How we work

Simple, transparent, results-focused

Here is what a Sandton digital marketing project with Juicy Designs looks like from day one.

  1. Market & Competitor Audit

    We audit your digital presence and benchmark competitors across all channels. We assess the keyword landscape and CPC economics, review your LinkedIn positioning, and set channel priorities. Free 30-minute strategy call included. You get the full audit report before you sign a contract.

    Week 1
  2. Strategy & Channel Setup

    A 90-day strategy document covers target audiences, channel mix, content pillars, and KPIs. We build the Google Ads account structure, set up LinkedIn campaigns, and install tracking pixels. We map the CRM integration and agree the attribution model. All assets are ready before spend starts.

    Week 2-3
  3. Launch & Optimise

    Campaigns go live with careful bid management for the first two weeks. This builds baseline data. The content programme starts publishing. We split-test LinkedIn Ads on creative and audience. In months 1-3 we optimise weekly and report fortnightly to speed up learning.

    Month 1-3
  4. Scale & Report

    Monthly executive reporting covers qualified lead volume, cost per lead by channel, LinkedIn engagement by seniority, Google Ads ROAS, and content reach. We suggest scaling the budget once you meet ROAS targets consistently. No long-term lock-in. The notice period is 30 days after month 3.

    Ongoing
  5. Measure & evolve

    We review results at 30, 60, and 90 days. If the market responds differently than expected, we adapt. Your brand and strategy stay current and competitive.

Frequently asked questions

Got questions?

Straight answers about digital marketing in Sandton. No jargon, no runaround.

What digital channels work best for Sandton B2B businesses?

For Sandton B2B businesses, LinkedIn is the highest-value channel. It reaches financial professionals, executives, and decision-makers. Google Search Ads are vital for capturing high-intent searches from Sandton’s professional services buyers. This is true above all for legal, financial advisory, and corporate consulting.

Expert content and email marketing to curated professional lists stay highly effective. Meta advertising plays a support role for brand awareness and remarketing to site visitors.

The exact mix depends on your audience, deal size, and sales cycle length. We always start with a channel audit before we recommend a budget split.

What are realistic CPCs for Sandton financial keywords?

Sandton financial services keywords are among South Africa’s most expensive in Google Ads. Terms like “asset management Sandton”, “financial advisor Johannesburg”, and “investment adviser Sandton” typically cost R200-R800 per click depending on competition and quality scores. Legal services keywords range from R150-R500 per click.

These high CPCs mean campaign management quality has a big impact on ROI. A poorly built campaign wastes R30,000-R80,000 per month. Our Google Ads management tackles this with quality score work, which lowers CPC while improving ad position.

How do you approach thought leadership marketing for Sandton professional services?

Expert content in the Sandton market needs real depth, not recycled industry content. We work with your senior professionals to develop original analysis, market commentary, regulatory viewpoints, and expert opinions. We publish these as long-form articles, LinkedIn posts, white papers, and media contributions.

We handle the writing, editing, SEO optimisation, and distribution. This content usually takes 3-6 months to build measurable brand awareness in the institutional market. Over 12+ months, though, it builds authority that beats paid advertising on cost per qualified lead.

Do you manage LinkedIn marketing for Sandton financial services firms?

Yes. LinkedIn is a core channel for Sandton financial services marketing. We manage LinkedIn company pages, personal executive profiles, LinkedIn Ads (Sponsored Content, InMail, Lead Gen Forms), and organic content strategies designed for financial professionals.

We know the rules around financial services marketing on LinkedIn. We build compliant campaigns that still convert well. LinkedIn management is available on its own from R12,000/mo. You can also take it as part of our Sandton digital marketing packages from R22,000/mo.

What ROAS should premium Sandton market clients expect?

ROAS in the Sandton premium market works differently from consumer e-commerce. One new financial advisory client, law firm mandate, or asset management relationship is worth R50,000-R500,000+ in lifetime revenue. So a ROAS benchmark of 3-5x on ad spend is conservative.

Our Sandton financial services clients usually see R4-R8 in revenue per rand of digital marketing spend within 6 months. The ratio improves as we learn more from each campaign. We work out ROAS on lifetime value, not just the immediate transaction.

How do you report digital marketing performance for financial services clients?

Financial services clients require precise, compliance-aware reporting.

We provide monthly executive-level reports. They cover qualified lead volume and quality scoring, cost per qualified lead by channel, and conversion rates by campaign and keyword. They also cover LinkedIn engagement by seniority and firm type, plus revenue attribution where CRM data is available.

Reports come in boardroom-ready PDF format, with live dashboard access included. We work under NDA. We do not share client data, campaign benchmarks, or strategy details with any third parties.
