Professional services PPC requires surgical precision. You are targeting a narrow audience of senior decision-makers with specific needs and high engagement value. Wasting budget on irrelevant clicks is not just costly — it is a missed opportunity to connect with a prospective client at their moment of need.

Cloudswitched manages Google Ads campaigns for consulting firms and professional services businesses across London. We build highly targeted campaigns that reach decision-makers searching for specific expertise, using precise keyword strategies, compelling ad messaging, and sophisticated audience targeting. Every pound of your advertising budget is directed towards generating the qualified enquiries that become profitable client relationships.

Google Ads management for Professional Services

What's included in our Google Ads service

Campaign Strategy & Account Setup

A complete Google Ads strategy built around your goals, audience and budget. We structure your account using best-practice architecture, set up conversion tracking with Google Tag Manager, and configure audience lists for remarketing. Existing accounts get a full audit first to identify wasted spend and quick wins.

Keyword Research & Bid Management

In-depth keyword research mapped to buyer intent with bid strategies that maximise conversions within your budget. Ongoing negative keyword management, match type refinement, device and location bid adjustments, and automated bidding strategy testing ensure every pound works harder.

Ad Copy & Creative

Compelling ad copy written to maximise click-through rates and quality scores. Multiple responsive search ad variations per ad group, systematic headline and description testing, plus full ad extensions -- sitelinks, callouts, structured snippets and call extensions to dominate the results page.

Landing Page Recommendations

We audit your landing pages for conversion rate, page speed, mobile usability and message match -- then provide specific, actionable recommendations. Because we also build websites, we can implement improvements ourselves -- no waiting for a third-party developer.

Conversion Tracking & Analytics

Accurate tracking for form submissions, phone calls and e-commerce transactions using Google Tag Manager, GA4 and Google Ads conversion tags. Enhanced conversions, offline conversion imports and attribution modelling show the true value of your campaigns beyond last-click metrics.

Remarketing & Audience Strategy

Remarketing audiences segmented by behaviour -- page visitors, cart abandoners, past converters and lookalikes -- with tailored creative for each segment. Plus Google's in-market audiences, custom intent targeting and demographic targeting to reach new customers matching your ideal buyer profile.

Competitor & Market Analysis

We monitor competitors' keywords, ad copy, landing pages and estimated spend to find gaps they're missing. Regular auction insights analysis shows how your impression share and outranking share compare, so we can adjust strategy to win more of the clicks that matter.

Monthly Reporting & Strategy Reviews

Detailed monthly reports covering impressions, clicks, conversions, cost per acquisition and return on ad spend -- explained clearly with actionable context. Monthly strategy calls review performance and plan optimisation priorities, with quarterly deep-dives to keep strategy aligned with your goals.

Why Cloudswitched for Google Ads?

We combine deep technical knowledge with data-driven PPC strategy to deliver campaigns that generate real revenue — not just clicks.

IT company, not just an agency

We understand how websites, servers and conversion funnels work at a deep technical level. Our landing pages are fast, our tracking is accurate and our technical implementation goes far beyond what a typical PPC agency delivers.

Fixed fees, not percentage-of-spend

Our management fees are transparent and fixed. We'll never recommend increasing your budget just to inflate our own fees — our incentive is always aligned with getting you the best possible return.

ROAS-focused, not clicks-focused

We measure success by revenue and return on ad spend — not impressions, clicks or other vanity metrics. Every optimisation decision is tied to a clear commercial outcome for your business.

Campaigns and landing pages under one roof

Because we build websites and landing pages in-house, we can create, test and iterate CRO-optimised pages without waiting for a third-party developer. Strategy and execution, completely integrated.

Bulletproof conversion tracking

Accurate tracking is the foundation of every profitable campaign. We set up and validate conversion tracking via Google Tag Manager, ensuring every phone call, form fill and transaction is measured correctly.

Named account manager

No ticket queues or call centres. You get a dedicated account manager who knows your business, your campaigns and your goals inside out — available by phone, email or video call.

No lock-in contracts

We don't tie you into 12-month contracts. Our clients stay because of results, not obligations. Month-to-month agreements with 30 days' notice — we earn your business every single month.

Transparent, honest reporting

Monthly reports in plain English — not jargon-filled PDFs. We show you exactly where every pound went, what it generated and what we're optimising next. Full visibility, no surprises.
