Guides on social & ads

About social & ads guides

These guides help you decide where social media and paid advertising fit in your marketing. They compare organic social media management with Google and Meta ads, explain what each is good at, and show how to judge both by the enquiries and sales they bring rather than likes and impressions.

They are written for owners who approve the budget and want to understand what they are paying for, without the jargon.

If you are weighing up social media management against paid ads, start with our comparison guide. For help running either, see our social media marketing and Google and Meta ads services.
