Is your $20/day Google Ads budget working? If not, the problem isn't the size of your budget—it's the massive, invisible waste in your setup.

The reality is this: Most small accounts lose $100–$300 a month to 'Hidden Costs' like terrible Quality Scores, irrelevant clicks, and lazy negative keywords. That wasted $1,800 a year is guaranteed to continue.

My $750 Hidden Cost Protection Plan stops that waste immediately. This isn't an expense; it's a one-time investment that pays for itself in just a few months by simply recapturing the money you were already spending inefficiently. Stop paying the Google 'inefficiency tax,' and start building a profitable foundation today."
