When You Need a Second Opinion

Maybe you’re already working with an agency but want an independent review. Maybe you’re self-managing and need validation that you’re on the right track—or a prod in the right direction. Maybe you had a consultant before, things got stale, and you need fresh strategic thinking. Fractional consulting is for business leaders who want senior input without handing over the keys.

I come in, review your setup end-to-end, and tell you what’s working and what’s wasting money. Then we figure out what you need: a quarterly strategy day? Monthly check-ins? Just a one-off audit followed by your team executing? We’ll price accordingly and shape it around your rhythm.

Consulting We Offer

Honest Enough to Say Your Ads Are Fine

Not everything needs fixing. If your Google Ads are solid and your conversion rate is healthy, I’ll tell you that too. Doesn’t mean there’s zero room to improve, but I won’t manufacture problems to justify a contract.

Why Fractional Works

You don’t need a full-time PPC manager unless you’re spending £20,000+ per month. Below that, fractional strategy makes more sense: pay for senior input when you need it, keep most of the work in-house or with your current agency. I’ve got 12 years in Google Ads and £2M+ direct spend under my belt. You get that for a few hours a month instead of a full-time salary.

The Pitch-Free Promise

I’m not here to upsell you into ongoing management. If fractional consulting is what you need, that’s what you get. If we find that you actually do need hands-on management and you want to hire me for that, brilliant—we’ll talk pricing. But consulting recommendations stay separate from a sales push.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between consulting and full management?

Consulting: you (or your team or agency) run day-to-day. I give strategic input, spot problems, recommend changes. Management: I do the work—optimisation, testing, reporting. Most businesses need both at some point; consulting gets you unstuck faster and costs less.

Do you work with Horncastle and Lincolnshire businesses?

Absolutely. I work remote across the UK. Doesn’t matter if you’re in Horncastle, Spilsby, or Lincoln—time zone and location aren’t factors.

Can you tell if my current agency is any good?

Yes. I’ll audit your account against best practice, check if they’re testing new keywords, review their bid strategy, look at conversion tracking. I’ll be blunt: are they earning their fee? Sometimes the answer is yes and we just refine the strategy together. Sometimes it’s no.

What does fractional strategy cost?

Pricing depends on scope. A one-off 2-hour audit is quoted separately. Ongoing monthly or quarterly strategy typically starts from £300/month, but I’ll give you a proper quote on a call based on the work involved.

Can you advise on an existing campaign?

That’s exactly what consulting is. Bring me your Google Ads, your spreadsheet, your landing pages, your conversion data, and we’ll dig into what’s working and what’s not. No account takeover needed.
