Paid Performance: Meta Ads & TikTok Ads
FlashFace is a full paid performance agency, not only a production studio. We run and scale Meta Ads (Facebook and Instagram) and TikTok Ads accounts from roughly €5,000 to €500,000+ per month, handling media buying, campaign structure, audience strategy, creative testing, scaling and reporting in-house alongside the ad creative. We charge 0% of ad spend: pricing is a flat fee, per ad unit, or performance-based, so scaling your budget never automatically increases what you pay us. There is no long-term contract and no lock-in — ads are bought per unit. We work with Meta ads partner and TikTok ads partner support channels.
