INTRODUCTION
=============
I build and manage high-performing Google Ads campaigns. I focus on client satisfaction and maximizing return on investment. Services include account strategy, new campaigns, keyword research, ad writing, performance monitoring, tag configuration, and conversion optimization.
In my career, I've succeeded in a variety of jobs, including Fortune 50 Banking (Chase), Fortune 50 Tech (Dell), Fortune 50 Aerospace (Boeing), and small business founder/owner (digital marketing, boating excursion company).
Following my dad's example as an entrepreneur, I started my first business in the mid-90s. I focus on helping small and medium businesses grow and thrive through digital marketing. I enjoy meeting new clients and understanding their unique advertising needs and problems.
I have experience with various clients advertising on Google Ads, including e-commerce, construction, real estate, lawyers, hospitals, doctors, funded startups, SaaS, tour operators, hospitality/B&Bs, nonprofits, and more.

We’ll fill out a thorough but straightforward planning document to outline your requirements and pain points. This becomes our guide to building a high-performing account and pinpoints ways to save money and get you more conversions.
For clients who currently run Google Ads, I'll do a 100-point account audit and deliver the results in a clear action plan (spreadsheet).
