What the price is really made of
In Gulshan, the fee isn't the expensive part. A wasted month of boosting is.
Ask for a Facebook marketing price in Gulshan and you'll get a number on Messenger in thirty seconds — "5,000 taka per month," "10,000 taka, sir." That speed is the warning. A real Gulshan campaign has three separate costs that those quick quotes quietly mash into one: my fee for the work, your ad budget that goes straight to Meta, and the landing page the ad points at. The cheap monthly number is almost always just someone tapping the blue Boost button on your behalf and keeping the difference.
For a Gulshan boutique or clinic with a genuinely good product, that's not a bargain — it's the most expensive thing you can buy, because every month it runs is a month your margin earns nothing.
I'm RH Fardin — a solo designer, developer and digital operator with around five years on Dhaka brands. I'll be blunt about the math that actually matters in Gulshan. If you sell a 12,000-taka dress, a 40,000-taka aesthetic package, or a lakh-plus interior consult, your average order is high enough that the management fee is the smallest figure in the whole equation. What moves your number up or down isn't my rate — it's how much ad budget you put behind it and whether the click lands somewhere that converts. So when I quote, I separate the parts on purpose, instead of selling you a tidy all-in figure that hides where your money really goes.
Here's why I price the build separately and openly: I came up building websites and stores, not buying media in a vacuum. My setup and landing-page work starts at 50,000 BDT, with tiers at 50,000 / 90,000 / 1,50,000 BDT, and fully custom builds from 3,00,000 BDT — terms are 50% advance, 50% on launch, by bKash, Nagad or bank transfer. That fee covers the campaign architecture, the creative direction, the pixel and event setup, and the page the ad actually points to.
Your ad spend is a different bucket entirely. It's your money, it goes directly to Meta, and it never routes through my account — because the second a 'manager' runs your budget through their own bKash, the boosting markup creeps in.
So this page is the breakdown I give every Gulshan owner before they commit a taka: what my fee buys, how to size your ad budget against a high-margin Gulshan product, and where I'll tell you honestly that spending more won't help yet. If your landing page is slow or your offer is muddy, throwing a 1,00,000-taka monthly budget at it just loses Gulshan's impatient, mobile-first buyers faster. Fix the destination, size the spend to your margin, and the fee stops being the thing you worry about.
