The creative testing framework I use for every Meta Ads account

Targeting is mostly automated now. What you show decides your results. Here is the weekly rhythm I use to find winning ads without burning the budget.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Something else? Ask me directly.

Why work with a freelancer instead of an agency?

Because the person who audits your account is the same person who builds, runs and optimises it. At most agencies, a senior strategist wins the pitch and a junior account manager handles the day-to-day. With me there are no hand-offs, no layers and no one learning on your budget. I've been running paid ads since 2018 and have managed over €1M in ad spend, and you get that experience on every decision, every week.

What happens in the free audit?

Send me your website, the problem you're facing and what you want to achieve. With read-only access, I review your ad accounts, conversion tracking, landing pages and checkout, and then send you a written PDF report: where budget is leaking, what to fix and how to improve it, plus 3 quick wins you can implement right away. It's free and there's no obligation. If you'd like to go through it together live, you can book a 1:1 consulting session (249 €). Many businesses simply implement the findings themselves.

How much should I spend on ads?

It depends on your margins, average order value and how competitive your market is, so I won't quote a number blindly. The budget has to be large enough for the platforms to gather data and optimise, usually enough to reach at least a few conversions per week. In the audit I'll give you a recommended starting budget based on your numbers. Ad spend is always paid directly to Google, Meta or TikTok, never through me.

What do the packages include, and what do they cost?

Channel Management (449 € / month) covers one paid channel, Google Ads or Meta Ads, fully managed: tracking setup, campaign structure, weekly optimisation and a monthly report. Full-Funnel Growth (from 999 € / month) connects paid ads, SEO and email marketing into one system, with landing-page improvements and bi-weekly strategy calls. The 1:1 consulting session (249 €) is for teams that run their ads in-house and want an expert review and a clear action plan.

How soon will I see results?

Quick wins found in the audit, such as broken tracking, wasted search terms or poor targeting, often show within the first weeks. Campaigns then need a learning phase for the algorithms to stabilise, so reliable, scalable performance usually builds over 2–3 months. SEO is a longer game: expect meaningful organic growth over 3–6 months. I'll always tell you honestly what to expect before we start.

Can you guarantee results?

No honest marketer can. Results depend on more than the ads: your website UX, checkout process, pricing, profitability, average order value, B2B or B2C model, and how established your business is. What I do guarantee is a transparent process, clean tracking, decisions based on real data, and reporting on what matters: leads, sales, cost per acquisition and ROAS, not impressions or likes.

Which industries and business types do you work with?

Mostly eCommerce brands (fashion, beauty, toys, home & deco, building materials, B2B wholesale) and service businesses that live on leads, such as construction, renovation, roofing, airport parking and chauffeur services. I work with B2C and B2B companies across Europe, the UK and the USA, with all collaboration done remotely.

Do I keep ownership of my ad accounts and data?

Always. I work inside your own Google Ads, Meta Business Manager, TikTok, Google Analytics and email accounts, and you simply grant me access. If we ever stop working together, every campaign, audience, pixel and piece of historical data stays with you. Nothing is locked into an agency account.

Is there a long-term contract?

No long lock-ins. I ask for an initial 90 days, the time campaigns realistically need to learn, stabilise and show their true potential. After that, we continue month-to-month, and you stay because it's working, not because a contract says so.

How do we communicate, and how often will I get updates?

Directly with me, mainly on WhatsApp or email, so you're never waiting days for an answer from an account manager. You'll get clear, plain-language reports focused on revenue, leads and cost per acquisition, plus regular strategy calls depending on your package. If something important changes in your account, you'll hear it from me first.

Do you also create the ad creatives and landing pages?

I handle creative strategy: which angles, hooks, formats and offers to test, and I write ad copy and landing-page recommendations. For Meta and TikTok I set up a structured creative testing framework so we always know what's working. Visual production (photos, videos, design) can come from your team or from specialists I work with, depending on your budget.

Find out where your ad budget is leaking.

Send me a message with your website and monthly ad spend. I'll reply within one business day with the three biggest wins I see — free, no obligation.
