You've got someone running your ads. You want a second opinion.

Maybe they’re not performing. Maybe you’re not sure if they’re pushing the right strategy. Maybe you just want a senior set of eyes to validate the direction. That’s what I do—I come in as your strategic partner, audit what you’re running, and tell you exactly what’s working and what isn’t.

Where fractional consulting helps

Watford's CPCs are brutal if you're not disciplined.

London commuter belt means high-competition keywords cost more. A fractional consultant can show your operator where to shift focus—away from expensive generics, toward long-tail and intent-driven keywords that work in your margin.

I'll give you the honest diagnosis

Sometimes the person running your ads is fine; the strategy is just wrong. Sometimes the strategy’s right but execution is sloppy. Sometimes your ads genuinely are fine and you’re just anxious. I’ve managed £2M+ in ad spend over 12 years; I’ve seen every permutation. I’ll tell you what’s actually broken and what’s working as designed.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a consultation cost?

Starts from £300 per month for ongoing fractional support. One-off consulting is quoted on a call based on scope. If you just need an audit and recommendations, expect a one-time fee; if you want me checking in monthly, we’d structure an ongoing retainer.

Will you work with my current Google Ads operator?

Absolutely. I’m here to give you a second opinion, not to push them out. If they’re good, I’ll validate that. If there are gaps, I’ll recommend fixes they can implement.

What's different about working with someone who's done £2M in spend?

I’ve seen what works at scale and what doesn’t. I know the edge cases, the traps, the hidden optimisations. I won’t waste your time on theory; everything I recommend is based on what’s actually won auctions and driven sales.

Should I bring in a consultant if my ads are performing?

If they’re genuinely performing well and you trust your operator, you might not need me. But if you’re curious whether there are untapped opportunities—different keywords, new audiences, different bid strategies—a fresh set of eyes usually finds something.

How does consulting work for Watford businesses specifically?

Watford and Hertfordshire are high-cost markets. I’d audit your account through the lens of that reality—looking for keyword cost efficiency, audience targeting precision, and geographic bid adjustments that work in a London commuter-belt market. Often that means shifting budget away from generic keywords toward more specific, local intent.

Can you help with home services or ecommerce?

Both are specialisms of mine. Home services I’d review around lead quality, call conversion tracking, and service-area targeting. Ecommerce I’d focus on feed strategy, ROAS targets, and customer lifetime value modelling.
