Google Ads Zero to One

Find out if Google Ads can grow your startup, without guessing.

A three-month Google Ads test, with an ad budget from $5K a month. I plan it, launch it and run it. At the end you know whether the channel works, and you have a proven setup to hand to an in-house team or an agency to scale.

Who it's for

Founders who want to try paid search but don’t have the time to learn it, or the budget to waste on a badly set-up account. Usually for one of two reasons:

01

To test the channel. Run a real experiment and learn whether people searching for what you do will click, sign up and pay.

02

To drive early growth. Bring in steady, high-intent signups while slower channels like SEO catch up.

How we work

Week 1

Discovery

A kickoff call on your product, buyers, competitors and what a good signup is worth to you.

Week 2

Agree the plan, then launch

Keywords, ad copy, landing pages, bid strategy and a target cost per signup. You sign off, then tracking goes in and campaigns go live.

Weeks 3–11

Optimise, with weekly updates

Search terms, bids, ads and budgets tuned every week. A short weekly note on what changed and why, and a monthly report against the target.

Week 12

Hand-off

A clear verdict on the channel, and a playbook of what worked (keywords, ads, landing pages, cost per signup) that your team or next agency can scale from.

Price

$3,000for the full three months

Campaign plan, setup, launch, weekly optimisation, monthly reports and the hand-off playbook. Half upfront, half at hand-off.

Flat fee: I don’t take a cut of your ad spend. Ad spend, from $5K a month, is paid by you, directly to Google.

Questions

How much should I spend on ads?

At least $5K a month. Less than that and three months won’t produce enough data to reach a clear verdict.

How will we know if it worked?

We agree a target cost per signup, trial or demo in the plan. At the end you get a verdict against that number, not a pile of click stats.

Do you build the landing pages?

No, but I tell you exactly what they need. You get a brief for each page (message, structure, what to test) and direction as your team builds it.

Who owns the ad account?

You do. Campaigns run in your Google Ads account, billed to your card. I work in it with manager access.

What I need from you

Access to Google Ads and Analytics, a way to track signups, and someone who can approve ads and landing page changes within two working days.

Can I stop early?

Yes, at any time. Campaigns pause, and you keep the account and everything built so far.

What if ads don't work for us?

Then you’ve found out for a fixed, known cost, with real data, which is the point of an experiment. You’ll know why, and where to put the budget instead.

What happens after three months?

The test ends. If ads work, you take the account and playbook to an in-house hire or an agency and scale from there. This is built to give you a clear answer, not an ongoing retainer.
