Quick estimate

How much could be sitting in the wrong place?

Move the sliders. It's a rough sum, not a promise — the free review tells you the real number.

  • Search terms drifting off-intent
  • Audiences overlapping and bidding against each other
  • Conversions double-counted or missing
  • Creative running long past fatigue
  • Budget split by habit, not by margin

How we report

Every two weeks. One page. No noise.

01
Enough data to mean something

One week of conversions is often too few to separate a real change from noise — especially when sales land days after the click.

02
Bidding gets time to settle

Smart bidding needs roughly 1–2 weeks to re-learn after a change. Judging after 7 days leads to undoing changes that were working.

03
More hours in your account

Less time formatting reports means more time actually improving the campaigns.

04
Urgent things don't wait

Tracking breaks, a spend spike, a stock-out — you hear from us the same day, not in the next report.

Before you ask.

Something else on your mind? Ask us directly.

The senior specialists you meet on the first call. Nobody else logs in.

One page every two weeks — what changed, what it did, what's next — plus a short call. Two weeks gives enough data to judge changes fairly; anything urgent you hear the same day.

A look at structure, search terms, tracking and creative, and a written summary of what we'd fix first. No obligation.

We work best from roughly €3k/month in ad spend. 60 days to start, month to month after.

Read-only access for the review. Full access only once we agree to work together.
