You already have someone running ads—but is it working?

Maybe you’ve got an in-house team, a junior, or an agency running your Google Ads. They’re doing something, but you’re not sure if it’s the right thing. You need a senior consultant who can audit what’s happening, tell you honestly whether it’s good or bad, and recommend next steps. That’s fractional PPC consulting.

Fractional consulting means

How fractional consulting starts

  1. Initial auditYou grant me view access to your Google Ads account (no admin needed). I spend 2–3 hours reviewing structure, performance, targeting, tracking, and competitive context.
  2. Findings callI walk you through what I found, what concerns me, and where the upside is. You ask questions; I explain trade-offs honestly.
  3. Bespoke quoteDepending on scope—audit only, one strategy call, monthly advisory hours—I quote you a fair rate. All conversations are on the call; I don’t charge by the minute.

Why fractional beats reactive

If you only call a consultant when something’s broken, you’re firefighting. Fractional work means we spot drift early, test ideas together, and make sure your team stays grounded in what actually works.

The consultant's edge

I’ve worked across ecommerce, D2C, home services, and B2B. I’ve seen what scales and what fails. That pattern recognition—knowing which bids to test first, which audiences are real, how to talk to your team about risk—is what 12 years of direct ad spend buys you.

Frequently asked questions

How is fractional consulting different from an agency?

An agency runs your campaigns end-to-end. A fractional consultant advises—you or your team own the execution. It’s cheaper, faster, and works well if you want to learn or you’re already happy with your team’s pace but want senior perspective.

Do you work with Kirkby businesses remotely?

Entirely. I don’t need to sit next to you. All audits, strategy calls, and training happen via video, email, or async reports. Works just as well for Kirkby, St Helens, Ormskirk, or anywhere else.

What if I just want a one-off audit?

That’s fine. No ongoing commitment. I’ll audit your account, give you findings, and you decide next steps. If you want follow-up advisory later, we can talk about that on a new call.

Can you work alongside my current agency or team?

Yes, as long as they’re not defensive about it. Some teams welcome the input; some don’t. We’ll discuss scope so there’s no turf confusion.

How much does an audit cost?

Quote on a call. It depends on account size and complexity. I’m upfront about time and cost before we start.

What if I discover I need hands-on management, not just advice?

We can discuss a shift to managed Google Ads. But there’s no pressure. If you want to stay fractional, that’s the better fit.

A consultation call costs nothing. You tell me what's running, and I ask the questions that reveal whether it's working or leaking money. No sales pitch, just honest feedback and a clear sense of what's possible next.
