PPC Agency: Paid Ads Judged on Revenue, Not Clicks
Vedixx plans, builds and manages paid campaigns across Google and Meta, and is accountable for what the spend returns. Conversion tracking is fixed before budget scales, fees are scope-based rather than a percentage of your spend, and every account is created under your own ownership.
What does a PPC agency do?
A PPC agency plans, builds and manages paid advertising campaigns across search and social platforms, and is accountable for the return on that spend. The work covers keyword and audience research, campaign structure, ad and landing-page testing, bid and budget management, conversion tracking, and reporting that ties advertising spend to revenue rather than to clicks or impressions.
What's included
Conversion tracking first
Before any budget scales, we verify that conversions are recorded accurately and once each. Platforms optimise toward whatever you tell them to; feed them bad data and they will spend efficiently on the wrong outcome.
Account structure
Campaigns organised so budget, intent and reporting align. Most inherited accounts are structured for how they grew historically rather than for how decisions now need to be made.
Search & audience research
Keyword and audience work grounded in commercial intent, plus a negative keyword strategy that keeps you out of queries you would never choose to buy.
Creative & copy testing
Systematic testing of angles rather than tweaking one ad forever. On Meta especially, creative volume is now the primary performance lever.
Landing page alignment
The page has to answer the promise the ad made. We will tell you when the landing page is the constraint, and we can build it — a slow or mismatched page raises your click cost as well as losing the sale.
Revenue reporting
Reporting on cost per acquisition and return on ad spend traced to closed revenue, not a dashboard of impressions that answers no decision.
How a paid account is run
The first step is where most engagements are won or lost. Scaling budget on top of broken tracking is the most expensive mistake in paid media, and it is extremely common.
- 1
Fix tracking
Verify conversions fire once, accurately, and match what the business counts as a sale. Nothing else matters until this holds.
- 2
Structure
Rebuild campaigns so budget follows intent and reporting answers real questions.
- 3
Test
Ads, audiences, offers and landing pages tested deliberately, one variable at a time where volume allows.
- 4
Scale what works
Budget moved toward proven segments; losers paused rather than nursed indefinitely.
- 5
Attribute
Outcomes tied back to source so spend decisions are made on revenue rather than platform-reported conversions.
Where it pays for itself
Spend rising, returns flat
- The problem
- Budget has grown steadily but revenue has not followed. Platform dashboards look healthy while the finance numbers disagree.
- What we build
- A tracking audit to find double-counted or missing conversions, then a search terms and placement review to identify where budget leaks into low-intent traffic.
- The result
- A true cost per acquisition figure, and usually a list of spend that was buying nothing.
Inherited account nobody understands
- The problem
- Campaigns built by three previous agencies, overlapping keywords, paused experiments nobody dares delete, and no documentation.
- What we build
- A structural rebuild around current intent and budget, migrating the conversion history that matters and retiring what does not.
- The result
- An account whose structure explains itself and can be handed to anyone.
Good traffic, poor conversion
- The problem
- Clicks are relevant and cheap, but the landing page converts poorly, so the account looks like an ads problem when it is not.
- What we build
- Landing page alignment to the ad promise, speed work, and a simplified conversion path — measured against the same cost per acquisition target.
- The result
- The same traffic produces more conversions without raising bids.
Launching paid from zero
- The problem
- No account history, no conversion data, and pressure to show results quickly on a limited budget.
- What we build
- A deliberately narrow launch on highest-intent terms and audiences, with tracking built first and budget expanded only as data justifies it.
- The result
- Learning bought efficiently rather than budget spent proving what was already predictable.
How it works
- 1
Audit and fix measurement
Conversion accuracy, attribution settings and platform-to-CRM agreement. Everything downstream depends on this being right.
- 2
Agree the target
A cost per acquisition or return on ad spend figure that works for your margins, so success is defined before spend starts rather than argued about after.
- 3
Rebuild structure
Campaigns organised around intent and budget priority, with negatives and exclusions applied from the start.
- 4
Test systematically
A testing cadence for creative, audiences and landing pages, with enough volume per variant to draw a real conclusion.
- 5
Scale and report
Budget moved toward what clears the target, with reporting that traces spend to revenue.
Typical timeline
| Phase | Duration | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Audit & tracking | 1–2 weeks | Verified conversion tracking, wasted-spend findings and a target CPA or ROAS agreed. |
| Build or rebuild | 1–2 weeks | Restructured campaigns, negatives, audiences and initial creative live. |
| Learning period | 2–4 weeks | Enough conversion data for platform optimisation and early performance judgements. |
| Optimisation | Ongoing | Testing cadence, budget reallocation and revenue reporting. |
Percentage of ad spend vs scope-based fees
How an agency charges shapes the advice it gives. This is worth understanding before you sign anything, including with us.
| Percentage of ad spend | Scope-based fee | |
|---|---|---|
| Incentive created | Recommending more spend increases the fee. | Advice to pause or cut a channel costs the agency nothing. |
| Cost predictability | Rises automatically as budget grows. | Fixed against agreed scope; changes only when the work does. |
| Efficiency gains | Cutting wasted spend reduces the agency’s own fee. | Efficiency is rewarded rather than penalised. |
| Best for | Very large accounts where management effort genuinely scales with spend. | Most businesses, and anyone who wants candid advice about budget. |

Systems we connect
Who this is for
E-commerce
Shopping and Performance Max campaigns where feed quality often matters more than bidding.
B2B & SaaS
Long cycles needing offline conversion import so the platform optimises toward closed deals, not form fills.
Professional services
High-value, low-volume lead generation where a single conversion justifies a high cost per click.
Local services
Geographic targeting and call tracking where the phone matters more than the form.
Education
Intake-deadline campaigns with sharp seasonal peaks and troughs.
Real estate
Area-targeted lead generation with fast follow-up requirements.
What drives the cost
Two costs are separate and often confused: the media budget you pay the platforms, and the fee you pay for management. We quote the second against scope, so growing your budget does not automatically grow our fee.
Number of platforms
One search account is straightforward. Search, shopping, Meta and LinkedIn together means four sets of structure, creative and reporting.
Account complexity
Product count, geographies, languages and campaign types all multiply the work of managing and reporting on an account.
State of tracking
If measurement is broken or absent, fixing it is a phase in its own right — and it is not optional.
Creative production
Meta in particular consumes creative. Whether you supply it or we produce it materially changes scope.
Landing page work
If pages need building or rebuilding, that sits alongside campaign management rather than inside it.
Reporting depth
Platform reporting is free; tracing spend to closed revenue in your CRM takes integration work worth doing once.
Account audit
A review of structure, wasted spend, tracking and quick wins. Findings are yours regardless of what follows.
Build & launch
Tracking, structure and campaigns built from scratch or rebuilt, then handed over or managed.
Ongoing management
Continuous testing, optimisation and reporting at a fee tied to scope rather than spend.
What you end up with
- Conversion tracking you can actually trust
- A cost per acquisition target agreed before spend scales
- Wasted spend identified and cut rather than absorbed
- Campaign structure that explains itself to anyone
- Reporting tied to revenue, not impressions
- Ad accounts owned by you, with the history intact
Key takeaways
- Fix conversion tracking before scaling budget. Platforms optimise efficiently toward whatever you measure, including the wrong thing.
- Percentage-of-spend pricing rewards an agency for recommending more spend. Understand the incentive before you sign.
- The search terms report is where most wasted spend hides. Read it regularly.
- A landing page mismatch raises your click cost as well as losing the sale — it is an ads problem, not just a website one.
- Own your ad accounts. The conversion history is an asset you should not have to leave behind.
