FAQ

Questions Portland buyers actually ask.

What does a Portland marketing agency like Ad-Apt actually do?+

We run paid media (Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, programmatic), SEO and AEO, build and host edge-native websites, set up analytics and attribution, and automate CRM and lifecycle email. We are an integrated performance team rather than a single-discipline agency.

How much do Portland marketing agencies charge?+

Mid-market and enterprise engagements typically range from $5K to $50K+ per month depending on scope and ad spend. Project work for websites and infrastructure is scoped separately. Smaller businesses can use our productized service starting at $19.99/mo via askonit.com.

Do you only serve Portland and Oregon clients?+

We are headquartered in Lake Oswego, Oregon and serve the Portland metro (Beaverton, Hillsboro, Vancouver WA). Most enterprise clients are distributed across the United States. Remote engagements are standard.

How is Ad-Apt different from other Portland marketing companies?+

Most Portland agencies focus on a single layer — creative, ads, or web. Ad-Apt combines marketing, software engineering, and operations under one roof. 50+ brands shipped since 2011, including Circle K, Netflix, True Blue Car Wash, and TastyTrade.

Can you start fast?+

Yes. Most engagements move from intro call to active work in 7-14 days. Paid media accounts can be live the same week.

Do you handle SEO and AEO together?+

Yes. Search and Answer Engine Optimization are run as one practice because the underlying surface area — structured content, schema, citations, and authority — overlaps almost completely. We also offer a free AEO audit on your existing site.
