Our Google Ads management fee, published in full
Our Google Ads management fee is a flat monthly amount, from RM800, to run your Google Search Ads. Your ad budget goes straight to Google, not through us, so you always see what you pay for management and what you spend on clicks.
The fee is on the page, not hidden behind a sales call.
Your Google Ads management fee, plus ad spend
There are two separate costs. We only ever invoice you for one of them.
Google Ads management fee
A fixed amount for setting up, running and improving your campaigns. It doesn’t rise as you spend more within your plan.
Ad spend
The cost of the clicks, charged to your own card on your own Google Ads account. You set the budget.
Nothing hidden
You can check every ringgit of ad spend inside your own Google Ads account.

Why our Google Ads management fee is flat
You pay for the work, not a share of your budget.
No percentage of ad spend
Within your plan, raising your budget doesn’t raise our fee.
No markup on clicks
Google charges your card directly, so the click costs you see are the click costs you pay.
One channel, done by hand
We only run Google Search Ads, with no Display, YouTube, Performance Max or social media, and no account managers in between.
Google Ads management fee questions
Is the ad spend included in the management fee?
No. Ad spend is paid by you directly to Google, using your own card on your own Google Ads account. Our fee covers the work of running the campaigns. Keeping them separate means you can see exactly where your money goes.
How much should I spend on ads each month?
It depends on how many people search for your service in your area and what each click costs. We’ll suggest a starting budget after the free audit. You set the final number, and you can change it at any time.
What does manual CPC bidding mean for me?
CPC is cost per click. With manual bidding, we set the maximum bid for each keyword ourselves, instead of letting Google’s automated bidding decide. The actual cost of each click still varies, because it depends on the auction and on competitors’ bids, and it is often below the maximum. What manual bidding gives you is control: we decide how much each keyword is worth bidding for, and we lower or pause bids on keywords that don’t bring enquiries.
Why only Google Search Ads?
Search ads appear when someone is already looking for your service, like “lori pindah rumah klang” or “scrap metal buyer KL”. For local service businesses, that’s usually where enquiries come from. Focusing on one channel lets us do it properly.
What if my ad spend grows past my plan?
We’ll let you know and talk it through before anything changes. Your fee only moves up a plan if you agree to it.
Do I need a new website?
Not always. If your current site loads quickly on mobile and makes it easy to call or WhatsApp you, we can send ads to it. If it doesn’t, a landing page usually makes your ad spend go further. See our services for website options.
Should I rent a website or buy one?
Buy one if you want to own it long term and already have a budget for the build. Rent one if you’d rather start getting enquiries without an upfront cost, and have us run the website, SEO and ads for you. Renting has a 12-month minimum, and the website stays with ZHEA if you stop.
Do you charge SST?
No. Zhea Digital Marketing Agency is not SST registered, so no SST is added to our invoices.
Not sure which plan fits?
Send us your website and the areas you serve. We’ll check your keywords and likely click costs, then recommend a plan and a starting budget. Free, with no obligation.
