Finds wasted spend and missed chances in an account. The work is too small to justify a hire and too important to leave to chance. It publishes content on a schedule, so editorial deadlines are fixed. The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in Iowa, so this one is for residents there. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call. About 1 hour a week should overlap with the team's day (CT). ## What you deliver - Audit a $40k-a-month Google Ads account and list ten changes ranked by expected saving. - A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope - The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed - One round of edits after the company's review is included ## How the work runs - Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files - Days 2 to 6: the work, with questions answered the same day - Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough **Duration:** about 10 working days.
