Mahfuz Khan (মা্হফুজ খান)'s Review Sourced from Google
We had a deeply disappointing experience with Catch Bangladesh during the Pahela Baishakh event held on April 13, 14, and 15, 2025. We paid BDT 35,000 for a 10x10 ft stall space based on several grand promises that were ultimately not fulfilled. These included appearances by high-profile performers like James and Xefer, the presence of a chief advisor to inaugurate the event, 24/7 stall security, clean water supply, and more space than what was actually allocated.
Unfortunately, the stall was not even completed by the start of the event on the 13th, and the banner—originally promised a day in advance—arrived two days late. The lack of proper coordination, broken promises, and poor event management resulted in widespread dissatisfaction among both stall owners and visitors.
Given our experience, we will not be working with Catch Bangladesh again and strongly advise others to exercise caution before entering into any agreements with them.

In a SEA training course with Thomas Weber as a lecturer, I enjoyed very practice-oriented and transparent Google Ads training.
I found his extensive experience and professional expertise impressive. In 2 days he conveyed the complex topic to me very well.
Later, as a consultant, Thomas developed an extremely efficient lead strategy for me with Google Ads, which brought me 4-digit website visits in a short time.
His expertise and relaxed manner make him an excellent specialist; I can recommend him without reservation.

Exceptional Service and Outstanding Results
Kathie and Mike at Absolute Motion Video exceeded all expectations in creating a TV commercial for our funeral home. Kathie worked tirelessly to develop a thoughtful and professional script, incorporating historic and current photographs of our funeral home, including the interior service areas and the exterior. They even included special “donut” shots to highlight our unique services, including our beloved therapy dog, Jake.
On the day of filming, Kathie and Mike were patient, professional, and meticulous, ensuring every detail was perfect. The result was the best commercial we’ve ever had, beautifully showcasing our services and the care we provide to our community.
I highly recommend Absolute Motion Video for any video or commercial needs. Their dedication and expertise are unmatched, and I will certainly continue to use their services in the future.

Mike is absolutely the best!! I run a small nonprofit and we have needed a range of videos over time - from time lapse to events to a training video. At each stage, Mike has been there to guide us and put together the most thoughtful, high quality videos that represent our brand and mission. He has integrated and update old material into new videos to keep our message fresh and relevant.

Bonfire have been the most incredible agency to partner with. Right from the beginning, they cared deeply about our brand campaign, our mission and goals, and undertook deep research to understand our industry and brand. They asked thoughtful questions about who we were to ensure they represented our brand not only accurately but truthfully, strongly and dynamically. Luke, Rene, Abbie and the wider team went above and beyond every step of the way - delivering a campaign that not only was resonant but achieved huge results too. Couldn't recommend them enough.

Since 2008 the kind and generous folks at PM Advertising have created and maintained our Old Friends Farm website pro bono. This is a HUGE donation to our non-profit each year. The TALENT of each individual at PM is amazing. During our years with them, they have totally re-created the site once, giving it a fresh new look. The design is gorgeous, flows beautifully on mobile devices, and we never have problems with downtime. They are always quick to help out and listen to ideas in a professional but fun manner. We highly recommend them!

They called, I wouldn't like those calls, but something worked differently in their minds, they probably managed to argue. We launched an advertisement/inquiry generation works. I didn't have problems with the number of orders before, but with Kaijus' help, I have such a flow of clients where I can specifically select those I want to work with. I recommend 1000 percent. Every penny spent was worth it.

Worst experience. As a fresher I agree that I had little to no experience and constantly struggled to complete my tasks assigned as a PR executive . I had tried to ask for help every time and was always left feeling like I was not worth it. I hope no fresher in the industry goes through that. I felt incompetent because I was maybe unintentionally triggered but I wished that they took a better approach instead of deciding to ignore what was the root cause and jumped to a bizarre conclusion. Anyways I still wish them a good luck ahead, wish that nobody has to go through that

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.

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 size
How agencies choose advertising channels
Typical channels
Small business
Focus on low-cost, high-return channels with quick feedback. Prioritize direct response and easy tracking.
Google Ads (search), Facebook/Instagram, TikTok
Mid-size business
Balance growth and efficiency. Test multiple channels and scale what works. Combine awareness and conversions.
Paid social, Google Ads, YouTube, programmatic display
Large business
Maximize reach and brand impact while maintaining performance. Use a full-funnel strategy across many channels.
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 spend
Typical fee
$10,000-$100,000
8%-10%
$100,000-$1M
5%-8%
$1M-$10M
3.5%-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 in2 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 take8 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
