Digital marketing services for businesses in Hesse
Every engagement is built from the same components — chosen and weighted for your category, budget and customers in Hesse. Most clients start with two or three of these and add more once the economics are proven.
Performance Marketing
Full-funnel paid media run against your margins. We set break-even ROAS and a target cost per acquisition first, then plan Google, Meta and other channels around what customers in Hesse actually respond to. Budgets move every week toward whatever produces the cheapest incremental sales or qualified leads — not the loudest platform numbers.
Google Ads
Search, Performance Max, Shopping, YouTube and Demand Gen campaigns built around high-intent searches in Hesse. We fix conversion tracking first, separate brand from non-brand, use location and language targeting deliberately, and report on cost per qualified lead or sale rather than clicks and impressions.
Meta Ads
Facebook and Instagram campaigns driven by creative testing — new hooks, formats and offers every week — with the Conversions API for reliable signals and audiences shaped for Hesse. Lead campaigns route straight to WhatsApp or your CRM so your team can follow up within minutes.
SEO
Technical SEO, content and authority building aimed at the searches buyers in Hesse make before they contact a business. We fix crawl, speed and indexing problems first, then build service, location and comparison pages that can rank in Google and be cited in AI answers.
AEO & GEO (AI Search)
Answer engine and generative engine optimisation: answer-first content, clear entity information and structured data that help your business appear in Google's AI features, ChatGPT and other assistants when buyers in Hesse ask for recommendations.
LinkedIn Ads
LinkedIn campaigns for B2B companies selling in Hesse: job-title, industry and company targeting, account-based lists, lead forms synced to your CRM, and reporting on pipeline and revenue rather than cost per lead alone.
Marketplace Marketing
Amazon and regional marketplace advertising and listing optimisation, balanced with your own website so you grow sales in Hesse without handing all your margin to marketplaces.
Web Design & Development
Fast, conversion-focused websites and landing pages — clear offers, trust signals, mobile-first forms and proper tracking — so the traffic you pay for in Hesse actually turns into enquiries and sales.
How we work with businesses in Hesse
- Audit (week 0–1). We review your ad accounts, analytics, tracking, website and competitors in Hesse, and send a written audit: what's broken, what's wasted, and the three moves we'd make first.
- Plan (week 1–2). A measurement plan, break-even ROAS and target CAC, a channel mix for Hesse, creative planned in German, English and Turkish, and a 90-day roadmap with owners and dates.
- Launch (week 2–4). Clean campaign structures, verified conversion tracking, the first creative sprint and landing-page fixes that remove obvious friction.
- Optimise (months 2–3). Weekly tests across audiences, bidding, creative and pages, with budget shifting toward the cheapest incremental results.
- Scale (month 3 onwards). New channels, cities and markets and retention loops — added only when the economics hold at higher spend.
Live working-hours overlap with Hesse: 9am–5:30pm German time in summer (9am–4:30pm in winter). Every client gets a shared WhatsApp group, a weekly 30-minute call with the strategist who runs the account, a live dashboard and a written change log. See how we work for the full process.

What does digital marketing cost for a business in Hesse?
We quote after a free audit, based on scope rather than geography: the number of channels and markets, your monthly ad spend, creative volume, languages and tracking complexity. Your ad spend is paid directly to Google, Meta and other platforms from your own accounts, in Euro (EUR) — it never passes through us.
PMG charges a fixed monthly fee, a percentage of ad spend or a hybrid — whichever keeps incentives cleanest — and many clients add a performance-linked component once tracking is reliable. Minimum terms are short. See pricing for what drives cost and how to compare agency quotes.

Frequently asked questions

Yes — with BaFin-aware claims, risk warnings and compliant landing pages. See fintech.
Should Frankfurt campaigns run in English?
For some B2B and expat audiences, yes — alongside German for broad reach.
Can you advertise pharmaceuticals in Germany?
Within strict limits — the HWG restricts what can be said to the public, so we plan claims carefully.
Can you target Frankfurt Airport travellers?
Yes — location and interest targeting for transit, business and hotel audiences around the airport.
Do you work with Darmstadt software companies?
Yes — B2B pipeline programmes.
Do fintechs need BaFin approval to advertise?
Regulated activities need appropriate licensing, and promotions must follow BaFin and EU rules.
How much does it cost to hire a digital marketing agency in Hesse?
PMG quotes after a free audit — a fixed monthly fee, a percentage of ad spend or a hybrid, depending on channels, markets, creative volume and tracking. Ad spend is paid directly to the platforms from your own accounts.
How long does it take to see results from digital marketing in Hesse?
Tracking fixes and search campaigns often show improvement within two to four weeks. Prospecting on Meta or YouTube usually needs three to six weeks of creative testing, and SEO compounds over three to nine months. We agree leading indicators for each channel so you are never guessing.
Do we need to sign a long contract?
No. Minimum terms are short, because we would rather keep clients with results than with contracts. Ad accounts, data and creative stay in your name throughout.
Will we own our ad accounts and data?
Yes. Campaigns run in your own Google, Meta and other ad accounts with partner access for PMG, and you can see everything at any time.
