Most Google Ads accounts donβt fail because of budget.
They fail due to structural issues, tracking problems, and wasted spend.

π 1. Campaign Audit

β’ Campaign β Ad Group β Keywords
β’ Match types (Broad / Phrase / Exact)
β’ Separate brand vs non-brand
β’ Clear naming conventions
βοΈ 3. Tracking & Data
Make sure youβre measuring correctly
β’ Conversion tracking (purchases, leads)
β’ Google Tag / GA4 setup
β’ Value-based tracking (ROAS)
