How it works

Live in about a week.

Tell us your goal

A 15-minute call or email with Stephen. What do you sell, who buys it, what should happen next.

We build the ads

Our designer makes the creative for every placement you bought. You approve it on a private proof page.

Go live, get reports

Campaign starts, usually within 7 days. You get a plain-English report every month and a check-in call.

Questions

The short answers.

Do I need to sign a contract?

No. Plans are month to month. Annual plans are billed as 10 months and run 12, and can be paid in two halves.

Who makes the ad?

We do, at no charge, for every plan and add-on. Send a logo and a sentence about the offer. You can swap creative as often as you like.

What is a Facebook post, exactly?

A post on the TXK Today page, written with you, with your photo or video and a link. It goes out to 115,000+ followers and is labeled as sponsored. Our typical post reaches tens of thousands of people in the first day.

Can I just buy an add-on without a plan?

Yes. Every add-on is available by itself. Plan customers get 10% off add-ons.

What does "ad views" mean?

Times your ad was actually shown to a reader, counted by our ad server. Estimates are based on the past three months of traffic. Your monthly report shows the real number.

Do you offer websites or SEO?

Yes. We build small-business websites and landing pages, and we consult on local search. Ask Stephen for a quote.
