I build full Google prospecting systems for DTC brands: Shopping, Performance Max, Search and Demand Gen, engineered to become your second growth channel, not a brand-search tax.
You're profitable on Meta, but Google feels like a black box that only prints on your own brand name. Here's what's actually happening inside most accounts I audit:
One big Performance Max campaign "at 4x ROAS", except half of it is people already searching your brand name. Strip that out and cold traffic is barely breaking even.
Product titles written for humans, not for the auction. Google matches products to queries through your feed. A weak feed means you're not even entering the auctions that matter.
No Demand Gen, no creative angles, no cold-traffic funnels. Google has YouTube, Discover and Gmail inventory that performs like Meta's best placements, and almost nobody uses it properly.
This is the structure I deploy on every account. Each engine has one job, clean measurement, and no overlap with your brand traffic.
Performance Max as your #1 prospecting engine, kept strictly off brand traffic so you see its real performance.
Tight, high-intent Search campaigns on the queries where people are ready to buy: yours and your competitors'.
Your Meta-winning angles, rebuilt for YouTube, Shorts, Discover and Gmail. It's the closest thing Google has to Meta's feed, at lower CPMs.
Real numbers, pulled straight from accounts I manage today, with brand and non-brand traffic always measured separately. Blended-only reporting is how accounts lie to you.
Monthly budget went from ~$11k to ~$35k between April and June, with blended ROAS holding at 4.0-4.4x while scaling. PMax prospecting alone returned 4.1x over the last 90 days, with brand traffic isolated in its own campaigns.
€118k of the last 90 days' €125k spend went to cold traffic, returning €361k in attributed revenue. The engine: PMax split by customer angle (one campaign per avatar) plus high-intent Search on category terms, with brand ring-fenced separately.
Across every account I currently manage: roughly $230k invested over the last 90 days returned $810k+ in tracked conversion value: a 3.5x blended ROAS, with over 90% of spend on non-brand traffic. Pulled straight from the accounts, not a slide deck.
No 12-month lock-ins. We start with the truth about your account, fix the foundations, then scale what works.
I split your brand vs non-brand performance, audit your feed, structure and measurement, and show you exactly where money is leaking, with a prioritized fix list.
Week 1Feed rebuilt, PMax de-branded and restructured, Search intent campaigns launched, tracking cleaned up. The foundations most agencies never touch.
Weeks 2-5Demand Gen goes live with creative angles from your Meta learnings. We scale budgets on a fixed cadence, kill losers fast, and compound what wins.
