Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about digital marketing in Pretoria. No jargon, no runaround.
A digital marketing agency helps businesses grow online through services like SEO, paid advertising, social media, email marketing, SMS campaigns, content strategy, landing pages, conversion tracking, and performance reporting. A good agency like Juicy Designs connects these channels into one cohesive strategy rather than treating them as separate tasks. The goal is always measurable business growth: more leads, more sales, better ROAS.
Digital marketing pricing depends on scope, platforms, creative requirements, ad spend, and reporting needs. At Juicy Designs, monthly packages start from R6,500 for focused single-channel campaign support, with full-funnel performance packages from R22,500/month. One-off campaign setup starts from R4,500 and digital strategy audits from R3,500. Ad spend is always separate from management fees and paid directly to platforms like Google or Meta.
No. Our monthly fee covers strategy, setup, management, optimisation, and reporting. Your advertising budget is paid separately directly to Google, Meta, or programmatic networks. This keeps things transparent: you can see exactly how much goes to media vs. management. We will always recommend a media budget that makes sense for your goals. No silly overspending. No tiny budgets pretending to do big jobs.
Paid media (Google Ads, display, programmatic) can generate traffic and leads within days of launch but optimisation improves results over several weeks as data accumulates. SEO takes longer: meaningful organic traffic growth typically requires 3-6 months of consistent work, with compounding results after 12 months. A full-funnel strategy combining paid (short-term) and SEO (long-term) is the most effective approach for sustainable growth.
Yes. We manage Google Search campaigns (keyword strategy, ad copy, negative keywords, conversion tracking, landing page optimisation, daily monitoring), Google Display (banner ads, remarketing, audience targeting), and Google Shopping. Most clients see ROAS between 3:1 and 5:1 within the first 30 days. We are Google-certified and manage campaigns across industries including automotive, retail, professional services, healthcare, and e-commerce. Google Ads management from R4,500/month. See our Google Search Advertising page for full details.
Yes. Our SEO services include keyword research, technical SEO (site speed, crawlability, Core Web Vitals), on-page optimisation, local SEO (Google Business Profile, citations, map pack rankings), content strategy, schema markup, internal linking, and monthly reporting. We also include AEO, GEO, and AIO optimisation making your brand visible not just in Google Search, but in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and other AI-powered platforms. SEO clients see 30-50% organic traffic growth within 6 months. Packages from R5,000/month. See our SEO page for details.
Three things. First, we connect the full funnel campaigns, landing pages, content, creative, tracking, and follow-up all working together instead of fighting for budget. Second, we are founder-led: you work directly with Cobus and Wynand, not account managers who barely know your business. Third, we understand South Africa local audiences, local consumer behaviour, local budgets, and the specific dynamics of marketing in Pretoria and Johannesburg. No copy-paste Western strategy. Real market knowledge, honest execution, measurable results.
