Pay per click and Facebook ads (PPC)

  1. Any pay per click accounts (such as Google Adwords) and campaigns set up by the Company on behalf of the Customer, will remain the property of the Company and cannot be copied or in any way reused by the Customer. The Customer will not have access to the advertising account under any circumstances and may upon request be sent a performance report on a monthly basis.

  2. The Company will either provide an advertising service of lead capture, whereby the aim will be to collect contact details (e.g. name, phone, email address) of people within the target audience of a campaign; or provide services to generate clicks on an advert, where the person clicking will be directed to the Customer website.

  3. The Customer must at all times have credit on their account for advertising spend and pay one month in advance. If the advertising budget runs out, the campaigns will be stopped until the Customer adds more credit on account. Stopping a campaign can be extremely harmful and the Company will accept no responsibility in such cases.

  4. The Customer is responsible for paying all associated costs in relation to the ad spend on any campaigns. This includes post termination should a bill be generated after the campaigns will stop. This is due to the fact ads may be displayed which have not been clicked on for several days after the campaign has been paused or terminated by the Company. The Company may authorise a charge to the Customer or invoice including anytime within 12 months after termination of this agreement.

  5. If the Company agrees, in cooperation with the Company, the Customer may add a debit/credit card onto the advertising account and will be billed automatically by the advertising platform. The amounts and times the billing occurs will vary, and could be several times per day, week or month depending on the campaign spend. As per clause 2 above, any failed payment will immediately stop the campaign and could severely harm the campaign performance once it restarts and could lead to the ad account being permanently suspended from the platform which is outside of the Company’s control.

  6. The Customer can provide a campaign brief and must provide admin level access to any social media page or advertising account the Company reasonably requires access to prior to the campaign starting. The Customer must provide the Company with any relevant information including: previous customer data (to assist in audience optimisation), images, video, copy or other information which the Company may require in order to set up the campaign. Any delays in providing access or information will not delay the effective start date for the campaign and no extension will be applied to it.

  7. If the Customer does not have any suitable images or video to use, the Company may provide images at an additional cost for the Customer to choose from. 

  8. The Company will require tracking code to be installed onto the Customer’s website in order to track user behaviour, campaign performance and to retarget ads. 

  9. The Company will set up a campaign as close as possible to the brief provided by the Customer. Once the brief has been submitted and any work started by the Company to set up the campaign, the Customer may not alter any of the campaign information.

  10. The Company may set up retargeting adverts to run alongside other adverts to re-engage previous website visitors, previous customers and/or people who have engaged with any adverts. 

  11. The Company may alter the brief or targeting parameters as it is impossible to provide an exhaustive list of parameters and some targeting may lead to too small or too large an audience for the budget provided.

  12. It may be necessary for the Company to test audiences, copy, images and video in order to discover the best performing ad. The Company may change any part of an advert without prior notice to the Customer. This may also include using higher daily spending budgets at times.

  13. The Company cannot be held responsible for low engagement of adverts or any leads which do not convert into paying Customers and in no way provides any guarantees as to the amount of new business the Customer will receive.

  14. Once a campaign has started, the Customer cannot request it be paused. In the event the campaign is paused due to a lack of budget, the Customer must immediately top up their credit on account or the campaign will remain paused.

  15. For a lead capture campaign, the Company will email and optionally at additional cost send leads via SMS to the Customer. The Customer is responsible for ensuring they respond to the leads and the Company cannot make any guarantees about the quality of the leads or if they will convert into a paying customer. The Company can only provide the leads and the Customer is responsible for any further engagement and sales processes. 

  16. For a campaign designed to create more website traffic, there will be no lead capture element. The Customer must ensure the website is optimised correctly and the Customer is responsible for the landing page and user experience on the website. The Company may create retargeting ads which can vary depending on the type of website the Customer has.

  17. For all campaigns, the advertising platforms operate an extended audience network of websites. Ads will show on these networks and generally the Company is severely limited in the ability to control what websites the adverts will display on. The Customer cannot request ads not to show on individual websites and it may not be possible to restrict it from specific types of websites. The Company cannot be held responsible for any reputational or other damage caused by an advert displaying on any website which goes against the Customer’s own beliefs.

  18. The Company must ensure compliance with the guidelines and rules of the various advertising platforms used by consulting the guidelines of the individual platforms prior to engaging the Company. As such it may not be possible to advertise the exact copy, images, video, products, services or even general message the Customer wishes and the Company cannot be held responsible for this. The Company does not have an exhaustive list and its the Customer’s responsibility to ensure their message, products & services are accepted on the chosen advertising platform.
