What makes us different
Google Partner. No spend markup. Transparent reporting. Built for Randburg’s demanding paid search market.
Google Partner status requires meeting performance thresholds, maintaining certified team members, and demonstrating consistent client results. We don’t buy the badge we earn it through client performance. For Randburg campaigns, this means direct Google support access, beta feature access, and verified expertise that amateur accounts and DIY campaigns cannot match.
Many Randburg PPC agencies mark up your Google Ads spend by 10-20% as hidden income. Juicy Designs charges a transparent management fee only your ad spend goes directly to Google, not through our account. At Randburg CPCs, a 15% spend markup is an enormous and entirely hidden cost. Our fee is R6,500/mo. That is the entire cost.
No junior campaign manager learning at your expense. Cobus and Wynand van der Westhuizen are directly involved in your Randburg Google Ads account, run by a founder-led Pretoria team. When CPCs spike or a campaign goes off-target, you hear from us within hours not at the next monthly meeting.

Client results
Here’s what Randburg businesses say about our Google Ads management work.
“We were paying R380 per click for ‘wealth manager Randburg’ and not tracking a single conversion properly. Juicy fixed the tracking first, restructured the campaigns, and within 3 months our CPC was at R183 and our ROAS was 4.8x. The difference between a poorly managed and a well-managed Google account in Randburg’s financial market is enormous.”
“Our Google Shopping campaigns were costing us money high spend, low ROAS. Juicy rebuilt our product feed, restructured the campaigns by product category, and set up proper conversion tracking. Our Shopping ROAS went from 1.4x to 5.2x in four months. That’s the difference between losing money and building a profitable business from our Cresta store.”
“Legal Google Ads in Randburg is brutally competitive and expensive. We’d tried managing it in-house and with two previous agencies both disasters. Juicy restructured everything from scratch and we now generate 38 qualified leads per month at a cost per lead we can actually justify. The negative keyword discipline alone changed everything.”
