I plan, build and manage paid search campaigns around useful enquiries, sales and cost per result, not simply traffic. You deal directly with me, from campaign strategy and tracking through to ongoing optimisation.
Poor performance often comes from weak targeting, bad conversion signals, loose account structure or a landing page that cannot turn paid traffic into business.
Broad targeting, weak negative keyword control and poor search term review can send spend towards people who were never likely to become customers.
Local service businesses need campaign geography to reflect where they genuinely work and where the profitable demand actually comes from.
Automated bidding can only make sensible decisions when the conversion actions being fed back into the account represent something genuinely valuable.
Even well-targeted ads struggle when the page is slow, unclear, difficult to use on mobile or fails to explain why somebody should choose the business.
A successful PPC account is not the one generating the most clicks. It is the one buying the right attention at a cost the business can justify.
Strategy, tracking, targeting and optimisation stay connected. I do not treat PPC management as a monthly bid-change exercise.
I review the business model, margins, locations, current campaigns, search terms, conversion setup and landing pages before deciding what should be changed. Existing accounts can be improved rather than automatically rebuilt.
Search campaigns are structured around customer intent, commercially useful queries and sensible geographic targeting. I regularly review search terms, match types and negative keywords rather than leaving the account to run unattended.
Performance Max and Shopping can be useful when the account has the right commercial objective, product data and measurement. I use them where they fit the business rather than because Google recommends adding another campaign type.
I configure and review conversion actions so campaigns optimise towards the behaviour that matters. That can include forms, phone calls, purchases and other meaningful actions, using Google Ads, GA4 and Google Tag Manager where appropriate.
I write and test ad messaging that reflects what people searched for and what the landing page can genuinely deliver. Sitelinks, callouts, phone assets and other relevant assets are used to make the advert more useful, not merely larger.
I monitor budgets, search terms, conversion quality, bidding, locations, devices and campaign performance. Reporting focuses on what changed, what the advertising produced and what I intend to improve next.
Modern Google Ads uses automated bidding and machine learning extensively. That makes good measurement and good account decisions more important, not less.
Automated bidding can process auction signals at a scale no person can replicate manually. My role is to make sure the campaign objectives, conversion signals, budgets and account structure give that automation something sensible to optimise.
If every button click is treated as a valuable lead, automated bidding can optimise towards the wrong behaviour very efficiently.
Cost per lead, conversion value and return on spend should reflect what the business can actually afford to acquire a customer.
Google can optimise an auction. It cannot decide whether a poor lead, weak offer or bad landing page makes commercial sense for your business.
The account setup changes depending on the business. The decision process remains straightforward.
Services, margins, locations, customer value, existing leads and what a worthwhile conversion looks like.
Existing campaigns, search demand, competition, tracking and landing pages are reviewed before money moves.
Campaigns, targeting, ads, negatives, budgets and conversion actions are configured around the agreed objective.
Real search and conversion data is used to improve targeting, bidding, messaging and budget allocation.
You see what was spent, what it generated, what changed and what I am working on next.
I can work beyond the campaigns when the website, landing page or wider search strategy is limiting paid performance.
If the page is the weak point, I can change the structure, mobile UX, forms and messaging rather than simply reporting that conversion rate is poor.

I am based in Leigh-on-Sea and work with businesses across Southend, Rayleigh, Benfleet, Basildon, Billericay, Brentwood, Chelmsford, Colchester and the wider county.
Google Ads management is handled remotely, giving you direct access to me regardless of where your business is based.
I also manage campaigns for businesses outside the UK and organisations advertising into UK or Greek-speaking markets.
No sales handover, no junior learning on your account and no hidden PPC team behind the relationship.
You speak directly to me about strategy, performance and changes.
Your campaigns are not handed to another PPC manager after the initial sales conversation.
Paid search is part of my day-to-day digital marketing work, not an occasional add-on service.
I can work on tracking and landing pages when the issue sits outside Google Ads.
I focus on spend, conversions, cost per result and return rather than presenting impressions as business success.
Ongoing management is flexible with one month's notice.
If you already have campaigns, I can review what is happening before recommending more spend. If you are starting from scratch, I will tell you whether PPC looks commercially sensible before you commit.
