Challenge

A consultation booking business had applied AI suggested scripts, bulk edits and structure changes with no overall strategy. CPA became unstable, topping $136 on its worst day.

What I did

  • Stopped the stream of fragmented automated changes
  • Rebuilt budget allocation around what converts
  • Refocused keywords on search intent: clicks +99%
  • Restructured the account around booking goals
