What practical account advice looks like
Before more spend.Better answers.
A useful review connects an observation with the evidence, the proposed change and a way to check it. Here is what that can look like.
Illustrative audit example
These recommendations show how an account review could be structured for a hypothetical GTA service business. They are sample deliverables, not a client case study or a claim of results.
Inquiries arrive from areas the business does not serve.
A lead has little practical value when the requested location falls outside your service area.
Compare campaign location options, geographic reports and the locations recorded in real inquiries. Confirm the service area with the business before changing targeting.
Align location settings, exclusions and page messaging with where the business can actually deliver.
Check: review subsequent inquiry locations and qualified lead feedback. Location targeting cannot establish every visitor’s location with certainty.
The conversion total does not reconcile with actual inquiries.
A tracked event and a new customer inquiry are not automatically the same thing.
Test a completed form and inspect the tags, event triggers and conversion actions. Look for duplicate firing, button clicks counted as submissions or several actions recording the same inquiry.
Correct the event logic and document which actions represent leads, purchases or supporting interactions.
Check: verify a successful submission, an unsuccessful attempt and a repeat visit. Reconcile reporting with available inquiry records, allowing for attribution and consent differences.
The ad promotes a specific service, but the page stays generic.
The visitor has to search the website to find the details the ad led them to expect.
Follow the path from ad to page on mobile. Review the headline, service details, supporting evidence, call to action and form against the campaign’s actual promise.
Make the destination answer the relevant buying questions and provide a clear path to the advertised service.
Check: confirm the page and form work, then assess customer actions and lead quality with enough evidence to interpret the change.

From account review to implementation
Clear priorities.Work you can see.
The proposal defines the channels, deliverables and responsibilities before work begins. Depending on the engagement, that work can include the following.
A documented account diagnosis
Understand the offer, audience, current campaign structure and quality of the measurement before choosing what to change.
- Review of settings, targeting and available history
- Conversion definitions and tracking checks
- Ad-to-page alignment and business constraints
A reasoned campaign plan
Define what each campaign is intended to achieve and how its performance will be evaluated.
- Channel role, audience and geographic priorities
- Budget allocation and a realistic testing scope
- Success measures and implementation dependencies
Implementation with a record
Carry out the agreed campaign work and coordinate the creative, tracking or page changes it depends on.
- Campaign setup or restructuring within scope
- Ad copy, creative direction and page requirements
- A change log and checks before and after launch
Reporting with a next decision
Explain what changed, what the available evidence suggests and which action deserves attention next.
- Spend, relevant customer actions and cost efficiency
- Lead quality or sales feedback where available
- Test observations, limitations and next priorities
Planning covers both advertising spend and the agreed management scope. Creative production, development, tracking work and reporting cadence are defined in the proposal so the total commitment and responsibilities are clear.
The people behind the decisions
Founder-led.Connected to your business.
Search House is a Toronto-based consultancy bringing together SEO and paid media experience. Robert Ritacca Pointner stays involved in understanding the business, setting priorities and connecting the work across the customer journey.
Our team combines Robert’s SEO background with a partner’s paid media management experience. That matters when campaign performance depends on the offer, the landing page or how an inquiry is measured.
We can work directly with an owner or alongside an existing marketing team. Access, approvals, creative resources and your ability to handle new inquiries are considered when the scope is set.
Measurement that supports decisions
Clicks show activity.Customer actions show more.
A useful report follows the path from advertising spend to relevant attention, meaningful actions and commercial response. Each layer answers a different question.
Delivery & relevance
Spend, search terms, placements, geography and creative response where available.
What it tells us: whether the campaigns are reaching a relevant market and presenting an offer people have a reason to consider.
Meaningful actions
Verified calls, forms, bookings or purchases and the cost of generating them.
What it tells us: whether visits lead to the intended next step, subject to the definition and reliability of your conversion tracking.
Commercial response
Qualified inquiries, sales feedback, pipeline or revenue data where available.
What it tells us: whether those actions support the business. A low cost per form submission alone does not establish profitable customer acquisition.
Platform attribution, consent, repeat customers and longer sales cycles can affect interpretation. A tracking review through Conversion Tracking & Analytics can help clarify what is measured before more budget depends on it.
Toronto paid media FAQ
Good questions. Straight answers.
Clear answers about channels, advertising budgets, conversion tracking,
landing pages and working with Search House.
Understand the scope and the evidence before making the next
campaign decision.
What does paid media management include?
The exact scope depends on the account, but management can include business and audience research, campaign structure, targeting, creative direction, ad copy, budgets, bidding, search-term or placement review, testing and reporting.
Search House also considers the post-click experience and conversion evidence because campaign settings alone do not determine whether paid traffic becomes useful customer action.
Should my business use Google Ads or Meta Ads?
Google Ads is often a stronger starting point when people already search for a defined service, product or solution. It is designed to capture existing intent.
Meta Ads can be useful when the right audience can be identified before they search, or when visual explanation, repeated exposure and discovery play an important role. Some businesses benefit from one channel; others use both for different jobs.
Can Search House improve an existing ad account?
Yes. Existing history can provide useful evidence about search terms, audiences, creative, costs and customer actions. Search House reviews what should be retained, reorganized, tested or removed rather than rebuilding automatically.
If the immediate problem is unclear, a focused PPC Audit can provide diagnosis and priorities before ongoing management is considered.
What does a PPC audit examine?
A PPC audit can examine account structure, settings, targeting, search terms, audiences, placements, creative, budgets, bidding, conversion actions and landing-page alignment. The review is shaped around the account and business instead of a generic scorecard.
The output should explain what appears to be helping, what may be limiting performance and which decisions deserve priority. Learn more about PPC Audits.
Can you set up conversion tracking and analytics?
The scope can include defining meaningful conversion actions, reviewing existing measurement and improving the connection between advertising platforms, analytics, calls, forms, bookings or purchases.
What can be measured depends on the website, platform, consent requirements and business systems involved. The goal of Conversion Tracking & Analytics is better decision support—not a promise of perfect attribution.
Can Search House help with landing pages?
Yes. The work may improve an existing page or shape the requirements for a new one. It can address message continuity, page structure, copy, proof, calls to action, forms, mobile usability and the clarity of the next step.
Depending on the website and scope, Search House can provide direct page recommendations or collaborate with the appropriate designer or developer. Explore Landing Page Optimization.
How much advertising budget does a business need?
There is no useful universal minimum. A reasonable budget depends on auction costs, audience size, geography, customer value, conversion rate, sales capacity and how much evidence is needed to make a decision.
Search House evaluates whether the available budget can support a credible test or ongoing plan. Spreading a limited budget across too many channels, campaigns or audiences can make the evidence harder to interpret.
How quickly can paid media produce results?
Paid campaigns can begin generating delivery, clicks and conversion signals after launch, but early activity is not the same as stable performance. Timing depends on approval, demand, competition, budget, conversion volume, the landing experience and the sales cycle.
The first stage is often about validating setup and learning which assumptions hold. Search House does not promise a fixed timeline for leads, sales or return.
How does Search House report paid media performance?
Reporting can include delivery, spend, clicks, engagement, conversion actions and cost efficiency. Where downstream data can be connected responsibly, it may also consider lead quality, qualified pipeline, customer acquisition and revenue.
The purpose is to explain what changed, what the evidence suggests and what should happen next—not simply to repeat numbers already visible in the platform dashboard.
How do paid media and SEO work together?
Paid media can capture or develop demand while SEO improves longer-term organic discovery. The channels operate differently, but they can share useful customer language, landing pages, conversion evidence and insights about which offers or topics generate meaningful interest.
Search House evaluates the roles separately and connects them where doing so improves the customer journey or the quality of decisions.
Do you guarantee leads, sales or return on ad spend?
No responsible agency controls every auction, competitor, platform change, website interaction, sales conversation or customer decision. Search House does not guarantee a specific number of leads, sales or return on ad spend.
What can be provided is a clear diagnosis, reasoned strategy, careful implementation and transparent reporting around the signals and outcomes that can be observed.
