Three PPC decisions. One Pretoria team.
Good PPC management comes down to three things: the right platform mix, ruthless targeting, and optimising to the metric that matters. We get all three right for your Pretoria business.
PPC is not just Google. We choose the channel mix, Search, Shopping, Meta, that fits where your Pretoria customers actually are and how they buy. Spending on the wrong platform is the most common PPC waste. Ideal for businesses unsure where to put paid budget.
Explore Platform StrategyEvery wasted click is money gone. We target tightly and add negatives and exclusions to stop spend leaking to the wrong people. Ideal for Pretoria businesses whose current PPC brings clicks but few qualified leads.
Explore TargetingWe manage to cost per lead and return on ad spend, not clicks. Ideal for businesses tired of reports full of impressions and clicks that never explain whether the spend actually made money.
Explore OptimisationWhat PPC management covers for Pretoria clients
PPC management is constant, skilled optimisation across platforms. Here is what a Juicy Designs PPC retainer covers for a Pretoria business.
We decide where your paid budget works hardest, Google Search, Shopping, Meta, or a mix, based on your Pretoria customers and goals. Many businesses default to one platform out of habit; we put budget where the return is, not where it is familiar.
Learn moreWe structure each platform’s account around your highest-value actions, with clean campaign and ad-group organisation. A well-structured PPC account is controllable and improvable; a messy one quietly wastes a Pretoria business’s budget every day.
Learn moreWe set up accurate conversion tracking across platforms so we optimise to leads and sales, not clicks. Without it, PPC management is guesswork. With it, we see the true cost per lead per channel for your Pretoria business and shift budget to what performs.
Learn moreWe write and test ad creative, copy, and where relevant visuals, to lift click-through and conversion. Continuous testing is core to PPC: the winning ad today is not the winning ad next quarter, so we keep testing for your Pretoria campaigns.
Learn moreWe manage bids and budgets to your target cost per acquisition, shifting spend toward the campaigns, audiences and times that convert. The skill of PPC is allocating a fixed budget for maximum return, which is what we do daily for Pretoria accounts.
Learn moreMonthly reporting on cost per lead, return on ad spend and spend by platform, in plain language. You see exactly what each channel returns and what we changed. Full visibility, with ad spend always billed by the platform, never marked up by us.

What makes us different
Platform-agnostic, ruthless on waste, and optimised to cost per lead with a 4.8x average return. Managing South African PPC since 2015.
Some agencies only really know Google, so everything becomes a Google problem. We choose the platform mix, Google, Meta, Shopping, based on where your Pretoria customers actually are and convert. That platform-agnostic view is what stops budget pouring into a channel out of habit rather than results.
Platform-agnosticIn PPC, every irrelevant click is money gone. We are ruthless with negatives, exclusions and tight targeting, and we optimise to cost per lead, not vanity clicks. Our paid clients average a verified 4.8x return on ad spend. For a Pretoria business, cutting waste is often the fastest way to lift PPC performance.
4.8x ROASAd spend is paid directly to the platform and never marked up; our fee is separate and clear. You deal directly with the founders, month to month after onboarding. We keep Pretoria clients through profitable results and full visibility, not through contracts or hidden margins.
No lock-inFrequently asked questions
Straight answers about ppc management in Pretoria. No jargon, no runaround.
PPC (pay-per-click) management is the running and optimisation of paid advertising where you pay per click, across platforms like Google and Meta. It covers strategy and platform choice, account structure, targeting, ad creative, bidding, conversion tracking and reporting. The aim is to get each click moving toward a lead or sale at a controlled cost. Juicy Designs manages PPC across channels for Pretoria businesses to a target cost per lead, optimising continuously rather than setting and forgetting.
It depends on where your customers are and how they buy. High-intent service searches favour Google Search; products favour Google Shopping; awareness, retargeting and visual products often favour Meta (Facebook and Instagram); B2B may favour LinkedIn. Many Pretoria businesses default to one platform out of habit. We assess your customers and goals and recommend the mix that returns most, then manage budget across them rather than locking you into one channel.
Juicy Designs PPC management starts from R6,000 per month, separate from your ad spend, which is paid directly to the platforms and never marked up by us. The right ad budget depends on your market and goals; most Pretoria businesses run R5,000 to R15,000 per month across platforms. Our fee covers the strategy, build, optimisation and reporting. A sensible rule is that monthly spend should roughly equal the value of one to three new customers.
PPC buys clicks instantly through paid ads, for as long as you fund it; SEO earns organic visibility over time that persists after the work. PPC is faster and fully controllable but stops when budget stops; SEO is slower but compounds. Most Pretoria businesses use both, PPC for immediate, scalable leads, SEO to lower blended cost per lead long term. Juicy Designs runs both in-house, so the paid and organic strategies coordinate rather than compete.
By cost per lead and return on ad spend, not clicks or impressions. We set up conversion tracking across every platform so we can see the true cost of acquiring a customer per channel, then optimise budget toward what performs. Across our paid clients we average a verified 4.8x return on ad spend. For a Pretoria business, the only PPC metrics that matter are the ones tied to actual leads, sales and profit, so those are what we report.
Yes, and we often do. We start with an audit of the existing account to find where budget is leaking, broad keywords, missing negatives, poor structure, tracking that measures the wrong thing. Frequently a Pretoria account can be made profitable simply by cutting waste and fixing tracking before any new spend. We will tell you honestly what is salvageable and what is better rebuilt, then manage it transparently from there.
Client results
Here's what Pretoria businesses say about our ppc management work.
Same budget, double the qualified leads
"Our PPC was all on Google and most of the budget went to clicks that never converted. Juicy added Meta retargeting, cut the wasted Google spend with proper negatives, and optimised to cost per lead. Same budget, roughly double the qualified leads for our Pretoria business. They were not precious about which platform."
Finally a report that says whether it made money
"Every previous PPC report was clicks and impressions and I never knew if it actually paid off. Juicy set up proper tracking and now I see cost per lead and return by channel. Turns out one platform was carrying everything and the other was waste. They moved the budget accordingly."
Rescued an account that was losing money
"Our account had lost money for months and we were ready to quit PPC entirely. Juicy audited it, found the structure and tracking were broken, and fixed it before spending another rand on new campaigns. It turned profitable. Honest, transparent, and the spend goes straight to the platform with no markup."
