Questions
Asked before every campaign.
What kinds of businesses do you work with?
Service businesses where a single customer has meaningful value: general contractors, home services, automotive, health and aesthetics, fitness, real estate, and professional services. If acquiring a new customer is worth real money to you, there is probably a campaign worth building.
Do you run Meta ads, Google ads, or both?
Both. Meta (Facebook and Instagram feed, Reels, Stories, retargeting, and lead campaigns) and Google (search, high-intent, call, branded, and local campaigns). The channel mix follows where your customers actually are — not a house preference.
What does the first-month offer include?
For qualifying new clients, David & Dayton waives its management fee during the first month while the client funds the advertising budget. The month includes strategy, campaign setup, creative, funnel, tracking, optimization, and reporting. The offer is subject to availability, scope, eligibility, and a written agreement.
Is advertising spend separate from your fees?
Yes. Advertising budget is paid to the ad platforms (Meta, Google) and is always separate from management fees, as are any third-party costs.
Are results guaranteed?
No. The results shown on this site are real historical outcomes for specific campaigns, clients, and reporting periods — and past performance does not guarantee future performance. What we commit to is a system: testing, honest reporting, and scaling only what the data supports.
What do you need from us to begin?
A discovery conversation covering your business, offer, margins, average customer value, capacity, market, and current marketing. From there we determine platform, offer, audience, creative direction, funnel, and qualification before anything launches.
How do you measure campaign performance?
Beyond platform metrics, we track the path that matters commercially: leads, qualified leads, appointments, and — where the client shares it — what actually closed. Clients see the same reporting we see.
Do you create the ads themselves?
Yes. Static ads, video editing, concepts, hooks, copywriting, offers, and variations — built from client footage, existing assets, photography, licensed media, and design, then tested rather than guessed at.
Do you also build the funnel and follow-up?
Yes. Landing pages, instant forms, qualification, booking pages, quote pages, and thank-you pages — plus the lead systems behind them: CRM, SMS and email follow-up, lead routing, notifications, appointment reminders, reporting, and attribution.
How does the strategy call work?
Before the call we review your website, offer, current advertising, competitors, and conversion path. On the call we talk through what a campaign appropriate for your business would look like. No obligation follows from the conversation.
