YOUR GOOGLE ADS TEAM

Founder & Google Ads Lead, Peak Pilots
Peak Pilots is a small senior team, not junior account managers on rotation. Every Google Ads account gets a dedicated strategist on Merchant Center, Shopping, and PMax who is directly reachable.
Naitik Savaliya founded Peak Pilots in 2021. You meet your strategist before you sign. Our free Google Ads audit is a working session, not a sales pitch.
GOOGLE ADS 101
A Google ads agency in India runs paid search and shopping end-to-end: account structure, Merchant Center feeds, bidding, tracking, and optimisation, by people who manage ecommerce accounts full-time.
For D2C brands, that means Merchant Center feed management tied to inventory and margin, server-side conversion tracking so Google optimises on real orders, and Shopping plus PMax structured to stop budget leaking to low-margin SKUs. Most failures come from bad feed data and broken tracking, not the platform itself.
What a specialist agency runs beyond Search:
If an agency talks about impressions before they can show you enhanced conversion match rates and feed disapproval counts, that's not a Google ads agency. That's a media buyer billing a retainer.
Audit — live Google Ads and Merchant Center review, tracking check, feed configuration, and unit economics before we touch budget.
Fix — feed segmentation, enhanced conversions, and campaign rebuild where historical structure is holding performance back.
Test — search term mining, PMax asset group tests, and budget reallocation with documented winners and losers.
Scale — budget moves to proven SKUs, queries, and asset groups with margin guardrails on every increase.
Four layers: audit, fix, test, scale, before budget compounds.
Brands that trust us
THE GOOGLE ADS PROBLEM
Four issues we find on almost every Google Ads audit before we touch your campaigns or feed.
Product feeds go live without exclusions, custom labels, or bestseller segmentation. Budget flows to low-margin SKUs while winners starve.
Performance Max campaigns with weak asset groups, no search term visibility, and conversion tracking that misses 30 to 40% of purchases.
Agencies that treat Google like lead-gen. No COD checkout logic, no festive bid adjustments, no tie-back to contribution margin.
Most agencies optimize for ROAS on the platform dashboard, not profit in your P&L. A 5x ROAS on a low-margin SKU can lose money while looking like a win.
FEED AUDIT
What we fix on every Merchant Center audit before scaling Shopping or PMax.
GOOGLE CHANNELS
As an ecommerce marketing agency, every channel we run reports to one tracking layer and one P&L view. No isolated dashboards, no channel cannibalizing another's budget without you knowing.
Feed-led campaigns on custom labels and SKU exclusions. We fix the feed before bids. See our Google Shopping feed checklist.
Segmented asset groups with brand exclusions and budget caps, not one black-box campaign guessing at your margins.
Brand and non-brand search for buyers ready to purchase, with clear split between defense and growth spend.
Weekly feed health checks and disapproval fixes. Most Shopping drops happen here, not in bid strategy.
FEED-FIRST AGENCY
A specialist ecommerce Google ads agency in India handles channels differently from a generalist performance marketing agency. Here's what actually changes when you switch to feed-first management:
Feed health
Reviewed once at setup, rarely revisited
Audited weekly, tied to every custom label and exclusion
Tracking
Relies on platform-reported ROAS
Server-side GTM tied to your actual Shopify orders and P&L
Channel management
Search, Shopping, PMax run and reported separately
Managed as one connected budget with weekly overlap review
Contracts
6–12 month lock-ins common
Month-to-month, no lock-in
Minimum spend
Varies, often unclear until sales call
₹1L/month, stated upfront

Scale
This is the exact tracking stack we build for every client before we scale spend. Order events fire server-side through GTM, deduplicated against client-side signals, then reconciled against your actual P&L, not just Google's reported conversions. If your current agency can't show you a diagram like this, ask them what happens between a click and a sale.
HOW TO CHOOSE
Not every Google ads agency in India is built for the same kind of brand. Some are generalist PPC shops juggling B2B lead-gen, local services, and ecommerce in one portfolio. Others optimise for platform ROAS without touching Merchant Center feeds, enhanced conversions, or margin logic.
Before you hire a Google Ads agency, check for four things. These are the questions we ask on every audit, and the standards we hold our own team to:
Ask for screenshots from live Google Ads accounts — real account data, not slide-deck case studies. Look for week-over-week trends on Shopping and PMax, not a single cherry-picked month.
If an agency doesn't mention feed custom labels, enhanced conversions, or server-side GTM in the first conversation, their bid strategy is working off incomplete data. Ask specifically about feed disapproval rates and conversion match quality before you increase budget.
COD rates, UPI prepaid conversion, festive demand spikes, and regional shipping cutoffs all affect Google Ads performance for Indian stores. Agencies applying Western ecommerce assumptions will misallocate budget during Diwali, wedding season, and end-of-sale inventory clears.
A good Google ads agency in India will tell you if your product, margin, or feed isn't ready to scale profitably, before taking your budget. Walk away from anyone who promises 10X ROAS without seeing your Merchant Center and tracking setup first.
At Peak Pilots, we only take on D2C and ecommerce brands spending ₹1L+/month on ads. See who we do and don't work with below.

HOW WE WORK
Before scaling Shopping or PMax, we fix product titles, custom labels, exclusions, and feed errors. Bad data in means wasted spend out. This is the step most agencies skip because it's unglamorous, and it's the reason most Shopping accounts underperform.
Brand search, non-brand search, Shopping, and PMax work together. Budget shifts to what drives purchases, not what looks good on a dashboard. We review channel overlap weekly so PMax isn't quietly cannibalizing your cheapest brand-search conversions.
Enhanced conversions, GA4, and server-side tagging so Google optimizes on real orders, not inflated pixel fires from accidental page views. Every account we run gets the same GTM server-side setup shown above, before we touch your budget.
No lock-ins. No vanity metrics. Just profit-first growth.
WHO WE WORK WITH
You run or want to run Google Shopping, Search, or Performance Max for your store
You need a Google Ads agency in India that understands ecommerce feeds and checkout
You spend ₹1L+ per month across Google (or plan to once tracking is fixed)
You want reporting tied to revenue and margin, not just click-through rate
We do not work with B2B lead-gen or local service businesses
We do not work with stores spending under ₹1L per month on ads total
Minimum ₹1L/month active ad spend
PRICING
Management fees run ₹25K–₹1.5L/month for most D2C specialists, separate from ad spend you pay Google directly. Below ₹1L/month in spend, there usually isn't enough data for Shopping and PMax to optimise reliably.
₹25K–₹1.5L+
Flat monthly retainer
10–20%
% of ad spend
4–8 weeks
Foundation phase
₹1L–₹5L
Growth phase spend
Flat monthly retainer
Fixed management fee, independent of ad spend. Typical range for specialist agencies managing Shopping, PMax, Search, feed work, and weekly reporting.
% of ad spend
Agency fee scales as a percentage of your monthly Google budget. Watch the spend-to-fee ratio as you scale: your ad spend should be at least 3 to 4x the management fee.
Foundation phase
Feed fix, tracking setup, and campaign rebuild before aggressive scaling. Most accounts need this before Shopping and PMax can optimise on clean data.
Growth phase spend
Once feed and tracking are fixed, most D2C brands we work with scale into this band over 60 to 90 days with stable ROAS.
Two rules before you sign: verify the spend-to-fee ratio and insist on reporting that ties to Shopify orders, not platform ROAS alone. Get a scoped quote on your free Google Ads audit, in writing, with zero obligation.
Peak Pilots works with brands at ₹1L/month active ad spend and above. You retain ownership of your Google Ads account and billing. We operate as partners with admin access and documented weekly changes.

Frequently asked
What ecommerce brands ask before hiring a Google Ads agency in India.
We only manage Google Ads for ecommerce and D2C brands. That means feed work, Shopping structure, PMax guardrails, and India-specific checkout logic are part of every engagement, not add-ons.
We don't claim to be the best for every business. We're built specifically for ecommerce and D2C brands spending ₹1L+/month on Google Ads. Within that niche, our case studies (47% CPA drop, 140% revenue growth, 39% CPA drop) are the evidence. If you're a B2B or local service business, we're not the right fit and we'll tell you that upfront.
Yes, and we manage them together rather than as separate campaigns. Shopping captures precise, feed-driven intent; PMax expands reach across Search, Display, YouTube, and Gmail. Run separately without shared exclusions, they compete for the same budget. We set them up so they don't.
Most accounts see a measurable ROAS lift within 3 to 5 weeks, once we've fixed feed and tracking issues. Client results shown on this page range from 3.9x ROAS in 5 weeks to 6x ROAS in 6 weeks. The exact timeline depends on your account's starting condition and how much historical conversion data Google already has to learn from.
We work with stores spending ₹1 lakh per month or more in active Google Ads spend, or brands planning to reach that within their first month with us. Below that, there isn't enough data volume for Shopping and PMax to optimize properly, and our management fee wouldn't be proportionate to your spend.
Our fee is structured as a flat monthly retainer scaled to account complexity and spend level, agreed before you sign anything, never a hidden percentage buried in your ad spend. You pay Google directly for media spend through your own account; we only invoice for management. See pricing for how retainers map to spend bands.
Yes, always. You get full administrative access to your Google Ads and Merchant Center accounts from day one. We never manage accounts we don't give you visibility into, and we don't require you to route ad spend through an agency-owned MCC you can't see.
Most digital marketing agencies run Google Ads as one of ten services. We only work with ecommerce and D2C brands on Google, with dedicated Meta Ads management on the same senior team, which means Merchant Center feed hygiene and Shopify order-level tracking are core skills, not something we're learning on your account.
Google Shopping, Performance Max, Google Search (brand and non-brand), and Merchant Center feed management. We don't run Display-only or App-install campaigns as standalone services. If your business needs those, we'll tell you honestly rather than upsell a channel we don't specialize in.
We monitor Merchant Center weekly, not just at setup. Disapprovals, policy violations, and feed sync errors are usually the real reason a "good" Shopping campaign suddenly drops to zero impressions. Catching these fast is a core part of our process, covered in Step 1 of how we work.
Both. Most new clients come to us with an existing account that's underperforming. We start every engagement with a feed and account audit, whether the account is new or three years old, so we know exactly what's broken before we touch the budget.
You get a live dashboard tied to GA4 and your actual Shopify order data, not just platform-reported ROAS, plus a monthly written summary explaining what changed and why. No screenshot-of-a-dashboard reports.
No. We work month-to-month. We believe clients should stay because of results, not because of a cancellation clause.
Ecommerce and D2C brands across fashion, jewellery, watches, beauty, home goods, and similar categories with a product catalogue sold through Shopify or a comparable platform. We don't currently manage B2B lead-gen, SaaS, or local service business accounts.
