Free Google Ads Audit for Enterprise Accounts
A free Google Ads audit for an enterprise account should connect governance and market scope to the right product, buyer committee, destination, sales stage, contract, payment, and expansion or renewal evidence. Use this worksheet to separate shared account infrastructure from local business rules and client-owned proof.
This is an educational self-service review, not legal, privacy, security, financial, or platform-policy advice. Use approved evidence and consult Google Ads Help and Google Ads policy guidance.
Set governance and value scope
Record business unit, brand, product, region, language, account and manager ownership, agency scope, budget, currency, time zone, sales motion, contract model, date range, and data owners. Define contact, qualified lead, sales acceptance, meeting, opportunity, proposal, contract, invoice, payment, expansion, renewal, churn, and disqualification.
Check access, billing, shared budgets, audiences, analytics, tags, CRM, commerce, call systems, dashboards, vendors, retention, and removal. Do not assume an inherited setting is approved for every region or brand.
Review markets, buyers, and destinations
Map campaigns to business unit, product, use case, market, language, buyer role, page, CRM stage, budget, and owner. Classify searches as problem, category, product, implementation, integration, pricing, comparison, competitor, procurement, support, job, supplier, or irrelevant.
Follow approved journeys on mobile and desktop through ad, page, form, call, demo, technical evaluation, security review, calendar, confirmation, CRM assignment, and sales handoff. Check product, market, role, qualification, availability, pricing, security, privacy, consent, response time, and claim scope.
Verify CRM and enterprise value
Trace click identifiers, consent, analytics, calls, forms, CRM stages, opportunities, proposals, contracts, invoices, payments, refunds, expansions, renewals, and churn. Check event creation, deduplication, timestamps, time zones, attribution windows, currencies, offline imports, retention, and cohort maturity.
Keep expected, booked, invoiced, collected, recurring, expanded, refunded, cancelled, and contribution values separate. Record implementation, support, commissions, delivery, discount, margin, contract timing, renewal, and expansion assumptions. Compare like markets, products, and sales motions.
Review capacity, privacy, and approvals
Compare demand with regional sales coverage, technical evaluation, security review, procurement, implementation, onboarding, support, localization, and service capacity. Review forms, customer lists, remarketing, enhanced conversions, offline conversions, CRM imports, analytics, vendors, access, retention, deletion, and incident procedures.
Check claims about security, compliance, certifications, uptime, performance, customers, savings, integrations, and results by plan, market, deployment model, and date. Preserve source, scope, owner, approval, disclosure, and replacement condition. Escalate legal, privacy, security, procurement, regulatory, and platform-policy questions.
Prioritize and retest
Record business unit, account, market, campaign, query or page, role, evidence, impact, owner, action, approval requirement, expected behavior, and proof condition. Prioritize wrong ownership, broken forms or joins, duplicate events, unsupported regional claims, consent or retention gaps, uncontrolled automation, and demand the organization cannot fulfill.
Repeat the original journey after repair. Preserve query, ad, page, device, market, consent, event IDs, timestamps, expected CRM record, filters, and later outcome. Compare mature cohorts after product, pricing, staffing, localization, procurement, implementation, and sales changes are annotated.
