Recently had the opportunity to mentor students in the Kushal Business Challenge 2025–26 by Udhyam Learning Foundation.

What I found interesting was that this wasn’t just about “ideas” — students were actually going through a structured journey:

from identifying problems → doing market research → building basic prototypes → and pitching their ideas.

Many of them were working with very simple ideas, but when guided to think deeper —
Who is this for? Why will someone pay for it? How is it different?

Their approach started changing.

A few things stood out during the mentorship:
• Students often start with ideas, not problems
• Clarity improves only when they interact with real users
• Even basic market thinking creates a big shift in how they build

The program itself is designed around practical learning — combining mindset (like independent thinking, grit) with real ex*****on like surveys, business models, and pitches.

What I personally took away from this experience is:
No matter the stage, student or business.

Progress always comes from the same fundamentals:
understanding the problem, the customer, and how value is created.

Grateful to @ Foundation for the opportunity to contribute and be part of this journey.

Performance Marketing for Local Businesses — A Simple Blueprint

Local businesses don’t need complex funnels.

They need intent + speed + clarity.

Here’s the simple framework I use 👇

Step 1: Start with high-intent search

Keywords like:

“near me”

“service + city”

“emergency / urgent”

No awareness campaigns.

No broad experiments.

Step 2: One clear landing page

Fast load

Phone number visible

One action: call or form

Nothing else.

Step 3: Track real actions

Not clicks.

Not impressions.

Track:

Calls

WhatsApp

Form submissions

Step 4: Optimize weekly, not monthly

Pause low-intent terms fast

Push the budget only on converting queries

Keep it boring and consistent

Local growth isn’t about hacks.

It’s about showing up when people are ready to buy.

Simple setups win here.

3 Types of Clients I Love Working With And Why)

After working with many businesses, I’ve realized something:

Results depend more on the client's mindset than the ad account.

Here are 3 types of clients I genuinely enjoy working with 👇

1. Clients who respect the process

They don’t panic after 7 days.

They understand testing, learning, and scaling.

These accounts grow steadily.

2. Clients who know their numbers

They know:

What a lead is worth

Their close rate

Their real margins

This makes optimisation clear and fast.

3. Clients who want truth, not validation

They’re okay hearing:

This won’t work.

Your landing page is the problem.

We need to pause and fix the basics.

These clients win long-term.

Good ads help.

But the right collaboration compounds results.

One setting I see killing budgets again and again in Google Ads

“Search Partners” is turned ON by default.

On paper, it sounds fine.

More reach. More impressions.

In real accounts?

It quietly eats 30–40% of the spend with poor intent.

What usually happens:

Clicks look okay

CPC looks cheaper

But leads don’t convert

Sales teams complain about quality

Why?

Search Partners ≠ Google Search intent.

Your ads show on random sites, parked domains, and low-intent placements.

What I do instead:

Turn OFF Search Partners in the early stages

Scale only Google Search first

Review Search Terms daily for the first 2–3 weeks

Add Search Partners later only if the core search is profitable

Small checkbox.

Big difference.

Most accounts don’t fail because of strategy.

They fail because of ignored defaults.

Here’s a clean, practical LinkedIn post in your voice 👇



Why most startups burn their marketing budget in Month 1

I’ve seen this happen again and again.

Founders launch ads with excitement.
Money goes out fast.
Results don’t come.
Budget is gone before learning starts.

The problem isn’t Google Ads.
The problem is how Month 1 is treated.

What usually goes wrong:

• No clear conversion defined
Leads, demos, calls — everything mixed.
The system doesn’t know what to optimize for.

• Starting with scale mindset
High budgets, broad targeting, multiple campaigns.
Before even knowing what works.

• Skipping the learning phase
Ads need data.
Month 1 is for signals, not profits.

• Weak offer or landing page
Good ads can’t fix unclear pricing, slow pages, or vague messaging.

• Judging results too early
3–5 days of data ≠ performance insight.

How we approach Month 1 instead:

• Limit budget intentionally
Spend to learn, not to impress dashboards.

• One core goal
One conversion action. One funnel.

• Tight targeting
High-intent keywords or audiences only.

• Daily observation, not daily changes
Let patterns form before reacting.

Month 1 isn’t about ROAS.
It’s about understanding:
who clicks, who converts, and why.

Startups don’t fail because ads don’t work.
They fail because they try to scale before they understand.

That’s the real budget killer.

Lead quantity looks good on reports.

Lead quality decides whether the business actually grows.

I’ve seen accounts generating 300–400 leads/month

And still the sales team is saying: These aren’t useful.

The mistake?

Everyone tracks the wrong metrics.

So, how do I measure lead quality, not just volume:

1️⃣ Intent at the time of click

High-intent search terms beat any volume play.

If your top keywords can’t convert offline, no CRM fix will save them.

2️⃣ Lead-to-Call / Lead-to-Contact ratio

If sales can’t even reach 50–60% of leads, something is broken:

form design

targeting

traffic source

3️⃣ Qualified Leads, not total leads

I always ask clients to define what “qualified” means:

budget range

decision-maker

timeline

Then we optimize campaigns for that—not for cheap CPL.

4️⃣ Cost per Qualified Lead (CPQL)

₹300 CPL that never converts is expensive.

₹1,500 CPL that closes deals is cheap.

5️⃣ Feedback loop with sales

Daily or Weekly. Not monthly.

Campaigns improve faster when marketing listens to real call outcomes.

Big takeaway from real accounts:

Scaling lead quantity before fixing lead quality only scales chaos and losses.

Fix quality first.

Volume comes naturally after.

Search vs PMax vs Shopping — When to Use What

This question comes up from almost every client.

“Which Google Ads campaign type should we run?”

There’s no one right answer.

It depends on your business stage and what you’re trying to achieve.

Here’s how I look at it in real accounts.

Search Campaigns

This is where I start most of the time.

Why?

Because Search captures intent.

If someone is actively searching for what you sell, you want to be there.

Use Search when:

You want predictable leads or sales

You understand your keywords and buyer intent

You want control over messaging and spending

Search is boring.

But boring often makes money.

Shopping Campaigns

This is built for e-commerce.

Your product, price, brand, and image show up directly in search results.

Use Shopping when:

You have a clean, well-structured product feed

Pricing is competitive

Your product doesn’t need a heavy explanation

If your feed is messy, Shopping will struggle.

Feed quality matters more than clever bidding.

Performance Max (PMax)

PMax is powerful, but only when the foundation is strong.

It works best when Google already has data to learn from.

Use PMax when:

Conversion tracking is solid

You already have Search or Shopping data

You want incremental reach across Search, YouTube, Display, and Discovery

PMax is not a replacement for strategy.

It amplifies what already exists — good or bad.

How I usually structure it

Start with Search (control + intent)

Add Shopping for e-commerce once the feed is ready

Layer PMax later for scale, not as a shortcut

Most accounts fail because they jump straight to automation.

Automation works best after clarity.

Choose the campaign type based on your goal, not Google’s recommendations.

That simple shift alone improves performance in most accounts.

My Simple Framework to Audit Any Ad Account in 10 Minutes

Whenever someone says,

Can you quickly check why this account isn’t performing?

and you can do that to.

I don’t open spreadsheets first.

I run this quick 10-minute audit.

This catches most issues early.

Step 1: Goal & Tracking (2 mins)

Before anything else:

Is the right conversion being tracked?

Is it firing correctly?

Is Google optimizing for the business outcome, not just leads or clicks?

If tracking is wrong, nothing else matters.

Step 2: Intent Check (2 mins)

I look at:

Search terms (not keywords)

What users are actually typing

Most accounts fail here:

Too much research intent

Not enough buyer intent

High spend + low intent = wasted budget.

Step 3: Structure & Focus (2 mins)

I check:

Are campaigns doing one job or many?

Are ad groups tight or mixed?

Is brand traffic eating non-brand performance?

Messy structure hides real performance.

Step 4: Ads & Message Match (2 mins)

Quick scan:

Does the ad match the query?

Does it promise what the landing page delivers?

Clear CTA or vague fluff?

Good ads don’t try to be clever.

They try to be clear.

Step 5: Budget & Bidding Logic (2 mins)

Finally:

Is budget going to what already works?

Are bids aligned with the goal (CPA, ROAS, volume)?

Any campaigns limited by budget or data?

Most people scale too early…

or optimize too late.

This 10-minute audit doesn’t fix everything.

But it tells me exactly where to dig deeper.

And honestly,

80% of Google Ads problems show up right here.

One thing I’ve learned after running campaigns across SaaS, ecom, and local businesses:

Intent decides conversions. Not budget. Not hacks.

Same platform. Same Google Ads.

Very different results.

Here’s how intent changes everything:

SaaS
People don’t buy on the first click.
They’re comparing, reading, evaluating.
If you push “Book a Demo” too early, it rarely works.

What works better:
– Problem-focused keywords
– Educational landing pages
– Soft conversions first (trial, audit, free tool)

Ecom
Intent is much clearer.
Users already know what they want.

What matters most:
– Product-level keywords
– Price, reviews, delivery clarity
– Fast landing pages

If intent is high, friction kills conversions.

Local businesses
Intent is urgent.
People want solutions now.

What converts:
– Location + service keywords
– Call extensions
– Simple landing pages with trust + phone number

Same ad strategy won’t work for all three.

Before building any campaign, I now ask just one question:

What stage is the user at when they search this?

Practical takeaway:
– Match keywords to user mindset
– Align landing pages to intent, not features
– Don’t judge performance without understanding intent first

Most “Google Ads not working” problems are actually intent mismatches.

Once you fix that, everything else becomes easier.

Wrapping up 2025.

This year wasn’t smooth.
It had highs, lows, doubts, wins, and a lot of learning in between.

A few things I’m grateful for this year:

– Closed my biggest client to date. One deal, six-figure payment in a single go. Highest revenue year for my agency so far.

– Achieved Gold & Platinum level as a Google Ads (Google Partner) Ads Product Expert.

– Got the opportunity to contribute as a mentor in the Khushal Business Challenge by Udhyam Learning Foundation. Thanks, Mukesh Kumar Sir, for this opportunity

– Started working on a new venture in the finance space. Still in the building phase, planned for 2026.

– Learned far more than just work: skills, people, relationships, priorities, and when to slow down, and much more.

What changed the most wasn’t revenue or titles.
It was perspective.

Growing up around all this made me understand people and situations better.
Work better.
Life better.

Ending this year on a happy and safe note, and I truly hope the same for you and your loved ones.

Thank you to everyone who was part of my journey this year — clients, friends, mentors, family, and even challenges.

2026, I’m coming with a better version of myself.
As a person.
As a professional.
And as someone who values life beyond work.

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year 🤍
