An example

One bike shop, start to finish.

Brass & Spoke is an independent bike shop in east London. It is not real, but everything that happens to it here is how the service actually works.

An example shop. The story is how the service works, the shop is made up.

  1. 1

    The shopRight now

    A good shop on a quiet street.

    Fair prices, proper work, open seven days. And every week the people within a mile of his door pick somewhere else, because they have never heard of him.

    SunilSunday evening

    He knows ads would help. He has no idea how.

    Business Manager, pixels, audiences, ad sizes. He got as far as the login, twice. An agency wanted a monthly retainer before a single ad ran.

    • Business Manager
    • Pixel
    • Audiences
    • Ad sizes
    • Card on file
    • Or none of that.

    He types in the website.

    That is the whole brief. We read the photos, the colours, the services and the words ourselves. Nothing to write, nothing to upload.

    He answers two questions.

    Where are your customers, and where should a click go. Multiple choice, on his phone, and each one has a sensible answer already ticked.

    He tops up his account.

    Less than one service. Making the ads was free, running them is free. He chose to pay for clicks to his website, and the other option is reaching as many local people as possible. Nothing ran until he said so, and he can stop any time.

What we did

What we do not do

No videos, no competitions, no running your Instagram, no promises of going viral. Ten ads, shown locally, and nothing runs until you say so.

Four small jobs. Everything else was ours.
