Google Ads Spend Audit: Stop Losing Money on Your Campaigns
Most businesses scrutinise every dollar they spend on Google Ads — but almost no one verifies what they’re actually being charged.
Are you paying exactly what Google charged plus their agreed margins, or are you paying more than you should?
Many businesses never compare their Google Ads invoices against the advertising charges they receive from their agency. Hidden markups exist behind fancy looking portals, intransparent management fee structures, billing discrepancies, currency conversion differences and reporting inconsistencies can quietly erode your marketing budget year after year.
PPC Audit Guy exists to uncover those hidden budgets.
We Find Money Hidden Inside Your Google Ads Spend
Our independent audit follows a simple three-step process.
1. Unearth Hidden Financial Mismatches
A forensic review of your Google Ads account, invoices and billing records — surfacing markups, currency/tax inconsistencies, duplicate costs and unexplained charges.
Find every dollar that shouldn’t have been charged.
2. Recover Your Money
We help you work with your current or previous marketing partner to recover excessive charges wherever possible, backed by documented evidence.
No guesswork. Just clear financial evidence.
3. Reinvest to Scale Growth
Recovered funds shouldn't sit idle. We help businesses strategically reinvest them into higher-performing Google Ads campaigns.
Stop wasting budget — scale with confidence.
If We Can't Deliver at Least 10 Times the Value of Our Fee, You Don't Pay.
