On market context: These results were delivered in Kenya, where baseline CPCs run lower than the US, UK, or EU. What transfers directly to any market is the methodology behind them: restructuring accounts for Quality Score, cutting broad-match waste, building call-first conversion tracking, and pushing CTR to 2โ€“4x benchmark. Those are structural skills, not currency-dependent ones, they compound the same way whether the baseline CPC is $0.12 or $12.

What I Bring To Your Team

Full-stack accountability

I run every account personally: strategy, build, conversion tracking, optimization, client reporting and communication, plus sourcing the business myself. No account manager, no hand-offs between me and the client.

Full account ownership

I've built 2 accounts from zero, rescued 1 failing account, and restructured 1 fragmented e-commerce setup. I don't need a mature system handed to me to produce results.

Cross-vertical range

Emergency/local service, B2B industrial, and e-commerce accounts. I adapt strategy to how each buyer actually searches and decides, not a single template.

Measurement discipline

Every account I manage tracks calls, directions, and conversions from day one, not just clicks. If I can't measure it, I don't report it as a win.

Budget efficiency

While these campaigns ran in Kenya, the methodology; maximizing Quality Score and CTR, is universal. This discipline scales directly to larger budgets in any market (US/EU/Global), regardless of the local CPC baseline.

Case Studies

1. Emergency Towing Service, Nairobi

608 Phone Calls in 90 Days at $0.12 Avg. CPC

The situation: This towing service had strong service delivery and competitive pricing, but was buried in search results, had no call tracking, and was losing every emergency call to competitors who showed up first.
