How much do Chicago ad campaigns cost?

Chicago Google Ads: $1,500–$10,000/month for local SMB. Facebook: similar. Chicago radio: $500–$5,000 per spot campaign. Print: $200–$3,000 per placement. Media Express handles budgets from $2,500/month up.

What's the ROI on advertising?

Depends on channel + industry + creative quality. Chicago SMB benchmarks: Google Search Ads 3–8x ROAS, Facebook 2–5x, radio hard to measure directly (attribution model needed). Media Express tracks and reports.

Should I run radio ads?

Yes for Chicago local awareness — especially Polish/Spanish-language stations where CPMs are cheap. No for direct-response only campaigns (radio is a brand-builder). Media Express reads your goals and advises honestly.

Who writes the ad copy and creates the visuals?

Media Express in-house team writes and produces all creative — no white-label. Chicago voice actors for radio, Chicago-based video crews for TV/YouTube, in-house designers for print/digital.
