Most automation projects don’t fail because the tools can’t connect. They fail because the process is unclear, the data can’t be trusted, or nobody has decided what should happen when the AI gets something wrong. That’s the part I focus on. I build AI agents, Python automations and API integrations for research, CRM management, data validation and everyday business operations. If you have a repetitive process held together by spreadsheets, browser tabs and manual checks, I can help turn it into a structured workflow that’s easier to run and maintain. I can help with: •AI agents for company, market and contact research •Python scripts and workflow automation •CRM enrichment, validation and quality control •Gmail and Google API integrations •Human approval stages, audit trails and duplicate protection •Obsidian knowledge bases and AI-assisted workspaces •Testing, documentation and handover One recent project involved building a source-traced research system that handled 250 targeted searches across 50 companies. Rather than hiding uncertain results, the system recorded confidence levels, evidence links and specific gaps requiring human review. I’ve also developed a controlled Gmail workflow with OAuth, approval checks, suppression rules, duplicate prevention, delivery receipts and automated testing. The aim was simple: make the process faster without giving up control or accountability. My BSc in Business Economics from Lancaster University helps me look beyond the technology and understand the commercial reason for building it. Before starting development, I define the inputs, expected outputs, failure cases and decisions that should remain with a person. You’ll receive clearly scoped work, honest communication and practical documentation. If you have a slow or unreliable process you’d like to improve, send me a message describing how it works today.

👋🏻 Hey, I'm Louis - been doing Google Ads and Conversion Tracking for ecommerce brands for 3+ years and just created my Upwork profile (hellooo freelancer world). Looking to build my reviews and case studies here, so if this lands in front of you, hit me up. First few clients get everything I've got! 😄 1️⃣ Here's What Makes Me Different: When you work with me, you don't get a "Google Ads zombie" who thinks in a silo and just pushes buttons inside your ad account. You get someone who looks at the full picture. Here's the truth - I've seen countless freelancers and agencies just "do Google Ads" and it's basically a coin flip whether the account does well or not. Why? Because they skip the foundations. They jump into campaigns without understanding your margins, your goals, or whether your tracking is even actually working. That's not how I operate. 🙅 2️⃣ I Start With Your Business, Not Your Ad Account: Before I touch a single campaign, I want to understand: → Your Unit Economics - What are your margins? What's your breakeven? What can you actually afford to pay for a customer and still be profitable? What is your profit to acquisition ratio? Most ecom owners aren't great with these numbers, and that's fine - that's literally why you hire me. → Your Goals - Not just "I want more sales." I'm talking business-level goals, channel-level goals, and campaign-level targets. I do the math to understand what each campaign should actually yield - in profit, not vanity metrics. This also helps align Google Ads with your other channels like Meta, Email, and SEO so everything works in sync - not in silos (as I said, I look at the full picture). → Your Business Context - Who's your customer? Who are your competitors that we need to beat? What's happening in your other channels? I only work with a few clients at a time because I actually want to understand your brand, not just bill you monthly. → Your Conversion Tracking - If your data is broken, every decision you make is based on lies. I audit your full tracking setup - GA4, GTM, server-side, enhanced conversions - and fix what's broken before I optimize anything. → Your GMC & Product Feed - Compliance issues, missing attributes, weak titles - your feed is the backbone of Shopping and PMax. I audit and optimize it so Google actually shows your best products. Only THEN do I look at your Google Ads account. 3️⃣ My Google Ads Strategy: Once the audit is done, I build a strategy that actually connects in sync to your business and it's goals - not a generic template. This includes: • Campaign structure (consolidate vs. segment - and why) • Bid strategies tied to your targets • Budgets allocated by profitability, not guesswork • Audience targeting based on real buyer behaviour • Ad creative production - RSAs, image ads, asset creation (video scripts provided for your team to produce) etc.. 4️⃣ The Execution: I don't just hand you a document and disappear. I execute on everything that I found in your audit: • Fix and upgrade your conversion tracking • Set up and optimize your GMC/product feed • Build and launch the campaigns properly • Ongoing management, optimization, and scaling • Monitoring, reporting, and A/B testing 5️⃣ The Consulting You Didn't Know You Needed: Look, I'm not going to pretend I can run your whole entire marketing department. Google Ads is what I do, and I do it well. But I also pay attention - and when I notice something outside my scope that's hurting your results (or can improve them), I'll tell you. These are the type of comments you'll hear when working with me: • "Hey can you bring in a CRO expert to re-do this landing page - my data shows it can unlock another 15% more profit." • "We're spending heavy on Product X but margins are tight - tell your email team to set up cross-sell flows to recover it on the backend." • "This hook is working really well on Google Ads - worth testing it on Meta too!" I understand that Google Ads is one piece of the puzzle - and it's one I've mastered. But it's also in my best interest to help you achieve growth everywhere, not just inside your ad account. That's what a real partner does. 6️⃣ Why Profit, Not ROAS: I talk to business owners like yourself in the language that actually matters - profit. Revenue is great (and your ROAS will look good too), but revenue without margin is just expensive exercise. That's why your bottom line is always my main priority. You'll always know what you're actually making, not just what the dashboard says. 7️⃣ Who I Work With: Ecommerce brands who want someone that thinks like a business partner, not a button-pusher. 8️⃣ Let's Partner Up: I'm building my Upwork presence, which means you get my full attention, senior-level thinking, and a genuine desire to make your account a case study I'm proud of. 📩 Send me a message - let's see if we're a good fit.
