Salary & Growth Opportunities:
Google Ads Specialist starts at $900-$1500

Growth opportunities.
The Ideal Candidate:
Google Ads: At least 2 years experience with Google Ads is required.
Experience using Google web analytics tools (e.g. Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, Google Console)
Experience in setting up and optimizing PPC campaigns on all major search engines
Solid knowledge of website analytics tools and programming languages such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Strong analytical mindset, with a data-driven approach to decision-making.
Marketing Strategy: Your job is to learn about the client’s business and understand what they sell, who they sell to, etc. And then, guide the client towards strategies that help their ad campaigns become as profitable as possible. If this means they need to change their website, it’s up to you to realize this and recommend it. If this means their obsession with getting a low click-through-rate is hurting them because the quality of their website traffic is dropping (and consequently their conversion rates), it’s up to you to educate on a better metric to base their campaign success off of.
Problem-solving: While communication is integral, don’t ask a question you could have solved yourself. We need people willing to “figure it out” and don’t mind rolling up their sleeves. That doesn’t mean we aren’t here to support you, we are. But only when you encounter a problem or a situation that you truly can’t solve. You’re expected to bring more to the table than expected and hurdle problems, not allow them to get in your way.
Make Sure:
Strong English proficiency
Willing to work a US time zone
Remote working. This is a remote (work from home) position.
All job offers start with a 60-day trial to ensure that we’re the right fit for each other.
Our Values:
Honesty, 100% Transparency, and No Fluff – We communicate internally and with the clients – what is working, what is not working, what we did right, what we did wrong, when we make a mistake and where we can improve. We don’t guess answers if unaware; instead, we spend time researching and finding solutions. We don’t add any hidden fees or have long-term contracts. We communicate real numbers. We want people to work with us for our service, not because contracts bind them.
Responsibility About Being Best: We hate cookie-cutter performance, even if the account is delivering what the client needs, we still want to maximize the value that can be generated. We like to be on top of every update that comes out of Google ads and understand how the mechanics work on the backend. We know our work matters and impacts other businesses and their employees.
Accountability & acting with strong ethics are a priority.
