Google Ads Management That Makes Money
I manage Google Ads personally, with campaign planning, conversion tracking, weekly optimisation and reporting.
My fee is a flat $800+GST a month, paid month to month.
You set your advertising budget and pay Google directly through an account you own.
Each form enquiry from the landing page I build is texted to your mobile within seconds, naming the ad keyword behind it.
You can start with a free written review of your existing account.

What my Google Ads management includes.
Everything below is part of the $800+GST monthly fee. I build it, run it and report on it myself, for service businesses and online stores across Australia.
Search campaigns
Campaigns built around the services you want more of. I choose keywords for buying intent, in exact and phrase match, so your budget goes to people ready to hire or buy. Each campaign gets ads written for the searches it targets.
Performance Max and Shopping
Where they suit the business, an online store for example, I run Performance Max and Shopping alongside Search. I report them separately from Search, so you can see what each campaign type brings in on its own.
Conversion tracking, set up and checked
Forms, calls from your ads and website phone taps each get their own conversion action, tested on your live site. Google's bidding learns from these numbers, so I get them right before anything else.
A custom landing page, included
I build a landing page for your ads as part of the fee, matched to the searches that pay for the click and carrying the conversion tag. Have a look at the landing pages I've built for Google Ads clients.
Weekly search terms and negatives
Every week I read the search terms report, add negative keywords so spend stays on searches that match your work, and pace bids and budget so the money lasts the whole month.
A plain-English monthly report
Tracked conversions, cost per tracked conversion and return on ad spend where revenue is tracked, with forms, calls and phone taps in separate columns, so you can see what your budget bought.
Pro Roof and Gutter: ads and landing pages built as 1 job.
Pro Roof and Gutter is a roofing and guttering company based in Elizabeth South, northern Adelaide. I rebuilt their entire website, then built 2 conversion-first landing pages made for the ad traffic, so each paid click lands on a page about the exact service that was searched for:
- /services/roof-replacement-adelaide
- /services/gutter-replacement-adelaide
I also manage the Google Ads account, with Enhanced Conversions, Google Tag Manager, GA4 event tracking and call tracking all in place. That's why the numbers below are measured figures. The same tracking checks are step 1 of my Google Ads audit checklist, if you want to run them on your own account.
Search campaigns, 30 days to 17 July 2026
Roof Replacement (Search)
43.88%
conversion rate, at $42.66 per tracked conversion
40.81 conversions from $1,740.83 in spend, at an average cost per click of $18.72.
Gutter Replacement (Search)
20.00%
conversion rate, at $65.80 per tracked conversion
27 conversions from $1,776.63 in spend, at an average cost per click of $13.16.
Why the conversion rate is that high
Someone searching for a roof replacement lands on a page about roof replacement, and someone searching for gutter replacement lands on a page about gutter replacement. The offer, the photos, the proof and the call button all match the search that paid for the click.
The second half is measurement. Enhanced Conversions, GTM, GA4 events and call tracking mean the campaigns optimise on real recorded actions, so Google's bidding learns from accurate data.
What a tracked conversion actually is
The tracked conversion actions here are phone calls, website form submissions and website phone-link clicks. A phone-link click shows intent to call, so I count these as tracked conversions and keep them apart from confirmed sales conversations.
Performance Max is reported separately, because its conversions are dominated by click-to-call and pull the whole-account average below the 2 Search campaigns. The full campaign-by-campaign table is on my cost page.
Separate window: 14 June to 13 July 2026 vs the prior 30 days
Spent less, account produced more.
From my own client report, comparing 14 June to 13 July 2026 against the 30 days before it: account spend was $4,470, down from $5,474. Tracked conversions were 241, up from 183. Cost per tracked conversion was $18.52, down from $29.96. On the Roof Replacement campaign specifically, the conversion rate was 35.9% of clicks, up from 33.9%, at $50.83 per conversion, down from $57.08.
These are period-on-period figures from a different date range to the 30 days to 17 July 2026 numbers above, so they're shown separately.
Ecommerce client: Delidoor
Annual revenue from Google Ads: $300K to $1.3M.
Delidoor is an ecommerce business, and the measure that matters there is revenue. With me, its annual revenue from Google Ads grew from $300K to $1.3M.
Included in my fee
Your ads get their own landing page.
I build the destination as part of the campaign, so the page each click lands on matches the search that paid for it: the same service, the same offer and a call button that's easy to find.

How I run your account, step by step.
The same 6 steps on every account I take on, whatever your budget.
1
A free written review, or a strategy call
If you're already running ads, I start with a free written review of your account. If you're starting fresh, a strategy call covers your services, your area and what a new customer is worth to you.
2
Tracking first
I check every conversion action and fix it before any budget goes up. Forms, calls from ads and phone taps each get their own action, so Google bids on numbers you can trust.
3
A keyword plan you approve
You see each keyword, the intent behind it, the page it lands on, its search volume and its estimated cost per click. Keywords go into the account once you've ticked them off.
4
Build and launch
I build the campaigns and the landing page, then watch a real conversion record on your live site before the campaigns go live.
5
Every week
Search terms, negative keywords, bids and budget pacing, so the account keeps learning from what your customers actually type.
6
Every month
A plain-English report with forms, calls and phone taps kept separate, so you can judge the account on enquiries you can count.

What it costs.
My fee is a flat $800+GST a month, month to month, and it's the same at any ad budget.
Your ad spend is separate: you set it, and Google bills your own card.
You own the account and keep it, with all its history, whatever you decide later.
| Cost | Amount | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Management fee | $800+GST a month, flat | Paid to Loudachris, the same at any budget |
| Ad spend | You set it | Paid to Google, on your own card |
| Custom landing page | Included | Built by me as part of the fee |
| Contract | Month to month | No lock-in |
