FAQs for Paid Social Media Marketing Services

There are two main types of social media activity: organic and paid. Organic social media is when posts are published to a social media platform with no paid spend behind them. This method is normally used to keep up with consistent posting to loyal followers, although as noted above, the impact of organic is falling each year. 

Here at WebBox we focus on paid activity. This is where social is supported by a paid strategy to get adverts in front of a target audience to support business goals. Our offering includes supporting clients with their social media strategies, using data driven insights to create paid campaigns that will boost their brands through a range of social channels.

Generally speaking, social media platforms charge less per-click or per-engagement than search engines such as Google and Bing. Of course, this depends on a range of factors including the competitiveness of the sector; however, when comparing organic posts and paid ads, platforms will promote paid content — after all, that’s what you’re paying for. 

This approach also allows you to enhance your targeting down to a granular level. You will also benefit from being able to see additional insights, and be able to apply these findings to your wider marketing strategy.

Yes, we provide reports that are based on your KPIs. Generally we share reports with our clients weekly, bi-weekly or monthly, depending on what the campaign needs. As part of this, your dedicated paid ads specialist will be on hand to answer any of your queries or questions about the report, and discuss the results in more detail.

The fee is split into two parts. Part of it is paid directly to the platform — whether that’s Facebook, Instagram, TikTok etc. The second goes to WebBox as your paid social marketing agency, to manage your ads — this will be made clear in your proposal.

The click costs and media spend are paid directly to the platform by the client — this means that you have full control and transparency over your budget and ad spend.

In short, all of the ones you’d expect: Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok — you name it, we’ve worked on it, and we’re always keeping an eye on the latest social trends so that we can inform our clients on what to look out for next. 

Our specialists can support you with paid ads on any of these channels. Which channel you use is dependent on a number of factors, such as whether your business is B2B or B2C, the age of your audience, location, objectives, sector etc. We will be able to help guide you on the best platform to place paid ads on.

We also run programmatic campaigns across a wide range of third party websites to further support paid ads campaigns that are looking to scale up.

Paid ads are used to promote a product or service to a targeted audience as part of a social media strategy. These ads are a cost-effective approach to raise brand awareness, and can be undertaken through displaying creative advertisements or sponsored marketing messages. 

There are a number of reasons that a business may invest in paid ads: to promote a specific event or offer, for lead generation, to reach new customers — the list goes on. No matter what your reason, one of our specialists will be able to give you all the information you need.

We are pleased to work across all sectors and industries to support businesses with paid social campaigns. Whether you’re looking to increase lead generation or brand awareness, to point new customers to your eCommerce store or latest webinar, we’ve done it! Have something a little different? Get in touch with us — we love a challenge.

Paid social media advertising means that you can hyper-target who view your ads by location, gender, interests or hobbies — gaining you potential customers. You can also see where you’re spending your money, and what ads work for your business. Organic content has its place, but it is much more likely to be seen by existing customers and followers, rather than by anyone new.

A paid social ads specialist, also known as a social media marketing consultant, works with clients to determine how paid social marketing can benefit the business and meet the paid social media strategy. They will manage the day-to-day campaigns, including creating campaigns, targeting your audience, optimisation, monitoring results, and reporting to you in a way that helps you understand your ROI.
