Here’s what Pretoria businesses say about our paid social advertising work.
“Our aesthetics clinic needed to reach high-income women in Menlyn and Lynnwood. Previous Facebook ads produced zero results.

Within six weeks we had a R42 cost per lead and our appointment book was full two weeks out. 3.8x ROAS on a consistent basis. Extraordinary.”

Juicy built LinkedIn and Facebook campaigns that target buyers and investors specifically in Centurion, Lynnwood, and the Waterkloof ridge area. 24 qualified leads per month at R110 CPL leads that actually show up for viewings. We’ve referred three other Pretoria property firms to Juicy since then.”
“Our restaurant needed to reach students and young professionals in Hatfield. TikTok was the obvious channel but we had no idea how to make it work. Juicy built a TikTok campaign with video creative they produced in-house it felt authentic, not like an ad. 4.1x ROAS within 45 days and we went from half-full weeknights to requiring reservations.
