Bruno Matos, paid media freelancer

Three platforms, one account

I don't sell “just Google” or “just Meta”

Each platform has a role in the funnel. Treating them in isolation leaves money on the table. I run all three as one account — unified tracking, coherent attribution, margin-aware budget split.

How we can work together

Five engagement types

Free written audit

PDF in 24 business hours. No mandatory call. The fastest way to see how I think.

Hourly advisory

Structured calls for founders or marketing leads validating strategy, tracking setup, hiring decisions.

Written audit (paid, deep)

Comprehensive 20-30 page audit with prioritised recommendations. For accounts spending €20k+/month.

3-6 month contract

Fractional paid media leadership while you hire, restructure or scale. Senior operator on the keyboard.

Senior full-time role

UK/IE/remote-EU. Open to talking when the role and the team are right.

Quick answers

Before you ask

+What kind of paid media freelancer are you?

Senior operator hands-on with Google Ads, Meta Ads and LinkedIn Ads since 2021. €500,000+ ad spend managed across 22+ brands in e-commerce, B2B lead gen, fitness, retail and healthcare. Master's in Marketing. Currently full-time at SpartAds (Portugal); available for select international engagements outside Portugal.

+What engagement types do you accept?

Full-time roles (UK/IE/remote-EU), 3-6 month contracts, fractional paid media leadership, written audits (free, 24h), and hourly advisory. I don't take Portugal-based retainers (those go to SpartAds) or pure performance/rev-share deals.

+Why Lisbon-based for UK/IE work?

Same timezone (UTC+0/+1). 100% overlap with UK and Irish working hours. Lower cost base than London freelancers without quality compromise. Remote-first since 2021 — already worked across Portugal, Spain, Iceland and multi-market accounts.

+How fast can you start?

Audits: same week. Contracts and advisory: typically 2-3 weeks notice for kickoff. Full-time roles: standard notice depending on engagement context. For urgent gaps (CMO maternity cover, sudden hire departure), I can move faster.

+What's your day rate?

Discussed per engagement based on scope. Audit-first approach: I'd rather see your account first and propose something specific than quote in the dark. Hourly advisory £100-200/hour for senior operators is the market context.

+Do you sign NDAs?

Yes. Default position is mutual NDA for any audit or proposal that requires account access. I sign client-side NDAs without issue. Account data stays confidential — I only share aggregate learnings publicly on the blog when explicitly approved.
