Frequently Asked Questions:

What does a PPC Manager do?

A PPC Manager runs paid search campaigns on Google Ads and Microsoft Ads, plus often paid social on Meta and LinkedIn. They handle keyword research, ad creative, bid strategy, landing page testing, conversion tracking, and weekly reporting. The job is half-numbers, half-creative, and entirely accountable to ROAS or CAC.

How much does it cost to hire a PPC Manager?

Hiring a PPC Manager in the U.S. is significantly more expensive than in Latin America, with an average U.S. salary of $6,000 per month compared with an average Latin American salary of $2,750 per month, creating potential savings of up to 54%. Working with South gives you access to a vetted pool of LatAm PPC Managers on contracts that handle compliance and payroll, with same-time-zone collaboration.

Can a U.S.-based company hire a remote PPC Manager from Latin America?

Yes. PPC is fully remote-friendly. Latin American PPC managers with prior agency experience have run six- and seven-figure budgets for U.S. clients. South contracts locally, handles compliance, and keeps them in your time zone for fast iteration on creative and bid changes.

What skills should I look for when hiring a PPC Manager?

Hands-on Google Ads expertise (Search, Performance Max, Shopping), comfort with conversion tracking via GA4, GTM, and offline conversion uploads, fluency in audience targeting and bid strategies, plus strong analytical skill in Excel or Looker Studio. Senior signal is being able to diagnose a campaign that is missing target without blaming the algorithm.

What tools and software should a PPC Manager know?

Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Meta Ads Manager, LinkedIn Campaign Manager, Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, Looker Studio, SEMrush, Ahrefs, plus Excel for budget pacing and Optmyzr or Adalysis for automation.

How is a PPC Manager different from related roles?

A PPC Manager focuses on paid search. A Paid Ads Manager covers all paid channels (search, social, programmatic). A Paid Media Buyer is similar but often more focused on programmatic and direct buys. SEO Specialists work organic. PPC is the paid keyword side.

How can South help me hire a PPC Manager?

South vets LatAm PPC managers by reviewing past account performance, running campaign teardowns on real ad accounts, and checking analytical skill on conversion data. You see a shortlist in seven to ten days, run your own interviews, and onboard in one to two weeks. Schedule a free call here to get started!

  • Walk me through your account audit process. What do you check first?
  • I give you a Google Ads account at 3.5x ROAS. Walk me through how you push it to 5x.
  • Compare Performance Max and standard Search campaigns. When do you reach for each?
  • How do you set up conversion tracking from scratch on a new e-commerce site?
  • What is your bid strategy framework? When do you use Maximize Conversions vs. Target ROAS vs. Manual?
  • Walk me through how you build a keyword list for a B2B SaaS product.
  • How do you handle a sudden spike in CPCs? What do you investigate?
  • Walk me through your weekly reporting. What does the client actually look at?
  • Tell me about a campaign you killed. Why and what did you learn?

Frequently asked questions

If you have any further questions, get in touch with our friendly team!
Why hire in Latin America?

The region has the perfect mix of everything you want in remote employees: English skills, shared time zones, hard-working, and depth of talent. They are already accustomed to working remotely for top US startups and Fortune 500 companies.

Can they work my time zone?

Absolutely! The US and Latin America have basically the same time zones. No Latin American city is more than two hours ahead of EST.

What tasks can they do? What roles can I hire for? 

Every hire is sourced based on your exact needs. They will arrive ready to support your business right away. They can do basically any tasks done remotely, but we recommend starting them as support so your team has more bandwidth for high-value strategic tasks.

All types of roles - customer service, executive assistant, sales, accounting, email marketing, lead generation, content writers, operations, social media marketing, and more!

How do I pay them? Any tax or visa issues?

You can pay directly through us (most popular) or we can connect you with one of our payroll partners.

You don't have to deal with any American labor laws / taxes when hiring full-time remote contractors. They aren't US-based, so no visas or sponsorships to deal with either.

What does this cost?

We recommend market pay which varies for each role. See our salary guide and success stories for some ideas.

Then, we have two different models:

Staffing (most popular) - We charge a small monthly fee for each employee's monthly salary to make the process hassle-free. The fee covers sourcing, recruiting, admin, payroll, compliance, ongoing support, and a free replacement if necessary at any point. There are no cancellation fees or minimum commitments. You only pay if you make a hire.

Headhunting - A one-time simple fee once we've found the perfect candidate. This comes with a 120-day replacement guarantee.

For both options, you only pay something if we find you someone great that you want to hire.

Do I have to hire full-time?

Yes, we only recruit for full-time and we strongly recommend full-time hiring if you can. Stability (full-time & long-term) is highly sought after abroad. The top caliber candidates are only looking for full-time work.

You're also going to spend time training and getting them up to speed on your processes. It would be a waste to do that over and over again with new people all the time.

Do I have to hire for an individual role or can they handle multiple roles?

We recommend training new hires on one thing at a time.

For example, once they get up to speed on lead generation, you can add the next role writing blog posts or whatever you'd like. You can definitely overlap roles until you have enough work for multiple people.

How can they be 70% less?

The cost of living is much less in Latin American countries. Many of our employees are able to own homes, raise families, provide for their parents, and have in-home help of their own with their salaries.

How does the money-back guarantee work?

If you aren't happy with your hire in the first 120 days, we will work with you to conduct a second round of search for the same role for free.

How do I reach out if I have a question?
