Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a set up fee?
No. There are no set-up fees for Advance.
Are there any ongoing fees?
There are no subscription fees with Advance.
However, we charge a 20% fee per campaign, deducted from your ad spend. So, if your campaign budget is $100, a $20 fee will be deducted from your total ad spend.
Other platforms can charge in excess of 30% for a similar service while delivering traffic to their own landing pages. Stepps Advance delivers ALL traffic from your campaigns to YOUR website.
How long does it take to set up and for my campaigns to go live?
Unlike other platforms where you have to wait days for your campaigns to go live, Advance campaigns are up and running on social media within minutes.
Can I customise my ads? i.e. headline, description, links etc
A great social media campaign drives website traffic and leads at the lowest possible cost. Period.
Advertising is not about how many ads and placements you have, but how much it cost you to achieve a result i.e. a click or a lead.
We’ve spent more than 8+ years testing social media campaigns with Australia’s leading real estate agents and brands and we’ve developed a social media ad formula that drives high volumes of traffic to your own website at a very low cost. Which in turn drives more leads, more sales and more opportunities for additional retargeting for your agents.
While spinning up lots of different ads and creating video ads might sound appealing, this often costs more, much more, to achieve a result.
Images can be changed; however, we don’t currently allow text and link elements to be changed in “Just Listed” campaigns. This is to ensure your ad performance meets our best practices for driving more website traffic and enquiries for the lowest possible ad spend.
Do I need to set anything up with my CRM provider for my listings?
If you are a Stepps website client, Advance is integrated with your website and listings already and there is no further set up required.
If you don’t have a website built by our team, we’ll just need to set up a feed of your listings from your CRM provider.
Can I share campaign previews with prospective vendors?
Yes. This is one of the best tools inside Stepps Advance and acts as a listing tool for prospective clients.
Simply create a draft campaign and apply an estimated campaign budget and duration. Then, print or email a copy of the expected campaign results to your prospective clients so they can see how their property might perform.
When you list the property, simply jump back into Stepps Advance and launch your draft campaign!
