    What clients say

    "Thrive Media built our entire site and AI lead system in under a week. We went from manually following up with leads 6–8 hours later to having them called back in under 3 minutes. Conversion is up and our team focuses on closing, not chasing."

    Justin C.

    Real Estate Investor

    "We needed a site fast and couldn't afford to wait 3 months for an agency. Thrive had our roofing company live in 72 hours. The site loads faster than anything we had before and we're getting more calls from Google."

    Sterling C.

    Roofing Company Owner

    "I've worked with three agencies in the last two years. Thrive Media is the only one that delivered what they promised, on time, at the price quoted. The AI follow-up agent alone paid for the entire project in the first month."

    Most Simi-adjacent agencies bolt Facebook ads onto an SEO or web retainer. Paid social rewards daily optimization and tight creative-to-landing-page-to-AI-follow-up integration — that's our entire focus.

    Every agency above has strengths worth knowing about. Several Valley shops have decent SEO and Google Ads experience if those — not paid social — are your bigger lever. The distinction is delivery model, tech stack, and AI capability — and on those dimensions, the comparison is clear.

    What does Facebook ads management cost?

    Unlike agencies charging $2,000–$5,000+/month — Thrive Media's model puts more of your budget into ads, not management fees.

    Frequently asked questions

    Questions Simi Valley businesses ask before working with us.

    Is there a Facebook ads agency in Simi Valley?+

    Thrive Media runs Facebook and Instagram campaigns for Simi Valley businesses from its Thousand Oaks studio, 20 minutes west. We average 4.2x ROAS, operate project-based with no retainer, and connect every ad to a custom landing page and AI follow-up agent.

    What ROAS should a Simi Valley contractor expect?+

    Contractor and home-services campaigns we run in Simi typically land between 3x and 5x ROAS once optimized. Our portfolio averages 4.2x. Sub-2x usually means a targeting, creative, or landing-page problem — not a Facebook problem.

    How much should a Simi Valley business spend on Facebook ads?+

    $1,500–$5,000/month in ad spend is the right starting band for most local service businesses. We start lean, prove ROAS, and scale into what's working.

    What's the difference between boosting a post and running ads?+

    Boosting pushes reach to a broad audience with no funnel, no testing, no measurement. Running ads means a custom audience strategy, multiple creative variants, A/B-tested landing pages, and conversion tracking. The cost is similar — results are not.

    How does Thrive Media charge?+

    Project-based, quoted flat after a free 30-minute strategy call. No monthly retainer. No percentage of ad spend.

    Do you handle Instagram and Reels too?+

    Yes — every campaign runs across the full Meta placement set including Instagram feed, Stories, and Reels.

    Will my ad leads be followed up automatically?+

    Yes — every lead is contacted by an AI agent within 60 seconds by SMS or voice, qualified, and booked. This is the single biggest reason our campaigns outperform.

    Do we keep the ad account and audiences if we stop?+

    Yes — the ad account, audiences, pixel data, and creative are yours.
