How do we give account access safely — MCC invite or direct login?

Always an MCC invite, never a shared login. Your manager sends an invitation from their Google Ads Manager (MCC) account and you accept it from your own admin. That keeps the account under your ownership, logs every change under a named user, and lets you revoke access in a single click if the engagement ends. Shared logins break multi-factor auth, create audit gaps, and sometimes trigger account suspensions for suspicious sign-in activity. If you already have an agency MCC linked, we can run alongside it without conflict.

What is a realistic ROAS target and how long until we hit it?

Realistic targets depend on your margin, average order value, and sales cycle. Ecommerce with healthy margins often runs at 3–5x ROAS on steady-state search, while lead-gen accounts track cost-per-qualified-lead instead. Your manager will set the baseline from your current data in week one, propose a target based on what the account can actually support, and report weekly against it. Expect 4–6 weeks to work through wasted spend and reach a stable baseline, then steady improvement from there. Anyone promising 10x ROAS in week one without looking at your data is guessing.

What happens if our Google Ads account gets suspended?

Suspensions usually come from landing page policy, misrepresentation, or payment verification issues — not day-to-day campaign work. Your manager runs a compliance pre-check against Google Ads policies during the week one audit and flags any risk areas on your site or offer before launching new campaigns. If a suspension happens during the engagement, your manager drafts the appeal, gathers supporting documentation, and handles communication with Google support. Most appeals resolve in 3–7 business days when the underlying issue is fixed properly.

How do you make sure conversion tracking is actually accurate?

Conversion tracking gets audited during week one against GA4, Google Tag Manager, and your CRM. Your manager checks for duplicate conversion firing, missing enhanced conversions, broken cross-domain tracking, and misattributed offline conversions. For lead-gen accounts we recommend sending qualified-lead and closed-won data back into Google Ads through offline conversion import so bidding optimizes against real revenue, not form fills. For ecommerce we verify purchase events fire once, carry transaction ID and value, and match what Shopify or your platform reports.

How do you protect us from budget overruns and runaway spend?

Every campaign launches with a daily budget cap, a shared budget if it makes sense, and an account-level alert that fires the moment daily spend deviates more than 20% from baseline. Bid strategy changes roll out one campaign at a time with a 7-day observation window before broader application. Your manager never shifts budgets above your written monthly ceiling without written approval, and weekly reports show spend-to-date against target so you never get surprised by a month-end bill. Mistakes happen — structural guardrails keep them small.

How does timezone work between Boston and an offshore virtual assistant?

Your offshore hire overlaps your Boston workday from about 9am to 3pm ET, covering morning lab meetings, grant prep, and client calls. Data entry, CRM cleanup, and document prep run async overnight and are waiting when you walk into the office.

Do you work with Boston biotech, SaaS, and edtech companies?

Yes. Most Boston clients are biotech and pharma teams in Kendall Square and Cambridge, SaaS and edtech startups in the Seaport and Fort Point, and hospital research groups in Longwood. We staff grant admin, lab ops support, CRM management, and customer success roles tuned to those workflows.

How fast can a Boston business start offshore hiring?

Boston teams move on grant cycles, funding tranches, and product milestones. Book a 15-minute intro, tell us the role, and we shortlist 3 vetted candidates within 5 business days. Most Boston clients interview on day 6 and onboard by day 10, often in time for the next milestone review.

How does offshore hiring compare to Boston's local talent market?

Boston talent is among the most expensive in the country, especially in biotech and SaaS. A clinical research coordinator near Kendall closes at $78,000–$95,000 base, a SaaS customer success lead in the Seaport runs $105,000–$130,000, and lab operations coordinators at MIT-adjacent biotechs start above $80,000. Offshore hiring delivers comparable clinical coordination, grant admin, and customer success support in 5 business days at roughly 30 percent of loaded Boston cost. For clinical-stage biotechs trying to survive the post-2022 reset, that ratio is the difference between making it to the next milestone and not.

Do Boston businesses have any special requirements for offshore hires?

Offshore contractors are not US tax residents, so Boston businesses do not withhold federal or Massachusetts state income tax, do not pay MA unemployment or paid family medical leave, and do not file W-2s. The standard form is a W-8BEN collected at engagement (not a W-9, which is for US persons) governed by an independent contractor agreement. Massachusetts Independent Contractor Law (the so-called ABC test) applies to US-based workers; it does not affect offshore engagements where the worker is performing services entirely outside Massachusetts. Most Boston clients route payments through us so they never deal with international wires or DOR filings directly.
