# PPC Consultant for Sunderland Businesses

Senior PPC advisor for businesses with existing ads. I offer strategy, second opinions, fractional management, and troubleshooting—no full takeover needed.

## When to call a consultant

You've got someone running your Google Ads—an agency, an in-house person, a freelancer. But you're not sure if the strategy is solid. Or you've hit a plateau. Or you want a second pair of eyes before making big changes. That's exactly what I do. I don't replace your existing team; I complement them with 12 years of campaign experience and a blunt outside view.

## Typical consulting engagements

- **Strategy review** — Audit your current setup, keyword strategy, bid approach, creative performance. Identify what's working and what's costing money.
- **Fractional management** — Handle specific campaigns or channels while someone else manages the rest. Typically 2–5 hours per week.
- **Troubleshooting** — Tracking's broken, conversions are down, ROAS is slipping. Let's find the real cause and fix it.
- **Second opinion** — Your team wants to launch a new campaign, restructure accounts, or change bidding. Get independent verification before betting on it.
- **Training & handover** — Teach your team how we'd approach a specific problem or campaign type. Leave them better equipped.

### What I won't do

> I won't pretend everything's fine if it isn't. If your ads are wasting money, I'll tell you. If your tracking is broken, we'll fix it or agree to fix it. If the problem is your landing pages or margins, I'll point that out. I'm not here to rubber-stamp decisions; I'm here to give you the straight truth.

## How this works

You describe the problem or question. We either schedule a call or I review your account directly with your permission. From there, depending on complexity, I might deliver a report, attend a team call, or work hands-on for a few weeks. Pricing is tailored to the work—there's no standard menu. Start with a consultation call and we'll scope it together.

## Why choose a senior consultant?

- No junior staff, no learning-on-your-dime, no reinventing the wheel
- Direct access—you call me, I answer
- Experience across ecommerce, home services, B2B, local trades
- Growth PPC proof—managed £20M+ at scale with 20.8x peak ROAS
- Honest enough to say your ads are fine, or they're not

## Sunderland and the North East

Based remote, serving businesses across Sunderland, County Durham, and the UK. Whether you're a North East roofing company scaling nationally or a product seller in Gateshead, the approach is the same: clear strategy, data-driven decisions, brutal honesty.

## Frequently asked questions

### How much does consulting cost?

It depends on the work. A one-off 2-hour strategy review costs different from fractional ongoing management. Starting point is usually £300/month for lighter work, scaling up for bigger projects. We'll quote properly after your first call.

### Will this replace my current agency or team?

No. We're supplementary. You keep your current setup and I come in as an advisor or part-time manager for specific work. Some clients bring me in for 3 months to overhaul strategy, then go solo. Others use me ongoing for a second opinion.

### What if my current team isn't happy with me getting outside help?

That's a conversation to have with them first. Most professional teams welcome a second opinion and external knowledge. If they're defensive, that might tell you something.

### Can you help with Sunderland-specific campaigns?

Absolutely. If you're targeting Sunderland or County Durham specifically—local services, geo-targeted offers—we'll make sure your location targeting, ad copy, and landing pages are optimised for your local market. Same logic applies whether you're local-only or national.

### Do you have a minimum engagement?

Not really. A single 2-hour strategy call is fine. Ongoing fractional work we typically talk in terms of months, not years. We're flexible around what you need.

### What happens after the consulting is done?

You're equipped with a plan and the confidence to execute it. If you need me again later, call. No lock-in, no surprise fees.

## Get a second opinion

Schedule a consultation call. We'll talk through your current setup, what's working, what's not, and what happens next. Straightforward conversation, no sales pitch.
