The Tap - last, always

Now turn it on. Last, always.

Organic is a well and paid is a tap. The well builds and you keep it, but it does not fill on the day you sign. The tap does. That is exactly why it comes last. I will not spend your money sending traffic to a profile with the wrong hours and a website that does not convert. Fix that first, then the tap goes on.

Paid ads

What sits inside it.

01

Last, always

Never before the profile, the desk and the tracking are working. If I can rank you for the term instead, that is the cheaper answer and I will say so, even though it costs me the sale. Paid carries volume on top of a position that already holds - it does not replace the position.

02

Built on the words people actually type

Every headline, image and landing page is built on the language somebody uses when they have decided they need this done, not on the language an agency would choose.

03

Your accounts, your card

Campaigns run on your own Google and Meta accounts, and the spend goes on your own card, visible without asking. I never hold it and I never mark it up. Turn the tap down or off and nothing about your organic position changes.

The work

Done in order, then held.

Phase one

Research

The language your buyers actually search with, and what the businesses already spending in your market are running.

Phase two

Build

Ad, audience and landing page built as one path to a booked enquiry.

Phase three

Launch

Live only once every call and form is counted, so the measure is qualified enquiries, not impressions.

Phase four

Tune

Every result reads as a lever, and the first ninety days are treated as the proving period, because nothing is proven yet.

Questions

Before the nine minutes.

How is this structured? +
I will not spend your money sending traffic to a profile with the wrong hours and a website that does not convert. Fix that first, then we turn the tap on - on your own accounts, your spend on your own card, and I am paid on what it sells.
Google or Meta? +
Whichever fits how your buyers actually search. Sometimes both, built as one path rather than two campaigns that do not know about each other.
Do I need to be ranking first? +
In almost every case, yes, and paid is the one thing I will actively talk you out of buying first. The Tap sits last in the order for a reason: the profile, the desk and the counting have to be working before money goes in, or the spend leaks straight out the other side.
Where this sits

Paid ads is not sold on its own. It sits inside The Tap, and the whole order is on how it works.

Which step fits where you are.

Nine minutes. I will already have looked at what you have, and each step has a fixed price, said plainly once I have seen it.
