The method behind the lab

The ABC System.

Attribution, Branding and Campaigns give every experiment a shared view of the customer journey. They connect the evidence, the experience and the media so each test has a purpose and a way to learn.

Pillar A // Telemetry

Attribution

Know what is driving value.

Connect server-side tagging, GA4 events, CRM and call tracking so leads can be followed through to revenue. Turn the evidence into reports that guide your next decision.

Explore Attribution

Pillar B // Experience

Branding

Make every touchpoint work together.

Bring your positioning, creative and landing pages into one consistent experience. Build fast React pages, connect the forms and systems behind them, and test the path from first impression to enquiry.

Explore Branding

Pillar C // Media buying

Campaigns

Put the right message in front of the right people.

Coordinate Google and Microsoft search, product feeds and social campaigns. Use search terms, negative keywords, audience signals and conversion evidence to decide what to test and where to focus.

One operating system

Six modules. A shared way of working.

Client knowledge, documented workflows, AI-assisted delivery and human review connect six capabilities inside PPC Snobs OS. That gives new ideas a way to become repeatable work.

Methodology

How We Work.

From the first question to the next improvement, each phase gives the team a clear decision to make.

01 / Audit

Find the constraint

Understand the business goal, measurement, customer experience and campaigns. Find the bottleneck or opportunity worth testing.

02 / Blueprint

Design the test

Set a hypothesis, owner, success measure and review point. Match the right people, tools and access to the work.

03 / Production

Build and run

Build or change the landing page, measurement, workflow or campaign. Use AI where it helps, with a person reviewing the result.

04 / Calibration

Learn and improve

Compare results with the starting point, record what was learned and decide what to change, scale or stop next.

ROI calculator

See what better performance could mean.

Start with your numbers. Test a change. See what it could leave for your business.

Your monthly numbers

Use one currency (USD) and one conversion definition throughout.

Changes you want to explore

These are your scenario assumptions, not automatic gains from a module.

A negative change means a lower cost per click.

Relative change: 2.6% plus 10% becomes 2.86%.

Add a planning figure for the people or project support in your scenario to calculate net value and ROI.

Discuss your scenario

A scenario, not a forecast or price quote. Monthly figures exclude setup fees, fixed overhead and tax.

How this calculation works

Clicks = ad spend ÷ CPC. Conversions = clicks × conversion rate. Revenue = conversions × value per conversion. Use average order revenue, or an evidence-based revenue value per lead.

Margin is the share of revenue remaining after product or service variable costs, before ads and support. Contribution after ads = revenue × margin − ad spend. Net value = the change in contribution − the added support cost you enter. ROI = net value ÷ that added cost.

The scenario holds ad spend, conversion value and margin constant. Tracking and reporting help you understand performance; turning them on does not automatically create revenue. This model does not establish incremental lift or account for conversion lag.

Testimonials

What clients say.

Perspectives on our strategy, measurement and delivery.

“Our blended ROAS jumped from 2.1x to 4.8x within a single quarter. The attribution work alone paid for the entire engagement twice over.”

VP of GrowthB2B SaaS

“Most vendors pitch frameworks. These are the only people we've worked with who actually build the system. The reports tell us what's happening, not what to believe.”

CMOFinancial Services

“They rebuilt our entire tracking stack in six weeks. We finally know which campaigns make money and can act on it that week—not next quarter.”

Director of PerformanceLogistics & B2B

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is the PPC Innovation Lab?

It is the way PPC Snobs combines media, measurement, landing pages, systems and talent. We test new tools and approaches, build what works, develop the people behind it and use evidence to improve the next decision.

See how the lab works
Can you add technical talent to my team?

Yes. A Part-time Snobs engagement can cover a focused backlog or regular improvements. A Dedicated Snob can support sustained work. We agree the skills, responsibilities, schedule and review process before quoting.

Define the role
How does the ABC framework guide the work?

Attribution shows what is happening, Branding shapes the experience, and Campaigns put the message in market. Together they help us frame tests and review results. Richard brings an executive perspective to commercial priorities; direct advisory is scoped separately.

Explore the executive perspective
What is an AI-augmented VA?

A developer or programmer who combines technical skills with AI tools to build websites, integrations and automated workflows. AI helps with coding, research, testing and documentation. The person reviews the code, validates the result and remains accountable for the work.

Read about agentic workflows
Who owns the accounts and data?

Your business accounts and client data stay under your control. We agree access, responsibilities and handover at the start. Any separate software licences or proprietary tools are identified in the engagement terms.

See how the work is organized
How is pricing structured?

A quote sets out the agreed work, people, schedule and fee. Embedded developers, specialist projects and direct executive advisory are scoped according to the engagement. The ABC framework is how we organize the work.

Request a quote
Is the ROI calculator a forecast or a price quote?

It is a monthly scenario based on the numbers and changes you enter. It shows how revenue and contribution could change, including the support cost you choose to model. Actual performance depends on your market, offer and execution. The calculator does not set your VA or partner fee.
