Senior PPC Strategist · Google Ads · Local lead generation

I turn ad spend into booked jobs, and prove it to the dollar.

7+ years running Google Ads for local, call-driven businesses in the US, UK and Australia. I build the whole system behind the ads: conversion tracking in GTM, landing pages in GoHighLevel, CRM lead routing and Looker Studio reporting that shows revenue, not just clicks.

Paid search for local, call-driven businesses.

Dental practices, car rental and home services share the same economics as plumbing: high-value jobs, urgent search intent, and phones that need to ring.

Closed-loop tracking & CRM

From ad click to booked job, every step tracked.

I connect ad platforms to the CRM with webhooks, form triggers and tracking pixels, so each lead is tagged with its source, routed instantly, and followed through the pipeline to the final sale.

How I'd start

My first 30 days on a plumbing account.

Days 1–10 · Audit & tracking
  • Verify every conversion: calls, forms, LSA leads and bookings.
  • Fix GTM and call tracking so each lead ties to a campaign.
  • Match leads to booked jobs in the CRM to find true cost per booked job.
Days 11–20 · Cut waste
  • Search-term and negative keyword clean-up.
  • Shift budget to the services, zips and hours that book profitable jobs.
  • Tighten LSA categories and service areas; dispute bad leads.
Days 21–30 · Scale what works
  • Test landing pages built for each service.
  • Feed booked-job values back to Google for smarter bidding.
  • A plain-English Looker Studio report the owner actually reads.
