Google Ads management
for small businesses.
I set up, run and improve Google Ads campaigns for small businesses across the United States. You work directly with me, you keep full ownership of your account, and every dollar of ad spend goes to Google — not to a markup.
Sound familiar?
If any of these hit home, you're in the right place.
What Google Ads management actually means
Google Ads looks simple from the outside: pick some keywords, write an ad, set a budget. In practice, the default settings are built to spend money, not to make it. Broad keyword matching, automatic placements on partner sites and auto-applied recommendations can quietly send your budget to people who were never going to buy from you.
Management is the ongoing work of keeping that spend pointed at the right people. That means choosing the searches you actually want to appear for, blocking the ones you don't, writing ads that speak to what a customer needs at that moment, and sending clicks to a page that makes it easy to call, book or buy. It also means checking in on the account regularly, because search behavior, competition and costs change all the time.
I take that work off your plate. I build campaigns around how your customers really search, I keep a close eye on what's spending and what's converting, and I make changes based on what the account is telling us — not on what Google would like you to spend.
How I work with small businesses across the US
Everything I do is remote, so it doesn't matter whether you're in Ohio, Texas, Florida or California. We start with a call where I learn how your business makes money: what you sell, who buys it, where you serve, what a good lead looks like and what you can comfortably spend. If you already run ads, I'll look through your account before we talk so the conversation is specific.
From there I set up or rebuild the account the right way: proper conversion tracking so we know which calls, forms and purchases came from ads, tightly grouped campaigns, a solid negative keyword list, location targeting that matches your actual service area and ad schedules that fit your hours. If your landing page is holding things back, I'll tell you exactly what to change, or build a focused page for you.
Once campaigns are live, I review search terms, pause what isn't working, test new ad copy and adjust bids and budgets. You can reach me directly with questions, and I'll explain any change in plain English. No jargon, no hiding behind dashboards.
Who this is a good fit for
I work best with owner-led small businesses that sell a clear service or product and want more calls, bookings or sales from people who are already searching. That includes restaurants, med spas, home service companies and career and trade schools, as well as professional services and local retail.
If you're not sure whether your current account is set up well, a Google Ads audit is a good first step. And if you're weighing a freelancer against an agency, I've written an honest breakdown on the freelance Google Ads manager page.
Every engagement is quoted individually, based on the size of your account, the number of campaigns and how much hands-on work is involved. There are no fixed packages, because no two businesses need exactly the same thing.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work with businesses outside Las Vegas?
Yes. I'm based in Las Vegas, but my Google Ads work is fully remote and I work with small businesses anywhere in the United States.
How much does Google Ads management cost?
Every project gets a custom quote based on your goals, the size of your account and how much ongoing work it needs. Your ad spend is separate and is paid directly to Google — I never mark it up.
Will I own my Google Ads account?
Always. Campaigns run in an account you own. I'm added as a manager, and you can remove my access at any time.
Do I need a minimum ad budget?
There's no fixed minimum, but your budget needs to be realistic for your market. On our first call I'll give you an honest view of whether Google Ads makes sense for you right now.
How quickly will I see results?
Ads can start showing as soon as campaigns are approved, but the first weeks are about learning which searches and ads bring in real customers. I'll be upfront about what to expect for your situation rather than promising a number.
Can you also fix my landing page or website?
Yes. If your page is the weak link, I can recommend specific changes or build a focused landing page so your ad clicks have somewhere good to go.
