We've found the best marketing specialists so you don't have to.
Paid search marketing or Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is the practice of strategising, managing and optimising ad campaigns against keywords on search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo. It is a popular (and invaluable) digital marketing method because it drives strong ROI, especially for companies with access to a talented paid search specialist. It allows your business to reach audiences when they are most active and engaged, meaning your business can be positioned as a solution to your customers' needs at the right time for them to absorb it.

Passionfruit paid search specialists will help to oversee the management of PPC campaigns across multiple platforms, boosting overall conversions to significantly improve visibility and sales.

Your company only pays for the advertising if the link is clicked on. PPC freelancers use their knowledge and experience to maximise the results of a PPC campaign so each click costs the least possible amount it can and gets to the appropriate customer base.

Using a freelancer means you have direct access to their expertise, facilitating quick brainstorming and implementation. A PPC specialist will come into your company and focus on paid advertising solely, leading to rapid improvements on KPIs. As it's a specialised role, your freelancer can be a welcome addition that needs little interface with the surrounding team.
One of the things a PPC freelancer needs to have is AdWords Certification. This means they will have passed rigorous two AdWords exams, demonstrating a solid understanding of the AdWords platform.
To achieve Google Partner status, which is another credential to look out for, they will have managed at least £10,000 of advertising spend and have at least 12 months 'good' management performance.
It’s important that they have experience setting up and managing paid advertising campaigns for clients similar to you. Trust Passionfruit to do this research for you and suggest one or two specialists that could be perfect for your needs.
