Fixed-fee Google Ads management for mid-market B2B
AI finds the pattern. Experience decides what it means.
We run Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn, and ChatGPT ad programs with AI doing the volume work and twenty-three years of search judgment deciding what ships. One fixed monthly fee. Measured in your CRM.

The model proposed
What ships
Budget: 70% Search, 30% Performance Max
40 / 20 / 40 with LinkedIn. Half this buyer’s journey happens before anyone searches.
Goal: maximize conversions, target CPA $140
Bid to opportunity value. The $140 leads are students and vendors.
Audience: expand to in-market segments, +22% reach
Build from closed-won in the CRM. 300 accounts that look like customers, not 3 million.
Negatives: 212 terms from last quarter’s waste
Accepted. This is the work the machine does better than we do.
Creative: rotate 15 generated headlines
Three. Each answers the objection sales hears on the first call.
Offer: “Request a demo”
A 15-minute teardown of their current setup. Everyone offers a demo; nobody offers to show them what’s broken.

Case study · Client name redacted · Data-management software
Pipeline went from a missed target to 230% of target in two quarters.
A B2B software company selling to data and analytics leaders across North America and Europe. The quarter before we rebuilt their campaigns, pipeline was lagging. Two quarters later: $4.4M against a $1.9M target, MQLs at 238% of goal, and cost per qualified lead falling on every platform.

What the model recommended
What we did
What the model recommended
What we did
Scale the top converter, the analyst-report campaign
Kept it and added SMB negatives. It was 64% of MQLs and 88% of disqualifications.
Cut brand campaigns to fund non-brand
Held brand. Zero disqualified, 15 to 17% to SQL, the cheapest MQLs in the mix.
Keep Meta for lead volume
Dropped it. Search carries intent; Google posted its highest conversion quarter on record.
Raise the Google budget now
Raised it 55%, but only after conversion volume proved out.

Programs and fees
Three fixed-fee programs, priced by scope.
A percent-of-spend fee rewards a bigger budget. A fixed fee rewards a better one. Every program includes conversion-tracking repair, weekly optimization, a live dashboard, and a monthly report with an executive summary and change log.

How an engagement runs
Fix measurement first. Then let the platform spend.
Weeks 1–2
Audit and tracking
Conversion actions, GA4 key events, tag health, CRM stages. Nothing gets bid on until the numbers are trustworthy.
Weeks 3–4
Rebuild
Structure, search-term tiers, negatives, landing-page alignment, and ad copy grounded in what already converts.
Months 2–3
Bid to pipeline
Offline imports and value rules so the platforms optimize to SQLs and opportunities, not whoever fills a form.
Ongoing
Scale with guardrails
Budget follows lead quality by campaign. Monthly review with sales, quarterly with leadership.
SEO and GEO, with any program or on its own
The same search data, working on both sides of the results page.
Paid search tells you which terms convert before SEO spends a quarter finding out. We use search-term data to set the month’s priorities, pull paid spend off terms you already own, and track where your company shows up when buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google’s AI results instead of searching. Your team implements. We decide what comes first.
Monthly monitoring
Rankings, Search Console, AI visibility, and paid overlap, read every month.
Priorities memo
What to fix first, with notes. Prioritized by paid conversion data, not crawl volume.
AI search visibility
Which prompts surface you, which surface competitors, and why.
Projects, quoted
Site audits, page-by-page optimization, redesign supervision, custom work.
Pricing
$1,000 a month, on its own or with any program.
Who this is for
B2B companies where a lead is the start of a sales cycle, not the end of one.
Fit
Mid-market B2B software, services, and industrial. ACV above [$XXK]. A CRM you’ll let us connect to. Monthly media of [$XXK] or more.
Not fit
E-commerce, local lead gen, anyone who wants a dashboard of clicks, or a budget that has to grow every month to keep the agency interested.
