      There is no set cost to a Smart Campaign. Smart Campaign costs require the advertiser to have already had some spend/conversions in previous campaigns so starting with 20% of the budget of a current running campaign is a good place to start, then increasing in smaller increments as needed (probably 10-25% increase.) Depending on the niche of the product, you could budget as little as $5/day to an average of $1000/month or more.
