A Google Ads Agency Without the 15% Ad-Spend Fee

Traditional Google Ads agencies charge 15-20% of your media spend — so the more you spend, the more they earn, whether it works or not. Hire a dedicated Google Ads specialist on your team for a flat bi-weekly rate.

Why the traditional agency model works against you

  • Perverse incentives

    Agencies earning 15% of your spend want you to spend more, not spend better. Cutting waste means cutting their own paycheque.

  • You're client #47

    Your account manager handles 30-60 clients. Your campaigns get 20 minutes of attention a week. Optimizations that need daily eyes don't get them.

  • No knowledge transfer

    When you leave the agency, they take everything with them — audiences, ad copy, negatives, learnings. You start over.

What your dedicated Google Ads specialist owns

Full campaign architecture

Search, Performance Max, Shopping, YouTube, Display — structured for your goals with proper naming conventions and shared budgets.

Keyword & audience research

Semrush + Ahrefs + Google Trends analysis. Match-type strategy, negatives lists, in-market and affinity audiences, RLSA layering.

Daily optimization

Search terms review, bid strategy tuning, budget pacing, A/B tests on ads, and landing-page conversion analysis.

Conversion tracking that works

GA4 + GTM + Enhanced Conversions + offline conversions imports. No blind spots, no double-counting.

Weekly reporting rhythm

Looker Studio dashboard, 15-min weekly review call, honest attribution reporting — no vanity metrics.

Everything stays yours

You own the account, the audiences, the copy, the learnings. Your specialist works IN your account, not on top of it.

Flat bi-weekly rate. Not a percentage of your spend.

A dedicated Google Ads specialist, no matter your ad budget. At $30K/month spend, this beats a 15% agency fee by $2,825/month.

Talk to us about a Google Ads specialist
“We were paying our old agency 15% of a $40K/month spend and getting canned monthly reports. Switching to a dedicated GetGuru specialist cut fees by $4K/month AND our CPA dropped 22% in the first quarter because someone was actually watching the account every day.”

Google Ads Specialist — Frequently Asked Questions

Yours. Always. We work as your team, in your Google Ads account, with your MCC access. When (if) you leave, everything stays — the account, the audiences, the negative keyword lists, the historical data. No lock-in.
If your ad spend is $5K/month or more, a dedicated specialist typically pays for itself within 30-60 days through waste reduction and CTR/CPA improvements. Below $5K/month, we can pair the specialist with other marketing work so you're getting full value.
Every specialist on our bench is trained on Search, Performance Max, Shopping/Merchant Center, YouTube, Display, and RLSA/remarketing. Plus conversion tracking setup (GA4, GTM, Enhanced Conversions, offline conversion imports) and Google Merchant Center troubleshooting.
Google Ads specialists focus on Google. If you need paid across Meta or TikTok as well, we recommend either a Marketing Guru who covers all paid channels, or adding a second specialist. Depends on your monthly workload and platform priorities.
Full-time and dedicated. Freelance Google Ads consultants juggle 5-15 accounts and can only give yours a few hours per week. A GetGuru specialist owns your account, is in it daily, and reports to you directly. Plus we back the hire with a 30-day replacement guarantee.
