 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our business has been engaged and working with Addictive Digital for nearly a year now. In that time, Derick and team have enabled our business to create a profitable revenue stream from Meta that we weren't able to achieve before our engagement with Addictive Digital. Aside from the performance of the campaigns generated, Derick is also a great individual to work with. Humble, honest, data driven, genuinely caring...a lot of attributes you don't see via similar organisations and individuals in this space. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Addictive Digital to any fellow business owners in the future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Derick is an experienced professional, and it shows, but most importantly he clearly cares about you getting results. From our consultation, I particularly appreciated that he did not sugarcoat certain obstacles we had to overcome and clearly stated the expectations for the results to be achieved. Thank you, Derick, and best wishes for your professional growth!

Owner's reply
Thank you, Vittorio. I really appreciate the kind words.

I always believe the best results come from being clear about both the opportunities and the challenges from the outset, so I’m glad you found the consultation useful.

It was a pleasure speaking with you, and I wish you and the team every success going forward.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've worked with Derick Turner at ADdictive for three months now to run our Google Ads campaigns, and he is a pleasure to work with. He’s clearly very knowledgeable and brought a structured, thoughtful approach to campaign setup, optimisation and reporting. For the first time, after years of struggling, we have a set of fully functioning, optimised campaigns.

Derick is proactive and responsive, and I always feel confident that our campaigns are in safe hands. He's taken the time to understand our very complex business and works closely with me to refine our approach.

I’d happily recommend Derick to any business looking for an experienced and reliable Google Ads partner.

Owner's reply
Hi Jane,

It was great to work with you.

Derick is a thorough, diligent paid media expert and has been helping us achieve our objectives on paid search and paid social with invaluable advice and support. Being a small marketing team, ADdictive has been operating as a true extension of our team, with no request being too difficult and no question going unanswered. I'd recommend ADdictive to any brand looking for a boutique agency to grow their paid media channels.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Derick did a great job of getting my FB advertising unblocked and then having it verified as being FCA registered so I could advertise again on the site. I didn’t have a clue what to do, so would have been lost without him.

Owner's reply
Hi Martyn, thank you for the kind words. Let me know if you need any help in the future.

Derick Turner, Founder of ADdictive Digital

Digital Marketing Done Right!

After a decade in digital marketing, I’ve observed that many agencies fall short simply because they lack sufficient understanding of their clients’ businesses.

At ADdictive, we take a different approach. We invest the time needed to understand your business, your objectives, and the unique challenges you face, so we can help you navigate them effectively and achieve lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I choose ADdictive as my Paid Media agency?

We focus on Google and Meta Ads, with decisions informed by lead quality, acquisition costs and sales feedback. Our client case studies explain the time periods, sources and limitations behind individual results. Past results are not a forecast for your business.

What Paid Media platforms does ADdictive manage?

We run campaigns on Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, Microsoft, TikTok and other major digital platforms, selecting the right channels to deliver the best results for your business. Our service includes paid media strategy, account and campaign setup, tracking setup, management and reporting. We can also assist in website optimisation, copywriting and much more.

How much does ADdictive charge for Paid Media management?

Our standard monthly management fee starts at £1,500 or 10% of advertising spend, whichever is higher, plus VAT. Advertising spend is separate. Bespoke retainers depend on the agreed work. Your proposal confirms scope and any setup, creative or development charges before you commit.

Is there a minimum paid media contract length?

We don’t lock clients into long contracts. Instead, we earn your trust through results and service that deliver real value. Most of our contracts come with a 30-day notice period. We can offer discounts for longer-term contracts, but we usually do so once we’ve proven we’re a good paid media partner for your business.

How quickly can I expect results from paid media?

Timing depends on your starting point, budget, offer, sales cycle and tracking. We agree priorities and review points before work starts, then assess accepted enquiries and sales alongside campaign data. We do not promise a particular profit, percentage improvement or deadline.

Do you work with small businesses or only large companies?

We partner with ambitious businesses of any size, as long as there’s enough budget to achieve real, scalable growth. Whether we are a good fit for your business depends on quite a few factors. That’s why we always recommend scheduling a Discovery Call as a first step.

Can you take over an existing Google Ads or Meta Ads account?

Yes. We audit and optimise existing paid media accounts to unlock better performance, so you don’t have to start over. When working with us, you also keep full control of your paid media accounts. If you ever want to move agencies or bring things in-house, you retain the account and all its data.

How do you measure paid media success?

Unlike other agencies, we don’t measure success in impressions and clicks. We measure success by qualified leads, sales, customer acquisition cost, return on ad spend and revenue growth. When working with us, we make sure to understand what success looks like for you before the campaign starts. We aim to reach the targets set during our initial conversations, whatever they might be.

What makes ADdictive different from other Paid Media agencies?

We work with you to understand the commercial result you need and the obstacles in the full enquiry journey. We discuss scope, responsibilities, reporting and contract terms before work begins, so you can judge whether the service suits your business.

Will I own my paid media accounts?

Yes. You always own your advertising accounts, data and performance history. Transparency and control stay with you. If you ever decide to stop working with ADdictive, you are entitled to a proper handover of the account and all your marketing assets. We can even do a handover to your new agency if that’s what’s required.

Do you provide reporting?

Yes. We deliver regular reports and performance reviews, so you always know exactly how your paid media campaigns are tracking against your goals. We can also set up real-time dashboards that you have access to so that you can monitor your marketing performance whenever you’d like.

Can you improve lead quality as well as lead volume?

Improving lead quality starts with agreeing what makes an enquiry suitable for your business. We review targeting, the landing journey and sales feedback together. CRM access, qualification work and any wider sales-process support are agreed in the scope; outcomes depend on the offer, market and follow-up.

What industries do you work with most?

We specialise in Finance, Utilities and Telecoms, but our expertise extends across a wide range of sectors. Our experience includes highly regulated industries, and we are very skilled at working with businesses that have strict compliance requirements.

Do you offer landing page and conversion rate optimisation?

We review the landing journey alongside campaign performance. Design, development or conversion optimisation work is scoped in your proposal, including who delivers it, costs and responsibilities. We do not promise a particular conversion rate.

How do I get started with ADdictive?

The best way to start is to schedule a Discovery Call. During this call, we will evaluate your needs, decide if we are a good fit for your business, and discuss next steps. Once you are happy with the terms, we can send over a short-term agreement with a 30-day notice period.
