    • Lucy Ji

      Digital Advertising Review from Lucy Ji

      We brought Y'all in to audit our Meta and Google campaigns and tell us what was broken. They dug into campaign setups, creative performance, audience targeting, and spend efficiency, then handed us a clear, actionable plan to fix it. The results were hard to argue with. ROAS jumped 184.6%, purchase routing became smoother, and our budget started working a lot harder.What impressed us most was how tailored everything felt. They took the time to understand our brand before making a single recommendation. Nothing was generic. They also walked us through the findings in a recorded session and hosted a live Q&A so nothing got lost in translation. Professional, responsive, and genuinely collaborative from start to finish. No complaints at all.

    • Kristen Elworthy
      Kristen Elworthy Marketing & Growth at Lawnbright

      Digital Marketing Review from Kristen Elworthy

      Y'all has been fantastic to work with for us, a small e-commerce company heading into a scaling year. We found Y'all when looking to up our creative game in 2026 and have been thrilled with their ideas and execution, as well as how quickly they have learned our brand.We quickly brought them on to do paid media buying as well and they have been instrumental in helping us scale spend and revenue during our busy season. Most importantly, they are collaborative, responsive, smart and data driven.For a boostrapped ecomm brand, bringing on agencies is always a huge financial commitment and it can be nerve wracking. Y'all's founder and team clearly care about their clients and outcomes, they go the extra mile, and they are committed to their success. We find them to be true partners.

    • Neha Salgaonkar
      Neha Salgaonkar Director of DTC at Save Trees
      5.0★

      Performance Marketing Review from Neha Salgaonkar

      When we started working with Y'all, we were spending just $2,000 to $3,000 a month on Meta. Our goal was to scale that spend profitably while keeping customer acquisition costs in check. They did exactly that. New customer acquisition grew measurably and ROAS moved in the right direction, all without blowing past our CAC targets.What made them stand out was how plugged in they were. The team monitored our account closely, often sending daily updates and making quick adjustments without needing to be prompted. They never felt like an outside agency. They genuinely cared about the brand and it showed in how they worked. No complaints from our end.

      Social Media Marketing Review from Marc "Jake" Jacobson

      The Quimby Team has been great to work with. I challenged them launching Social Media Platforms for a 45-year old, multi-faceted apparel manufacturer that sells both wholesale + direct-to-consumer, that has never been active on Social and has never truly marketed itself. And, a significant part of our business is Sports Licensed Apparel + Golf, where we Sponsor PGA and LPGA Golfers. So, a lot of our social strategy happens in REAL-TIME. This is an INCREDIBLE CHALLENGE for anyone! Overall, they have done a really terrific job! Our best work comes with planning and collaboration, as well as being reactionary to real-time sports event results. Together, we have developed a strong creative + messaging platform that provides brand consistency. We have also developed realistic KPI's. And, Quimby has delivered on all.

7 Frequently Asked Questions About Media Buying Agencies

Which platforms do media buying companies manage?

Media buying firms manage major advertising platforms where your audience spends time, both online and offline. They handle campaigns across multiple channels to reach people at different stages of the buying journey and to improve overall results.

  • Paid search and social 
    Agencies run ads on platforms like Google, Bing, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok. These channels drive targeted traffic, leads, and sales based on user intent and behavior.
  • Programmatic and display 
    They use demand-side platforms to buy ad space automatically across websites and apps. This includes banner, video, and native ads, all optimized in real time.
  • CTV and OTT (Streaming ads) 
    A media buying firm places ads on streaming services and smart TVs to help brands reach audiences who no longer watch traditional cable.
  • Traditional media 
    They still buy ad space on TV, radio, print, and billboards when it makes sense for reach and brand awareness.
  • Audio and Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) 
    Ads on Spotify, podcasts, and digital billboards in public spaces like malls, highways, and transit stations.

What is the difference between media planning and media buying agencies?

Media planning agencies decide where, when, and how to advertise. Media buying firms execute that plan by purchasing ad space and managing placements.

Planning sets the strategy; buying delivers the ads.

FocusAudience, channels, timing, budgetNegotiation, placement, delivery
GoalChoose the best mix of platformsGet the best price and placements
TasksResearch audience, select channels, allocate budgetPurchase ads, manage bids, optimize placements
OutputMedia planLive campaign and ad placements

How do media buyers choose the right channels for a campaign?

Media buyers choose channels by matching audience behavior, campaign goals, and budget to the platforms most likely to deliver results. They rely on data to see where people spend time and shift spend toward what performs best. 

Business sizeHow agencies choose advertising channelsTypical channels
Small businessFocus on low-cost, high-return channels with quick feedback. Prioritize direct response and easy tracking. Google Ads (search), Facebook/Instagram, TikTok
Mid-size businessBalance growth and efficiency. Test multiple channels and scale what works. Combine awareness and conversions.Paid social, Google Ads, YouTube, programmatic display
Large businessMaximize reach and brand impact while maintaining performance. Use a full-funnel strategy across many channels.TV, CTV/OTT, programmatic, paid social, search, OOH

Core logic stays the same at every level: reach the right audience, support the campaign goal, and invest where return is strongest. 

How much do media buying companies' services cost?

Media buying firms usually charge a percentage of your ad spend, typically between 3% and 10%, or a flat monthly fee depending on campaign size. Smaller budgets pay higher percentages, while large budgets get lower rates.

Typical pricing models:

  • Percentage of ad spend: 5% to 10% for most campaigns
  • Flat monthly fee: $2,000 to $15,000+, depending on scope
  • Project-based (strategy/planning): $1,500 to $50,000+
  • Setup fees: 2% to 3% of initial spend (one-time)

How pricing scales:

Ad spendTypical fee
$10,000-$100,0008%-10%
$100,000-$1M5%-8%
$1M-$10M3.5%-5%
$10M+3%-4%

Costs depend on your ad budget, the number of channels, campaign complexity, targeting depth, creative needs, and the amount of ongoing management and reporting required.

You are not just paying for ad placement. You're paying for strategy, execution, optimization, and performance improvement. 

Is there a minimum spend?

There is no strict minimum spend, but in practice, you need at least $1,000 to $3,000 per month to generate enough data for optimization and results. Very small budgets, like $5 per day, rarely perform because they don’t generate enough clicks or conversions.

For better performance, campaigns should aim for at least 30 conversions per month, which often requires higher spend depending on your cost per click.

More advanced channels like programmatic or CTV usually require $5,000 to $10,000+ to run effectively, and many agencies set similar minimums to ensure campaigns are worth managing.

How long does it take to see results from media buying?

You can see initial results in 2 to 4 weeks, but most campaigns need 2 to 3 months to stabilize and deliver consistent ROI.

Early signals like impressions, clicks, and some leads often appear within days to a few weeks, especially on paid social and search. However, platforms need time to learn and optimize, so stronger and more reliable results usually take 8 to 12 weeks.

For more complex campaigns, such as B2B or high-ticket offers, meaningful revenue impact can take 3 to 6 months due to longer sales cycles and ongoing optimization.

What industries benefit from media buying services?

Media buying services deliver the most value to industries that depend on steady customer acquisition, strong competition, and precise targeting.

Those industries include:

  • eCommerce and retail: Drive online sales with targeted ads and retargeting
  • Real estate and construction: Promote listings and reach qualified buyers
  • Healthcare and wellness: Attract new patients with compliant, targeted campaigns
  • Technology and SaaS: Reach decision-makers in competitive markets
  • Hospitality and tourism: Capture demand with seasonal and location-based ads
  • Financial services and insurance: Generate leads and build trust through education
  • Automotive and local services: Drive inquiries and bookings through search and local ads
