Founder-led Pretoria agency offering web design, Google Ads, SEO and AI search
About Juicy Designs
Juicy Designs is a digital marketing agency at 14 Gordon Verster Road, Pretoria, and also runs a Johannesburg hub. It was founded in 2015 and is founder-led, with all work done in-house. It does not publish a headcount. Co-founder and CEO Cobus van der Westhuizen holds Google Ads certification. Co-founder and Creative Director Wynand van der Westhuizen leads design and Meta partnership work.
The agency covers design and branding, websites and digital marketing. Web work includes WordPress and ecommerce builds, web apps and AI-ready web design. Marketing covers social media, email and SMS, influencer work and PR. Paid media includes Google Ads, Google Display, Meta, LinkedIn, digital out-of-home and programmatic. On search, they offer SEO and content retainers, AI SEO across AEO and GEO, AI visibility audits and Google Business Profile setup aimed at Google Maps rankings.
Their SEO combines technical work, content strategy, white-hat link building and local SEO. Local work uses Google Business Profile and suburb landing pages, and meaningful traffic growth takes three to six months. Projects follow five phases: Listen in weeks one and two, Strategise in weeks two and three, Create in weeks three to six, then ongoing Measure and Optimise. Clients get monthly reports and a live dashboard, and the agency offers CRM integration.
Healthcare is one of the industries they serve, but no dental or medical client is named. Their work is mostly in automotive, entertainment, retail, music and hospitality. A Pretoria or wider Gauteng practice that wants one small team for its website, Google Ads and local SEO, with direct contact with the founders, matches their offer.
Named clients include Lazarus Motor Company, Jaguar Land Rover Centurion, SAFTAS, Steelworx and Musiekfabriek. A 2025 Pretoria dealership campaign brought 312 percent more qualified leads in four months and an average ROAS of 4.8x. A retail engagement achieved a 47 percent lower cost per acquisition. They have 64+ clients. They are rated 4.9 on Google from 214 reviews (May 2026). Testimonials from Steelworx, Lazarus Motor Company and Musiekfabriek mention responsiveness and lead growth.
Prices are published but differ between pages, all excluding VAT. One page gives an SEO and content retainer from R8,500 a month, Google Ads management from R7,500 and website design from R25,000 once off. Other pages give SEO from R5,500, Google Ads from R6,000 and websites from R12,000. Ad spend is billed separately. There are no lock-in contracts. A three-month onboarding period is followed by month-to-month terms, and a three-month minimum is recommended for Google Ads. Credentials include Google Partner, Meta Business Partner, TikTok certification, HubSpot and POPIA compliance.
