Account Leaks

Where Google Ads usually leaks money

Three common places ad spend gets wasted before most businesses notice.

ISSUE

Loose Search Terms

Wasted spend from irrelevant searches

Broad match keywords can pull in traffic that clicks but never becomes a real lead.

Fix: tighten match types, negatives, and search term reviews

Conversions may be misconfigured or tracking is incomplete.
ISSUE

Broken Tracking

Optimising for the wrong signals

If conversions are misconfigured, Google learns from weak events instead of real enquiries.

Fix: clean conversion setup and proper lead tracking

Quality Home Improvements

We offer a range of home improvement services throughout the UK.

  • Reliable service
  • Competitive prices

ISSUE

Poor Landing Page Intent

Good clicks, weak conversion intent

Paid traffic lands on pages with unclear offers, weak calls to action, or no call tracking.

Fix: clearer messaging, stronger CTA, and better landing flow
These are the top three loss points I see in accounts — fix them, and your budget starts working harder.
Real Performance

Best fit for Google Ads

Where Google Ads works best
(and where it doesn’t)

I’m upfront about what will and won’t work. It saves time and gets better results.

Works well for

Businesses with clear search demand

People are already searching for your service on Google.

Companies that can track results

I can measure calls, forms and bookings to optimise what works.

Services worth £300+ per customer

Ensures there’s enough value to scale profitably.

Businesses ready to improve

Landing pages, offers and follow-up make a huge difference to results.

Not ideal for

Very low-margin products or services

Little room to afford clicks and generate profit.

Businesses with no clear search demand

If nobody searches for it, ads won’t help.

Companies unwilling to track results

Without tracking, you’re flying blind and results suffer.

Campaigns with tiny budgets

Expectations need to align with realistic budgets for meaningful results.

The right fit drives results. The wrong fit wastes time and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got Questions? I’ve Got Answers.

Everything you need to know about working with me. Still got a question? Ask it in the form below.

What’s included in the free Google Ads audit?
A full written review of your Google Ads account. Reply with your audit within 24 hours. It covers account structure, keyword strategy, ad copy, landing page recommendations, conversion tracking accuracy, and wasted spend. No obligation, no upsell, yours to keep.
What budget do I need to start?
There’s no fixed minimum but most clients start at £1,000+/month in ad spend. I’ll advise based on your goals and market.
How much does Google Ads management cost with PositionWorks?
Four plans: Core at £295/month for accounts spending up to £1,500/m, Performance at £595/month for £1,500 to £5,000/m (most popular), Growth at £895/month for £5,000 to £10,000/m, and Strategic from £1,295/month for £10,000+/m. All plans include account management, weekly or monthly optimisation, conversion tracking and reporting. The £695 setup fee is included when you commit to the 3-month initial term, and only becomes payable if you cancel early. See the UK Google Ads Benchmark Report 2026 for cost-per-lead expectations by vertical.
Are there long term contracts?
No long term contracts. There’s a 3-month initial start period, then it becomes monthly rolling and you can cancel any time with 30 days’ notice.
What if my results don’t improve in the first 90 days?
That’s exactly what the 90 Day Promise covers. If I haven’t moved at least one of your three core metrics — cost per conversion, conversion volume or ROAS — in your favour within the first 90 days, you get the next month of management free while I keep working. See the 90 Day Promise page for the full terms.
I’m currently with another agency. How does a takeover work?
I handle the transition end to end. Once you give 30 days notice to your current agency I pick up access to your existing Google Ads, GA4 and tracking. I never wipe your account or campaigns without your sign-off. The first month is usually audit and stabilise rather than rebuild, so you don’t lose performance during the swap.
Do you actually do the work yourself or is it outsourced?
All Google Ads work is done by the founder, Simon Smith, in-house in the UK. No offshore teams, no junior account managers learning on your account, no white labelling. You speak directly with the specialist running your campaigns every time.
Do I own my Google Ads account?
Yes, always. You own your account, your data and your campaigns. You keep full access at all times.
What industries does PositionWorks work with?
UK businesses across trades and home improvement (electricians, plumbers, builders, roofers), professional services (accountants, solicitors, consultants), healthcare and clinics, property and lettings, and B2B services.
