Google Ads
Google Ads management that turns clicks into customers
Get your business to the top of Google today, not in six months. I build, run and fine-tune your Google Ads so the right local customers find you first. You own the account, you control the budget, and there is no lock-in.
The fast lane to the top of Google
This is for local business owners who want more enquiries quickly and are ready to put a sensible monthly budget behind it. If you would rather build up cheaper, longer-lasting visibility over time, Local SEO is the slower, steadier route, and most growing businesses end up doing both.
SEO and your Google Business Profile are the long game. They are worth doing, but they take months to earn you the top spots. Google Ads skip the queue. The day your campaign goes live, you can be sitting right at the top of the results for the exact searches that turn into paying work in your area.
The catch is that Google Ads are just as good at burning money as making it. Left on autopilot, they will happily spend your budget on the wrong searches, the wrong towns, and people who were never going to call. Broad keywords, no tracking, no negative keywords, and Google's own "helpful" suggestions quietly eat the budget.
That is the whole job of management. I build the campaign around the jobs you actually want, cut out the searches that waste money, track which clicks turn into real enquiries, and keep tuning it month after month. You get the leads. You do not have to learn any of it.
What I do when I run your Google Ads
No set-and-forget. No mystery. Just a campaign built around your business and looked after by one person who tells you what is going on in plain English.
Built around your jobs
Keywords for the services you actually want more of, in the towns you actually serve. Negative keywords set up from day one to stop the wasted clicks other people leave running.
The right people, the right area
I target the areas you cover and filter out the searches that never turn into work. Your budget goes on people near you who are ready to buy, not tyre-kickers three counties away.
Conversion and call tracking
I set up tracking so we can see which clicks turn into real enquiries, calls, and form fills. Not just visits. That is what tells us where to put your money and where to stop.
Ongoing optimisation
The part most "set it up and vanish" people skip. I check what is converting, cut what is wasting money, and shift budget toward the searches that are actually bringing in work.
A page that converts
An ad only gets someone to your door. Where they land decides whether they call. If your site is not pulling its weight, I can point ads at a focused landing page and build it for you.
Plain-English reporting
A monthly summary of what you spent, what came in, and what I changed. No jargon, no 40-page PDF nobody reads. Just whether it is working and what happens next.
You own the account
Everything is set up under your own Google account, not mine. If you ever leave, your campaigns and history stay with you. No lock-in, no hostage situation.
No markup on your spend
You pay Google directly for the clicks. I do not mark up your ad spend or take a secret cut of it. My fee is my fee, and it is the same whether you spend £300 a month or £3,000.
Honest budget advice
If ads are not right for you, or your budget is too low to compete, I will tell you before you spend anything. A straight answer is worth more than a client who wastes money and blames me.
How it works
Three steps, and usually live within a few days. No jargon, nothing for you to learn.
We plan it together
What you want more of, the areas you cover, and what a new customer is actually worth to you. We agree a monthly budget you are comfortable with before a penny is spent.
I build and launch
Account, campaigns, keywords, negative keywords, tracking, and the page people land on. All set up properly under your own Google account. Usually live inside a few days.
I run and refine
The ongoing part. I watch what converts, trim the waste, push budget to what works, and report back plainly every month so you always know what your money is doing.
Ads are not always the right answer, and I will tell you
I would rather turn down a bad fit than take your money and watch it not work. Google Ads suit some businesses brilliantly and are wrong for others. Here is the honest version so you can decide.
Ads make sense when you need leads now. A quiet month, a new service you want to fill, a van sitting idle, a launch you want off the ground. Ads turn on demand almost instantly, which is something SEO simply cannot do.
They make less sense on a tiny budget in a crowded market. If the going rate for a click in your trade is high and your budget only buys a handful a day, the numbers may not stack up. I will run those numbers with you first, honestly, rather than after you have spent the money.
Often the smart move is a mix. Local Service Ads for pay-per-lead trades work, Google Ads for the searches LSAs do not cover, and Local SEO underneath it all so that over time you rely less on paying for every click. I will help you decide where your money works hardest.
And whatever we do, you pay Google directly for your ad spend, you own the account, and there is no contract tying you in. The service earns its place every month or you stop. Simple as that.
