Fees and terms

Four answers from their pages

What does Google Ads management cost?

Adspective’s paid advertising page lists a starting management fee of R8,500 per month, plus your ad spend, excluding VAT. Checked 16 October 2026.

Is ad spend included in the fee?

No. Adspective says the management fee is separate from the money you put toward the ads, so you stay in control of the budget. They say they will recommend a spend that fits the goals.

Who owns the ad accounts?

You do. On the paid advertising page Adspective says you own the ad accounts and see where every rand goes, in plain-English reports.

Is there a minimum contract for paid advertising?

The paid advertising page does not publish a minimum term. Other monthly work does: SEO packages ask for an initial 3-month commitment, then month-to-month, and AI monthly plans have a 3-month minimum, then month-to-month. The AI audit fee is credited toward the first month.
