Google Ads Management — Expert Campaigns, Flat Monthly Fee

We manage 24 Google Ads accounts with a 3-person specialist team. Budgets are verified every 30 minutes. Conversion tracking is validated end-to-end from click to form submission. And we charge a flat monthly fee because percentage-of-spend pricing creates a conflict of interest we refuse to have.

What Our Google Ads Management Covers

We handle everything from campaign architecture through ongoing optimization. You maintain full ownership of your ad account. An automotive service business in Edmonton came to us spending $4,000/month with no conversion tracking. Within 90 days we had validated tracking, restructured campaigns, and brought their cost per enquiry to $3.63 with 825% ROAS. That's not unusual. It's what happens when specialists manage accounts instead of coordinators.

The difference between our management and what most agencies provide comes down to monitoring cadence. We verify budgets every 30 minutes across all 24 accounts. We validate conversion tracking end-to-end from GTM through GA4 to Google Ads. When a tag fires incorrectly or a landing page goes down, we catch it in minutes, not at the end of the month when you're reviewing a PDF report.

Campaign Strategy & Setup

Before spending a dollar, we build the right foundation. A dental implant practice we took over had 6 campaigns with overlapping keywords cannibalizing each other's Quality Scores. Restructuring before optimizing saved them 30% of their monthly spend immediately.

  • Keyword research and negative keyword strategy
  • Campaign and ad group architecture designed to prevent keyword cannibalization
  • Search, Shopping, and Performance Max setup
  • Conversion tracking via GA4 and Google Tag Manager, validated end-to-end
  • Audience segmentation and remarketing lists via GA4 audiences
  • Competitor ad analysis and positioning strategy

Ongoing Optimization

A campaign set up and left alone bleeds money. Google's auto-applied recommendations can re-enable paused campaigns, change bid strategies, and expand match types without your knowledge. We disable auto-apply and manage every change deliberately.

  • Bid strategy adjustments based on conversion data, not Google's suggestions
  • Search term report review and negative keyword expansion (weekly)
  • Ad copy A/B testing with statistical significance thresholds
  • Landing page performance analysis and recommendations
  • Budget pacing verified every 30 minutes with automated over-spend alerts
  • Impression share monitoring against identified competitors

Conversion Tracking & Attribution

Broken conversion tracking is the most expensive problem in Google Ads, and it breaks more often than you'd think. A website update, a form plugin change, a GTM container published without testing. We validate the full pipeline: website form to GTM tag to GA4 event to Google Ads conversion action. When it breaks, we know within the hour.

  • Phone call tracking per campaign with call recording (where legal)
  • Form submission tracking with server-side validation
  • E-commerce purchase and revenue tracking
  • Full attribution pipeline testing: click to form to CRM
  • Offline conversion import for businesses with sales cycles

Reporting

Monthly reports show cost per lead, conversion rate by campaign, impression share versus competitors, wasted spend analysis, and recommended next actions. The data comes from the same centralized database our team uses. You see what we see. When we pair paid search with web optimization, both channels report into the same system so you can see total cost of acquisition across paid and organic.

Campaign Types We Manage

We recommend the campaign types that match your goals, not the ones that are easiest to manage. Most accounts use a combination.

Google Search

High-intent buyers actively searching for your service. Search campaigns remain the highest-converting ad type for service businesses. We build tight ad group structures with single-theme keyword groups, not the broad-match-everything approach that wastes budget on irrelevant traffic.

Google Shopping

Product listing ads for e-commerce. Feed optimization, Merchant Center management, and bid strategy tuned to ROAS targets. We segment by product margin so high-value items get aggressive bids while low-margin products stay profitable.

Performance Max

Cross-channel AI campaigns managed with proper asset organization and audience signals. PMax works when you feed it good data and constraints. We add negative keywords, layer audience signals, and monitor asset group performance to prevent Google from spending your budget on low-quality placements.

Google Ads FAQ

What's the minimum ad spend to work with you?

We work with clients spending as little as CAD $1,500/month on ads. Below that, the data volume is too low for meaningful optimization. For context, most of our healthcare clients spend $3,000-$8,000/month, and trades businesses typically start at $2,000-$4,000. We will tell you honestly if paid search isn't the right channel for your budget right now, and point you toward web optimization or local search optimization instead.

Do I own my Google Ads account?

Yes, always. We work inside your account under our MCC (manager account) or create a new one in your name. You have full admin access at all times. If you leave, the account, its history, its conversion data, and its audience lists all go with you. We have seen agencies hold accounts hostage. We do the opposite.

How do you handle conversion tracking?

This is where most Google Ads management fails. We build and validate the full tracking pipeline: GTM container to GA4 event to Google Ads conversion action. We test it end-to-end before launching campaigns. Then we monitor it continuously because tracking breaks more often than people realize. A plugin update, a form change, a tag manager publish can silently break the data Google uses to optimize your bids.

Why flat fees instead of percentage of spend?

Percentage-of-spend pricing means your agency earns more when you spend more, not when you convert more. If reducing your budget from $10K to $7K would improve your ROI, a percentage-fee agency just took a pay cut to help you. We charge a flat monthly fee so our recommendation is always what's best for your business. Read our full take on why flat fees align incentives.
