Most Sandbach businesses are leaving money on the table without knowing it

Tracking is half-broken. Bid strategies are on autopilot. Negative keywords haven’t been touched in 18 months. Competitor names are buying your budget. These aren’t rare — they’re normal. An audit finds the exact leaks in your account.

What a PPC audit actually finds

I run a structured diagnostic across setup, targeting, bidding, creatives, and tracking. We quantify the waste — ‘this broad-match setting is probably bleeding £400/month’ — and prioritise fixes by impact. The output is one written report, not a sales pitch. If your account’s fine, we’ll say so.

Our audit covers

How the audit process works

  1. You grant access (day 1)Share read-only Google Ads account access. We sign an NDA. Data stays confidential.
  2. Deep-dive review (days 2–10)We pull historical data, test tracking, classify search terms, spot patterns. No account changes — just observation.
  3. Written findings (week 2)One comprehensive report with findings, impact estimates, and a prioritised fix roadmap. You own the choices.

Why audits work for Sandbach businesses

You’ve got a real business — ecommerce, home services, local trades. An audit gives you proof of what’s costing money and what isn’t. No guessing. No ‘trust me.’ Just data. If you hire us to fix it, great. If you don’t, at least you know what to prioritise.

Pricing: quote-on-call

Audits are fixed-scope projects, not retainers. I quote based on account size and complexity — a small account might be £600, a larger one £1,500+. You get an upfront number before we start. No hidden fees.

Frequently asked questions

What if the audit reveals huge problems?

We’ll explain them clearly and give you a roadmap to fix them. If you want us to rebuild the account, I can quote management services. If not, you’ve still got the findings and can implement them yourself or give to another agency.

Can you do an audit on a competitor's account?

No. We only audit accounts we have permission to access. We respect everyone’s data. If you want an audit of your own account, we’re your people.

How does the audit differ from a full management contract?

Audit = one-time snapshot and report. Management = we own the account, make changes, optimise monthly. Different animals. Audits are for ‘what’s wrong?’ Management is for ‘fix it and keep it sharp.’

Can you share the audit findings with our other agency?

Yes. The report is yours. Share it, use it, hire someone else to fix it — no problem. We don’t gatekeep our findings.

Is an audit worth it if our account is only 6 months old?

Possibly. Young accounts can have structural issues from day one — wrong bid strategies, bad keyword match types, tracking gaps. If you’re curious or concerned, an audit finds those early. If it’s running well, you might not need one yet.

How detailed is the report?

Thorough. We give you specific findings (e.g. ‘27% of your search volume is brand-defensive wasted spend’), quantify impact, and list fixes in priority order. Not a 50-page novel — but not a one-pager either. Actionable detail.
