When You Need a Consultant, Not an Agency

Not every business needs full account management. Some already have an in-house team or a freelancer handling the day-to-day. What they’re missing is someone senior enough to challenge the strategy, spot the structural problems, and give a straight answer.

That’s where I come in. I’m Stevie Morris — 12 years in Google Ads, over £2M in ad spend managed directly, Google Partner and Microsoft Ads certified. I work with businesses across the UK on a consultancy basis: strategy, structure, oversight, and honest second opinions.

What PPC Consultancy Looks Like in Practice

I'll tell you if what you've got is fine

Some consultants find problems because that’s how they win work. I don’t operate that way. If your Google Ads account is performing well, I’ll say so. You’ll leave the consultation with a clear picture of where you stand — even if the answer is ‘carry on’.

Experience Across Herefordshire's Key Sectors

Herefordshire businesses range from agricultural suppliers and rural trades to ecommerce brands and professional services. My background spans both home services and trades and ecommerce — which means I understand the difference between lead-gen campaigns and direct purchase funnels, and I won’t apply the wrong approach to your account.

I work remotely across the UK, so geography isn’t a constraint. If you’re based in Herefordshire or nearby in Worcestershire, Shropshire, or the Welsh border counties, a remote consultation works just as well as a face-to-face.

How a Consulting Engagement Works

  1. Initial callWe talk through your situation — what you’re running, who’s managing it, what you’re trying to achieve, and where the friction is.
  2. Scope agreementI’ll tell you what I can offer and at what level. Consulting arrangements vary — some are one-off sessions, some are ongoing. We agree something that fits.
  3. Review or advisory workI do the agreed work — whether that’s a strategy session, a structural review, or regular oversight calls with your team.
  4. Clear outputYou walk away with a clear view of what’s working, what isn’t, and what to do next. No vague recommendations wrapped in jargon.

Pricing

Consulting fees start from £300/month, with the exact arrangement depending on scope and frequency. I don’t publish a fixed rate card for advisory work because every situation is different. Book a call and we’ll agree something that fits your needs.

Frequently asked questions

How is a consultant different from an agency?

An agency takes over the management of your account and runs it for you. A consultant works alongside whoever is already running your ads — providing strategy, oversight, or a second opinion without replacing your existing setup.

Can you work with my in-house team in Herefordshire?

Yes. I work with in-house marketers and internal teams regularly. I can provide senior guidance, review their work, or help them build a stronger Google Ads structure without taking over day-to-day execution.

What if I just want a one-off session?

That’s possible. Some engagements are a single strategy session with clear output. Others are ongoing. We agree the scope on the initial call — nothing is assumed.

Do you only work in specific industries?

My strongest areas are ecommerce and D2C brands, and home services or trades businesses. But Google Ads principles transfer across sectors — if your situation is outside those niches, we can still have a useful conversation.

What makes you different from other PPC consultants?

Twelve years of hands-on experience, over £2M in ad spend managed personally, and Google Partner certification. More importantly: I give straight answers. I’m not trying to sell you more than you need.
