CKSA Marketing — Paid ads and lead systems for Australian businesses
Now booking · Q3 2026

Ads don't grow your business.
Systems do.

A Sydney agency for Australian small businesses. Meta and Google ad campaigns, wired into the automation and follow-up systems that turn leads into booked calls — built and run by one operator.

📍Based in Sydney, AU One operator. End to end. 🔓No lock-in contracts
What I do

Two services. Built to work as one.

Most agencies stop at the click. I'm more useful at the part that comes after — the response time, the follow-up, the system that turns interest into a booked call.

Paid acquisition

Meta and Google campaigns built end-to-end. Strategy, creative direction, build, and ongoing optimisation — handled by the same person who designed it.

  • Meta Ads (Facebook + Instagram)
  • Google Ads (Search + Performance Max)
  • Landing pages and conversion testing
  • Weekly reporting and optimisation

Lead systems

The infrastructure behind the ads. Automation that captures every lead, responds instantly, and books the call before your competitor has even seen the enquiry.

  • Instant lead capture and SMS response
  • Email and SMS nurture sequences
  • Booking flows and calendar automation
  • CRM pipeline setup and reporting
Why work with me

Small operation. Sharper focus.

You get the strategist running your campaigns — not an account manager passing your work to a junior.

One operator

You work with the person doing the work. No account manager handovers, no junior strategists.

Fast by design

No approval chains. When something needs to change, it changes today — not in two weeks.

Built together

Ads and follow-up systems designed alongside each other. Not bolted on after.

You own it

Everything runs on your accounts. No lock-in, no proprietary tools you can't take with you.

The agency model isn't built for small businesses.

Big agencies pitch you a team and assign your account to whoever's free. Your campaigns end up paying for their office rent and their staff lunches before they pay for your ads.

I work directly with a small number of clients at a time. Less overhead, faster decisions, more of your budget going to where it actually matters — the campaigns themselves.

About

Built on the work, not the pitch.

C

A small, deliberate operation.

CKSA is run by one person — me — with focused attention on a small number of clients at a time. Based in Sydney, working with Australian small businesses.

The premise is simple: most paid ad campaigns underperform because nothing happens fast enough after the lead arrives. The fix isn't a better ad. It's the system that catches the lead, responds in seconds, and follows up for weeks if it has to.

That's what I build. Ads and the systems behind them, designed together, run together.

Open for new clients

Taking on a small number of Australian engagements through 2026.

Two to three new clients per quarter — so each gets the attention it needs. If you're an Australian small business spending on ads (or about to), and you want the system behind them built properly from the start, that's where I'm most useful.

FAQ

Common questions.

Practical answers, no fluff. If you have a question that isn't here, ask it in the form below.

Who do you work with?
Australian small businesses that are spending on ads — or about to — and want the follow-up system built properly alongside them. I work best with operators who care about the leads themselves, not just the click metrics.
How much do you charge?
Engagements are typically a setup fee for building the systems, plus a monthly retainer for ongoing campaign management and optimisation. The exact numbers depend on scope and channels — we'll talk through this on a discovery call so the proposal fits what you actually need.
Do you require long contracts?
No. Engagements are month to month. If I'm not delivering value, you should be able to walk away — and you can. The work has to keep earning the relationship.
What channels do you work with?
Meta (Facebook + Instagram) and Google (Search + Performance Max) for paid acquisition. The lead automation systems are built on industry-standard CRM and automation tools, all running on your accounts so you keep ownership.
How quickly will I see results?
Honest answer: it depends on your offer, your industry, and where you're starting from. Most clients see meaningful traction within 4–8 weeks of launch. Anyone promising guaranteed results in a specific timeframe is selling you something they can't deliver.
Do I own my accounts and data?
Yes. Everything is built in your name on your accounts — your ad accounts, your CRM, your domains. You retain ownership of everything. If we ever part ways, you keep all of it.
What's the first step?
A 30-minute call. No pitch, no obligation — just a look at what you're doing now and an honest read on whether I can help. Use the form below to get something on the calendar.
