What We Do

What Is Meta Ads Management and Why Does Your DTC Brand Need It?

Quick Summary

Meta ads management involves end-to-end campaign strategy, creative development, audience targeting, and daily optimisation on Facebook and Instagram. For DTC brands, this is the primary channel to acquire customers profitably. Without proper management, most brands waste 40–60% of their ad budget.

Meta advertising has become the backbone of successful DTC growth. The difference between a brand growing 20% year-on-year and one growing 3× in 90 days usually comes down to one thing: expert Meta ads management.

Most DTC founders try to manage Meta ads themselves or hire freelancers without proven systems. The result is creative fatigue, rising CPA, and stagnant ROAS. After 6–12 months of underperformance, they realise the true cost wasn’t just wasted budget — it was lost growth.

When you partner with SOMS Media, you get a team that has scaled dozens of DTC brands using proven frameworks. We don’t just run your ads — we engineer campaigns that compound. Every creative test builds on learnings. Every audience refinement gets you closer to your ideal customer.

The result: Most clients achieve 4–5× ROAS within 90 days. We manage over £50,000 monthly in ad spend, all generating profitable returns. We work exclusively with DTC brands spending a minimum of £5,000 monthly on Meta ads.

Our Edge

How Does SOMS Media Manage Meta Ads Differently?

Quick Summary

Most agencies run ads or create creatives. We do both under one roof. We develop scroll-stopping content, test systematically, scale winners aggressively, and optimise daily. This integrated approach means faster iteration, better results, and no handoffs between teams.

In-House Creative Production

We produce all creatives in-house — video scripts, hook development, copy angles, visual concepts. We study competitors using Meta’s Ads Library and test multiple angles simultaneously.

Structured Testing Frameworks

We don’t test 50 random angles hoping something sticks. We test strategic variations of winning concepts. A hook that generated 3× ROAS becomes the foundation for 5 variations.

Strategic Audience Development

We build lookalike audiences from your best customers and test cold audiences systematically. Retargeting to warm audiences generates some of your highest ROAS.

Daily Optimisation and Scaling

Most agencies update weekly. We monitor daily. We adjust budgets, audiences, and bid strategies in real-time. This is what generates 4–5× ROAS consistently.

Transparent Reporting

Weekly performance summaries. Monthly detailed reports. Exactly how much you spent, revenue generated, ROAS, and what we’re doing next. No black boxes, no mystery.

Campaign strategy, audience research, in-house creative development, daily monitoring, weekly tracking, monthly reporting, conversion optimisation support, and ongoing strategic consultation. Everything required for consistent profitable growth.

Comprehensive audit of your ad account, website, and funnel. 90-day roadmap. Reveals 3–5 immediate opportunities costing brands thousands monthly.

Creative Strategy (Week 1+)

Pricing

How Much Does Meta Ads Management Cost?

Quick Summary

We charge 15–20% of monthly ad spend. £10,000 spend = £1,500–2,000 management fee. This aligns our incentives with yours — we benefit when you scale, so we’re motivated to grow your business profitably.

What’s Included in the Fee

Campaign strategy and setup. Account optimisation and restructuring. In-house creative development. Daily monitoring. Weekly and monthly reporting. Full-time strategist managing your account. Direct access to our team — no account managers or handoffs.

Minimum Budget

We work with brands spending a minimum of £5,000 monthly on Meta ads. This ensures sufficient budget for proper testing and statistically significant results.

Why Percentage-Based Pricing

If we scale your business, our fee grows. If we fail, our fee shrinks. This is how it should be. Higher budgets (above £25,000) negotiate lower percentages. Smaller budgets (£5,000–10,000) sit at the higher end.

Why We Don’t Guarantee Results

No honest agency guarantees ROAS. Market conditions, competition, product quality, and seasonality all affect results. We guarantee transparency, effort, and strategic thinking. We’ve achieved 4–5× ROAS for most clients.

Ideal Clients

Who Should Hire SOMS Media for Meta Ads?

Quick Summary

We work best with DTC brands that have product-market fit and are ready to scale. We’re not the right fit for everyone — here’s how to know if we’re right for you.

Work with us if you:

Are selling products directly to consumers via Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom platforms. Want to scale beyond 20–30% annual growth to 3× or more. Have product-market fit but struggle with profitable scaling. Want transparent reporting and results-based partnership. Are ready to commit 90 days to a structured process.

Don’t work with us if you:

Are still validating product-market fit (build that first). Want guarantees (no honest agency provides these). Prefer managing ads yourself and want to learn. Have a monthly budget below £5,000 (not enough for proper testing). Want quick fixes — scaling takes consistent effort over months.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of brands do you work with? +

We specialize in DTC and ecommerce brands. Whether you're on Shopify, WooCommerce, or a custom platform, if you're selling products online and want to scale profitably through Meta ads, we can help.

What's included in the free 20-minute audit? +

We'll personally review your ad account, website, and funnel. We'll walk you through the gaps costing you money and the quick wins that can improve your results immediately. It's pure value with no pitch and no pressure.

Do you only manage ads, or do you also create the creatives? +

Both. That's my biggest differentiator. We handle full-funnel media buying AND creative strategy including ad scripts, hooks, visual concepts, and creative testing frameworks. Your ads and your account work as one system.

What's the minimum ad budget you work with? +

We typically work with brands spending $5K or more per month on Meta ads. If you're just getting started, the audit and strategy service is a great entry point to build your foundation before scaling.

How quickly can I expect results? +

Most clients see meaningful improvements within the first 30 days after implementing creative testing and funnel optimizations. Significant scaling usually happens in the 60-90 day range as we identify and double down on winning creatives.

Do I need a website before working with you? +

Yes. A high-converting website is non-negotiable before running paid traffic. If your site isn't ready, I'll audit it first and give you a clear roadmap of what needs to be fixed before we start spending on ads.
