    FAQs

    You can find answers to common concerns, questions and objections that you may have about the PSA process, offerings and service plans. If you did not find answers to your questions, you may request a free consultation
    What is Paid Social Advertising?

    Paid social advertising is the process of creating and using sponsored content or advertising to boost your website presence in third party feeds and pages. It generally involves media buying in order to achieve marketing communication, branding goals and leads or sales conversion.

    What social media platforms do you work on?

    We work on all the major social media platforms out there, these includes facebook, linkedin, instagram and twitter. When you engage us, we will perform a research to determine which social media platform is best for your business before proceeding to developing a campaign for you.

    Why does my business need to be on social media?

    The short answer: Because your customers are on social media. Irrespective of what industry your company is in, your prospective customers are using social media everyday. It is vital that you sensitize them about your brand offerings, market your business to them, engage them and keep them connected to your brand so that you’re always their first option when they need a service or product you offer. A strong presence on social media also plays a major role in search engine visibility.

    How much increase in website traffic will I get?

    Our paid social advertising focus on three major marketing objectives such as building awareness for your business, making your audience consider taking an action and immediate conversion actions like product sales. There may be increase in website traffic as your paid ads are optimised for better performance but increasing your ad spend budget will effect a substantial and immediate increase in your website traffic too.

    Will you require me to provide content?

    No, you don’t have to provide us with content. Nonetheless, if you have content, you can send it our way and we will be glad to use it. We normally develop content that’s unique to your brand, industry vertical and audience through the use of stock photography, graphic design and news from relevant sources.

    Do you respond to questions or comments?

    The short answer? Yes. If the questions are not so technical or very specific to your business. But if they are then we will leave them for your in-house team to handle, as you will also be having access to the social media accounts at all times. Giving responses have proven to be helpful in creating a sense of authenticity with your audience and ultimately increases your reach.

    What type of results can I expect?

    The major key performance indicators (KPIs) we keep track of are website traffic and conversions. These two metrics influence sales and your business growth on social media in the long-run. In our monthly reports, you will see these metrics increasing, and we will track what is working so we can improve and do more of it and also what is not working so we can adjust it or stop doing it.

    How many conversions can I expect each month?

    Follower increase and conversions can be contingent on your campaign goals and how optimally refined your campaign is especially on Facebook. We normally track the performance of ad campaigns and use the data to optimise them, resulting in increased conversions. Notwithstanding there are external factors that affect conversions which we cannot control like offer/product price, product quality, website destination, and market you are competing in.

    When will I start seeing results?

    We recommend that our clients engage this PSA service for a minimum of 3 – 6 months in order to see highly remarkable impact on conversions. But generally some impact is noticeable within the first 30 days. If you desire more/immediate conversions in a short while then you can increase your ad spend budget.

    Who will be working on my account?

    Your project will be assigned a dedicated social media manager which may have experience working with other similar businesses in your industry vertical. This person will be working with a team of other experts and report deliverables to a project manager before sending out to you. The social media manager will serve as the main point of contact, interfacing between your team and our team.

    Feedbacks From Our Clients

    We have been chanced to create beautiful experiences for a number of clients who have now turned family. Our utmost desire is to see our client’s business flourish by leveraging on the digital opportunity to increase revenue.

    Frustratingly the Website template we purchased did not work how I wanted. To shorten the launch process we engaged Smartecniqs, who quickly and efficiently developed our business website and worked out the nuances of the template. Now people look at the website and comment on how professional it looks.
