Search campaigns
Reach people actively comparing a service or looking for a solution. I organise keywords, ads, negatives and landing pages around distinct commercial needs.
INDEPENDENT GOOGLE ADS SPECIALIST
I help businesses turn Google Ads spend into a clearer plan for qualified enquiries and product sales. Work directly with me on search intent, campaign structure, landing pages and the evidence behind each budget decision.

GOOGLE ADS DECISION SYSTEM
I trace the account from the search or audience through to the outcome. A cheap click can be expensive if the visitor was never likely to buy.
Queries and audiences that fit your offer.
Budget, location and exclusions with a purpose.
An ad promise the landing page delivers.
A useful enquiry or sale, not just an event.
Evidence for what to stop, test or expand.

DIAGNOSIS BEFORE MORE SPEND
If the account has clicks but few customers, I start with the mismatch. More budget will not correct the wrong location setting, a vague offer or a conversion goal that rewards low-quality leads.
Review search terms, match behaviour, exclusions and brand versus new-customer demand.
Check message fit, mobile usability, form friction and the strength of the offer.
Reconcile tracked conversions with qualified leads, completed orders and sales feedback.
CAMPAIGNS WITH A DEFINED ROLE
I do not launch every campaign type by default. We choose the mix your offer, assets and measurement can support, then judge whether it earns its place.
Reach people actively comparing a service or looking for a solution. I organise keywords, ads, negatives and landing pages around distinct commercial needs.
Connect the right product range with accurate price, availability and destination data. Budget decisions should reflect margin and stock, not only reported revenue.
Use cross-channel delivery with an agreed goal, suitable creative and useful conversion data. I review its role alongside Search and existing customer demand.
Support discovery and consideration when creative and audience strategy justify the investment. I separate these expectations from high-intent Search reporting.
Need the product foundation as well? Google Shopping and Merchant Center management covers feeds, diagnostics and free listings alongside paid campaign planning.
GOOGLE AI + HUMAN ACCOUNTABILITY
I use AI to speed up analysis and explore ad variations. My job is still to check the business logic: what counts as success, which claims are accurate and how much room a test should have.
For work beyond campaign setup, explore AI advertising strategy and AI automation services for connected marketing workflows.
AI Max for Search adds targeting and creative features within Search. Performance Max is a separate cross-channel campaign type. I assess them separately rather than treating every AI feature as the same upgrade.
Connect with your wider AI search strategyMEASUREMENT + MARKET FIT
A local enquiry, a B2B opportunity and an ecommerce order need different targeting and conversion decisions.
Service radius, real availability, call quality and appointment outcomes guide the plan. I align paid activity with your Google Business Profile and landing pages.
Longer sales cycles need qualified-lead feedback and a clear handoff to sales. I assess the difference between a form submission and an opportunity worth pursuing.
I separate markets where language, currency, delivery or margins change the offer. Store optimisation and language-specific research support the campaign.
I check event definitions, duplicate tracking and available CRM feedback. Analytics consulting can cover a wider measurement repair. Enhanced conversions and data uploads are assessed against Google’s customer-data rules and your applicable privacy requirements.
DAAOMI FOR GOOGLE ADS
DAAOMI brings together Discover, Analyze, Audit, Optimize, Monitor and Improve. I use this framework to turn the account review into a prioritised plan, with checks that connect daily campaign work to the commercial objective.
Clarify your offer, margins, markets, sales cycle and what a valuable customer looks like.
Study search demand, existing results and the difference between reported conversions and useful outcomes.
Inspect account structure, tracking, location settings, search terms, ads and destination pages.
Implement the agreed priorities across targeting, ads, bidding, budget and conversion setup.
Review spending, delivery, search relevance and lead or order quality against the agreed milestones.
Keep what the evidence supports, stop weak tests and decide where the next investment belongs.
THREE WAYS TO WORK WITH ME
Start with diagnosis, put ongoing management in place, or bring me into your team’s decisions. I quote for the agreed work rather than using ad spend alone to define the scope.
PROJECT QUOTE
Find the issues and leave with a practical order of work.
MONTHLY SCOPE
A defined review rhythm with hands-on campaign improvements.
SESSION OR RETAINER
Independent input for the people already running the account.
Advertising spend is paid directly to Google. The proposal confirms campaign quantities, markets, meeting cadence and delivery responsibilities. Feed implementation, development, tracking repairs and creative production are included only where specified.
SEARCH EXPERIENCE YOU CAN EXPLORE
My published case studies show the business context, activity and outcomes of named engagements. I bring that wider search perspective to Google Ads without assuming a result from one business predicts another account.
Explore client workAd search terms can help reveal buyer language. Useful organic pages can inform landing-page improvements. Neither channel buys the other’s rankings; the benefit is better information for the next decision.

These are the questions I discuss with business owners and in-house teams before agreeing the work.
Ask About My AccountYes. I review the history, conversion actions, search terms and recent changes before recommending a handover plan. Useful campaigns and data stay in place. I agree what to keep, pause or test with you, so a change of consultant does not automatically mean starting again.
My proposal names the campaigns, markets and responsibilities. The agreed work can include keyword research, negative keywords, ads and assets, bidding and budget reviews, conversion checks, landing-page recommendations and reporting. Feed repairs, website development and video production are separately scoped when needed. You pay advertising spend directly to Google.
I separate the management fee from media spend. For the advertising budget, I assess likely click costs, your service area, sales cycle, margin and cost of acquiring a customer. We can narrow the first campaign to the strongest offer instead of dividing a limited budget across every service. I quote after understanding the account and the work it needs.
A recorded conversion is not necessarily a qualified enquiry. I check for duplicate events, low-value actions, irrelevant queries, misleading messages and location settings. Then I compare reporting with your sales feedback. Where the CRM and consent setup support it, importing qualified-lead or sale outcomes helps align optimisation with the business.
I choose against the offer, tracking quality, available assets and budget. Search gives us a focused starting point for active buying intent. Performance Max can broaden delivery across Google channels, but it needs useful conversion goals and an explicit role alongside existing campaigns. I check overlap and business outcomes before recommending expansion.
Yes. I can scope paid Shopping campaigns alongside feed and Merchant Center work. Product identifiers, variants, pricing, stock and destination pages need to agree. Free product listings are a separate opportunity, not a benefit you have to buy through Ads. My Google Shopping service covers the feed and listing side in detail.
I use AI to assist with search-term grouping, ad ideas and analysis, then review the output against your offer and policies. Smart Bidding, Performance Max and eligible AI Max features need accurate goals, suitable assets and monitoring. I agree test limits and review evidence before broader changes; confidential customer data and credentials do not belong in public AI prompts.
I can investigate the stated reason, review the website and account information, and help prepare corrections or an appeal where appropriate. I do not create replacement accounts to evade enforcement. Verification and reinstatement are Google decisions; requirements for regulated products also depend on the market you advertise in.
Your business keeps ownership. You grant appropriate user or manager access instead of sharing a password. Billing stays with you, and we agree approval limits for changes. At handover I document the work and outstanding priorities so your team can continue with access to its own history.
Yes. I review the conversion setup, duplicate tags, event definitions and the connection between Google Ads and GA4. Enhanced conversions and customer-data uploads must follow Google policies and applicable consent requirements. I coordinate with your website team and privacy adviser; hashed data or Consent Mode does not remove those responsibilities. See my analytics consulting for wider measurement work.
I agree review milestones around your sales cycle and conversion volume. Initial checks cover delivery, search relevance, tracking and obvious waste. Judging acquisition cost or return needs enough meaningful outcomes, not just several days of clicks. I explain what has changed, what we can infer and what still needs testing.
Yes. You can choose a focused account assessment, launch support or consulting for your team. We agree the deliverables, meetings and implementation responsibilities before work begins. For advice across several paid platforms, see my PPC consulting service.
