics, such as click-through rate (CTR) and cost per click (CPC), are valuable, consider these as diagnostic metrics rather than success metrics.  

How long does it take to see the results of your advertising campaigns?

Advertising campaigns may produce results within a few weeks or days. However, sustained ad performance may take 1-3+ months.   

Typically, ad agencies dedicate the first 30 days to campaign ramp-up, data gathering, experimentation, testing, and conversion lag.   

Then, they allot days 31-60 for campaign optimization. After 90 days from the campaign launch, you may record tangible outcomes, such as increased leads, higher ticket sales, and revenue growth.

The actual timeline before you see results will depend on current performance, ad channel, ad quality, target niche, industry competition, and the aggressiveness of your advertising campaign. 

What common mistakes do businesses make when choosing their ad agencies?

Common mistakes include choosing based on the lowest hourly rates, being overly influenced by the pitch, and failing to confirm ownership of accounts, data, and reporting. 

To avoid these mistakes, look for data-backed case studies that match your industry, market niche, and campaign type.  

Also, review client feedback and request client references to better understand the agency's project management style, account ownership practices, reporting standards, and approach to campaign optimization.
