How quickly can I see results from Google Ads?

Search ads start delivering traffic within 24 hours of launch. Some clients book their first job inside week one. Meaningful conversion data takes 2-4 weeks to gather. We typically hit a stable cost-per-lead by month 2 and have you scaling profitably from month 3 onwards. Unlike SEO, you don't have to wait 6 months to see if it works.

Do you charge a percentage of my ad spend?

No. Ever. The management fee is £199/month for up to £5k of monthly ad spend, £299/month up to £15k, and £499/month above that. Your ad spend goes directly to Google on your card. We never touch it, never mark it up.

What's the minimum ad budget?

We recommend at least £500/month spend for Search to gather meaningful data. Below that, statistical significance is too slow. For PMax we recommend £1,000/month minimum. We'll be honest if your budget is too small to work.

Is there a long contract?

No. It is monthly: cancel any time and the service stops at the end of the current billing period, with no exit fee. We earn retention by getting you results, not by locking you in.

Will you make me sign over my Google Ads account?

No, never. You always own your account 100% and your card is the one charged by Google. We work inside your account as a linked Manager (MCC). If you ever leave, you keep all the historical data, ad copy, conversion setup, audiences. Everything. This is the opposite of agencies that run ads on "their" account and leave you with nothing if you cancel.

Can you fix my existing Google Ads account?

Yes, that's literally the first thing we do. Free audit identifies the wins (broken conversion tracking, wasted spend, missing negatives, poor ad copy) and we restructure from there.

Do you build landing pages too?

Conversion rate is half the equation. We give detailed input on your landing pages and recommend changes. If you need them built, our Custom WordPress Website (£499) or single landing page builds are available separately.

What if I've been burned by a Google Ads agency before?

Many businesses have. The free audit will show you exactly what was wrong: broken tracking, account churn, spend on irrelevant keywords. No obligation, just honest information you can use even if you don't hire us.

Real conversion tracking, not "estimated conversions"

Why Google Ads

Buyer-intent traffic on day one.

SEO is the long game. Google Ads is the immediate game: campaigns can be live and converting within a week. When someone types "emergency plumber" you want to be the first thing they see, not the seventh.

01 Ready to buy

High-Intent Buyers

Search ads target people typing what you sell with the intent to buy. UK Google handles 90%+ of search traffic. Capture the buyers right at the moment of intent, no persuasion needed.

02 Direct to Google

Zero Spend Markup

Your ad budget goes 100% to Google. We bill our management fee separately. No hidden 15% margin on every click. You see exactly what Google charged.

03 Real numbers

Conversion Reporting

We set up real conversion tracking: phone calls, form fills, sales. Reports show cost per actual conversion, not vanity click metrics.

Campaign Types

Compare

DIY vs freelancer vs agency.

Why most "budget" Google Ads management costs you more than ours when you do the maths on wasted spend. Typical UK agency markup of 15% on a £3,000/month budget is £450/month, more than double our management fee.
