Full-service Google Ads for businesses agencies won't take.

Most agencies want $5K a month in ad spend before they'll answer the phone. We run the whole thing at the budget you actually have, usually $1-5K a month: landing page, conversion tracking, campaign build, and eyes on your account every day. One flat fee. Your ad spend goes straight to Google, never through us.

What the Retainer Covers

  • The Complete Campaign Build

    Account setup, keyword and competitor research, ad copy, negative keywords, and budget strategy - built from scratch or rebuilt from whatever you have now, inside the flat fee. Ad copy refreshes stay included for as long as we work together; we never meter the basics.

  • Landing Page and Tracking, Included

    Ads are half the job. We design and build a dedicated landing page that matches what your ads promise, and wire conversion tracking end to end so you can see exactly which clicks turn into leads. Most providers at this price don't touch either - we're engineers, so this is the part we're best at.

  • Attention Every Single Day

    Most providers touch your account somewhere between weekly and monthly. We sweep yours for wasted spend every day, and run deeper strategy reviews - search terms, bids, budgets, structure - three times a week. Our AI-assisted tooling is what makes that cadence affordable at this price; every judgment call is made by a person. You get reporting in plain English: what changed, why, and what it produced.

Pricing

One number, everything included. No setup fee, no percentage of your ad spend, no surprise line items.

Managed Google Ads

$795/mo

Setup fee: $0. Onboarding, account and campaign build, landing page, and conversion tracking are all part of the retainer - other providers charge hundreds to thousands just to get you to day one.

  • One Google Search campaign, run end to end

  • Dedicated landing page, designed and built by us

  • Conversion tracking wired from click to lead

  • Daily account fine-tuning, deep strategy reviews three times a week

  • Plain-English reporting: what changed, why, what it produced

  • Ad copy refreshes, always included

Founding clients - next 2-3 only

Same service, $495/mo

Grandfathered for as long as you stay.

We're opening this service to a small first group while we publish our case studies. You get the identical retainer at $300 under list, and the rate never goes up on you. In exchange, you let us publish your results as a case study. When these seats are gone, the price is $795.

Claim a Founding Seat

  • Your account

    You own the Google Ads account. We manage it through agency access you can revoke any time.

  • Your card

    Google bills your ad spend directly to your card. Your budget never passes through us.

  • Flat fee

    Never a percentage of spend. We get paid to make your budget efficient, not bigger.

Where it goes next: once your Google campaign proves it converts, we can layer in Microsoft Ads (clicks often run 30-40% cheaper), ChatGPT ads (we're already running them on our own account), and Meta. Each expansion is a decision we make together, with your numbers on the table.

How It Works

  1. an open-lid laptop showing a video call

    1

    Discovery Call

    30 minutes. We look at what you sell, what a lead is worth to you, and whether real search demand exists for it. If paid search isn't the right channel for your business, we tell you on the call and you've lost nothing but half an hour.

  2. a flag on a planet surface with stars

    2

    The Build

    We build everything: your Google Ads account, keyword and competitor research, ad copy, negative keywords, conversion tracking, and a dedicated landing page that matches what your ads promise. All inside the flat fee - month one costs the same as any other - and you own all of it from day one.

  3. a rubik cube, pencil, and gear icon

    Live, With Daily Attention

    Your campaign goes live and never sits unwatched: we fine-tune it every day, sweeping out wasted spend, and run deeper reviews three times a week - search terms, negatives, bids, budget pacing. Expect roughly $1,000 of spend before the first conversion; that's normal, and we say so up front. You get plain-English reporting on what changed, why, and what it produced.

  4. a rocket launching from a laptop screen

    Prove, Then Expand

    Once Google proves it converts, we scale what works: promote the search terms that bring buyers, cut the ones that don't, and layer in new channels - Microsoft Ads, ChatGPT ads, Meta - when the numbers say it's time. Every expansion is a decision we make together.

Meet the Team

Your campaign is run by the engineer who built the system, not handed to an account manager. Dimitri runs every account personally - the landing page, the tracking, the daily fine-tuning - while Clayton and Jesse keep onboarding and communication tight. No junior media buyers, no account-manager relay.

Questions worth asking

How much ad spend do I need?

Plan on $1,000-1,500 a month going to Google, on top of our fee. Below that, campaigns collect data too slowly to improve. And expect roughly $1,000 of spend before your first conversion - weeks, not days. Anyone who promises leads in week one is telling you what you want to hear; we'd rather set the honest expectation up front.

Why a flat fee instead of a percentage of ad spend?

Because percentage pricing pays the agency to grow your budget, not your results - every dollar you spend, efficient or wasted, raises their invoice. A flat retainer points our incentive the right way: the only way we keep you is by making your budget produce leads. It's the same reason we never mark up or pass through ad spend.

Who owns the ad account, the landing page, and the data?

You do, from day one. The Google Ads account is yours and Google bills your card directly - your budget never touches our bank account. We manage the account through agency access you can revoke, and if we ever part ways, you keep the account, the landing page, the tracking, and every search term we learned along the way.

Where does AI fit into this?

AI runs our data collection, analysis, and daily fine-tuning tooling, which is how your account gets attention every day at this price - most providers at this rate touch an account somewhere between weekly and monthly. Every judgment call - which keywords to promote, what to pause, where the budget goes - is made by a person. AI buys you more attention, not a cheaper imitation of it.

What are the contract terms?

Month to month from day one - no annual contract, no setup fee to recoup. Founding-client rates are grandfathered for as long as you stay. If you leave, everything we built - the ad account, the landing page, the tracking - stays with you.

Do you run channels other than Google?

Google Search is where we start, because for most businesses it's where buying intent lives. Once your campaign proves it converts, we can layer in Microsoft Ads (clicks often run 30-40% cheaper), ChatGPT ads (we already run them on our own account), and Meta. We add channels when your numbers justify it, not to pad the invoice.
