What we do

What’s included

Every project is scoped to what you need. These are the pieces we deliver most often.

Campaign strategy

Which platforms, which offers, which audiences and what a lead or sale can cost for the math to work.

Ad creative

Vertical video, statics and variations cut from your content days. See short-form video.

Meta ads

Facebook and Instagram campaigns, including Advantage+ style automated placements and audience testing.

TikTok ads

Creative made for the platform rather than recycled, with spark-style ads from posts that already earned attention.

Tracking setup

Pixel and conversions API, events for calls, forms and bookings, so reporting reflects real business results.

Reporting

A monthly report with spend, results and cost per result, plus what we are changing next month.

RAW Digital Group runs Meta and TikTok ads for Detroit businesses from its studio at 2200 Hunt St. It builds ads from content its own crew shoots, targets the neighborhoods you serve and reports cost per lead, booking or sale. Ad spend is paid directly to the platforms.

Updated

Creative is the lever now

Meta and TikTok have automated most of the targeting decisions that agencies used to charge for. What still moves numbers is the creative: the hook in the first second, the offer, the proof, the caption. That is the part most agencies outsource and we do in-house.

Every ad we run starts from content our crew shot for you, and usually from a format we have already tested on our own channels, where we publish to more than 245,000 people. Instead of guessing which angle works, we start from what the market already responded to.

What we actually do each month

  • Build three to five creative variations per offer and retire the ones that fade.
  • Watch cost per result, not impressions, and move budget toward what converts.
  • Keep tracking honest with the pixel and conversions API, so the report matches your bookings.
  • Refresh creative before fatigue sets in, which is where most local campaigns quietly stall.

Straight reporting

You get one page a month: what we spent, what it produced, what it cost per result and what changes next. If a campaign is not working, we say so and tell you whether the problem is the offer, the creative or the landing page. Our social media pricing guide explains how management fees and ad spend usually break down in this market.

Ads work better with everything else

Paid social is strongest when the organic account, the content and the offer all point the same way. Many clients pair ads with social media management or an influencer campaign at launch. Tell us what you are promoting.

Process

How a project runs

No surprises. You know who is on your project, what it costs and when you get files.

Audit and plan

We review past campaigns, your offer and your numbers, then set a budget and a target cost per result.

Build

Tracking, audiences and the first round of creative, usually three to five variations per offer.

Test

Two weeks of learning: hooks, formats and audiences, with the losers cut quickly.

Scale and report

Spend moves to what works. You get a monthly report and a call, and creative is refreshed before it fatigues.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

How much should we spend on Facebook and Instagram ads?
Most Detroit businesses start between $1,000 and $3,000 a month in ad spend, plus management. The right number depends on what a customer is worth to you and how fast you want results. We set a target cost per lead or sale before spending anything.
Is ad spend included in your fee?
No. Our management fee is separate, and ad spend is billed by Meta or TikTok directly to your account, so you always see exactly where the money goes.
Do we need new creative for ads?
Usually yes. The creative is the biggest lever in paid social now that the platforms automate much of the targeting. We build ad versions from your content days, or add a monthly content day to the plan.
Who owns the ad account and pixel?
You do. We work inside your Meta Business portfolio as a partner. If we ever part ways, you keep the account, the pixel, the audiences and the history.
How soon do ads work?
Expect two weeks of testing before the picture is clear, and about 30 to 60 days to find a stable cost per result. Offers with urgency, like an opening or a limited promotion, move faster.
