Paid search built to grow profitable demand

We run paid search across Google, Microsoft Advertising, and ChatGPT Ads - and build the conversion data underneath, measured on revenue and margin.

Paid search performance depends on the quality of the conversion data platforms receive. Our data engineers build enhanced conversions, value rules, and first-party audiences; our media consultants manage the accounts that bid on them.

Media management and signal engineering, delivered by one team and measured on revenue and margin.

01

Discovery & Audit

Consultation & Objectives

We establish the commercial objectives paid search must serve: revenue, margin, lead quality, and the constraints around each. Media goals are set against business goals, and success criteria are agreed. Reporting definitions are fixed at the same time, so performance is judged one way.

Objectives & success criteria

Media & Measurement Audit

The account and its measurement are audited together: structure, bidding, budgets, and the tracking and conversion data feeding them. Findings are ranked by the spend and revenue at stake. What the reported numbers can and cannot support is stated plainly.

Landing Page Analysis

Landing pages are analyzed against the campaigns sending them traffic: message match, speed, and conversion paths. Friction findings feed both the media plan and the CRO backlog. Each finding is sized by the traffic and spend it affects.

Research & Strategy

Query & Auction Economics

Auction insights, impression share, and query-level economics are researched: which terms carry profitable demand, where competitors bid, and what headroom exists at what cost. The plan is set against the market you compete in, and findings are revisited quarterly.

Query economics & competitive analysis

Search Strategy & Structure

Our consultants define the search strategy: structure across Search, Shopping, and Performance Max, bidding approach, and budget allocation across Google, Microsoft Advertising, ChatGPT Ads, and Amazon, plus the first-party data and conversion values powering it. Sign-off comes before any restructure begins.
