Title structure, custom labels, store quality, reviews aggregation, multi-country, and the compliance work most agencies skip because it is tedious.
Tracking that survives iOS
Server-side tagging, Conversions API, enhanced conversions, customer-list sync. The foundation most agencies still have half-broken.
AI ops
AI baked into the daily operating cadence. Reporting, creative iteration, anomaly detection, pattern surfacing every working day.
How we measure
We measure profit per ad dollar. Not just revenue.
Most agency dashboards report ROAS in a vacuum. POAS is what your business actually runs on. We optimise against it, account for product margin, refunds, return rate, and new-versus-repeat customer mix, and show you the cross-channel context every week. ROAS gets reported alongside it for context, never instead of it.
You apply against the qualification gate. Within days we deliver a real audit deliverable: where your account is leaking, what we would fix, and the rebuild plan we would run if you bring us in. The audit is free. The proposal happens inside it.

01
Audit, at depth
Engagement starts here. Full-stack audit on the live account: structure, GMC, feed, creative inventory, tracking, full-funnel impact across every channel. The diagnostic depth most agencies skip because it is tedious.
02
Strategy
Named milestones, asset production schedule, AI ops setup, channel cadence, POAS targets, weekly cross-channel readout. The plan you sign off on. The first rebuild ships inside week one.
03
Scale
Execute, measure, expand. YouTube, Demand Gen, comparison traffic, top-of-funnel informational. Surface area grows. POAS compounds. Reports go out without anyone touching them.

Why Ad-Lab
Six structural differences. Not better marketing.
Most agency websites argue they care more, work harder, or have smarter people. The differences below are structural. they hold whether or not the team has a good week.
01Structural
Performance-priced. No retainers.
Our pricing model is tied to performance. The incentive alignment makes underperformance unprofitable for us, not just disappointing for you.
↳Kills incentive misalignment.
02Structural
Daily writing. Daily public IP.
Patrick publishes one Google Ads piece every working day in The Operator Brief. The same brain inside your account is the one writing what you read first. No other agency in this category writes daily.
↳Kills agency-as-black-box.
03Structural
Six accounts per operator. Capped.
At scaled agencies a buyer touches 12-18 accounts. Yours gets 30 minutes a week. Our cap is structural, written into hiring, and audited monthly.
↳Kills surface-level optimization.
04Structural
Performance-priced. Month-to-month.
We bill against performance, not the calendar. No retainer, no annual lock-in, no exit fee. The only agency in the ecom Google Ads space willing to be paid the same way our clients are.
↳Kills downside risk.
05Structural
Hyper-focus on Google + YouTube.
No Meta. No TikTok. No Amazon. Google Search, Shopping, Performance Max, YouTube Ads, Demand Gen get our entire attention. 99% of agencies dilute across 4-5 platforms.
↳Kills shallow expertise.
06Structural
Same brain end-to-end.
Patrick on strategy. Stephan on delivery. No SDR-to-AE-to-junior-buyer hand-off. The person who closes you is the person inside your account on day 1, day 90, and day 365.
↳Kills the bait-and-switch.

Hear from brands we've scaled.
I hired them about two years ago after being completely sick of agency after agency prom.
Ad-Lab has treated my small business like a large company. My sales have been increasing.
