Google Ads Mgr, Strategist & Auditor - Founding Member YouVsGoogle.com

I've managed Google Ads, Google Business Profiles (GMBs), Google Analytics, and Tag Manager for the last 12 years. A total of 43000 hours have been logged via direct relationships and via Upwork. My clients range from $2k to $100k/month, occasionally a bit higher. While I am actively involved in account creation and management, I have strategic skills that only come from long hours being engaged in more than 500 Google Ads accounts and making a conscious and recurring effort to talk shop with other experts. I can almost always improve things for my clients. If you give me the time and follow my instructions—which usually involves a commitment from you to invest in creative work and scrupulous attention to adapting your site—you will get better. Ultimately you have to do two things to succeed with Google Ads - (1) Do it the way Google Wants (mostly). (2) Do things that are additive and different than your competitors. I am an active member of the following: For Google & YouTube Ads - Solutions 8 Mastermind - YouVsGoogle - PPC Mastery For GA4 and GTM - Optimize Smart For Google Business Profile / Local SEO - Bright Local These are four of the most prominent sites on the web where Google Ads and Analytics strategists gather for continuing education, weekly seminars, and to share advice about Google Ads, YouTube Ads, GMB/GBP/local SEO, and GA4/GTM. What does the above mean for you? This means I keep up with the very latest insights, AND I have the best subscription resources on the web when it comes to working out difficult problems that come about with ads and tracking. Have you tried getting any support from Google Ads recently, let alone expert help? I have access to the best minds in the Google Ads business, which means you will also have access.
