Sound familiar?

These are the problems most PPC accounts arrive with.

Set-and-forget campaigns.

Your last optimization was three quarters ago and the auction has moved on.

Vanity metrics in the dashboard.

Clicks and impressions are up — but revenue isn't.

No conversion tracking worth trusting.

Every platform is reporting different numbers, none of them tied to closed-won deals.

Budget bleeding to junk traffic.

Negative keyword lists haven't been touched, search terms aren't reviewed, brand cannibalization is rampant.

PMax black box.

You're spending real money inside a campaign type you can't see into.

No connection to CRM.

Bidding is happening on lead volume instead of lead quality, and sales is quietly drowning.

How we turn paid search into pipeline

A 4-stage approach we run on every account, regardless of platform mix.

1

Audit & Attribution

We dig through historical spend, set up server-side conversion tracking, and tie ad data to CRM stages.

2

Account Restructure

Campaigns get rebuilt around intent buckets, not arbitrary keyword themes. Bad spend stops on day one.

3

Test & Iterate

Weekly experiments on ad copy, landing pages, audiences, and bid strategies. Wins are scaled, losers are killed.

4

Scale & Defend

Winning campaigns get more budget, brand defense gets locked down, competitor moves get tracked.

Plays from our PPC playbook

Named, repeatable techniques we’ve shipped across hundreds of accounts.

The Single Product Ad Group

When to use it

When CPAs are inconsistent across a wide product catalog. We split ad groups down to one product, one intent, one landing page — Quality Scores climb and CPAs drop.

The Iceberg Search Terms Audit

When to use it

When you suspect budget waste. We surface the 90% of search terms hiding under the visible 10%, then exclude what's not converting.

The Brand Moat

When to use it

When competitors are bidding on your brand. We lock down brand SERPs with ad copy that increases CTR and decreases competitor click steal.

The Pipeline Pivot

When to use it

When sales is unhappy with lead quality. We re-bid against MQL→SQL→Closed-Won values pulled from CRM instead of front-of-funnel form fills.

Customer video references

Tools we run inside every engagement

Best-in-class tech, integrated and reporting cleanly from day one.
