PPC management companies?

I’m looking into getting a pay per click management company to manage my Adwords account. My question is, what is the normal monthly management fee that I should expect to pay? I currently have 280 or so keywords spread across several campaigns.
Thanks.

There are a couple of pricing models out there but your question can’t be answered accurately without more details e.g. what niche are you competing in? are your landing pages optimized for a great quality score?
The most popular pricing model is the "percentage of ad spend" and most charge 15% + setup fees.
I would try to stay away from super cheap offers like "flat fee $99/mo" as you’ll most likely not get great results.
I know that http://www.trivalley.com in California charges 20% but they are doing something right as they have some high end clients.
Happy hunting!

    10% is fair but smaller accounts may pay up to 30%

    If your budget is $5000 and it’s a semi-competitive market expect to pay around
    $1000 = 20%
