# PPC Consultant for Thatcham Businesses

Build or fix your in-house Google Ads capability. I advise, audit, and mentor. You stay in control. From £300/month.

## When You Need a PPC Consultant, Not an Agency

You've got someone running Google Ads—maybe it's you, maybe it's a junior hire, maybe it's a generalist who juggles PPC alongside SEO. They're doing *something*, but you're not sure if it's right. You don't want to hand over the reins to an agency. You want someone to look you in the eye and tell you what's actually happening.

That's a consultant. I don't take over. I don't lock you into a retainer and make you dependent. I review your setup, identify what's bleeding money, coach your team, and leave you stronger. Then I'm on-call if you need a second opinion.

## What I Actually Look At

- **Account structure.** Are your ad groups logical? Are you bidding on the right keywords, or throwing money at vanity terms?
- **Ad copy.** Does it actually sell, or does it just exist? Are you A/B testing, or guessing?
- **Tracking and attribution.** Do you know what converts? Or are you optimising blindly?
- **Budget efficiency.** Is your spend going toward profitable channels, or are you padding out low-ROAS ad groups?
- **Competitive landscape.** Berkshire is expensive. Are you defending your best keywords?

## The Honest Bit: Most Consultants Won't Tell You

Most consultants find a problem and immediately try to own the solution. It's how they keep you paying. I won't do that. If your current person is doing good work, I'll tell you that. If your setup is actually solid and the issue is conversion optimisation (not ads), I'll point you to a CRO expert instead. I'm here to tell you what's true, not what's profitable for me.

## How Consulting Works

1. **Call and scope** — Tell me what you're running and what's not working. I'll outline what I need to review.
2. **Deep audit** — I'll pull your data, review performance, check tracking, and identify waste.
3. **Consultation + roadmap** — I'll present findings, walk through recommendations, and give you a clear action plan. Then you decide what to do.

### Retainers Available

> Some clients prefer ongoing fractional support—a few hours per month to stay hands-on while I mentor their team. That's from £300/month too. We'll scope it properly on a call.

## Frequently asked questions

### How is this different from hiring an agency?

You stay in control. I advise and mentor; you execute. Agencies take over and own the relationship. Consultants make you smarter and leave.

### Can you help if we're in Berkshire?

Yes. I'm remote and UK-wide. I've worked with teams across the South. Berkshire's CPC market is actually something I specialise in.

### What if I'm running ads myself and have no idea what I'm doing?

Perfect fit. I'll audit, show you what's wrong, and walk you through fixes. Then you'll know if you want to keep doing it or hire someone.

### How much does a consultation cost?

A call and initial scope are free. For a full audit, I'll quote based on your account size and complexity. We'll sort it on a call—no surprise invoices.

### Do you work with home services businesses?

Yes, that's one of my main niches. Electricians, plumbers, builders, service teams—I know how to structure and bid your campaigns.

### Can you set up tracking if ours is broken?

I'll audit it and tell you what's wrong. If it's Google Analytics or Google Tag Manager setup, I can guide you or walk you through it. Complex custom tracking might need a developer.
