Paid media & Lead Generation

For The Ignite package, we require a minimum ad spend of $1,000 per month, paid directly to the advertising platform (Meta or Google).
This minimum budget allows campaigns to gather sufficient data, optimize effectively, and generate measurable results. Lower budgets often limit reach and performance, making it difficult to scale strategically.
Your ad spend is separate from Ember Marketing’s management fee and will be discussed during your discovery call to ensure it aligns with your business goals.

No. While we implement strategy-backed campaigns and ongoing optimization, results cannot be guaranteed due to external market and audience factors. We focus on intentional execution, performance tracking, and data-driven improvements.

This fee helps cover work completed, reserved time, and project allocation.
