Budget requirements vary by industry, funnel and competitive intensity, but many advertisers need several thousand dollars per month to collect statistically useful conversion data; smaller budgets can still work if campaigns are tightly targeted to high-intent keywords or remarketing audiences. Prebo Digital designs spend strategies to prioritise profitable channels and scale when unit economics support it.
For eCommerce campaigns the focus is typically on Shopping, dynamic remarketing and ROAS-driven bidding tied to LTV, while B2B emphasises lead quality, account-based targeting, longer attribution windows and CPL/CPA optimisation. In both cases measurement, funnel optimisation and cross-channel attribution are prioritised to ensure spend drives revenue, not just clicks.
Prebo Digital implements clean data pipelines using GA4, Google Tag Manager, and server-side tracking, and ties platform data to on-site conversions and offline events where applicable to reduce attribution bias. Multi-touch attribution models and consolidated reporting are used to align spend with revenue and lifetime value rather than platform-reported last-click metrics.
Prebo Digital offers end-to-end Google Ads services including account audits, campaign strategy and setup (Search, Shopping, Display, Video, Remarketing), bid and budget management, conversion tracking implementation, and ongoing performance optimisations focused on revenue outcomes.
Time to profitability depends on product margins, funnel conversion rates, tracking accuracy and budget; an initial data-collection and learning phase commonly takes 4-8 weeks, with structured optimisation and scaling typically assessed over several months. Prebo Digital focuses on iterative testing and measurement to improve profitability rather than short-term traffic metrics.

Three pricing models
True cost components
Evaluate by revenue impact
PPC campaign management pricing in United States typically falls into three common models: percentage of ad spend, fixed monthly retainer, and performance- or outcome-based fees. Each model affects agency incentives, measurement clarity, and ultimately your cost-per-acquisition (CPA) and marketing efficiency ratio (MER).
Choose a model based on lifecycle stage, average order value (AOV), and current CAC. For example, a Shopify store with an AOV of $85 and an existing CAC of $45 might prefer a retainer plus performance bonus to prioritise growth while controlling spend. Conversely, high-budget advertisers often use percentage models for ease of scaling.
Note: reported ranges are typical in the US market and should be validated against a proposed scope of work. Example figures are estimates for planning and budgeting purposes.

Total monthly cost = ad spend + management fees + additional services (CRO, tracking, creative). Example US scenarios (estimates):
| Business type | Monthly ad spend | Typical management fee | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Early-stage Shopify store | $5,000 | $1,500-$3,000 (retainer) | Focus on testing and CAC reduction |
| Scaling DTC brand | $50,000 | 10%-15% of spend | Includes optimization, attribution, creative testing |
| B2B SaaS | $20,000 | $3,000-$7,000 (hybrid) | LinkedIn and search-focused, lead-quality tracking |
At Prebo Digital we emphasise clean attribution and profitability over vanity metrics. A structured engagement follows Strategy → Build → Test → Scale → Report so fees reflect ongoing analytics, experimentation, and measurable MER improvements. Read about our approach on the homepage.
