“Green Door Co are a great team to work with – they delivered a lot of awards success, and made it streamlined. They are a pleasure to work with.”
— Andy Moslehi, Director, The Google Ad Guy
Company Profile
Google Ad Guy
Expert-led Google Ads for service-based businesses. Performance guarantees with zero lock-in contracts.
Objective
Google Ad Guy needed to raise its profile and build the kind of trust required to win bigger, more complex service-based clients, those with higher budgets and higher expectations. The awards strategy set out to validate their senior-led delivery model and exceptional PPC results, giving them recognised proof that matched the quality of the work they were already doing.
Benefits of working with Green Door Co
- Targeted awards that showcased agency growth and campaign performance.
- Translated complex results into clear, compelling award narratives.
- Identified standout PPC campaigns for high-impact award entries.
- Managed strategy and submissions so the Google Ad Guy team stayed focused on clients.
Value Created
- Won Company of the Year at the International Business Awards.
- Secured major PPC wins across APAC, Global and Netty Awards.
- Recognised internationally for top-performing Google Ads campaigns.
- Elevated from quiet achiever to award-winning performance agency, fuelling their growth as they doubled their client base.
Google Ad Guy is a rapidly growing performance marketing agency specialising in Google Ads for service-based businesses, and they do it exceptionally well. Serving more than 200 clients and backed by a 4.8-star Google rating, the agency is led by founder Amin Moslehi, who brings 18+ years of deep Google Ads expertise to every account.
Rejecting the typical churn-and-burn agency model, Google Ad Guy keeps senior expertise involved throughout the entire lifecycle. With no lock-in contracts, transparent pricing and a two-month free trial, they invite clients to see the results before making a commitment.
Objectives
When Google Ad Guy engaged Green Door Co, they were in a strong period of growth, tripling monthly turnover and doubling their team within a year. But despite this commercial momentum, the brand remained relatively unknown outside its immediate network and lacked broader market visibility. Objectives included:
- Build credibility and trust: Google Ad Guy wanted to close the “trust gap” that often exists for fast-growing agencies by positioning themselves as a proven, reliable choice for larger service-based businesses with more complex marketing needs.
- Create a competitive edge: Becoming an award-winning agency was a deliberate strategy to demonstrate the strength of their model and give prospective clients a clear, confidence-building reason to choose them over competitors.
- Validate the business model: Google Ad Guy sought independent recognition for their high-accountability model, senior-level oversight, performance guarantees and zero lock-in contracts. They needed credibility that matched the standard of service they knew they were delivering.
As a small, fast-moving team, Google Ad Guy needed support managing the complex award submissions process. They weren’t sure how to communicate both sides of their story, their rapid business growth and the technical success of their client campaigns, in a way that resonated with judges.
Solution
Green Door Co built an awards strategy that could showcase both the strength of Google Ad Guy’s business model and the results they deliver for clients.
A targeted, two-stream awards strategy
Green Door Co designed a dual approach:
- Agency recognition: entering major business awards that highlight Google Ad Guy’s rapid growth, senior-led model and strong internal culture.
- Campaign excellence: identifying standout client campaigns, including those with exceptional ROI, to enter into industry-specific performance and marketing awards.
Bringing Google Ad Guy’s unique value to life
Green Door Co worked closely with founder Amin Moslehi to unpack the agency’s differentiation, from their unique “performance guarantee” and “no lock-in contract” model to their unusually high-performance outcomes (such as delivering a 1,728% lead increase for a physiotherapy client). These became the backbone of compelling, evidence-driven submissions.
Managing the entire process so the team didn’t have to
With Google Ad Guy’s team already at capacity delivering outstanding results to their clients, Green Door Co handled the heavy lifting: selecting the right awards, gathering information, shaping the narrative, preparing each submission and following them through to awards presentation night.
Value Created
The awards strategy delivered a major shift in how Google Ad Guy was perceived, elevating them from a fast-growing agency to a recognised leader in performance marketing.
Strong credibility and clearer market positioning
Google Ad Guy secured major wins, including Company of the Year at the International Business Awards and multiple PPC campaign awards. Giving them the external proof they needed to confidently approach larger, higher-revenue clients and close the “trust gap” that often holds smaller agencies back.
Recognition from global industry bodies
Success in programs like the Global Search Awards, APAC Search Awards, Netty Awards and Summit Marketing Effectiveness Awards showed that Google Ad Guy’s work stands up on an international stage, reinforcing their reputation as a top-tier performance agency.
Momentum for continued business growth
The shift from “quiet achiever” to celebrated, award-winning agency supported Google Ad Guy’s expansion to more than 200 clients, with ongoing revenue growth projected. The awards are now an asset in positioning the agency as a trusted choice for larger service-based businesses.
