They cover 15 different businesses across dental, legal, e-commerce, B2B, healthcare, and home services, so you can benchmark against a vertical that looks like yours.

What These 15 Google Ads Case Studies Have in Common
Across all 15 accounts, the same three variables separated strong performance from wasted spend:
- Conversion tracking that measures the real business outcome. The GLP-1 account’s turnaround started with fixing duplicate tracking. Several accounts were optimizing toward events that did not matter.
- High-intent keyword structure. Every dental, legal, and home services win came from concentrating budget on procedure-specific, locally targeted, commercial-intent searches instead of broad terms.
- Ongoing optimization, not set-and-forget. The accounts that hit $2-$4 CPAs got there over months of iteration, not at launch.
