Facebook and Instagram ads run by senior buyers, fuelled by creative we produce in-house, measured server-side so you actually know what worked.
Quick Answer
Facebook and Instagram still account for 30-50% of paid social spend for most NZ businesses, and despite every iOS-tracking change and algorithm shift, Meta remains the most efficient channel for businesses with a strong creative angle and a clear offer. At Kiwitech Labs in Auckland, we run Facebook and Instagram ads (Meta Ads) for e-commerce brands, lead-gen businesses, and B2C services across New Zealand and abroad — managed by senior buyers, fuelled by in-house creative, and measured properly so you know what actually drove revenue.

Selected Work

Setup phase (first 30 days): account audit, Conversions API + GTM server-side setup, restructure of campaigns around CBO, build of an initial creative library (12-20 ads to launch with), targeting strategy using Advantage+ Audience and Advantage+ Shopping, and a Looker Studio dashboard tying ad spend to revenue.
Ongoing (monthly): 8-15 new creative variants per month produced by our in-house design and video team (static, video, UGC-style, carousel), weekly account optimisation by your senior buyer, monthly creative testing cycle with explicit hypothesis-and-result documentation, fortnightly tactical reviews on Google Meet, and a monthly executive report with revenue attribution, ROAS by campaign, and the three things we are changing next month.
We do not sub out creative to freelancers or charge extra for it. The in-house team — designers, videographers, editors — is part of the retainer. This is the difference between agencies that talk about 'creative testing' and agencies that actually do it weekly.

Management is a flat monthly retainer, sized by how many campaigns are running, how much creative we produce, and how much of the funnel below the ad we are responsible for. We do not charge a percentage of spend — that model rewards an agency for spending more of your money. The fee is separate from ad spend, which goes to Meta directly on your own card.
We do not sell impression-volume packages or charge a percentage of ad spend (the model that incentivises agencies to spend more of your money). Flat retainer for management, spend goes to Meta on your card, you own the account. If you ever leave us you keep everything — including the creative library and the audience data.
Ad spend is separate and yours to control. E-commerce accounts generally need more of it than lead-gen and service accounts, because a purchase is a rarer event than an enquiry and the algorithm needs a workable number of them each week to optimise. We give you a recommended spend range during onboarding, based on your conversion economics and growth targets rather than a standard figure.
There is a floor below which the unit economics do not justify paying anyone to manage this — the fee eats too much of the budget, and there is too little data to optimise on. If you are under it we will say so and point you at a self-serve or in-house route rather than take the work. At the other end, high-spend accounts move to a dedicated pod with a buyer, a creative lead and a producer assigned to your account full-time.
Why Choose Us
Most Facebook ads accounts we audit have three fixable problems: weak creative (running the same static image for six months), broken tracking (relying only on pixel-based attribution after iOS 14.5 cratered it), and lazy account structure (one campaign, four ad sets, no testing system). We rebuild all three in the first 30 days. The creative gets a weekly testing cadence with our in-house production team. The tracking gets server-side via Conversions API + Google Tag Manager server-side container. The account gets restructured around CBO with proper exclusions and a structured testing framework.
Your account is run by a senior Meta buyer with 5+ years of platform experience. Not handed to a junior — the same person who pitched you runs the campaigns.
8-15 new creative variants per month from our in-house design and video team. Static, video, carousel, UGC-style — built for Reels and Stories formats natively.
Conversions API + server-side GTM container properly configured. Recovers 30-50% of conversions lost to iOS 14.5 and ad blockers. Without this, your reports are fiction.
Full deployment of Advantage+ Shopping for e-commerce and Advantage+ Audience for lead-gen. The platform algorithm outperforms narrow interest stacks in 90%+ of cases.
Weekly testing cadence with documented hypothesis, control, variant, and result. No vibes-based optimisation — every change is traceable to a test.
Live Looker Studio dashboard showing ad spend, revenue, blended ROAS, MER, and channel-level attribution. Monthly executive reports your CFO can use.
Industries
Kiwitech works with Auckland and wider New Zealand businesses across 25+ industries, but four verticals dominate our roster: property (Auckland developers, apartment launches, agency networks), education (private schools, tertiary providers, edtech), healthcare (specialist groups, dental and dermatology clinics, allied-health practices), and food and beverage (CBD and Ponsonby cafes, Britomart fine dining, food-court chains, cloud kitchens). SaaS, D2C retail, fashion boutiques across Newmarket and Ponsonby, and South Auckland industrial manufacturers round out the next tier of growing accounts.

Our Process
A 5-step playbook we run with every Auckland client. Same rigour for a single-location SMB and a multi-brand enterprise pod — only the depth changes.
Review existing pixel setup, account structure, creative library, and 90 days of historical performance. Document the top three fixable leaks.
Conversions API + server-side GTM container deployed. Match quality validated. Without proper tracking, no optimisation is real.
Campaigns restructured around CBO with proper exclusions. Initial creative library of 12-20 ads launched in week three.
Weekly creative testing cycle, weekly account optimisation, fortnightly tactical reviews. Hypothesis-driven, documented, repeatable.
As ROAS stabilises, scale spend on winning campaigns and audiences while keeping a structured testing budget running underneath.
FAQ
Enough to buy a workable number of conversions each week — that is the real threshold, and it is different for every offer. Meta needs roughly fifty conversion events per ad set per week to leave the learning phase, so the arithmetic runs backwards from your cost per conversion, not from a standard budget. E-commerce stores usually need more spend than lead-gen service businesses, because a purchase is a rarer event than an enquiry. Below the threshold you will still see results, but they will be noisy and slow to compound. We work out your specific number during onboarding.
Yes. Meta is the parent company; Facebook and Instagram are the ad platforms. 'Meta Ads' is the formal name; 'Facebook Ads' is what most people still call it. We use the terms interchangeably. Campaigns are managed in Meta Business Manager and run across both Facebook and Instagram (and Messenger and the Audience Network) by default.
Initial signals show in 1-2 weeks. Statistically meaningful results take 3-4 weeks. ROAS typically stabilises by week 6-8 once we have completed two creative testing cycles. We commit to a 90-day initial engagement so we have enough runway to ship the strategy properly.
Both — Instagram ads run through the same Meta Business Manager account as Facebook. Most of our campaigns serve impressions across Facebook Feed, Instagram Feed, Reels, Stories, and the Audience Network. We design creative natively for each placement (9:16 vertical for Reels and Stories, 1:1 square for Feed, etc.) rather than rendering one creative across all placements.
It already has — for every advertiser, not just yours. The fix is Conversions API + server-side tracking, which recovers most of the data Apple's privacy framework took away. We deploy CAPI on every account in the first two weeks. Agencies that have not done this are reporting from an account that is missing 30-50% of its conversions.
Yes. Our in-house team includes videographers, editors, and motion designers. We produce 4-8 video ads per month as part of the retainer — UGC-style talking-head ads, product demo videos, lifestyle Reels, and motion-graphic explainers. No outsourcing to freelancers, no extra creative fees.
It depends on your margin, your average order value and how considered the purchase is, so any number quoted before we see those is a guess. E-commerce is measured as blended ROAS; lead-gen and B2C services are better judged on cost per qualified lead or per booking, since a form fill that never converts is not worth paying for. What we can tell you is the shape: cheap, impulse-priced products need a higher ROAS to be profitable than high-margin considered ones, and a service with a long sales cycle can carry a much higher cost per lead and still work. We model the expected numbers for your business during onboarding using your own margin and AOV data.
