FAQ

Common questions about Google Ads.

How much should my business spend on Google Ads?

Google Ads budget should be sized to margins, average customer LTV, and competitive cost-per-click in your industry. We will quote a realistic starting budget after the free audit so the number maps to your actual unit economics.

How much does Google Ads management cost?

We quote Google Ads management after a free audit, scaled to your ad spend and account complexity. No percent-of-spend pricing. Build or relaunch projects are flat fees quoted separately.

How long until I see results from Google Ads?

Google Ads typically produces qualified leads in the first 1-2 weeks of launch, followed by a 30-60 day learning phase where we collect conversion data and optimize. Search campaigns ramp faster than PMax.

Do you require a long-term contract?

No 12-month lock-ins. Month-to-month services agreement with 30 days' notice to leave. Most clients stay 12+ months by choice, not by contract.

Who owns the Google Ads account?

You do. Always. We request manager-level access (MCC) to your account so it stays under your business name. If we ever part ways, the account, history, and assets stay with you.

How is AI changing Google Ads in 2026?

Smart Bidding, Performance Max, and AI Overviews have shifted the job. Feeding Google high-quality conversion data, strong creative assets, and clean account structure now matters more than micromanaging bids. We build accounts to work with the algorithm, not against it.
