Does Ecommerce Setup Include Ongoing Ad Management?

Short answer: No—Abiyas Digital Marketing’s Ecommerce Setup includes one ad campaign structure per platform within the selected package, not ongoing ad management. Ongoing ad optimization and budget monitoring are listed in Ecommerce Growth at US$249 per month per store for one platform, covering up to three active campaigns. Advertising spend and platform subscriptions are separate from those service fees, and applicable taxes are extra.

The buyer decision here is about the boundary between a one-time deliverable and recurring work. It is not a comparison of sales channels or a general guide to ecommerce management prices. If your request is “build the campaign structure” rather than “keep optimizing campaigns each month,” the published packages describe different services for those jobs.

What campaign work is included in Ecommerce Setup?

Ecommerce Setup includes one ad campaign structure per platform within the chosen package. Its wider onboarding work covers store or marketplace account setup, catalog and listing structure, product listing optimization, order and inventory workflow, policy and account-health review, and basic analytics integration.

The published Setup choices are:

Package	One-time fee	Platform and catalog limit	Campaign structure
Ecommerce Setup — One	US$199	1 platform; up to 30 SKUs/listings	1 campaign structure
Ecommerce Setup — Dual	US$299	2 platforms; up to 50 SKUs/listings total	1 per platform
Ecommerce Setup — Multi	US$399	Up to 3 platforms; up to 80 SKUs/listings total	1 per platform

The catalog limits for Dual and Multi are combined totals, not a separate allowance for each platform. Package limits and any additional work are confirmed in the written quote. The pricing page separates account/listing onboarding from a full storefront build.

Which plan includes ongoing ad optimization?

Ecommerce Growth lists ongoing ad optimization and budget monitoring for up to three active campaigns. The fee is US$249 per month per store, covering one platform. This is the recurring campaign work listed separately from Setup’s one-time campaign structure.

Growth includes Care services and raises the monthly listing create/edit limit to 40. It also includes conversion and listing improvements, cross-channel growth tweaks, priority support, a monthly report, and one monthly check-in call of up to 30 minutes.

Those inclusions do not remove the one-platform limit. Cross-channel tweaks are not a promise of complete operations across unlimited platforms. Additional platforms and work beyond the agreed scope require a separate quote.

For the wider recurring-work context, read ecommerce store maintenance and operations costs. Use the current pricing and FAQ for the exact named-plan inclusions.

Does Ecommerce Care include the same campaign work?

Ongoing ad optimization is listed in Growth, not in Ecommerce Care’s published inclusions. Care costs US$79 per month per store for one platform, with up to 20 listing creates or edits monthly and an approximately three-hour task allowance.

Care covers catalog management, inventory and order-flow checks, account-health monitoring, variant consistency checks, late-shipment and cancellation monitoring, and a monthly async report. These are ongoing operating tasks, but they should not be relabelled as ongoing advertising optimization.

The distinction matters when reading a proposal that uses “care” or “management” loosely. Ask which named package is being quoted and what campaign work it contains. The written scope, rather than a general service label, confirms what is included.

Is the advertising budget included in either service fee?

No. Advertising spend is excluded from Setup and Growth service fees. Platform subscriptions are excluded too. Paying for a campaign structure or ongoing optimization does not make the same amount available as advertising spend on the platform.

Published prices are in USD; CAD invoices are available on request. Applicable taxes, including HST where required, are extra. The pages do not publish a fixed CAD conversion rate, so use your project quote or invoice rather than assuming the USD number is also the CAD amount.

The package descriptions identify work, not a guaranteed sales figure. No promised revenue or return-on-ad-spend result should be added to the published scope.

Do I need a new website to buy these services?

No. Account onboarding and ongoing marketplace operations are separate from a full Ecommerce Storefront build. You can have marketplace listings and advertising work handled without commissioning a new website.

Ecommerce Storefront is a separate one-time US$1,499 Shopify or WooCommerce website package; marketplace channel setup is not included in that website price. Its existence does not change what Setup includes for campaign structure or what Growth includes for ongoing optimization.

What if my campaign or platform needs exceed the package?

The agency separately quotes additional platforms, SKUs, and work beyond package limits. Large catalogs and complex multi-channel stores receive a project-specific scope, not an unlimited-service promise. Extra work and its price are confirmed before it begins.

Describe the platforms involved and whether you want initial campaign structure, ongoing optimization, or both. That is a practical quote checklist, not a promise that every campaign request fits a published package. Read the FAQ and confirm the agreed work in writing.

What else should I know?

How do I confirm the campaign work in my quote?

Start with the published package limits, then request a written quote that identifies the platforms and campaign work included. The broader ecommerce operations pricing guide provides context, while the pricing page and FAQ define the current service boundaries.
