YOUR QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions.
What services does The Lead Agency offer?
We work across Google Ads management, SEO, WordPress website design and development, and brand design. The scope can combine these services when they support the same business goal, or focus on the service you need first.
Do you work with businesses in Johannesburg and across South Africa?
Yes. The Lead Agency is based in Sandton, Johannesburg, and works with businesses across South Africa. Share your target locations and customers so the scope reflects the markets you actually serve.
How much does digital marketing cost?
Fees depend on the service, complexity and work required. We clarify the scope before confirming a price. For Google Ads, ask for advertising spend, management fees, setup and any website work to be shown separately.
Can Google Ads and SEO work together?
Yes. Google Ads can help test relevant searches and landing pages, while SEO develops useful content and stronger website foundations. We assess the right balance against your goals and budget; you do not need every service to get started.
How soon can work start, and when will I see results?
The starting date depends on scope, access, content and approvals. We agree a working schedule before delivery begins. Results depend on your market, offer, website and sales follow-up. Early activity should be assessed separately from sustained enquiries and won business.
Do you guarantee rankings, leads or sales?
No. Search platforms, competition and customer decisions are outside any agency’s full control. We agree relevant measures and use the evidence to decide what to improve, rather than promise a fixed ranking or enquiry volume.
How will you measure whether the work is helping?
We consider relevant search visibility, successful enquiries and, where reliable sales records are available, qualified enquiries, consultations, proposals and won business. A telephone or WhatsApp click shows intent to contact; it does not confirm that a conversation took place.
Do I need a completely new website?
Not necessarily. We review your existing website, enquiry paths and integrations before recommending a redesign or a more focused improvement. Valuable existing URLs and useful content should inform the plan.
What happens after I send an enquiry?
We review your business context, discuss the service you need and clarify whether the scope is a good fit before preparing next steps. You can start with your business name or website, goal, target customers and any relevant timing. An enquiry does not commit you to a project.
