Google Ads,
run like a
boardroom
function.

Most agencies are staffed by people who learned Google Ads by managing Google Ads. North Country Consulting was built on a different foundation — a decade inside Google’s Ads platform, Stripe’s revenue operations, and Apollo.io’s go-to-market engine. We take on a small number of accounts because senior-level work demands it. Every client gets that perspective applied directly — not filtered through an account coordinator.

— What we believe
Positions,
not hedges.
— 01
Attribution is a governance problem.
If your marketing attribution model can't be reproduced by your finance team, it's not a measurement strategy — it's marketing fiction. We rebuild it until it survives a CFO review.
— 02
Agencies should be fireable.
Most agencies make themselves hard to fire. We do the opposite. You own the account, the data, and every document we produce. If we part ways, you leave knowing exactly what was done and why.
— 03
Account structure is your strategy in disguise.
Your campaign architecture is a strategic document. Most accounts we inherit are structured around what was easy to set up, not what's easy to justify to the board. We rebuild both.
— 04
The default settings are designed for Google's growth, not yours.
Performance Max is not a strategy. It's an outsourced allocation engine that will happily cannibalize your own branded search. We contain it, instrument it, or cut it — based on what the data actually says.
Lead with numbers.
Hide nothing.
