Facebook Ads for what nobody's searching for yet.
Search captures demand that already exists. Facebook creates it, putting the new product, the subscription or the service plan in front of people who weren't looking, but recognise the need when they see it. Run well, it's a different job from Google Ads, and we manage it as one: right objective, real creative, honest measurement.
where the money leaks
The three classic Facebook mistakes.
Boosting posts
The blue button buys engagement: likes from anywhere, from anyone, optimised for nothing you invoice. Real campaigns are built in the ads platform with a conversion objective and an audience chosen on purpose.
Optimising for the wrong event
Tell Meta to find you link clicks and it will, from the people most likely to click and least likely to buy. The objective has to be the thing you actually want: the sign-up, the purchase, the qualified enquiry, tracked properly, so the algorithm hunts customers rather than clickers.
Stock-photo fatigue
Polished generic creative dies fast in a feed. The ads that keep working look like the real thing: the product in hand, the customer using it, the team behind it.
what we actually do
The demand-creation engine.
Offer & audience framing
What are we putting in front of whom, and why would they care this month? Campaigns built around offers that suit consideration (trials, demos, launches, seasonal ranges), not urgent needs people search for instead.
Creative from your own footage
Short demos, customers using what you sell, the people who serve them, assembled from what you actually make and do, refreshed before fatigue sets in. Where the photo and video library doesn't exist yet, we help you build the habit that fills it.
Fencing & measurement
Audiences and geography as tight as the platform allows, existing customers excluded where they should be, conversions tracked through measurement that joins spend to customers, and results judged against what a customer is worth, not against reach.
the honest bit
When Facebook is the wrong first move.
If people search for what you sell at the moment they need it (a same-day courier, an emergency vet, an accountant the week tax is due), Google captures that intent and should almost always come first. Facebook earns its budget for postponeable, considered or visual purchases, and for staying known between them.
It also punishes weak landing points: an ad can't rescue a website that fumbles the visit. We'll check the landing before recommending the spend.
straight answers
Asked often.
Google Ads or Facebook Ads: which comes first?
If people already search for what you sell, Google captures that demand and usually comes first. Facebook earns its place for things people postpone, haven't heard of or don't know to price (a new category, a considered purchase, a membership) and for staying visible between purchases. The split is a measurement question, not a loyalty one.
What ad creative actually works?
The real product, real customers, real use. People recognise authenticity, and the thing itself in use beats polished stock imagery. We build creative from what you actually make and do, and if there's no photo or video habit in the business yet, we help you start one.
Can you target only the market we serve?
Radius, region and postcode targeting gets close, not perfect: platform location data is an estimate. We fence as tightly as the platform allows, then watch where customers actually come from; that second fence is the one that matters.
