Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about working with KM&N Media — our services, process, pricing approach, and what to expect when we work together. If your question is not here, contact us directly.
What services does KM&N Media offer?
KM&N Media offers paid advertising (Google Ads and Meta Ads), SEO, social media management, marketing automation, CRM integration, and AI-assisted content production. We specialise in building complete revenue pipelines — not just running ads — so every service we offer connects to a measurable growth outcome.
Where is KM&N Media based?
Our studio is based in New Town, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. We work with clients nationally across India and take on select international accounts. Our Kolkata base gives us close working relationships with the large education and services sector concentrated in the eastern India market.
Do you work with education institutions?
Yes — education is one of our primary verticals. We run admission-season Google Ads and Meta campaigns for colleges, universities, coaching institutes, and education consultancies across India. We understand admission cycles, dual decision-makers (student and parent), seasonal budget windows, and the lead quality challenges unique to education marketing.
What is your process when onboarding a new client?
Onboarding follows four stages: (1) Discovery — a structured intake call to map business goals, target audience, and current marketing performance. (2) Audit — we review your ad accounts, website, analytics, and CRM setup. (3) Strategy — a written growth plan with channel mix, budget allocation, and 90-day KPIs. (4) Execution — campaigns go live, tracked against agreed benchmarks from day one.
How long does it take to see results?
Paid campaigns (Google and Meta) typically generate trackable lead volume within the first 2–4 weeks. SEO takes longer — meaningful organic ranking improvements are generally visible in 3–6 months. We set realistic expectations during onboarding and provide weekly progress updates so you always know where you stand.
Do you offer performance-based pricing?
We offer hybrid pricing models for established clients with strong conversion data — a base retainer plus a performance component tied to agreed CPL or revenue benchmarks. For new clients, we begin on a standard retainer for the first 90 days to build reliable baseline data before moving to performance structures. We do not offer pure performance-only engagements for new accounts.
What is the minimum engagement?
Our standard minimum engagement is three months. This reflects the reality of campaign optimisation — paid ads need 4–6 weeks of learning data before meaningful adjustments can be made, and SEO and content work have even longer compounding cycles. One-off projects (single campaigns, audits, strategy documents) are also available without a minimum term.
What reporting do you provide?
Every active retainer client receives a monthly performance report covering spend, impressions, clicks, conversions, cost-per-lead or cost-per-acquisition, and commentary on what changed and why. We also provide access to a live dashboard connected to your ad accounts so you can check current performance at any time. Reporting is designed to answer the question "what did we get for our money?" — not to impress with data volume.
Do you take on one-off projects?
Yes. We take on standalone engagements including Google Ads account audits, Meta campaign strategy documents, SEO technical audits, landing page critiques, and marketing automation reviews. These are scoped as fixed-price projects with a defined deliverable and turnaround time. Contact us with your specific requirement and we will confirm scope and pricing within 24 hours.
What makes KM&N Media different from other digital marketing agencies?
Three things: niche depth, system thinking, and transparency. We do not serve every industry equally — we go deep in education, professional services, and growth-stage businesses, which means we bring playbooks refined over dozens of campaigns in each vertical. We build marketing systems, not just campaigns, so growth compounds instead of resetting with each budget cycle. And we show you everything — no black-box reporting, no inflated vanity metrics.
How do AI tools fit into your work?
We use AI tools across creative production (copy variants, image direction, video scripting), data analysis (pattern detection in ad performance, audience segmentation), and automation (lead routing, CRM enrichment, follow-up sequences). AI accelerates our output and reduces cost-per-deliverable, and we pass that efficiency to clients through better results at competitive rates. All AI output is reviewed and refined by our team before it reaches your campaigns.
Do you work with startups?
Yes, selectively. We work with funded startups and early-stage businesses that have product-market fit and a clear customer acquisition thesis. We are not the right fit for pre-revenue businesses that need a marketing agency to validate their product idea. If you have paying customers and need to scale acquisition systematically, we want to talk.
What does your team look like?
KM&N Media operates as a focused specialist team: a strategy lead, paid media managers for Google and Meta, an SEO specialist, a content and creative lead, and an automation and CRM engineer. We do not run a large general-purpose agency — we run a tight team with deep vertical expertise. For specialist production work (video production, advanced web development), we work with a vetted network of partners.
How do I get started?
The fastest path is to fill in the contact form at kmn.media/contact. Describe your business, what you are trying to achieve, and your timeline. We will respond within 24 hours with an initial questionnaire and schedule a discovery call. There is no sales pressure — the first call is a structured conversation to determine whether we are a good fit for your goals.
What industries do you specialise in?
Our three primary verticals are education (colleges, universities, coaching, ed-tech), professional services (law, finance, healthcare, consulting), and growth-stage consumer businesses (D2C brands, SaaS, and service businesses with a defined growth target). We also work with real estate, hospitality, and B2B companies on a case-by-case basis where the brief aligns with our expertise.
Do you offer SEO services?
Yes. Our SEO offering covers technical SEO (Core Web Vitals, structured data, crawl architecture), on-page optimisation (keyword mapping, content briefs, internal linking), off-page authority building (digital PR, link acquisition), and local SEO for businesses targeting specific geographies. SEO engagements are typically six-month minimums and are most effective when paired with a content production programme.
Can you run both Google Ads and Meta Ads simultaneously?
Yes — and we recommend it for most clients with sufficient budget. Google captures existing demand (people already searching for what you offer); Meta creates demand (reaching people before they search). Together they cover the full funnel from awareness to conversion. We manage both from a single team, which means the audience data, creative learning, and conversion signals inform each other rather than operating in silos.
Do you manage social media accounts?
We manage organic social media as an add-on to paid media retainers, not as a standalone service. Organic social (content calendars, post production, community management for Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn) works best when it amplifies and reinforces a paid strategy. We do not take on pure social media management accounts without a paid media component.
What tools do you use?
On the paid side: Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, Google Analytics 4, Looker Studio for reporting, and Google Tag Manager. For SEO: Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console. For automation and CRM: HubSpot, Zoho CRM, and custom webhook integrations. For creative production: Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, and AI-assisted tools for copy and image generation. We are tool-agnostic and work within your existing stack wherever possible.
