How much does Google Ads management cost in Australia?

3P Digital manages paid media from $500 a month, plus your ad spend, which stays under your control. That covers Google, Meta, LinkedIn and Microsoft Ads run as one strategy, with conversion tracking set up properly and reporting against cost per lead and return on ad spend rather than clicks. It is month to month with no lock-in, and you can also choose a pay-for-performance model where part of our fee is tied to results.

Paid Media FAQs

Straight answers on cost, budget, platforms and reporting.

Management starts at $500 a month, plus your ad spend, which you keep full control of. That is AI-era pricing with the saving passed to you. It is month to month with no lock-in, and you can also choose a pay-for-performance model where part of our fee is tied to results.

You will see initial data within 24 to 48 hours of launch, but meaningful, statistically sound results usually take 2 to 4 weeks. We gather enough data before making major optimisations so the changes are driven by evidence, not guesswork.

It depends on your industry and goals, but we generally suggest at least $2,000 to $3,000 a month for Google Ads and $1,500 to $2,000 for paid social to allow proper testing and meaningful data. That budget is your ad spend, separate from our management fee, and it stays under your control.

We pick the mix from your audience and goals. B2B businesses often do well on LinkedIn and Google, while B2C sees stronger results on Meta or Google Shopping. We recommend the right platforms rather than spreading budget thin across all of them.

You keep full control of your advertising budget at all times. We recommend allocations and scaling opportunities, but spending decisions remain yours, and we always seek approval before any significant change.

A live dashboard plus a clear monthly report covering the metrics that matter: cost per lead, conversions and return on ad spend, not just impressions and clicks. We also schedule regular calls to talk through performance and the plan ahead.
