What we do
Paid search, paid social, SEO, and AI search. Nothing else, on purpose.
Paid search
Google and Microsoft Ads, from account build-out to weekly optimization. Search, Shopping, Performance Max, Local Services.
PPC managementPaid social
Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube campaigns built around the creative that converts, not the creative that wins awards.
Social advertisingSearch engine optimization
Technical fixes, content that ranks, and links you'd be comfortable showing a client. Measured in leads, not keyword counts.
SEO servicesAI search optimization
Getting your business cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google's AI Mode when someone asks who to hire. Also called generative engine optimization. The newest thing we do, and the fastest growing.
AI SEO / GEOThe usual model, and ours.
Most agencies are built to sign clients, not to keep them. We built ours the other way around.
“Ernst Media has been a valuable partner to our agency, especially in the highly regulated industries we serve. They've gone to bat for us with platform support more than once and have become our go-to partner for all things digital marketing. Our partnership has grown to include campaign reporting, expensing, and strategic guidance as we continue to refine and grow our clients' digital marketing efforts.”
“Evan and his team have been invaluable to our marketing. They've helped us take our online advertising to the next level, and they're always happy to explain what they're doing and why.”
Straight answers.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. Everything is month to month. We'd rather keep you by performing than by paperwork.
What does it actually cost?
$95 an hour, flat, for every service. Hours depend on the account, not the budget, so we estimate after looking at what you're running, and you see actual hours on every invoice.
Who owns the ad accounts?
You do, always. We work inside accounts you own, and you keep every campaign, audience, and report if you ever leave.
How soon will I see results?
Paid campaigns usually show a clear direction within 30 to 60 days. SEO and AI search take longer, typically three to six months to move meaningfully. We'll tell you which is which on the first call.
Do you work with businesses outside Washington?
Most of our clients are outside Spokane. We work with companies across the US and a few beyond it; everything happens over video and shared dashboards.
Is there a minimum ad spend?
We're most useful to businesses spending at least $500 a month on ads. Below that, the management cost usually outweighs the gain, and we'll say so.
Tell us what you're working on.
We read every message the same day. If it looks like a fit, the next step is a 30-minute call, not a sales sequence.
