bavstudios
Transparent by default

Priced to scale with you.

A monthly base retainer, a percentage of ad spend, and a one-time onboarding fee. No lock-in - a 3-month start to prove it, then month-to-month. We work best with brands investing at least $7,000/mo total (ad spend + management). You always know what you're paying for, and exactly how our incentives line up with yours.

How pricing works

Three moving parts. Nothing hidden.

Every BAVS engagement runs on the same transparent structure: a monthly base, a percentage of ad spend, and a one-time onboarding fee. You always know what you're paying for, and exactly how our incentives line up with yours.

01

Monthly base retainer

The team behind the account

One transparent monthly number for the senior strategist, the creative cadence and the always-on BAVai monitoring. No mystery line items, no junior-hours padding.

02

A % of ad spend

We earn as you scale

On top of the base, a percentage of what you spend. We get paid more only when you invest more and grow, not by the hour. Our incentive is your scale.

03

One-time onboarding

The foundation, paid upfront

A single setup fee before work starts: audit, 90-day strategy, full tracking and your first creative batch. Day zero to launch, built right so the retainer compounds.

No lock-in

A 3-month start to prove it, then month-to-month. We earn the next month every month. (Bespoke runs on a 6-month commitment.)

Core retainer tiers

Three ways in. One philosophy.

Every tier carries the same base-plus-percentage structure and the same no-lock-in start. The difference is reach, creative volume and how deep BAVai runs.

Below the floor

Creative-only

8 creative pieces/mo, brief-based. You run your own ads. No strategy, landing pages or reporting. For brands not yet ready for full ad management.

$2,000/mo

Flat

Honest fit check

We work best with brands investing at least $7,000/mo total (ad spend + management).

It is a qualifier, not a sales gate. Below that, Creative-only is the smarter move until the numbers are ready.

All prices AUD, ex-GST. Onboarding figures are starting points and scale with scope. We build the exact structure on the call, with no obligation to move forward.

Run the numbers

What is your spend actually returning?

Move the dials. See the revenue an improvement in ROAS could mean over a month and a year. This is an estimate, not a promise. The call gives you the real number.

We pull your live data and show you where the gap actually is. No obligation.

Day zero to launch

The foundation, paid upfront.

A one-time fee, paid before work starts. It funds the setup that makes everything after it work: the audit, the strategy, the tracking and your first creative. Not a tax - the runway that lets the retainer compound from week one.

What it covers

01

Account audit

We pull live data and find where the money is leaking before we touch a thing.

02

90-day strategy doc

Channel mix, creative angles, budget allocation and the KPIs we'll be judged on.

03

Creative brief

The hooks, angles and direction that turn into your first batch of tested creative.

04

Full tracking setup

Pixel, CAPI and GA4 wired correctly so every decision runs on clean numbers.

05

Initial campaign build

Account structure and campaigns built right the first time, ready to launch.

06

First creative batch

Your opening set of statics and motion, in market from the very first week.

Onboarding by tier
One-time
Launch$1,500
Growth$2,500
Scale$3,500
Bespoke$5,000+

Scales with scope. A standalone Strategy Sprint can count toward onboarding if you retain within 60 days.

Optional add-on

Want us to have skin in the game?

On top of the base retainer, you can add a ROAS bonus. Targets are agreed in writing and reviewed quarterly. We only earn it when we beat the number - it never replaces the base, and it is a reward for outperformance, not a promise of results.

+5%of ad spend

Hit target ROAS

We deliver the number we agreed in writing.

+10%of ad spend

Beat target by 25%+

We push past the agreed number, meaningfully.

+15%of ad spend

Beat target by 50%+

We blow the agreed number out of the water.

The bonus is calculated on that month's ad spend and only applies when the agreed target is hit or beaten. It is a reward for outperformance, layered on top of - never instead of - the base retainer.

Beyond the retainer

Add exactly what you need.

One-off projects to solve a specific problem, or monthly bolt-ons to deepen an existing retainer. Same senior team, same standard, priced clean.
