Frequently Asked Questions

How does this differ from automated audit tools?

Automated tools are great for surface-level checks, but they often miss context, strategy, and nuance. Our PPC audits are manually conducted by experienced strategists who understand platform mechanics, business objectives, and user behaviour. We go beyond metrics—digging into campaign structure, targeting, creative, tracking, and budget efficiency to give you meaningful, actionable insights.

Can you collaborate with our in-house PPC team?

Absolutely. Many of our clients have in-house teams, and we’re happy to work alongside them. You can treat the audit as a one-time strategy piece for your team to action, or we can collaborate closely to support execution, testing, and optimisation. We’re flexible based on your needs and resources.

Is the audit limited to Google Ads?

Not at all. While Google Ads is a common starting point, we also audit Microsoft Ads, Meta Ads (Facebook/Instagram), LinkedIn Ads, and other paid media platforms. If you’re investing budget in a channel, we’ll review performance, structure, and opportunities to maximise results across the board.

What access do you require for the audit?

We typically need read-only access to your ad accounts (e.g. Google Ads, Meta Ads) and supporting tools like Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, and any conversion tracking platforms you use. This ensures we can analyse performance in context and track the full user journey.

Do you assist with implementing the audit recommendations?

Yes. If you’d like support beyond the audit, we offer both Build and Grow services. Whether you need a full account restructure or ongoing optimisation and testing, we can help turn your audit insights into measurable results.

What if I’m already working with an agency?

That’s no problem. Our audit can serve as a second opinion to validate current performance or highlight missed opportunities. We can deliver the insights independently, or work directly with your agency to support improvements—whatever suits your setup best.

How long does a PPC audit take?

Most PPC audits are completed within 1–2 weeks, depending on account size and the number of platforms involved. We’ll give you a timeline upfront and keep communication clear throughout the process.
