How much should I spend per day to see results?
There isn’t one perfect number — your ideal daily budget depends on your business type, audience, and goals. But the good news is that you don’t need a large budget to start seeing results.
For most small businesses, €10–€20 per day is enough to begin gathering data and attracting real customers. This gives Google and Meta’s AI systems enough room to test, learn, and optimize your ads effectively.
Recommended daily budgets
Goal | Recommended daily budget | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
Local awareness | €5–€10 | Reach thousands of local people per week |
Website traffic or lead generation | €10–€25 | See measurable clicks and early leads |
E-commerce sales | €20–€50+ | Consistent traffic and data for optimization |
Why very small budgets don’t work well
Both Google and Meta rely on AI optimization. Their systems need enough impressions and clicks to learn what works.
If you spend only a few euros per day (for example, €2–€3), the platforms can’t collect enough data — which means it can take much longer to see meaningful results.
