The Google Ads management your agency promised you.

From audit to optimization to reporting — everything a premium agency delivers, with the transparency and responsiveness most agencies can't match.

Account Audit & Strategy

Before we touch a single bid, we learn your business. We audit your full account, assess your competitive landscape, and build a management strategy around your specific goals — not a template.

  • Full account and competitor audit within 48 hours
  • Custom strategy built around your revenue goals
  • Wasted spend and missed opportunities identified upfront

Conversion Tracking & Landing Pages

Your ads are only as good as what happens after the click. We set up and monitor your conversion tracking, and build high-converting landing pages so your ad spend turns into revenue.

  • Phone calls, forms, and sales tracked from click to close
  • Dedicated landing pages built for your campaigns
  • Ongoing monitoring so tracking never breaks silently

Campaign Build & Management

Keyword research, ad copy, audience targeting, bid strategies, and campaign structure — all built and managed by specialists who work across Search, Shopping, and Performance Max.

  • Keyword strategy based on your actual search data
  • Ad copy written and tested for your market
  • Campaigns optimized across all Google Ads formats

Daily Optimization

Every day, we review search terms, adjust bids, refine negative keywords, and pace your budget — so your account performs at its peak, not just on the days someone remembers to check it.

  • Wasteful search terms caught and blocked daily
  • Bids adjusted based on real-time performance data
  • Budget paced to maximize results all month

Competitor Intelligence

Know exactly who you're competing against, what they're spending, and where they're winning. We monitor auction insights and market shifts so you're never caught off guard.

  • Auction insight monitoring across all your campaigns
  • Alerts when competitors change strategy or increase spend
  • Opportunities to capture share they're leaving behind

Reporting & Communication

Daily performance summaries in plain English, delivered to your inbox. Revenue attribution that shows which campaigns drive results. And when you have a question, we're a message away.

Our team has spent years inside Google Ads accounts — scaling companies from zero to eight-figure revenue. We built Alden because we saw how much the agency model was failing businesses like yours.

We're not career consultants or ex-agency project managers. We're operators who built and scaled real businesses using paid search as a primary growth channel. We've managed millions in ad spend, navigated every Google Ads policy change and algorithm update, and learned — through our own budget — what actually moves the needle.

We built Alden to give every business access to the level of Google Ads management that used to require a six-figure agency retainer or an in-house team you can't afford.

Common questions

Everything a top Google Ads agency does — and then some. Your dedicated account manager handles campaign audits, bid optimization, ad copy testing, keyword research, negative keyword management, budget allocation, and performance reporting. We also build and optimize landing pages to make sure your traffic actually converts. AI amplifies our team's abilities, letting us optimize continuously instead of checking in once a month.

Most agencies check your account once or twice a month, manage dozens of clients with the same junior team, and charge $1,500+ plus a percentage of your spend for the privilege. At Alden, you get a dedicated account manager backed by AI that monitors and optimizes your account every day — not monthly. Senior-level strategy with real-time execution, full transparency into every change we make, and no long-term contracts.

A real, dedicated account manager with years of Google Ads experience. Every account has a human point of contact who knows your business, your goals, and your account inside and out. AI just amplifies our abilities — it lets us run continuous audits, catch wasted spend in real time, and test at a pace no team could match alone. But every strategy decision and every client conversation has an experienced human behind it.

5% of your monthly ad spend, with a $500/mo minimum. So if you're spending $25K on ads, you pay $1,250/mo. If you're spending $5K, you pay $500/mo. No setup fees, no contracts, cancel anytime. Compare that to the typical agency charging $1,500–$3,000/month plus 10–20% of spend with a 6-month lock-in.

Yes. A great Google Ads campaign is worthless if it sends traffic to a weak landing page. We build high-converting landing pages tailored to your campaigns — so your ad spend actually turns into revenue, not just clicks to your homepage.

Most clients see measurable improvements within the first two weeks. We start with a full account audit to identify and eliminate wasted spend, which often produces immediate savings. From there, optimization compounds — month two is typically better than month one, and your account manager will walk you through the results every step of the way.

Run us side by side. Let us audit your account and compare what we find to what your agency has been doing. If we can't improve on their work, you've lost nothing. Many of our clients started exactly this way — comparing our audit to their agency's monthly report and realizing how much was being left on the table.

Never without your say-so. Every new client starts with a review process — your account manager walks you through proposed changes before anything goes live. As we build trust, you can choose to let us handle routine optimizations like bid adjustments and negative keywords on our own, while keeping approval required for bigger moves like budget changes or new campaigns. You're always in control.

Yes. No contracts, no cancellation fees, no 30-day notice periods. Most agencies lock you in for 3–6 months minimum — we don't. If you cancel, your Google Ads account keeps running with every optimization already in place. Nothing gets reverted or broken.

Yes. Performance Max hides 20–80% of search term data from advertisers, which means most agencies are flying blind on a big chunk of your spend. We dig into asset group performance, audience signals, and the search terms Google does surface to identify wasted spend and optimization opportunities that other agencies overlook.

Stop overpaying. Stop guessing. Start growing.
