Are you keen to promote your business online? Do you want to achieve the best possible results and attract new potential customers? Online advertising will help you achieve your marketing goals and give your brand more publicity. You are certainly wondering how to set a budget for your advertising campaign, which seems like a daunting task. Let us help you clear up any doubts! 
Cost of an advertising campaign - how to determine it?
Google Ads is one of the most recognisable and effective advertising systems, thanks to which entrepreneurs all over the world are able to grow their business rapidly. Now, reaching new audiences from all over the country is not a problem at all and, most importantly, we do not have to allocate a huge amount of funds for this kind of campaign. Even smaller and medium-sized companies can afford to advertise with Google Ads. Its most important advantages are:
- instant results;
- reaching the selected target group;
- simple, clear rules;
- increasing brand awareness;
- the opportunity to test different strategies, which will maximise the return on advertising;
- tracking performance against competitors;
- extremely precise campaign management.
What is the price of an internet advertising campaign? Unfortunately, it is impossible to give a short and definite answer, as the cost of advertising depends on many different factors. If you want to set a budget for Google Ads, you should first determine the amount you can spend on this type of marketing in the first few weeks of the campaign. To do this, you will need to analyse what your competitors are doing, check the cost per click for the keywords you have set, and prepare the right strategy. Start with a sum that you are comfortable spending on advertising each month - so that it is not an excessive burden on your business.
Online advertising campaign and company strategy
If you want to advertise with Google Ads, it is worth remembering to set the most important objectives. If you are just starting out in the market, promotion is an absolute necessity. Thanks to a Google Ads campaign, we will easily gain our first potential customers and obtain information on selected keywords, which we will later use to position the website. When your online shop or other business has already made a name for itself, advertising on Google Ads will serve to increase the number of visitors and to support other marketing activities.
The cost of an advertising campaign - monitor the results in real time
Once we have set specific marketing objectives and determined the budget, we want the prepared advertising to be effective. Then we will have the feeling that the money invested was not in vain. A huge mistake that inexperienced entrepreneurs make is to configure the campaign and the amount of funds at one time. In Google Ads, we can continuously monitor the results of our promotional activities, which allows us to modify the initial settings. To be successful, it is therefore necessary to try new strategies and make changes. Sometimes choosing different keywords will make the results much more satisfying. It is also worth betting on longer phrases consisting of several words - they are less obvious, so their cost will be much lower. To find the right keywords, you can use the Google Keyword Planner tool.
Cost of a social media advertising campaign
Of course, Google Ads is a very effective advertising system, but not the only one. It may be that advertising on Facebook or on Instagram is more suitable for your business. Promotional activities are also good to combine with each other. Running several campaigns using different tools will certainly achieve much better results. Therefore, if you are running your brand's fanpage, take care to create sponsored posts - these will be displayed to recipients on the board when they browse. Facebook advertising campaigns are effective, as you can tailor them very precisely to your target group. Nowadays, practically everyone is using this form of advertising - both owners of recognisable brands and micro entrepreneurs. The rate for advertising starts at just a few zlotys. However, we must remember that the price of a Facebook campaign is influenced by many factors, such as:
- size of target group,
- the place where the advertisement is displayed,
- the quality of the advertising material prepared,
- the purpose of the promotion and the method of optimisation,
- seasonality.
An ad that fully meets its purpose should be prepared in accordance with the guidelines provided by Facebook - you should familiarise yourself with these before creating a campaign. This is because its cost can be affected by:
- amount of text on graphic,
- the format of the ad (choose from: graphics, carousels, videos, collections, product ads and more),
- dimensions of the prepared image;
- message message.
