Paid advertising is one part of the work we do as a marketing agency in Surrey, BC. This page explains how our ad channels fit together and how we decide where your budget should go first.

What does an advertising agency do for a Surrey business?

An advertising agency buys and manages paid placements on the platforms where your customers spend time. We choose the channels, build the campaigns, write and design the ads, set up tracking and adjust budgets based on what produces real inquiries.

The biggest decision is whether people are already looking for you. Intent channels like Google Search catch someone typing a need. Discovery channels like Instagram, YouTube and TikTok put your offer in front of people who were not searching yet. Most Surrey businesses need a mix, weighted to how their customers buy.

Who is paid advertising a good fit for?

Paid ads work well when you know what you sell, where you sell it and what a new customer is worth to you. They help most when you need inquiries sooner than organic search can deliver.

  • Realtors and brokers seeking buyer and seller inquiries in specific neighbourhoods
  • Home services and trades taking calls from Google within a set radius
  • Healthcare and dental clinics filling appointment slots
  • Restaurants and retail promoting offers nearby
  • Ecommerce brands selling across Canada
  • Trucking, logistics and construction firms reaching other businesses

Real estate ads in BC must follow BCFSA advertising guidelines, including a clear and prominent brokerage name. On Meta, we also check whether the housing Special Ad Category applies, because it limits the targeting options available.

How our advertising services fit together

We treat your ad channels as one system with shared tracking, not a set of separate accounts. Each channel has a job, and the data from one informs the others.

  1. 1

    Plan the mix

    Our Paid Advertising Strategy work sets goals, budgets and channel priorities before any campaign goes live.

  2. 2

    Capture demand

    Search campaigns and, where your category is eligible, Local Services Ads reach people already looking for the service.

  3. 3

    Build demand

    Social and video campaigns introduce your business to people in your area who match your ideal customer.

  4. 4

    Bring visitors back

    Google Remarketing & Retargeting re-engages people who visited your site or watched your videos but did not contact you.

  5. 5

    Measure across channels

    The Google tag, GA4, the Meta Pixel and Conversions API record calls, forms and purchases so budget follows results.

If you run several platforms at once, our PPC Campaign Management service keeps bidding, testing and reporting consistent across them.

Advertising across Surrey, the Lower Mainland and Canada

Geo-targeting matters in a city made of six distinct communities. A Fleetwood clinic, a Guildford retailer and a South Surrey realtor each need different radiuses, postal codes and ad copy. In Google Ads, we usually set location targeting to people present in your area rather than “presence or interest”, so your budget is not spent on searchers far outside your service zone.

Surrey is also a multilingual market, and Punjabi is widely spoken alongside English. For some clients we run separate ad sets and landing pages in more than one language so the message matches the audience.

Our office is at Hyland Square on 152 Street in Newton, and we meet clients across Langley, Delta, White Rock, Burnaby, Vancouver, Richmond and the rest of the Lower Mainland. Businesses elsewhere in Canada work with us remotely through video calls and shared reporting dashboards.

I wanted to give a big shout-out to Tejas and his team, i have been using them for my advertising needs specially Facebook and Instagram Ads. I have been with them just over a month and i closed a Million dollar deal, thanks to the team. They are very good at placing Ads in front of the people that are actually looking and their system helps to start conversation with them. I would highly recommend checking them out.

Frequently asked questions

How much should I spend on advertising?

The right budget depends on your industry, how competitive your keywords or audiences are, the size of your service area and how many leads you want each month. A plumber targeting one Surrey community needs a different budget than an ecommerce brand selling across Canada. We recommend a starting range after the free analysis, based on your goals.

What is the difference between ad spend and your management fee?

Ad spend is the money the platforms charge for clicks, views or leads, and it is billed directly to your business by Google, Meta, LinkedIn or TikTok. The management fee pays for our planning, setup, creative, optimisation and reporting. Keeping them separate means you can always see what the platforms billed. Ask us for a quote based on your channels.

Who owns the ad accounts?

Your business should own its Google Ads, Meta Business and other advertising accounts. We work inside them with the access you grant, so your campaign history, audiences and conversion data stay with you if you ever change providers. If we create a new account during setup, we create it under your business and make you the owner from day one.

How soon will I see leads from paid ads?

Paid ads can start showing as soon as campaigns are approved, but how quickly they produce steady, qualified leads depends on your budget, competition, offer, landing page and tracking. The first weeks are usually spent learning which keywords, audiences and ads perform. We report what we see and what we are changing.

Do you offer advice only, without managing the ads?

Yes. If your team runs its own campaigns, our Google Ads & PPC Consulting service reviews your campaign structure, keywords, tracking and budgets. You get written recommendations and a walkthrough call, so your team can make the changes itself and come back to us only if it wants help.

Do you work with businesses outside Surrey?

Yes. We work in person with businesses across Surrey and the Lower Mainland, and remotely with clients anywhere in Canada. Remote clients get the same planning, reporting and support through video calls, email, phone and shared dashboards, and their campaigns are targeted to their own city, province or national market.
