“We were paying far too much per click for ‘furniture shop Roodepoort’ and not tracking a single conversion properly. Juicy fixed the tracking first, restructured the campaigns by product range, and within 3 months our CPC was down 52% and our ROAS was 4.8x. The difference between a poorly managed and a well-managed Google account near Clearwater Mall is enormous.”

YouTube ads build brand awareness and retarget website visitors with compelling video. All three extend your reach beyond search and reduce cost-per-acquisition across the full funnel.

What makes us different
Why Roodepoort businesses choose Juicy Designs for Google Ads
Google Partner. No spend markup. Transparent reporting. Built for Roodepoort and the wider West Rand paid search market.
Google Partner. Genuinely.
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 Roodepoort campaigns, this means direct Google support access, beta feature access, and verified expertise that amateur accounts and DIY campaigns cannot match.
Zero spend markup. Always.
Many Johannesburg 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 metro CPCs, a 15% spend markup is an enormous and entirely hidden cost. Our fee is R6,500/mo. That is the entire cost.
Founders on your account.
No junior campaign manager learning at your expense. Cobus and Wynand van der Westhuizen are directly involved in your Roodepoort Google Ads account. When CPCs spike or a campaign goes off-target, you hear from us within hours not at the next monthly meeting.

Client results
Real results from real Roodepoort clients
Here’s what Roodepoort businesses say about our Google Ads management work.
“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 serving shoppers across Honeydew and the wider West Rand. That’s the difference between losing money and building a profitable business.”
“Legal Google Ads across the Johannesburg metro 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 our Constantia Kloof practice now generates 38 qualified leads per month at a cost per lead we can actually justify. The negative keyword discipline alone changed everything.”
