Stop burning your budget on unprofitable campaigns. If your Google or Meta ads are generating “junk” leads or stagnant ROAS, you don’t need a new bidding strategy or more budget - you need a better system and I can help with it. I managed over 600 businesses across UK, Ireland, and Romania, and specialise in fixing the “quality lead gap” for service or SaaS businesses. I have also helped hospitality, entertainment and e-commerce businesses increase their ROAS by optimising their account and campaign structure. Why hire me over the “average” freelancer? My expertise isn’t self-taught through YouTube. I was trained directly by Google and Meta during my tenure at Google and Accenture. I combine “Big Tech” insider knowledge with the practical, hands-on experience of scaling hundreds of accounts. My “Performance-First” Methodology Through 600+ account audits, I’ve developed a framework that guarantees results: 1. Goal Alignment: We define your goal or “North Star” metric first. If the tracking is wrong, the campaign is wrong. ”Example: In my job at Google, I worked with an electric car company looking for leads. They were operating with multiple websites for a long time, but not seeing results. After working with me, they realised that their structure was deeply flawed and they are not even tracking all websites. “ 2. The “Core Four” Optimisation: Before touching budgets, I optimise keywords/audience, creative, structure and form/landing page. These can impact results more than you think. ”Example: I helped an office refurbishment business grow from 0 to 9 conversions a month by completely restructuring their main campaign, keywords and landing page.” 3. Scientific Scaling: I implement controlled A/B testing that allows for growth without putting your existing campaign at risk. Case Studies: Proven Lead Gen Success Case Study: Criminal Law Firm: Struggling with 0-2 conversions per month in campaigns. After switching to max conversions from manual bidding in Google Ads and a keyword restructure based on keyword planner, they scaled so rapidly that they had to hire additional staff just to handle the lead volume. The budget was not altered and we did not add broad match to affect the volume. The leads grew to 10-15 a month per campaign, but still remained good quality. Proven Meta Ads Case Study: Makeup brand: they were struggling with their ROAS, because their retargeting was not working well, when they were expecting it to be the biggest ROAS driver. The problem was that they had 2 ad sets, one focused on client acquisition with a lookalike audience, and another on retargeting with a custom audience, all under a Campaign Budget (CBO). It is known, that CBO prioritises bigger audiences, so the budget was going to the lookalike one as it’s targeting an wider audience. We managed to fix this by separating the campaigns and the owner said that “I explained this better than her agency that she was paying £300 to”. My Full-Stack Growth Services: - Growth Partnership: Short-term and Long-term Google & Meta Ads audit and management - Landing Page Optimisation Strategy: Turning clicks into customers with high-performance UX strategy. - Video & Awareness Strategy & Management: crafting high-converting video strategy for organic and paid. Additionally, long-term support with scripting videos. View previous YouTube account scripted by me here (I grew it from 0 to 24.9K subscribers) - Content Strategy: I can help create organic content for your website and socials as part of an additional package to the paid ads support. Ready to scale? If you are ready for a comprehensive audit and a clear strategy, let’s talk. Message me with the words “Let’s Meet” and I’ll send over my booking link for a discovery call.

I build Google Apps Script & API solutions that save companies hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars. Whether it’s pulling data from an external CRM, breaking down massive JSON files into clean Google Sheets, or replacing a fragile Zapier setup with a robust API workflow, I make complex systems simple and reliable. With over $300k earned on Upwork, 25+ perfect reviews, and 8+ years of experience automating Google Workspace, I specialize in turning messy, manual workflows into powerful, user-friendly tools your team will actually love. What I Do Best: 🔷Automate workflows across Google Sheets, Docs, Drive, Gmail, and Forms using Google Apps Script 🔷Build custom dashboards and reporting tools inside Google Workspace 🔷Develop secure web apps powered by Apps Script with custom user access 🔷Create API integrations between Google Workspace and CRMs, databases, or other platforms 🔷Transform JSON & API data into clean, structured Google Sheets ready for analysis 🔷Optimize and maintain existing Apps Script automation projects for speed, scalability, and reliability A lot of teams come to me after trying no-code/low-code tools like Zapier, Make, or Airtable automations. They work for a while, then break down — missed data, duplicate records, endless troubleshooting — and the freelancer who set it up is long gone. Most API/JSON data dumps are too complex for no-code tools. I break them down into clear Sheets or build lightweight web apps that handle the logic behind the scenes — so your team only sees what matters. That’s why I replace fragile setups with long-term automations built on Google Sheets, Apps Script, and APIs — documented, stable, and designed to grow with your business so you don’t get burned twice. Why Clients Choose Me: ✅ Proven Results — $300k+ earned on Upwork, perfect JSS, repeat clients in multiple industries ✅ Business-Minded Development — I don’t just code; I understand process, efficiency, and ROI ✅ Lightning-Fast Delivery — Most small-to-medium projects done in days, not weeks ✅ Reliable & Documented — Clear code and handover docs so you’re never stuck ✅ Scalable Solutions — Start small, grow into advanced web apps if your needs expand Recent Wins: 🏆Automated Folder Migration - Moved 40,000+ files with zero duplicates, saving 100+ staff hours. 🏆API Data Integration - Parsed 200k+ rows of JSON into structured sheets, eliminating manual exports. 🏆Custom Google Sheets CRM - Built for a patient management team, replacing a $20k/year SaaS. 🏆Quotation Tracking System - Auto-generates PDFs from line data into an organized folder structure, saving 100+ hours/year.
