Colorado Springs, United States - 10:51 pm local time
I've managed Google Ads and Meta Ads, Google Analytics, and Tag Manager (GTM) for 18+ years and am Expert-Vetted by Upwork for Google Ads. I also have good companion knowledge of Google Business Profiles (GBPs), GA4, and GTM. I can provide detailed audits of Local SEO. I am active in Claude, CHATgpt and Gemini. I am in the midst of automating my systems. Projected completion is 7/3.

I have been a Certified Google Ads Partner since 2012.

View my certifications at Accredible under Doug Shaw.

In the last 18 years, I have logged 50,000 hours via direct relationships and Upwork. My clients spend between $2k and $300k/month on Google Ads, occasionally a bit lower. While I am actively involved in account creation and management, I have honed strategic skills through long hours managing more than 500 Google Ads accounts, consistently talking shop with other experts, and being fully on board with AI.

Ultimately, you must do two things to succeed with Google and Meta Ads:
(1) Do it the way Google I Meta wants (mostly).
(2) Do things that are additive and differentiating from your competitors.

I am an Active Member of All of the following :

These are the Top Seven sites where marketing strategists gather for continuing education, weekly seminars, and to share advice about Google Ads, Meta Ads, YouTube Ads, GMB/GBP/local SEO, B2B Marketing, and GA4.

What does the above mean for you? This means I keep up with the latest insights and have the best subscription resources on the web to solve complex problems related to Google Ads, Meta Ads and Tracking. Have you recently tried getting support from Google or Meta Ads, let alone expert help? I have access to the best minds in the Google Ads business, which means you will also have access.

    Easily five stars. Doug is the rare consultant who combines deep Google Ads knowledge with the ability to actually explain it in simple terms. He pulls back the curtain on how things work — not just surface-level recommendations, but the real mechanics driving performance. The consultation was an education as much as it was a strategy session. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to understand their advertising, not just outsource it.
