MJ Marketing
Google Ads Consulting · Strategy & Sparring

Google Ads Consulting: you have a team in-house and just need the experienced head who'll say honestly what matters for the next 90 days.

Strategic consulting instead of monthly management: as sparring partner, reviewer, or escalation point. Mijo directly, on hourly or sprint basis.

First call free · honest assessment whether I'm the right fit.

What it looks like

Three typical consulting formats.

  1. Format 1

    Strategy sprint (4 weeks)

    Weekly 90-min calls + Slack/email support for a concrete initiative (e.g. new campaign, tracking restructure, platform expansion). Fixed scope, fixed price.

  2. Format 2

    Monthly advisor (ongoing)

    1 strategy call per month (60-90 min) + email support for open questions. Your team executes. I'm the external reviewer and sparring partner.

  3. Format 3

    Ad-hoc hours

    Book consulting hours as needed: no minimum quantity, no commitment. Ideal if you only need a second opinion 2-3 times per quarter.

How consulting runs

Three principles in Google Ads consulting, no slide decks.

01

Preparation

Before each call: you send the question, I look at the relevant data (15-30 min prep). Calls don't start with "tell me the situation again".

02

Direct output

Each call ends with concrete next steps (3-5 actions, prioritised). You get a written summary within 24h. Nothing gets lost in the calendar.

03

Honest assessments

If I think your planned strategy won't work, I'll say so. If I don't know the answer, I say "I don't know", and clarify it by the next call.

Pricing

Transparent. Three formats.

Hourly rate or sprint package, depending on how ongoing the consulting should be. First call always free.

What consulting is NOT

Consulting means strategy, reviews, sparring. Not: I log in and do the optimisation. If you want someone who works on the account weekly, book Google Ads management. Consulting is the format when you or your team handles the execution.

First call

Free, 20 min: honest assessment whether I'm the right fit.

Monthly Advisor

3 months minimum, then cancellable monthly.

Hour tracking

Toggl reports available on request.

What you don't get

Anti-bullshit guarantee for Google Ads consulting.

What others sell as "consulting", and I explicitly don't do:

No 40-slide strategy decks

Strategy is 5 bullet points + decisions. Whoever needs 40 slides usually doesn't know what to recommend and camouflages with volume.

No sales calls disguised as consulting

The first call IS the first call, not a hidden sales pitch. If after the call I say you don't need an agency, I mean it.

No buzzword bingo

No "synergistic customer-centric performance funnel mapping" here. I talk about conversion paths, bid strategies and account structure, in plain language.

No generic industry templates

What works at one SaaS can be nonsense at a practice. Each consulting engagement adapts to your market and your team, not the other way around.

FAQ

Common questions before Google Ads consulting.

First call

20 minutes. We check the fit.

You briefly explain situation and question. I honestly say whether I'm the right fit or you need someone else. If it fits, we agree on a format, if not, the conversation hopefully helps anyway.
