Different time windows. Same local-service account. Specific improvements.

Rather than average the whole account, we isolate dated periods where performance materially improved. The comparisons below are selective, anonymised and tied to the stated time windows.

These are period comparisons, not a claim that every month or every client performs this way. Individual results vary by demand, budget, tracking, competition and offer.

The problem is structural. The opportunity is real.

Most businesses losing organic traffic to AI Overviews are not replacing it with anything. Paid search fills that gap -- if it is run properly. Most accounts are not.

Previsible, 2025

Most businesses losing organic traffic to AI Overviews are not replacing it with anything. That is the problem.

Paid search fills that gap -- if it is run properly. Most accounts are not.

We build accounts to generate leads, not to look good in a dashboard. Flat fee. No percentage of spend. No spend caps. No junior staff. Every account managed personally. Results are the only retention tool we have.

What we do

Most PPC agencies are built around managing clients. This is built around managing accounts. There is a difference.

The Demand Discovery Process

Before a single pound of budget goes to Google, we already know what your buyers are searching for, when they search for it, and exactly which terms are most likely to convert into revenue.

We pull demand signals from People Also Ask, People Also Search, and Google Keyword Planner -- then cross-reference 12 months of historical search volume data to identify hundreds of high-intent commercial keywords. The ones with buying signal. The ones your competitors are guessing at.

Then we ramp spend deliberately. Month one is controlled -- £1 to £3 per day. The account feeds on clean, high-intent data from the start. Irrelevant search terms are blocked before they drain the budget. By month two, you have proven terms and a clean account structure. Month three onwards, full budget deployed against terms you already know convert.

Most accounts waste 20 to 35% of their budget in the first 90 days. This process eliminates that waste before it happens.

The demand discovery process starts before we spend anything.

We identify hundreds of buying-intent keywords using People Also Ask, People Also Search, and 12 months of historical search demand data before the account goes live. You know what to push and when to push it. No guessing. No waste in month one.

24/7 optimisation at a speed and scale manual checking cannot match.

API-assisted monitoring can surface changes across search terms, bids, budgets, negatives, targeting and ad performance continuously. That lets me review material issues quickly, rewrite ads around changing demand and implement approved improvements without waiting for a monthly account audit.

We ramp spend deliberately so the account feeds on clean data from day one.

Month one: £1 to £3 per day. Controlled ramp. High-intent terms only. Irrelevant search terms blocked immediately. Month two: proven terms, clean structure, budget scaled with confidence. Month three onwards: full budget deployed against terms with a conversion track record. The 20 to 35% wasted in most unmanaged accounts is eliminated before it is ever spent.

Flat fee. No percentage. Ever.

A percentage agency earns more when you spend more. That is a conflict of interest baked into the model. Fixed fee means the work is done properly because it is the right thing to do for the account -- not because the budget crossed a threshold that triggers their margin.

Microsoft Ads live within one week. Same keywords. 42% lower CPCs.

We import your Google campaigns directly into Microsoft Advertising, apply the negative keyword framework, and have you live on Bing within one week of instruction. CPCs average 42% lower than Google. B2B decision-makers are over-represented on Bing. Your competitors are mostly ignoring it. That is the opportunity.

Search-first. Full transparency. Every penny accounted for.

No Performance Max black box. No broad match without controls. Every penny traced to a specific keyword. You see what ran, what converted, what was cut, and exactly why. That is the only way an account should be run.

One call. One report. Nothing else.

Monthly strategy call and a clear report showing what happened and what changed. No approval loops. No status updates. No weekly check-ins requesting your input on decisions that should already be made. You run your business. We run your account.

You own the account, the data, and the history. Always.

Your account. Your keywords. Your 12 months of demand data. Your conversion history. Three-month start then rolling monthly. Exit on 30 days notice. Take everything with you. Retained because the numbers work, not because of a clause.

27 years of search expertise, supported by API-assisted analysis and continuous monitoring across paid search. Demand discovery identifies stronger commercial intent; senior human review controls search terms, negatives, targeting, ad copy, budgets and commercial decisions. Microsoft Ads can run alongside Google Ads, and the flat fee means our incentive is your results, not a percentage of media spend.

Lower CPCs -- More Budget to Deploy

Bing CPCs average 42% lower than Google across all industries. In UK sectors like legal and home services -- where Google CPCs run £5–£9 -- Bing delivers the same commercial intent at £2–£4. Lower CPC means more coverage for the same budget.

LinkedIn Targeting -- Google Cannot Do This

Microsoft owns LinkedIn. Bing Ads lets you layer LinkedIn professional data -- job title, company size, industry, seniority -- onto search campaigns. For B2B, this means reaching the decision-maker, not just anyone searching the same term.

Import Google Campaigns in Minutes

Microsoft Advertising imports directly from Google -- keywords, ad copy, ad groups, bids. We handle the import, apply our negative keyword framework, and have you live within days. Most accounts can be running on Bing within one week of instruction.

A Hedge Against Google CPC Inflation

Google CPCs rose 29% YoY in B2B in 2025 (Dreamdata). Allocating 15–25% of search budget to Bing reduces blended CPA by 18–30% without reducing reach. Your competitors are ignoring Bing. That is the opportunity.
