Are you ready to see total transparency with your pay per click ads? Ready to see how data can improve your ROI?

We offer transparency in our Pay Per Click advertisement programs.

The money you spend on the ad itself will be billed from the company you are directly advertising on. This is our way to keep this process transparent and see how our recommendations help your company in the long run.

Also, we do not charge by the “ad spent percentage”, which we think incentivizes ad manager laziness when it comes to managing PPC ads. With this management set-up, it’s in the manager’s best interest to have you spend even more money, so they can get paid more. We take a different approach and have a set free for managing and continue to improve the ads to give you a better ROI (Return On Investment) and CPA (Cost Per Acquisition).
