How the calculator works

Three steps, no black box

The calculator uses the CPC ranges per industry that I see in my own search campaigns in the DACH market. That is why it returns ranges on purpose, not point estimates.

  1. 01

    Clicks: budget divided by cost per click

    Your monthly budget divided by the low and the high CPC of the industry gives the range of clicks. With €2,000 and a CPC of €1.50 to €4.00 that is 500 to 1,333 clicks.

  2. 02

    Leads: clicks times conversion rate

    Clicks multiplied by your conversion rate give the leads. At 3%, 500 to 1,333 clicks become 15 to 40 leads per month.

  3. 03

    Cost per lead: budget divided by leads

    The budget divided by the leads shows what one lead costs you: here €50 to €133. Compare that number with the value of a new customer.

Embed it

Add it to your website

The calculator is a genuinely useful tool for your readers: embed it for free via iframe on your site, blog or guide. The code carries a short, visible credit linking back to mjmads.com, that is all I ask for.

Free to embed, no sign-up, private and commercial sites alike. One condition: the credit line with the link to mjmads.com stays visible.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the budget calculator?

It works with the CPC ranges I see in my own DACH search campaigns and deliberately returns ranges instead of point estimates. Your real costs depend on region, competition, seasonality and account quality. For reliable numbers I look at your industry and account in a free call.

What is the minimum Google Ads budget I need?

As a rule of thumb I recommend at least €1,000 media budget per month. Below that, the system collects too little data to optimise bids and audiences properly.

What does management cost on top of the budget?

Ongoing management starts from €1,000/month, on top of the ad budget. The final fee depends on the scope of your account. 3-month start phase (minimum term), then cancel monthly.
