FAQ
Common Questions
What people usually want to know before scheduling that first conversation.
- What does AdsTalent actually do?
- We run end-to-end digital marketing programs for U.S. small businesses. The work covers SEO, paid search, paid social, organic social, email, reputation management, and conversion rate optimization. Programs are tailored to your industry and the channels where your customers actually look for businesses like yours.
- Who does AdsTalent serve?
- Small and medium-sized businesses across the United States, across 15+ industries. We work with single-location operators and small chains. We do not serve enterprise or Fortune 500 clients.
- How is AdsTalent different from a typical agency?
- AdsTalent runs programs at the small-business scale specifically. Most agencies are built for enterprise budgets and adapt down badly. Our programs are structured for owner-operators: tight scope, defined outcomes, and a team that picks up the phone. AdsTalent has run programs like this for small businesses since 2006.
- How much does this cost?
- Every program is scoped to the situation: industry, geography, channel mix, and how aggressive the growth target is. After the first call we send a written proposal with the work, the timeline, and the fee. No minimums, no surprise charges.
- How long does an engagement typically last?
- Most clients run a 90-day foundation phase followed by ongoing month-to-month optimization. Some run a single-channel program for a specific goal (e.g., local SEO for a new location); others run integrated programs across SEO, paid search, and social. We do not lock anyone into long-term contracts.
- Do you work with my industry?
- We have programs for 15+ industries: dental, roofing, real estate, plumbing, moving and storage, lawn and garden, law firms, insurance, HVAC, home improvement, healthcare, construction and maintenance, cleaning services, auto parts and repair, and auto dealerships. If your industry isn’t on the list, the conversation starts with whether we have run programs in your space.
- How do you measure success?
- Outcomes that matter to your business, not vanity metrics. For most clients this means qualified leads, phone calls, form fills, store visits, or revenue attributed to the channels we manage. We agree on the metrics in the proposal and report against them monthly.
- How do I get started?
- Schedule a 30-minute call. It is free, there is no obligation, and most prospects leave the call with more clarity about their marketing whether or not we end up working together.
