The Ads Partner Retainer:
Facebook and Instagram Ads Audit
Full-Service Meta Ads Management for Scalable, Predictable Growth
$2,500-$3,500/month | 3-Month Minimum Commitment (kicks off with The Health Check audit)
You're Ready to Scale. You Need a Meta Ads Partner, Not a Vendor.
Your business is established. You have an offer that converts. You know Facebook and Instagram ads can drive real revenue - but managing them yourself is costing you time, money, or both.
You've tried the DIY approach and hit a ceiling.
Maybe you've worked with freelancers who ghosted or underdelivered.
Maybe you've hired agencies that treated you like account #247.
You need someone who cares about your results as much as you do. Someone who actively optimizes your campaigns daily, communicates clearly, and acts as a true extension of your marketing team.
The Ads Partner Retainer gives you exactly that: a dedicated Meta ads expert managing your Facebook and Instagram advertising with the same level of strategic rigor used by Fortune 500 brands - adapted for your business, your budget, and your goals.
How to Get Started: The Ads Audit Comes First
All new retainer clients begin with The Ads Health Check ($497).
Why? Because jumping straight into ongoing management without understanding your current state is like building on a shaky foundation. The audit ensures:
✓ Your campaigns are set up correctly from day one
✓ We identify quick wins that can improve performance immediately
✓ You get a clear roadmap for profitable scaling
✓ We're aligned on strategy before committing to ongoing partnership
The best part? Your $497 audit fee is fully credited toward your first month of management if you move forward with the retainer.
Translation: The audit is free if you become a retainer client. You're just paying for it upfront to ensure we're the right fit and your account is ready to scale.

Frequently Asked Questions About Ads Partner Retainer
Why do I need to start with an audit?
The audit ensures we're building on a solid foundation. It identifies what's already working (so we don't break it), what needs fixing (so we don't waste your budget), and creates a clear roadmap for profitable scaling. It also helps both of us determine if we're a good fit before committing to ongoing partnership.
How long does the audit take?
You'll receive your complete video walkthrough and action plan within 10 business days of granting account access.
What if the audit shows I'm not ready for management yet?
Perfect - that's exactly why we do it first. I'll tell you honestly what you need to fix before investing in management. Maybe it's your offer, your landing page, or your tracking setup. You'll walk away with a clear action plan, and we can reconnect when you're ready.
Is the audit fee really credited to Month 1?
Yes! If you move forward with The Ads Partner Retainer after your audit, the full $497 is credited toward your first month's management fee.
Why a 3-month minimum commitment?
Quality Facebook ads optimization takes time. Month 1 is implementing audit findings and optimization. Month 2 is testing and refinement. Month 3 is where we really start seeing scalable performance. Anything shorter doesn't give us enough data to drive meaningful results.
What happens after 3 months?
Most clients continue month-to-month. You can cancel anytime after the initial 3-month commitment with 30 days notice.
Can you manage ads on other platforms (Google, TikTok, LinkedIn)?
Our packages focus on Meta (Facebook & Instagram). To add on TikTok and LinkedIn, we can discuss a custom package. For Google Ads, I can recommend trusted partners.
How involved do I need to be?
Minimal. We'll have a 30-45 minute monthly strategy call, and you'll receive weekly email updates. If you prefer, our monthly report can be delivered by video and you can send questions back to us. Beyond that, we handle everything. You can be as hands-on or hands-off as you prefer.
What if results aren't meeting expectations?
Paid advertising requires testing and iteration. We'll always be transparent about performance and communicate proactively if we need to adjust strategy. That said, results depend on many factors including your offer, pricing, market, and landing page - not just ad execution.
What's the minimum ad spend you recommend?
Ideally $3K-$5K/month minimum. Below that, Meta doesn't have enough budget to properly optimize, and the management fee becomes disproportionate to your total investment. If you're spending less, consider starting with The Quick Win Sprint to test viability first.
Do you offer payment plans?
Monthly retainer fees are due at the beginning of each month. No payment plans currently available.
