What you actually get with a PPC agency vs what I offer

Most PPC agencies in Nottinghamshire hand your account to a junior who’s two months into the job and rotating through a dozen clients at once. You get a slick onboarding call, then radio silence until the monthly report lands — full of vanity metrics that don’t explain why your cost-per-lead went up.

I’m Stevie Morris. I’m a freelance Google Ads consultant who has managed over £2M in ad spend directly — not through a team, not delegated. I also work with Growth PPC, a performance agency that has managed over £20M at scale and achieved a peak ROAS of 20.8x. That depth of experience informs everything I do for smaller, local accounts across Nottinghamshire.

What's included in ongoing management

The honest version of what I do

If your Google Ads account is genuinely performing well, I’ll tell you that on our first call and we won’t work together. I’m not interested in taking a management fee on an account that doesn’t need me. If there’s real work to do — wasted spend, poor structure, broken tracking, weak copy — that’s where I earn my fee.

How the pricing works

My management fee starts at £300/month, which covers ad spend up to £3,000/month. Above that threshold, the fee moves to 10% of your ad spend — so at £4,500/month spend, you’d pay £450/month in management fees. Your ad spend goes directly to Google. I don’t mark it up, I don’t hold it, and there’s no hidden margin built into the model.

This model keeps my incentives aligned with yours. I only benefit when you spend more because you’re getting results, not because I’ve inflated a media bill.

Niches I work best in

  1. Free strategy callWe talk through your current setup, your goals, and whether Google Ads is actually the right channel for your Nottinghamshire business right now.
  2. Account reviewIf there’s existing history, I look at what’s working, what’s wasted, and what the account structure tells me about past decisions.

  4. Managed campaignsI take over the account and manage it directly. You stay informed without needing to log in every day.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with businesses anywhere in Nottinghamshire?

Yes — I work UK-wide remotely. Whether you’re based in Nottingham city, Newark, Mansfield, Worksop, or the surrounding villages, geography doesn’t affect what I can do for your campaigns.

What's the minimum budget you work with?

My management fee starts from £300/month, which is designed for accounts spending up to £3,000/month on ads. If you’re spending less than that, it’s worth a conversation to see if the numbers make sense for your business.

Why not just use a local Nottinghamshire PPC agency?

A local agency might feel more familiar, but proximity doesn’t improve campaign performance. What matters is who’s actually in your account — and whether they have the experience to make the right calls. I manage accounts directly with 12 years of Google Ads experience and no juniors involved.

Do you work with clients in nearby counties like Derbyshire or Lincolnshire?

Yes. I serve businesses across the East Midlands and wider England. My work with clients in Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire and beyond operates on exactly the same model.

How do I know this will actually generate results?

You don’t, and anyone who guarantees specific results before seeing your account is either misleading you or doesn’t understand the platform. What I can tell you is that I’ve managed over £2M in ad spend directly, and I’ll tell you honestly on our first call whether I think Google Ads can work for your business.
