Paid media account audit services for complex ad accounts
We review your account structure, attribution setup, creative performance, and budget allocation to identify where efficiency drops and spend gets misdirected.
Working with data-driven teams
What our paid media audit covers
Account structure review
Everything starts with creators. We lead with people and the content they naturally make: then we build the system around it, so it scales across formats, platforms, and paid.
Creative audit & hook analysis
Creative performance mostly changes before media efficiency moves. That’s why we review top performers, dead weight, hook variation, format mix, and the assets driving CTR down or CPM up.
Audience & targeting review
Audience inefficiency usually comes from how segments compete and decay over time. Our team reviews overlap, exclusion gaps, lookalike performance, custom audience freshness, and intent layering.
Bidding, budget, & pacing
Bidding systems perform best when structure supports the goal. To manage this, we review bid strategy fit, pacing issues, daily versus lifetime budget logic, and budget distribution.

Attribution & conversion tracking
Account decisions depend on the data feeding the platform. Our team checks pixel firing, CAPI, Enhanced Conversions, attribution windows, and deduplication.
Landing page audit
Post-click friction changes how paid media performs, so we review load speed, mobile UX, message match, and page-level conversion drag.
Auction & market review
Market pressure affects performance before it shows up in account-level decisions. We review auction insights, share of voice, competitor creative, and category shifts.
Audit report & strategy call
Findings need a clear order of action. We deliver a PPC audit report with prioritized recommendations, a PPC audit checklist, and a 60-minute strategy call so your team knows what to address first.
How our paid media audit works
Step 01
Scoping and access
First, we confirm the channels in scope, monthly spend, account goals, and current pain points. Once the scope is clear, our team sets up read-only access.
Step 02
Forensic analysis
After access is confirmed, we review account data, creative performance, audience setup, attribution, and competitive context. Then we map the issues by urgency and expected impact.
Step 03
Report, call, and roadmap
Once the analysis is complete, we deliver a written audit deck and walk your team through the findings in a live strategy call. After that, we outline the next steps for your internal team or our execution team.
