Senior-Led Google Ads Management — Not a Junior Running Your Budget

Most PPC agencies hand your account to a graduate once the contract is signed. That’s not how I work.

I’m Stevie Morris, a freelance Google Ads consultant based remotely and working with businesses across Northumberland and the wider north of England. With 12 years managing Google Ads directly, I handle every keyword, every bid, every ad — personally. Your budget is never delegated.

Through my sister agency Growth PPC, I’ve managed over £20M in ad spend and recorded a peak ROAS of 20.8x. That experience feeds directly into how I manage client accounts today.

What's Included in Ongoing PPC Management

The Honest Version

If your campaigns are already running well, I’ll tell you. I’m not going to invent problems to justify a management fee. If there’s genuine waste or missed opportunity, I’ll show you exactly where it is and what I’d do differently.

Specialists in Ecommerce and Home Services

I focus on two niches: ecommerce and D2C brands, and home services or trades businesses. Both are intensely competitive on Google Ads, and both require very different campaign structures.

For ecommerce clients in Northumberland and nearby — whether you’re shipping nationally or targeting County Durham, Cumbria, and beyond — Shopping campaigns, Performance Max, and a clean product feed strategy tend to move the needle fastest. For home services, local search intent and call tracking matter most. I know the difference and build accordingly.

How We Get Started

  1. Strategy callWe talk through your business, current performance, and what good looks like. No hard sell.
  2. Account auditI review your existing campaigns or competitor landscape so the build starts with real data.
  3. Campaign build or takeoverI restructure or launch campaigns with the strategy we’ve agreed. You keep full ownership of your account.
  4. Ongoing managementMonthly optimisation, reporting, and regular communication. You always know what’s happening and why.

Transparent Pricing — No Surprises

Management starts from £300/month, which covers up to £3,000/month in ad spend. Above that threshold, the fee is 10% of your ad spend — so at £4,500/month spend, management is £450/month. You pay Google directly; there’s no markup on ad spend.

This model means my fee scales with your investment rather than front-loading costs before you’ve seen any results. Call me on 07410 907 104 to talk through what makes sense for your budget.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with businesses based in Northumberland specifically?

Yes. I work remotely with clients across the UK, including businesses throughout Northumberland — from the market towns along the A1 corridor to coastal and rural businesses in the county. Geography doesn’t limit what I can do for you.

What's the minimum budget you'll work with?

The management fee starts from £300/month. Ad spend is separate and paid directly to Google. The right ad spend depends on your market — we’d discuss that on a call.

Will I always deal with you, or does work get passed to someone else?

Always me. I don’t use junior staff or subcontractors. The person you speak to on the strategy call is the person managing your campaigns.

Do you manage Microsoft Ads as well as Google?

Yes — I’m certified in both. For most clients, Google Ads is the priority, but Microsoft can be worth running alongside depending on your sector and audience.

What industries do you work with in the north of England?

My main niches are ecommerce and home services. Within those, I’ve worked with clients across County Durham, Cumbria, North Yorkshire, and beyond. If your business fits those categories, we’re probably a good fit.
