Running ads on Google and not seeing results?
Are your costs increasing and conversions dropping?
Are your competitors outbidding you?
I can help. Freelancer at PayPerClix.com. I've been helping businesses win over their competition since 2008, and have overseen more than a billion in sales funneling from millions of ads I've created and managed.
My area of expertise is in the Google Ads and Microsoft Ads (a near copy of Google Ads) platforms. I'm completely focused on these two advertising channels. These platforms include search, video (YouTube), display, retargeting efforts, shopping, and more.
I love assisting businesses dramatically improve their return on investment with existing marketing accounts or setting up successful campaigns for the first time, performing the research to find the right angle to help them gain the most business for the least cost per click. Return on investment for my clients is my passion.

What sets me apart from the big marketing agencies? It's simple: I prioritize your long-term success, not just my upfront profits. I've spent the last 15 years working within the industry, gaining a deep understanding of online marketing from the ground up. I've been in the trenches, doing everything from Content Marketing to Advanced PPC. I've seen how the industry operates and know what frustrates clients.
I even left a six-figure job at one of the biggest and most well-known marketing firms in Los Angeles. Why? Because I grew tired of seeing clients treated as just another revenue stream. At those large agencies, the focus is often on the initial sale, the hefty setup fees, and then moving on to the next client. The ongoing management becomes an afterthought, with clients lucky to get even 1-2 hours per month of mediocre campaign attention. I knew there was a better way.
That's why I started working directly with my own clients as a freelancer. It's not a large corporation; it's just me and my wife working from our home office. This allows us to provide a level of dedicated, personalized service that those big firms simply can't match. We can dedicate the necessary time – at least 2-3 hours per week – to manage and optimize your paid campaigns. We're not just setting them up and forgetting about them; we're actively involved in their performance.
We believe in open communication and accessibility. We are always available to answer any questions, talk on the phone or via Zoom, screen share to explain strategies, or send detailed progress reports to keep you informed every step of the way. We consider ourselves your partners, working with you on every aspect of your campaigns.
Ultimately, the most important goal is to keep your CPA (cost-per-acquisition) low, ensuring that your paid campaigns are profitable and sustainable. We understand that this is often easier said than done. You have a company to run, and you need to trust someone to invest your marketing dollars wisely. We take that responsibility seriously, striving to get you the highest possible ROAS (Return on Ad Spend).
Here's how we achieve that:
Google & Microsoft Ads:
Marketing Strategy Development: We don't just jump into tactics; we develop a comprehensive marketing strategy aligned with your business objectives.
Campaign Setup and Optimization: We meticulously set up your campaigns for optimal targeting and performance, and we continuously optimize them based on data and insights.
Ad Copy Creative and Split Testing: We craft compelling ad copy that resonates with your target audience, and we use split testing to identify the most effective messaging.
Conversion Implementation: We ensure accurate conversion tracking is in place, so we can measure the success of your campaigns and optimize for results.
Analytics Setup: We set up and utilize robust analytics to gain a deep understanding of user behavior and campaign performance.
Keyword Research: We conduct thorough keyword research to identify the most relevant and high-performing search terms.
Advanced Geo Targeting: We utilize advanced geo-targeting to reach the right audience in the right location.
Bid Management: We implement effective bid management strategies to maximize efficiency and ROI.
Conversion and ROAS Optimization: We constantly optimize your campaigns to improve conversion rates and maximize your return on ad spend.
Display Ads Creative and Split Testing: We create engaging display ads and use split testing to optimize their performance.
Remarketing Setup and Optimization: We implement and optimize remarketing campaigns to re-engage potential customers and drive conversions.
Mobile Adjustment and Optimization: We ensure your campaigns are fully optimized for mobile devices.
Advanced Scheduling: We utilize advanced scheduling to show your ads at the most effective times.
Extensions Optimization: We optimize ad extensions to enhance your ads and improve their visibility.
YouTube Video Marketing (Video Ads Production excluded): We help you leverage the power of YouTube advertising (excluding video production).
Meta Ads (Facebook and Instagram):
Sponsored Ads and Updates Creative and Split Testing: We create engaging sponsored ads and updates, and we use split testing to optimize their performance.
Advanced Audience Targeting: We utilize advanced audience targeting to reach the right people on Facebook and Instagram.
A/B Test Management: We manage A/B tests to optimize your ad campaigns.
Ad Copy design and optimization: We craft compelling ad copy designed to maximize engagement and conversions.
Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to the opportunity to help your business thrive.

I’m Alex, founder of Comstock Media, where we manage Google Ads and Meta Ads campaigns for service businesses that need qualified leads, not just traffic.
My work includes Google Ads management, PPC lead generation, Facebook Ads, Instagram Ads, conversion tracking, search campaign optimization, and ongoing account management.
If you’re looking for a Google Ads Expert, Google Ads Strategist, PPC Specialist, or Lead Generation Specialist who can manage your campaigns with clear strategy, clean tracking, and ongoing optimization, I can help.
I’ve spent 13+ years managing Google Ads and Meta Ads campaigns for service businesses, local businesses, healthcare practices, professional services companies, B2B companies, and lead generation campaigns across competitive markets.
Most underperforming Google Ads and PPC accounts have the same problems:
⚠️ Too much reliance on Google automation
⚠️ Broad or poorly segmented campaigns
⚠️ Weak keyword strategy
⚠️ Not enough negative keywords
⚠️ Poor search term management
⚠️ Conversion tracking issues
⚠️ Campaigns optimized for clicks instead of qualified leads
⚠️ Landing pages that don’t match the search intent
⚠️ Reporting that shows activity, but not real business value
That is what I focus on fixing.
My work includes Google Ads management, PPC campaign management, Google Search campaigns, Meta Ads management, Facebook Ads management, lead generation strategy, conversion tracking review, search term analysis, negative keyword management, campaign structure, landing page feedback, and ongoing campaign optimization.
I do not believe paid ads should be managed on autopilot. A strong Google Ads lead generation campaign needs structure, clear targeting, clean data, and regular hands-on review.
When I manage a Google Ads or Meta Ads account, I look closely at:
➤ Search intent
➤ Keyword quality
➤ Negative keywords
➤ Match types
➤ Campaign structure
➤ Audience targeting
➤ Geographic targeting
➤ Lead quality
➤ Cost per lead
➤ Conversion tracking
➤ Landing page alignment
➤ Budget allocation
➤ Retargeting opportunities
➤ Search terms and wasted spend
The goal is not just to get more clicks. The goal is to generate better leads at a cost that makes sense for your business.
My approach is especially useful for:
➤ Local service businesses
➤ Healthcare and medical practices
➤ Dermatology practices
➤ Med spas
➤ Mortgage and real estate-related lead generation
➤ Professional service businesses
➤ B2B service companies
➤ High-ticket service businesses
➤ Businesses that rely on booked calls, form submissions, consultations, or qualified inquiries
How I work:
✅ Month-to-month management, so you can cancel any time
✅ You always own your Google Ads account, Meta Ads account, tracking, data, and landing pages
✅ You work directly with me on strategy, account direction, reporting, and performance decisions
✅ Regular reporting with clear explanations of what is happening and what should be improved
✅ Focus on lead quality, not just lead volume
✅ Clear separation between ad spend and management fees
✅ No long-term contracts
I can help if you need:
➤ Google Ads account management
➤ Google Ads campaign setup
➤ Google Ads audits
➤ Google Ads optimization
➤ PPC lead generation
➤ Search campaign management
➤ Meta Ads management
➤ Facebook Ads lead generation
➤ Instagram Ads campaigns
➤ Conversion tracking review
➤ Google Tag Manager support
➤ GA4 review
➤ Landing page feedback
➤ Lead quality improvement
➤ Search term cleanup
➤ Negative keyword strategy
➤ Campaign rebuilds
➤ Ongoing PPC management
GOOGLE ADS AND META ADS SUCCESS STORIES:
🏠 Mortgage Broker
Dropped cost per lead from just over $80 to under $20 in Google Ads campaigns by moving away from over-automated campaign structure and rebuilding around higher-intent searches, tighter targeting, and stronger manual control.
🧴 Dermatology Practice
Scaled Google Ads spend from $3K/month to $60K/month over the course of a year. The campaigns now drive 30%+ of total new patient volume after a full account rebuild, improved campaign structure, and strategic scaling.
💻 B2B SaaS Company
Cut cost per acquisition by over 70% by refining audience targeting, improving segmentation, and building campaigns focused on higher-intent users across Google Ads and Meta Ads.
If you are looking for a Google Ads Expert, PPC Strategist, Meta Ads Specialist, Facebook Ads Manager, or Lead Generation Specialist who understands service businesses and cares about qualified leads, I’d be happy to review your account and discuss where performance can improve.
