Brightpace is a UK Google Ads agency. We manage Search, Performance Max, Shopping, Demand Gen and YouTube campaigns for businesses across the UK, with tracking set up properly and every account judged on revenue and profit. Founder-led, on 30-day rolling contracts.

Google Ads is where most buying journeys start: people searching for exactly what you sell, at the moment they want it. But the platform is now largely automated. Broad matching, AI Max and Performance Max decide much of where your money goes, and they optimise towards whatever you tell them counts as a result.

That makes the inputs the job: accurate conversion tracking, targets set from your margins, tight negatives and a clear structure. Get those right and automation finds more of your best customers. Get them wrong and it spends quickly on clicks that never turn into sales.

(01) What we run

Google Ads, managed properly.

01

Search & AI Max

Search campaigns built around high-intent keywords, with weekly search term reviews and negative keyword lists. Where it fits, we add AI Max with guardrails, so you reach new searches without losing control.

02

Performance Max

Performance Max with brand exclusions, audience signals and new customer goals, so it finds new demand rather than taking credit for your brand searches. See our Performance Max best practices.

03

Shopping for online shops

Merchant Center feeds and Shopping campaigns structured by margin, so your best products get the budget. More on our Google Shopping service.

04

Demand Gen & YouTube

Video and image ads across YouTube, Discover and Gmail, reaching people before they search. More on YouTube ads.

05

Conversion tracking

The Google tag, enhanced conversions and Consent Mode set up properly, with offline conversions for leads that close later, so Smart Bidding learns from real results. See server-side tracking.

06

Bidding & budgets

Smart Bidding targets set from your margins and lead values, with budgets moved each week to what’s working. Work out your numbers with our ROAS calculator.

(02) How we work

How we run Google Ads.

  1. 01

    Campaigns restructured around what makes you money, with new ads, tighter targeting and advice on your landing pages.

  3. 03

    Optimise every week

    Search terms, negatives, bids, budgets and ads reviewed weekly, with a short report on what each new customer costs.

  • Your accounts, your data

    30-day rolling contracts, and your ad accounts and tracking always stay yours.

(04) Measurement

Measuring what Google Ads really adds.

Google Ads reports every conversion it played a part in, and brand searches make most accounts look better than they are: many of those people would have found you anyway.

We report brand and non-brand separately, show new customers alongside total conversions, and check results against blended numbers such as MER. Where volumes allow, we use Google’s experiments or a geo test. See our guide to lift tests.

More on how we measure: measurement & incrementality testing.

(06) FAQ

Google Ads questions.

Anything else, ask the person who would run your account.

Ask a question →
01What does Google Ads management include?

An account and tracking audit, campaign builds, keyword and search term management, negative keywords, ad writing and testing, bid and budget management, landing page advice, a live daily dashboard, weekly analysis and regular calls, all with the founder.

02How much does Google Ads management cost?

The same as the rest of our management: a monthly fee agreed up front and scaled to your ad spend and scope, with no setup fee and a 30-day rolling contract. Your ad spend is paid directly to Google. See our pricing page for how it works.

03What budget do I need for Google Ads?

There’s no fixed minimum, but Google’s automated bidding needs enough conversions to learn. As a guide, from about £1,500 a month gives a focused search campaign room to work. Our guide to what Google Ads cost in the UK has examples.

04Do you use Performance Max and AI Max?

Yes, where they fit. Both can find extra customers, but they need accurate tracking, brand exclusions and the right targets, or they spend on easy wins you’d have had anyway. We test them against what’s already working and keep what adds profit.

05Will I own my Google Ads account?

Yes. The account, data and tracking stay in your name. We work inside it with the access you give us, and everything stays with you if we part ways.

06How quickly will Google Ads work?

Search campaigns can bring traffic and enquiries within days. Wasted spend and tracking fixes usually show in the first few weeks, and Smart Bidding then needs several weeks of clean data to settle.
