Google Ads is a portfolio of campaign types, inventory, bidding and measurement tools — not one interchangeable channel.
We assign each campaign a defined role, use verified conversion data and make changes against an agreed baseline.

A joined-up service covering planning, implementation, creative direction, landing-page review, measurement and ongoing decisions.

Four Foundations

Four Foundations of Account Performance

Campaign type alone cannot repair weak measurement, unclear structure, unsuitable creative or a poor post-click experience.

1. Goals and Measurement

Tell bidding which outcomes matter

  • Primary actions used for optimisation
  • Secondary actions retained for observation
  • Values and qualified outcomes used where appropriate

2. Structure and Control

Separate decisions that need separate evidence

  • Brand vs Non-Brand
  • Prospecting versus remarketing where useful
  • Experiments isolated from core activity

3. Creative and Message

Make each placement communicate clearly

  • Search: Match the query and offer
  • Video: Establish value early
  • Remarketing: Address the next decision

4. Landing-Page Experience

Continue the promise made by the ad

  • Proposition, evidence, FAQs and a focused action
  • Mobile speed, accessibility and usability
  • Forms and contact paths proportionate to intent

Six Common Account Risks

  • •Judging performance by clicks or CPC without agreeing a business outcome
  • •Using low-value actions as primary bidding conversions
  • •Launching automated campaigns before goals, feeds and assets are ready
  • •Combining brand and non-brand demand so reporting becomes difficult to interpret
  • •Mixing prospecting and remarketing when separate decisions are needed
  • •Sending ads to a slow, unclear or mismatched landing page

Account Structure

Structure the Account Around Decisions

A useful account structure separates objectives and reporting needs without creating more campaigns than the available data can support.

Common Structural Problems

  • •One campaign asked to optimise for traffic, enquiries and sales at the same time
  • •Prospecting and remarketing combined when separate control is required
  • •Unrelated products, markets or messages grouped without a decision framework
  • •Low-value actions included as primary conversion goals

Conversion Measurement

Give Bidding Reliable Conversion Goals

Define the business outcomes first, decide which actions should guide bidding, and validate the implementation before using automated strategies or judging performance.

Measurement Checks

  • Primary Conversion Actions

    Actions used for bidding when the relevant goal is selected

  • Secondary Conversion Actions

    Observation metrics that do not direct budget towards that action

  • Deeper Business Outcomes

    Qualified or converted leads and sales values returned where lawful and technically suitable

FAQ

Google Ads FAQ

Clear answers to common questions about budgets, campaign types, measurement, lead quality and timing.

What budget do I need for Google Ads?
There is no universal minimum that makes a campaign worthwhile. We estimate a test budget from relevant demand, likely click costs, conversion rate, sales value and the amount of data needed to make a decision. Google uses average daily budgets, and most campaigns can spend up to twice that amount on an individual day while remaining subject to the monthly spending limit.
Can I run Performance Max on its own?
Sometimes, but not by default. Performance Max is goal based and is designed to complement keyword-based Search campaigns. The right structure depends on your objectives, conversion data, assets, feeds and need for channel control. Audience signals guide Google's AI; they are not hard targeting restrictions.
Why does my account generate conversions but few sales?
The campaign may be optimising towards a low-value action, the form may attract poor-fit leads, the landing page may not match the ad, or offline outcomes may not be returned to Google Ads. We audit primary and secondary actions, traffic sources, search terms, lead qualification and the post-click journey before changing bids or budgets.
How are Demand Gen and Display different now?
Demand Gen supports visual campaigns across YouTube, Discover, Gmail, Maps and the Google Display Network, with channel controls available in eligible accounts. Google began moving Display campaigns into Demand Gen in 2026, so the exact creation and migration options depend on your account. We confirm the current setup before recommending a format.

Want an Evidence-Based View of Your Current Account?

Request an Account Assessment
Can YouTube advertising drive conversions?
It can support conversion goals when the offer, audience, creative, landing page and measurement setup work together. Results vary by product, buying cycle and attribution window. We define the role of video in the journey and evaluate it with the relevant conversion and assisted-outcome data rather than assuming every view should convert directly.
Should an e-commerce account start with Shopping or Performance Max?
There is no fixed sequence for every retailer. A reliable Merchant Center feed, accurate conversion values and clear product priorities are essential whichever campaign type is used. We choose the structure according to control requirements, available creative, historical data and the need for incremental reach beyond Search or Shopping.
How do you handle invalid clicks and poor-quality traffic?
Google automatically filters clicks it identifies as invalid. We monitor the invalid-clicks column and can request an investigation when the pattern warrants it. Search terms, negative keywords, locations and audience settings are used to improve relevance; they should not be presented as Google's invalid-click protection. Form spam and low-quality leads require separate diagnosis.
How do you measure lead quality?
We agree what qualifies a lead, such as service fit, location, value or sales stage, then connect campaign data with CRM outcomes where lawful and practical. For eligible setups, qualified or converted leads can be returned through enhanced conversions for leads so reporting and bidding can use deeper business outcomes, subject to consent and data requirements.

Unsure How Search, Performance Max, Demand Gen and Video Should Work Together?

Share your objective and current setup. We will explain the role, dependency and measurement needs of each recommended campaign type.

Request a Campaign-Mix Review
Is conversion tracking essential?
It is essential when the objective is to measure or optimise towards enquiries, sales or other business actions. Primary conversion actions are used for bidding when the selected goal is active; secondary actions are observed without directing budget. We validate tags, values, deduplication, consent and goal settings before relying on the data.
How long does Google Ads take to show results?
Clicks and early conversions may appear quickly, but there is no fixed performance timetable. Google says an automated bid strategy can take up to three weeks or one to two conversion cycles to calibrate after a material change. We judge the account only after considering conversion delay, data volume, seasonality and sales quality.
Can Google Ads and SEO run together?
Yes. They are separate acquisition channels but can share useful query, audience and landing-page insights. Ads can test offers and reach paid inventory while SEO develops organic visibility. Advertising does not improve organic ranking, so we report paid and organic outcomes separately.
How does a Google Ads engagement begin?
Share your goals, priority products or services, website and any existing account information. We review tracking, campaign structure, search demand, creative and the landing-page journey, then recommend the scope, initial tests and reporting framework before launch.
