Performance Max Agency for Brands That Need More Control
Upscale helps brands make Performance Max more accountable by improving tracking, feed quality, campaign structure, asset inputs, budget allocation, and product-level reporting.
Google Ads works when the commercial inputs are clean
Performance Max can scale fast, but it can also hide waste. If conversion data, feed inputs, product grouping, creative assets, and budget rules are weak, automation optimises around the wrong signals.

- Brands spending $5k+/month on Google Ads
- Ecommerce, DTC, B2B, insurance, fashion, luxury, or high-value lead generation
- Teams that want senior strategic ownership and clear reporting
- Businesses ready to fix tracking, structure, and landing page issues
What Performance Max Agency includes
PMax audit
We review campaign structure, conversion goals, asset groups, product coverage, search term insights, listing groups, budgets, and bidding targets.
Feed and Merchant Center inputs
PMax needs strong product data. We review the feed, diagnostics, images, titles, categories, and commercial labels.
Asset group structure
We structure asset groups around meaningful product categories, audiences, markets, or commercial priorities.
Audience signals
We refine audience inputs so Google has better starting points without over-relying on weak assumptions.
Budget control
We separate products where needed, exclude poor-fit inventory, and shift spend toward the areas with stronger commercial signal.
Reporting and insights
We translate PMax data into clear product, search, asset, and landing page decisions.
How we move from audit to controlled scale
Days 1-30: Audit and foundations
We review tracking, structure, search terms, product data, budgets, landing pages, and reporting so early changes are grounded in commercial reality.
Days 31-60: Restructure and testing
Campaigns, feeds, ads, targets, and conversion inputs are cleaned up. We test against clearer goals and remove obvious waste.
Days 61-90: Scale and refine
Budget moves toward the campaigns, products, markets, and search terms showing the strongest revenue and profit signal.

Common questions
What does a Performance Max agency do?
It manages the structure, feed inputs, asset groups, conversion goals, bidding, product segmentation, and reporting needed to make PMax more accountable.
Is Performance Max better than Shopping?
It depends on the job. PMax gives broader reach and automation; Standard Shopping gives more control. Many ecommerce brands need both in a deliberate structure.
Why is PMax spending on poor traffic?
Usually because goals, feeds, product grouping, audience signals, or budget controls are too broad. PMax follows the data it is given.
How long does PMax take to optimise?
Expect early changes within weeks, but stable learning and scaling usually need 30-90 days depending on conversion volume and account complexity.
