GOOGLE ADS MANAGEMENT
Google Ads is probably the fastest moving, most innovative platform we’ve worked on in the last year…. and we couldn’t be more excited by the ever increasing opportunities it provides.
The platform has come such a long way from the days of purely keyword driven Google Adwords campaigns, the new tools which have been (and continue to be) unpacked over the last year continue to redefine the consumer experience and put the Google ecosystem right at the top of the stack for brands looking to find new, good-fit customers and build a deeper resonance with existing ones. As a Google Partner we’re proud to demonstrate the latest Google Ads expertise.
GOOGLE ADS FOR GROWING E-COMMERCE
In 2023, Google Ads for e-commerce has undergone a remarkable transformation, incorporating innovative features like Performance Max and Demand Generation campaign types, reshaping the online retail landscape.
Performance Max campaigns harness the power of machine learning to optimise advertising strategies, delivering unrivalled ROI, and we believe they are a key part of any e-comm strategy. On the other hand, the newer Demand Generation campaigns open up exciting avenues to create brand awareness and attract new customers alongside the augmented reality-enhanced Shopping ads and personalised targeting.
In this fiercely competitive digital marketplace, Google Ads remains a place where e-commerce investment thrives.

"If someone asked me ‘what decision have you made for your business now that you wish you’d done years ago?,’ it would have been outsourcing Google Ads to Sophie and Julie. The impact of their work has been incredible. As a brand that has been heavily reliant on organic Instagram reach, which is a landscape that’s forever changing and challenging to predict, it’s reassuring and exciting to see how they’ve taken us out of that fragile bubble and into the wider world.
Their knowledge is incredible and it’s been a relief to hand it over to them and to see them take full accountability, giving me more time to look at other areas of my business.
Without a shadow of a doubt their work is absolutely at the core of our business marketing needs from now on.”

QUESTIONS WE’RE FREQUENTLY ASKED ABOUT GOOGLE ADS
-
We’re a Google Partner and pride ourselves on our knowledge of the platform and all campaign types - we will always have a mix of campaigns in any given account but that mix will be bespoke to each brand that we work with.
-
There is no one size fits all answer as this depends on budget, set up, copy, creative, website, conversion tracking and campaign type.
That said, with search and shopping campaigns, (with a tight set up) results should come in within a few days. Data takes time to accumulate and algorithmic learning and campaign maturity can take up to 90 days on the platform, but in our experience with stable returns once matured - patience definitely pays off.
-
For us this is down to a combination of good planning and being nimble in our campaign management. In our planning we’ll become familiar with your business’s seasonal patterns and we’ll analyse historic data and industry trends and adapt budget, creative, copy and keywords accordingly. We’re nimble in our management; monitoring and making real-time adjustments to ensure budget is working as hard as possible.
