Frequently Asked Questions
Whether you’re curious about specific strategies, pricing, or just want to know more about what we do, browse through these common queries to get the insights you need.
What is digital marketing?
Why is digital marketing important for my business?
How much does digital marketing cost?
What is a digital marketing agency and how do I know if I need one?
A digital marketing agency is a team of experts who help businesses create, execute, and manage online marketing strategies to grow their presence, drive more traffic, and increase conversions (for example phone calls, form submissions etc). This often involves multiple services, including social media marketing, search engine optimisation (SEO), paid advertising (PPC), content marketing, email marketing, and more.
You might need a digital marketing agency if:
You lack the time or expertise to effectively market your business online.
You’re not seeing results from your current marketing efforts and need fresh, expert-driven strategies.
Your competition is dominating online, and you’re struggling to keep up.
Your business goals include increasing brand awareness, generating more leads, improving conversions, or scaling faster.
You want to focus on other parts of your business and leave the marketing to professionals who specialise in data-driven strategies.
A digital marketing agency like Quirk Digital can help fill the gaps, whether you’re new to online marketing or simply looking to improve your current results. We provide the expertise, tools, and strategies needed to create targeted campaigns, optimise your online presence, and ultimately grow your business.
Can you guarantee results?
No reputable digital marketing agency can guarantee specific results because digital marketing involves many variables that are outside of anyone’s control, such as market trends, competitor actions, and changes in platform algorithms. However, what we can guarantee is a structured, data-driven approach that continually optimises your campaigns to improve performance over time.
Instead of offering guarantees, we focus on:
Setting realistic expectations based on your goals and budget.
Ongoing optimisation of campaigns based on data and performance analysis.
Transparent reporting, so you know exactly how your marketing dollars are being spent and what impact they’re having.
Collaborating with you to adjust strategies when necessary to ensure we’re always aligned with your business objectives.
Any agency offering guarantees is likely over-promising, as no one can fully control how the market or audience will behave. What we can do is apply proven methods, optimise based on performance, and ensure that we are giving you the best possible chance of success.

Why do I need to spend money on ads when I can post organically?
What sets us apart from other digital marketing agencies is our personalised, results-oriented approach. Here’s what makes us different:
Proven track record: We have a history of success across various industries, so you can be confident we know what works for businesses like yours.
Organic social media and content marketing are great for building a long-term brand presence, but the truth is they take time, and the reach of organic posts has been significantly reduced on most platforms. Algorithms prioritise paid content, meaning that without advertising, your posts may only reach a small fraction of your audience.
Paid advertising allows you to:
Target specific audiences: With paid ads, you can reach the exact audience you want based on demographics, interests, and behavior. This level of targeting is much harder to achieve organically.
Scale quickly: Paid ads provide a fast way to drive traffic, leads, or sales, allowing you to scale your business more quickly than relying on organic reach alone.
Control your message: With ads, you can control exactly what you want your audience to see and ensure it aligns with your business goals, whether it’s promoting a new product, an event, or a limited-time offer.
Track results: Unlike organic posts, paid advertising provides in-depth data on performance, allowing you to see what’s working and optimise accordingly.
While organic posting is valuable for maintaining a brand presence, paid ads are crucial to reaching new customers and driving measurable results in today’s competitive digital landscape.
Transparency and communication: We maintain open communication with our clients and provide regular, detailed reports, so you’re always informed of what’s happening with your campaigns.
Data-driven decisions: We rely on data to guide our decisions. By constantly analysing performance, we can refine and optimise your campaigns to achieve the best possible results.
Focus on long-term growth: We don’t just focus on quick wins. Our goal is to build a sustainable digital marketing strategy that supports your business’s growth over time, ensuring you see returns not just now, but well into the future.
Support and education: We see ourselves as an extension of your team, and we’re here to guide you, explain what we’re doing, and help you understand how the strategies we implement benefit your business.

How long will it take to see results from my digital marketing efforts?
The timeline for seeing results depends on several factors, including the type of marketing strategy, the competitiveness of your industry, and your specific goals.
Paid ads (Google, Facebook, etc.) can often generate initial results within days or weeks, depending on your budget and targeting. However, true optimisation and the best return on investment (ROI) usually take a couple of months.
SEO is a longer-term strategy and can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months before you see significant improvements in organic rankings and traffic.
Content marketing and organic social media strategies also take time to build traction, typically showing results after a few months of consistent effort.
The key to successful digital marketing is patience and continuous optimisation. It’s important to track progress and make data-driven decisions to ensure your strategies improve over time.
How do I know if digital marketing is right for my business?
Digital marketing is right for most businesses, but the specific tactics and strategies you should use depend on your industry, target audience, and goals. Here are a few signs that digital marketing can benefit your business:
Your customers are online: If your target audience uses search engines, social media, or emails, digital marketing is essential for reaching them.
You need more brand visibility: Digital marketing helps you reach a broader audience, increasing your brand’s visibility and awareness.
You want measurable results: Unlike traditional advertising, digital marketing allows you to track performance and measure the ROI of your efforts in real-time.
Your competition is online: If your competitors are already leveraging digital marketing, it’s important to stay competitive by reaching customers where they are.
If you’re still unsure, we offer consultations to assess your business and help determine if digital marketing is the right fit for your needs and objectives.
Should I run paid ads if I don't know if it will be profitable?
It’s natural to be cautious about investing in paid ads if you’re unsure of their profitability. However, with the right approach, paid ads can be one of the most effective ways to drive new business. Here’s how to approach it:
Start small and test: You can begin with a small budget to test different audiences, creatives, and strategies. This way, you can evaluate performance and adjust before scaling up.
Track and measure: Paid ads give you detailed analytics. You’ll be able to see metrics like cost per click, conversion rate, and ROI, which will help you determine profitability.
Optimise: Digital ads are highly flexible. If a particular ad isn’t performing, you can tweak the messaging, audience, or visuals to improve results.
Paid advertising should be approached with a mindset of testing and learning. When done properly, even a modest budget can lead to profitable results.
I'm running my own ads and not getting results. What do I do?
If you’re running your own ads and not seeing the results you expected, it could be due to several factors. Here’s what you should do:
Analyse your data: Check the performance metrics for your campaigns. Are you getting clicks but no conversions? Is your cost per click too high? This data will provide clues as to where the problem lies.
Reevaluate your targeting: Make sure you’re reaching the right audience. Poor targeting can result in wasted ad spend and low conversions.
Assess your ad creative: Your visuals and messaging play a huge role in ad performance. Make sure your ad copy is compelling, clear, and aligned with your audience’s needs.
Check your landing page: If people are clicking your ads but not converting, there may be an issue with the landing page. Ensure that the page is optimised for conversions, loads quickly, and has a clear call-to-action.
Optimise continuously: Digital ads are dynamic, so it’s essential to monitor performance regularly and make adjustments to improve results.
If you’re still struggling, it may be worth consulting with an expert or agency to troubleshoot the issues and help optimse your campaigns for better performance.
