A DTC ecommerce brand spending around $40K per month on Google Ads watched ROAS decline for three straight quarters despite consistent in-house management. After transitioning to a done-with-you model with groas, the brand consolidated campaigns, rebuilt its shopping feed, recalibrated bidding targets, and restructured Performance Max. This case study walks through the diagnosis of three compounding structural problems, the specific changes made, and how purchase revenue recovered within six months. It draws out the core lesson for ecommerce brands: Google Ads performance scales on infrastructure quality, not management hours.

A multi-market real estate agency was spending $25K-$30K per month on Google Ads but hemorrhaging budget on unqualified leads. The root causes were structural: broken conversion tracking, broad match keywords without negative coverage, generic landing pages, and Smart Bidding running on bad data. By rebuilding tracking, restructuring campaigns around buyer intent, building dedicated landing pages, and re-enabling tCPA with clean data, the agency cut cost per qualified lead meaningfully while improving lead quality across every market. This case study breaks down each fix in sequence and explains why real estate advertisers need systematic, continuous execution to compete in a high-CPL vertical.

Increasing your Google Ads budget without fixing structural and execution constraints usually raises costs, not revenue.

This case study follows a mid-size ecommerce brand that hit a Google Ads growth ceiling after a strong first year running ads in-house.
