Roger and Steve are excellent extentions of our team. We have worked with them for about a year to scale our business at a profitable level, and have accomplished that time and time again. Unlike many partners, they are always proactive to meet our needs and address any concerns. I highly recommend the Digital Position team!

We live and breathe Search Marketing every single day and are on top of every trend. Google Ads & Microsoft Ads can be managed in-house and can be successful, but are you truly maximizing what you could be doing? We see that significant dollars are being left on the table in the vast majority of accounts we take over. We operate as an extension of your marketing team; you get access to multiple 10+ year veterans for less than the cost of one in-house employee with half the experience.
We manage Google Ads & Microsoft Ads top to bottom. When we first take over your account, we completely rebuild it to our best practices so it can function alongside some of our proprietary scripts & reporting tools. Once the new account is launched (typically 2-3 week turnaround), we begin daily/weekly/monthly optimizations. We're in constant contact as we work with your team to move your business forward and scale the account(s).
Our baseline is 12% ad spend with a $1,000 minimum, whichever is greater. With clients who have monthly budgets of $100k+, the percentage of ad spend decreases as you hit new "tiers" of spend. In summary, we grow when you grow!
Every client starts with a month to month agreement with a 30-day opt out. We don't want you to stay with us because you're contractually obligated to, we want you to stay with us because you want to! The average PPC client remains with Digital Position for 3.5 years (yup), so we're not worried about locking our clients into a long-term deal. In other words, we retain our clients with top-notch service and growth, not lengthy contracts.
We didn't like any of the "stock" reporting solutions out there, so we built our own! We use a proprietary software called DataPulse, built from the ground up by our team. You will be able to log into it to see your metrics in real-time. We then typically send a monthly PPC report with an analysis of the metrics, summary of projects completed the previous month, and the projects for the upcoming month. Then we hop on a monthly call to go through it and prioritize. Custom reporting options and a more frequent cadence of calls is absolutely an option.
Yes, we're not hiding behind a keyboard; we want you to get to know us personally. For clients near Charlotte, we can visit more regularly to ensure your goals are being met. We have an office in Charlotte, NC so we're close by! For those not in CT or NC, we will fly out to meet you in-person but the visits may occur less often.
