For businesses with existing ads who want a second opinion, strategic direction, or hands-on advisory without the agency commitment. ## When You Need a Strategy Partner, Not a Manager You already have someone running your ads—maybe an agency, maybe in-house, maybe both. But you're not confident they're optimising in the right direction. Or your campaigns have plateaued. Or you're moving into a new market and need strategic input before you invest. This is where consulting comes in. *Strategy without the overhead.* I audit what you're doing, identify gaps and opportunities, and guide your existing team—or your current agency—toward better results. Or, if you prefer, I execute specific projects on your behalf. ## What Consulting Covers - **Account diagnostics.** Keyword strategy, ad structure, audience setup, landing page alignment, tracking validation. - **Competitive landscape review.** What your competitors are bidding on, how their ads differ, where they're winning. - **Strategy sessions.** Roadmap-building for scaling, entering new markets, testing new product lines or services. - **Campaign launches.** Hands-on execution for new campaigns—setup, launch, first-month monitoring. - **Team coaching.** If you have in-house staff, I can advise or train them on best practices. - **Performance reviews.** Monthly or quarterly check-ins to ensure you're on track and adapting to market changes. ## How a Consulting Engagement Works 1. **Define the Brief** — We talk through what you're trying to achieve. Scaling? Testing a new channel? Fixing underperformance? Entering a new market like Portsmouth or Shanklin? I'll understand the business goal first. 2. **Audit & Analysis** — I review your current ads, spend, performance data, and competitive context. No assumptions—I work from facts. 3. **Recommendations & Roadmap** — I'll give you a clear strategy: what's working, what's not, what to test, what to kill, and how to prioritise. Written brief or call—your choice. 4. **Execution or Handoff** — I either execute the strategy myself or advise your team/agency on how to do it. Either way, you're in control and fully informed. ### Pricing & Scope > Consulting isn't a flat retainer. We agree on a scope—usually 2–4 hours per month—and bill accordingly. Think of it as fractional CMO for your paid search. If you need ongoing management instead, I also offer full account management starting at £300/month. The scope you choose depends on what you need. ## The Honest Version Sometimes your existing setup is actually fine. I'll tell you that. Sometimes you need a full rebrand of your ad strategy. I'll tell you that too. My job isn't to upsell; it's to point you in the right direction and help you get there, whether that's with me or someone else. ### Other PPC help in Ryde - [PPC Agency in Ryde](/ppc-agency/ryde/) - [PPC Audit in Ryde](/ppc-audits/ryde/) ### Nearby areas I cover - [Portsmouth](/ppc-consultant/portsmouth/) - [East Cowes](/ppc-consultant/east-cowes/) - [Cowes](/ppc-consultant/cowes/) - [Shanklin](/ppc-consultant/shanklin/) - [Fareham](/ppc-consultant/fareham/) - [Havant](/ppc-consultant/havant/) ### Regional coverage - [PPC Consultant across Isle of Wight](/ppc-consultant/isle-of-wight/) ## Frequently asked questions ### How is this different from hiring an agency? Agencies manage your account day-to-day. Consulting is strategic input and guidance. I advise you; you (or your team/agency) execute. You stay in control. It's less expensive and more flexible than full management. ### Can you work with my existing agency? Yes. I often do. I audit and advise them on strategy, or I run specific campaigns in parallel to show what's possible. Some clients use me as a second opinion to validate their agency's direction. ### What's the typical cost of a consulting engagement? We scope it together. Most engagements are 2–4 hours per month of my time, billed at a rate we agree on during the initial call. I don't have a published rate; it depends on the scope and complexity. I'll quote it once you've explained what you need. ### Is this just a one-time audit, or can I retainer you? Both. One-time audits for diagnosis, or ongoing fractional consulting for strategy and guidance. Some clients want quarterly reviews; others want monthly touchpoints. I'll design it to fit your needs. ### Do you work with small teams or solo operators in Ryde and the Isle of Wight? Absolutely. In fact, that's often where fractional consulting shines. You can't afford a full-time PPC person, but you need strategic direction. That's exactly what this is built for. Local Isle of Wight businesses, UK-wide traders—I work with all of them. ### How long does a typical consulting engagement last? That's up to you. Some clients need 2–3 months of heavy input (e.g., launching a new campaign). Others retainer with me on a quarterly basis. No lock-in; you can pause or stop whenever you want. ## Let's Talk Strategy If you're running ads but uncertain about direction—or confident you're leaving money on the table—let's have a conversation. I'll ask tough questions, you'll get straight answers. **Call 07410 907 104**
