What Beespoke manages in Google Ads
The engagement begins with the offer, target companies, buying roles, sales economics and evidence that a prospect should believe. We then translate that commercial definition into a paid-search structure with reviewable targeting, ads, destinations and measurement.
Scope can include account audit, campaign architecture, keyword and query research, negative-keyword governance, ad copy, landing-page recommendations, conversion tracking, weekly optimization and reporting. The agreed statement of work should identify who owns implementation, creative, website changes and CRM access.
- Commercial and account diagnosis
- Search-intent and keyword architecture
- Ad-group, copy and landing-page alignment
- Negative-keyword and query-quality review
- Conversion and qualification measurement
- Budget, bid and experiment governance
Test the three controls before increasing spend
A B2B Google Ads account is ready to scale only when intent, measurement and economics can be inspected together.
Map the purchased search term to an accepted intent, ad promise, landing page and exclusion decision.
Keep inquiries, held meetings, accepted opportunities and customers separate, with a named source of truth.
Model the full path from click cost to gross profit and define a stop, revise or scale threshold.
If one control is missing, more budget creates more uncertainty rather than a stronger acquisition system.
Start with unit economics, not traffic
A click is useful only when the economics can support the path from visit to qualified opportunity and customer. Before choosing a budget, model average click cost, landing-page conversion, lead acceptance, opportunity creation, win rate, gross profit and the delay between click and revenue.
Use pessimistic, expected and optimistic cases. If the expected model works only when every rate is unusually strong, the campaign is not ready to scale. A smaller controlled test can still answer whether the search terms, offer and landing page create credible sales conversations.
Build campaigns around distinct search intent
Do not place every relevant phrase into one campaign and send every visitor to the same page. Separate category demand, problem-aware research, use cases, competitor evaluation and brand traffic when they require different promises or destinations.
Google supports broad, phrase and exact keyword matching. The right mix depends on data volume, bidding, regulatory constraints and the cost of irrelevant traffic. Search-term review and negative-keyword controls remain essential because the query that triggered an ad—not the planned keyword label—shows what was actually purchased.
| Search intent | Example theme | Destination job | Primary quality check |
|---|---|---|---|
| Category | B2B workflow platform | Explain fit and differentiation | Qualified conversion rate |
| Problem | Reduce manual compliance reviews | Teach and establish relevance | Assisted and later-stage progression |
| Use case | Workflow software for regional teams | Show the exact operating scenario | Accepted lead rate |
| Alternative | Alternative to legacy process software | Support comparison without invented claims | Opportunity creation |
| Brand | Company or product name | Help known buyers take the next step | Incrementality and conversion quality |
Measure the events sales can verify
Configure primary and secondary conversions deliberately. A calendar view, button click, form submission, booked meeting, held meeting, accepted opportunity and closed customer are different events. Optimizing to the easiest event can make platform results improve while commercial quality deteriorates.
Where sales cycles allow it, return downstream qualification or opportunity data to the measurement system and inspect results by campaign, query, landing page and segment. Keep platform-attributed conversions, analytics sessions and CRM outcomes reconcilable without pretending that one system proves perfect causality.
Use a controlled optimization rhythm
Early work should focus on measurement validity, query relevance, spend concentration and conversion-path failures. Later work can test match-type expansion, bidding, copy, landing-page propositions and new intent clusters when the account has enough reliable evidence.
A useful weekly review names what changed, why it changed, the evidence used and when the decision will be revisited. Avoid making several structural changes at once when the result needs to teach the team something.
- Review search terms and exclusions
- Check conversion quality and tracking anomalies
- Compare spend with qualified outcomes
- Inspect ad-to-page message continuity
- Record experiments and decision dates
- Protect a clean baseline before scaling
Pricing and engagement minimum
Beespoke bills inbound services at $99 per hour with a minimum commitment of 10 hours per week. The weekly minimum provides enough capacity for diagnosis, implementation, measurement and a useful optimization cycle.
Media spend, third-party software, data, creative production and website development are separate unless the written scope includes them. Account access, responsibilities, weekly allocation and approval boundaries are agreed before work begins.
When B2B PPC fits—and when it does not
Google Ads is most useful when identifiable buyers already search for the category, problem or use case; the offer can support paid acquisition; the website can explain the next step; and sales can report lead quality. It can also provide fast evidence while an organic program compounds.
It is a weak first move when search demand is absent, the category requires education before anyone searches, customer value cannot support the click economics, the destination is not credible, or nobody can distinguish a qualified inquiry from a form fill. In those cases, improve the offer, measurement or demand strategy before scaling media.
How to evaluate a B2B PPC agency
Ask every finalist to explain one hypothetical account using the same commercial brief. Strong answers connect structure and optimization to the buyer, sales process and economics.
| Decision area | Strong evidence | Warning sign |
|---|---|---|
| Commercial model | Break-even assumptions and accepted outcome definitions | Traffic or lead volume without sales economics |
| Campaign architecture | Intent map tied to ads and destinations | One large keyword list and one generic landing page |
| Query control | Search-term review and documented exclusions | Automation with no inspectable query governance |
| Measurement | Separate events reconciled with CRM outcomes | Every button click treated as a lead |
| Optimization | Experiment log with hypotheses and decision dates | Frequent unexplained changes |
| Ownership | Client retains account, data and history | Provider-controlled account or unclear handover |
Frequently asked questions
What does a B2B PPC agency do?
A B2B PPC agency plans and manages paid-search acquisition: commercial diagnosis, keyword and search-intent architecture, ads, landing-page alignment, conversion measurement, query controls, bidding, experiments and reporting. Exact scope should be written before access is granted.
Is PPC the same as Google Ads?
PPC describes an advertising payment model in which advertisers commonly pay per click. Google Ads is a platform that supports paid search and other campaign types. This Beespoke service page focuses primarily on B2B Google Search campaigns.
How much does Beespoke charge for Google Ads management?
Beespoke bills inbound services at $99 per hour with a minimum commitment of 10 hours per week. Google Ads media spend, third-party software, data, creative production and website development are separate unless included in the written scope.
How much should a B2B company spend on Google Ads?
There is no responsible universal budget. Start from click costs, addressable search demand, conversion and qualification rates, win rate, customer economics and the amount needed to learn. Separate media spend, management fees, creative, landing-page work and software.
Does Beespoke guarantee leads or revenue from Google Ads?
No. Beespoke can manage the system and define decision rules, but demand, competition, offer strength, website conversion, buyer timing and sales execution affect outcomes. Forecasts and hypothetical examples are planning tools, not guarantees.
