Google Ads Management That Actually Works

Why Google Ads Matter (Even If You Hate Paying Google)

Here’s the reality: having a beautiful website is great, but it’s like having a stunning storefront in a back alley. If no one can find you, what’s the point? While I’m a huge fan of SEO (and I build all my websites with it in mind), the truth is that getting to the top of Google’s organic search results takes months, sometimes years.

Google Ads is like having a fast pass to the front of the line. Yes, you have to pay for it – and yes, it can feel frustrating that Google has created this “pay-to-play” system. But here’s why it works: when someone is actively searching for your services, they’re ready to buy. Google Ads puts you right in front of them at exactly that moment.

Think about it: your ideal customer is out there right now, typing exactly what you offer into Google. The question is, will they find you or your competitor?

Let’s Talk About Pricing First

I charge a flat $1,400 per month. Unlike many agencies that charge extra fees based on how much you spend on ads, my fee stays the same whether you spend $2,000 or $20,000 on ads. No hidden fees. No long-term contracts. Just straightforward pricing for expert management of your Google Ads campaigns. You can cancel anytime – though my clients typically stick around because the results speak for themselves.

What You Get When We Work Together

When you trust me with your Google Ads, you’re getting:

Direct access to me (not a junior account manager or chatbot)
Strategic campaign planning and optimization
Advanced keyword research and implementation
Regular A/B testing of your ads
Competitor analysis and monitoring
Monthly performance reports in plain English
Full access to your account data – always
“After wasting money on DIY Google Ads, we found Megan. As a bike shop in St. Pete, we needed someone who understood local business. Within a month, our repair shop was consistently booked and new customers were finding us through Google. Her flat monthly fee and transparent reporting showed us exactly what we were getting for our money. Best marketing decision we’ve made for our shop.”

My Approach is Different

I believe in treating your ad budget like it’s my own money. That means:

  • No wasteful spending on irrelevant keywords
  • Regular optimization to improve performance
  • Clear, honest communication about what's working (and what isn't)
  • Strategic recommendations based on real data
  • Quick responses when you need support

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes you different from other Google Ads managers?

Three things: transparency, experience, and results. I charge a flat fee instead of a percentage of your ad spend, provide direct access to me (not a junior account manager), and focus on generating actual leads, not just clicks. Plus, with over 16 years of digital marketing experience, I understand how Google Ads fits into your overall business strategy.

How long before I see results?

The general rule of thumb for Google Ads is 6-8 months to see substantial, sustainable results as we continuously optimize and refine the campaigns. However, you’ll start seeing immediate increases in website traffic and conversions within the first month. I provide regular updates so you can watch these improvements unfold, and we’ll make data-driven adjustments as we learn what works best for your specific market. Think of it like a snowball effect – we start seeing movement right away, but the real momentum builds over time as we fine-tune everything.

Do you guarantee results with Google Ads?

No – and here’s why: anyone who guarantees specific results with Google Ads is someone you should run away from. While I can guarantee that I’ll treat your ad budget like it’s my own money, work every possible angle, and continuously optimize your campaigns, no ethical marketer can promise specific outcomes. Digital advertising is dynamic and depends on many factors including competition, market changes, and consumer behavior. What I do guarantee is transparency, dedication to maximizing your ROI, and that I’ll never stop pushing to improve your campaign performance.

Do I need to sign a long-term contract?

No. I don’t believe in locking clients into contracts. You can cancel anytime. Almost all clients stay because they’re seeing positive returns on their investment, not because they’re bound by paperwork.

How much should I budget for Google Ads?

While my management fee is a flat $1,400/month, your actual ad spend will depend on your industry and goals. Most of my clients invest between $1,000-$8,000 monthly in ad spend. During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss what budget makes sense for your specific business and expected returns.

What if I don't have a physical storefront - I just offer services?

Totally fine! Google Ads actually works exceptionally well for service-based businesses. We can target people actively searching for your services and capture them at the exact moment they need you. Whether you’re a consultant, lawyer, or service provider, we’ll focus on converting searches into consultations or bookings.

How involved do I need to be in the process?

After our initial strategy session and campaign setup, I handle the day-to-day management. We can have monthly check-ins to discuss performance and strategy, but my job is to save you time, not create more work for you.
