"Our Google Ads used to work. Now they don't."

I hear this every week. Brands throwing money at keywords, hoping something sticks, while their ROAS bleeds out.

But here's the thing: Google Ads still works. You're just managing it wrong.

The $300K Turnaround Story

Last month, we audited an account spending $25K/month with 0.8x ROAS. Painful.

In 90 days, same budget, 2.4x ROAS. Here's exactly how:

The 4 Checkpoint System

🔍 The 72-Hour Check (Every 3 Days)

  • Budget pacing and allocation

  • Keyword performance vs. 3-5x AOV spend threshold

Most accounts die from neglect, not bad strategy.

The Mistake Everyone Makes

They optimize randomly instead of systematically.

You can't fix what you don't measure consistently. These checkpoints aren't busy work—they're your early warning system for account decay.

Why This Works

Google Ads accounts are like gardens. Skip the maintenance, and weeds take over. Stay consistent with these checkpoints, and you'll catch problems before they cost you thousands.

The brand we helped? They're now scaling to $40K/month with the same ROAS.

Your turn: When did you last audit your search terms?
