I am a UK-Based Google Ads specialist, and I think I have the skills and experience to deliver on all the points mentioned in your job listing. My focus is always on improving results and I have a strong track record in delivering a high level of performance on a wide range of accounts in different sectors. I run every new account through my 5-Step Ads Diagnostic: 1. Conversion Tracking Review. First, I check that the data is accurate as you cannot make good decisions with bad numbers. 2. Funnel Review. If the funnel has weak points, highlight and offer options to fix / improve. 3. Creative Review. Bad ad copy / ad assets and weak landing pages lead to bad results. I will review what you are running and suggest changes if needed. 4. Campaign Setup. Not every campaign type works for every offer. I pick the structure / campaign types that fit your business and ROAS targets. 5. Ongoing Optimization. Regular adjustments. Cutting what does not convert. Feeding what does. Spending your budget in the most efficient way possible. Here are some results from clients I have worked with: Online electrical wholesaler: revenue up 15% in month one, up 115% by end of year one. Car insurance broker: sales increased 68%, cost per sale down 38%. Legal claim offer: able to scale up monthly ad spend from $4k to over six-figures within 4 months, while keeping the cost per lead below the target price. Thanks for your consideration.
