Pricing
$500 starts it. That covers your first month and 4 ad concepts.
No big setup invoice before you know if this works. One $500 payment gets the tracking built, the first month managed, and 4 genuinely different ads in front of your buyers so Meta can start learning.
The start
$500
one payment, covers month 1
- CRM pipeline set up: new, qualified, booked, showed, won
- Speed-to-lead: instant reply to every new lead, plus an alert to you
- Conversions API loop, so Meta learns which leads became booked jobs
- 4 distinct ad concepts: different angles and formats, not four copies of one ad
- Campaign launch and first month of management
- Weekly dashboard from week one
From month 2
$1,000/mo
management, flat
- Weekly scale, hold or kill decisions on every ad
- New concepts tested against the winners
- Optimizing toward qualified and booked leads as data allows
- Weekly dashboard, bad news first
Plus ad spend, paid directly to Meta
At least $1,500 a month, about $50 a day, from your card to Meta in an ad account in your name. You see every dollar.
The 90 days
Why we ask for 90 days, and what they cost
Meta needs time and data to learn who your buyers are. Judge the ads at week two and you paid for the learning without staying for the payoff. So the commitment is 90 days.
| Month | MDSAI fee | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Month 1 | $500 | Setup + management + 4 ad concepts |
| Month 2 | $1,000 | Optimize: keep what books, cut what does not |
| Month 3 | $1,000 | Feed Meta qualified and booked leads |
| 90-day total | $2,500 | Then month to month |
Ad spend is on top of this and goes directly to Meta: at least $1,500 a month.
The guarantee
Three promises we control. Miss one, next month’s management fee is on us.
- Tracking is live and tested end to end before a single dollar of ad spend goes out.
- You get a dashboard every week, with the same numbers we see, bad news first.
- More qualified leads in your CRM than your own 90-day baseline before we started, as long as leads get a reply within 5 minutes. No lead records? Your baseline is zero.
We do not promise a lead count, a return on ad spend or revenue before there is data. Anyone who does is guessing. We promise what we control, and we put a month of fees behind it.
Straight answer
Who this is not for
- Businesses that cannot put at least $1,500 a month into ads for 90 days.
- Owners who need guaranteed lead counts before any data exists.
- Businesses that are booked solid and cannot take more work.
- Anyone unwilling to answer leads fast. Slow follow-up makes good ads fail.

Pricing questions
How much does MDSAI charge for Meta ads?
MDSAI charges $500 to start, which covers setup, the first month of management and 4 distinct ad concepts. From month two it is $1,000 a month. Ad spend is separate, at least $1,500 a month, and you pay it directly to Meta.
Why is the start only $500?
To make the first step easy. The hardest part of Meta ads for a service business is giving Meta enough time and data to learn who your buyers are. A low start lets you commit to the 90 days that learning takes, instead of judging the ads after two weeks.
Why a 90-day minimum?
The first weeks are Meta’s learning phase, when results are noisy on purpose. By days 60 to 90 there is usually enough data to optimize on qualified or booked leads instead of raw form fills. Stopping before that means paying for the learning and leaving before the payoff.
Do I pay the ad spend to you?
No. Ad spend goes straight from your card to Meta, in an ad account in your name. You can see every dollar in Meta Ads Manager. MDSAI is paid only the management fee.
What does the guarantee cover?
Three things MDSAI controls: tracking live and tested before any spend, a dashboard every week, and more qualified leads than your own 90-day baseline, as long as leads get a reply within 5 minutes. Miss any one of those and we waive your next month’s $1,000 management fee.
Are there setup fees later, or long contracts after 90 days?
No hidden fees. After the first 90 days it is month to month at the same rate. Scaling (more budget, more concepts, new service lines or areas) is priced after a conversation, because no two businesses scale the same way.
