Im looking for a google ad words expert to help me with one of my client accounts. I have laid out the nature of the clients brands the type of campaign we are looking for in this document: https://bit.ly/4xsClv2

Capital Corp. is looking for an ad agency or individual expert on paid social and paid search ads.
Meta at ~4.8X ROI and $7.88 CPA; Google at ~44.55X ROI and ~3.87% CVR. Monthly media budget is $100,000. The mandate is not “fix a broken account.” It is to scale ROAS at rising contribution profit, grow online sales, and open a franchise-lead engine without diluting unit economics.

Increase profitable online orders across Shop, site, and local profiles while generating qualified franchisee applications. Success is measured on blended ROAS, CPA/MER, location-level sales lift, and cost per franchise-qualified lead—not clicks or reach.

CAPITAL CORP. — PAID MEDIA GROWTH PROPOSAL
DMD Creative / DM Digital Ads
Prepared for: Capital Corp. Leadership
Scope: Paid social + paid search, creative production, marketplace/local systems, franchise lead generation
Recommended starting media budget: $100,000 / month

1. Situation
Capital Corp. is a multi-location brand with 35 operating sites, an active Facebook/Instagram Shop catalog for menu ordering, and Google Business Profile pages for every location. The company already generates strong paid returns and now wants an agency that can scale those returns without sacrificing unit economics—while also building the creative, local, and franchise-acquisition engine required for the next stage of growth.
Current reported baselines:
• Meta: ~4.8X ROI and $7.88 average CPA
• Google Ads: ~44.55X ROI and ~3.87% conversion rate
• Monthly paid media budget: $100,000
Those numbers are not a rescue brief. They are a scale brief. A “good enough” 4.8X Meta account often hides wasted frequency, tired creative, weak catalog signals, and underused local intent. A 44X+ Google account can still leak impression share on the highest-intent queries, under-use Shopping/PMax, and fail to separate customer-order demand from franchisee-applicant demand. The mandate is to raise profitable volume: more online orders, more repeat customers, stronger local pack performance, and a qualified franchise pipeline—without inflating CPA or diluting Google efficiency.

2. Objective
Primary: Increase online sales and contribution profit from paid social and paid search at a $100K monthly spend, with ROAS/ROI rising as spend is deployed more intelligently.
Secondary: Build professional video and influencer assets that feed every paid channel.
Tertiary: Convert franchise interest into qualified applications through dedicated social and search campaigns, without contaminating customer-acquisition accounts.
90-day directional targets (finalized after audit):
• Protect or improve Google ROI while growing converted sessions and Shopping/local share.
• Lift Meta efficiency above the 4.8X baseline through creative velocity, catalog optimization, and tighter audience architecture.
• Establish a measurable franchise cost-per-qualified-application.
• Stand up a reusable video/UGC system so creative is no longer the bottleneck to scale.

3. Why this engagement fits our model
We specialize in accounts that already look strong on paper and still have another gear. Relevant proof points:
• Paisano’s Meta: spend down 4% while sales rose 74% ($2.7M → $4.7M), CPA $8.75 → $5.55, ROAS 4.8X → 8.11X.
• Paisano’s Google: 48X annual baseline rebuilt to 78.8X in 60 days and a sustained 205X for 90 days.
• StatLabs: $8,500 spend produced 14.4X ROAS and doubled an affiliate/partner revenue line.
• Broader partner pattern: ~12.3X average ROAS, 60–80% CPA reductions, 42%+ sales-return lift in the first 45–60 days on many launches.
• Platform credentials: Google Ads Manager, Meta Business Partner / Certified Ads, TikTok Marketing Partner, HubSpot Facebook Ads, SEO Expert, Shopify Partner.
Capital Corp.’s starting Meta CPA ($7.88) and Google ROI (44.55X) sit in the same “already working” zone where most agencies maintain instead of rebuild. That is the work we do.

4. Recommended channel system
Budget is allocated by job, not by habit. A working split for month one (adjusted weekly):
A. Meta + Instagram — customer orders (est. $35K–$45K)
Purchase-optimized campaigns feeding the Facebook/Instagram Shop catalog and site/app order paths. Advantage+ / catalog ads for menu velocity items; prospecting for new guests; retargeting for lapsed orderers and high-AOV combinations. Creative: short conversational video first, static only when it beats video. Measure: purchases, CPA vs $7.88, incremental ROAS vs 4.8X, new vs returning, catalog item ROAS.
B. Google Search + Shopping / PMax — high-intent demand (est. $25K–$35K)
Search captures “near me,” menu, catering, and order-now intent. Shopping/PMax uses a cleaned product/menu feed so Google can promote orderable items, not generic brand queries. Brand terms are protected; non-brand is expanded only when CVR and ROI hold near the 3.87% / 44.55X baseline. Measure: revenue, ROI, CVR, impression share on money terms, Shopping CTR/CVR.
C. YouTube / Google Video — efficient cold demand (est. $8K–$12K)
Pre-roll and in-feed built for 3–5 second hooks, then a single order or franchise CTA. In-market and custom-intent audiences; existing customers excluded from prospecting. Video is not a vanity channel. It is measured to site/shop orders and qualified franchise clicks.
D. TikTok Ads — cold conversion and content engine (est. $8K–$12K)
Native UGC-style spots for menu heroes and limited offers. Spark Ads when organic posts prove retention. Conversion campaigns to Shop/site. Fast creative iteration (new hooks weekly). Measure: CPA, ROAS, thumb-stop rate, purchase volume.
E. Local / GMB layer — 35 locations (funded from Search + Local/PMax)
Each location profile is treated as a conversion asset: categories, photos, products/menu, posts, Q&A, review velocity. Geo-fenced campaigns support the profiles that actually convert to calls, directions, and orders. Multi-location negative-keyword and radius rules prevent sister stores from bidding against each other.
F. Franchise acquisition — separate structure (est. $8K–$15K)
Never mixed with guest-order campaigns. Search themes around franchise ownership, multi-unit opportunity, and brand-specific franchise terms. Meta/YouTube for awareness and lead forms; Search for high-intent applicants. Qualification questions (capital, timeline, territory, operator experience) sit on the form/LP so bidding can train on qualified applications, not brochure downloads.

5. Creative production requirement
Capital Corp. has explicitly requested professional video commercial production plus micro-influencer campaigns. That is not an add-on. At $100K/month, creative fatigue will cap Meta and TikTok before media buying does.
Production system:
• Monthly commercial package: 2–4 hero spots (15s/30s) for YouTube, Meta, and paid social cutdowns.
• Always-on UGC/micro-influencer pipeline: 8–15 creator assets per month, usage rights cleared for ads.
• Menu-item modules: product-first cuts that plug directly into catalog and Shopping creative.
• Franchise module: founder/operator story, unit economics narrative, and “apply” CTA—kept visually distinct from guest ads.
• Testing cadence: hooks, first frames, offers, and end cards rotate weekly; losers are killed inside seven days.

6. Technical foundation (week one)
1 Business Manager / MCC audit: pixels, CAPI, enhanced conversions, domain verification, catalog quality, event match rates.
2 Facebook Shop catalog hygiene: titles, images, prices, availability, collections by meal-part and location where relevant.
3 Merchant/feed alignment for Google Shopping and any local inventory ads.
4 35-location GBP audit: NAP consistency, products, review response SLA, photo cadence.
5 Conversion taxonomy split: Guest Purchase vs Franchise Qualified Application. No blended “lead” that poisons optimization.
6 Reporting stack: weekly CPA/ROAS/ROI, CVR, catalog winners, location-level calls/directions, franchise CPQL.

7. 90-day roadmap
Days 1–14: Audit, tracking rebuild, catalog/feed cleanup, creative brief, franchise funnel spec, media plan lock.
Days 15–45: Launch reconstructed Meta, Search, Shopping/PMax, YouTube, TikTok; first influencer wave; local profile upgrades live.
Days 46–75: Scale winners only; cut waste; expand franchise tests; refresh creative against fatigue.
Days 76–90: Full performance readout vs baselines (4.8X / $7.88 Meta; 44.55X / 3.87% Google). Decision to lock a 6–12 month scale retainer.

8. Governance and economics
Media stay in Capital Corp. accounts. We recommend contribution-margin floors so scale cannot outrun profit. Franchise spend is capped and judged on qualified applications and sales-accepted leads, not form volume. Weekly working session: what moved, why, what changes next week, what creative is required.
Management model (typical for this scope): monthly strategy + optimization retainer plus scoped production/influencer fees. Media of $100K is spent on platforms; production is budgeted separately so ads never starve for new assets.

9. What “best candidate” means on this brief
Capital Corp. does not need a generalist who “runs ads.” It needs one owner who can simultaneously:
• Scale a 4.8X Meta account the way Paisano’s was scaled—efficiency first, then volume.
• Protect and expand a high-ROI Google account instead of breaking it with sloppy PMax.
• Produce video and influencer inventory fast enough for TikTok and YouTube.
• Make 35 GMB pages and a social Shop catalog work as conversion surfaces.
• Build a franchise lead system that does not pollute customer purchase signals.
That is the operating system this proposal installs.

10. Next step
Grant MCC + Meta Business Manager access, Shop catalog admin, YouTube/Google Ads, TikTok Ads, and a sample of 5 location GBPs. Within 10 business days we return a written audit, recommended $100K split, 90-day KPI contract, and production calendar.

Seeking a Google Ads Manager to manage and scale our Google Shopping, Performance Max, and Search campaigns.

We're already seeing strong conversions across our product range and are now looking for an expert to optimize current campaigns, improve feed quality, and unlock international growth potential.

Responsibilities
Manage and optimize Google Shopping and PMAX campaigns
Run weekly budget pacing, asset performance checks, and conversion tracking reviews
Launch and scale campaigns in new markets
Work with the creative team to test new UGC and ad asset types
Improve keyword targeting, segmentation, and feed product titles/descriptions

Collaborate with team to increase campaign-level ROAS and reduce CPA

Intermediate experience in Google Merchant Center – feed setup, approvals, and optimization
Results-driven mindset, able to work independently and report clearly

My Google Merchant Center is already live and fully configured, and every product in my catalogue is listed there. What I’m missing is a set of Google Shopping campaigns that not only launch smoothly but pass Google’s policy checks without delay.

Here’s what I need from you:

• Build the Shopping campaigns inside Google Ads, structuring them so they’re ready for smart bidding and simple scaling later.
• Review my existing feed and Merchant Center settings, fixing any data issues or policy red flags before ads go live.
• Secure final approval of all ads, responding to any disapprovals or account warnings until everything is showing “Eligible” and serving impressions.
• Hand over a concise walkthrough of what you changed—feed rules, custom labels, campaign settings—so I can maintain things moving forward.

You’ll be working with an account that’s already set up, so the focus is on compliance, optimisation, and fast approval rather than basic configuration. If you’ve navigated Google’s Shopping policies before and can demonstrate quick turn-arounds on disapproved items, I’m ready to get started.

Skills: Internet Marketing, Google Adwords, Facebook Marketing, Advertising, Search Engine Marketing, Digital Marketing, Google Shopping, Google Ads

Adwords and Google shopping feed, advise on SM marketing
We require our ad-words account to be overhauled - improve add quality offers appeal and CTR. to target our higher converting products and improve conversions.
What AI options are there?
With increased competition from new advertisers with cheaper products our conversions/revenue has dropped. Our spend has dropped recently so we do not seem to be optimised.
Our adds content need overhauling and refreshing... to improve position and CTR.

I would require meetings to discuss product sales focusing on higher converting products and their Unique Selling points. to combat the competition.
These meetings would ideally include Reviewing our Google analytics to see where we can improve conversions and find some hidden targets.

Colin

Green Kid Crafts is looking for an experienced Awin affiliate marketing specialist to audit, troubleshoot, and optimize our existing affiliate program.

We previously used ShareASale and transitioned to Awin following the acquisition. Our Awin account is active and receiving significant affiliate traffic, but transactions do not appear to be tracking correctly. We need someone who understands both Awin and WooCommerce and can determine what is wrong, fix the tracking setup, and help us get the affiliate program performing again.

Initial scope of work:

Audit our existing Awin account and WooCommerce integration
Diagnose why affiliate clicks are being recorded but transactions are not
Review and verify Awin conversion tracking, including MasterTag/tracking implementation
Test the entire affiliate journey from click through purchase to confirm transactions and commissions are properly recorded
Identify and correct any tracking or configuration issues
Review our migration/setup from ShareASale to Awin for potential problems
Review current affiliates, program settings, commission structure, and overall setup
Recommend improvements to increase affiliate sales and program performance
Provide a clear summary of what was wrong, what was fixed, and any recommended next steps

Required experience:

Demonstrated hands-on experience managing or troubleshooting Awin affiliate programs
Experience integrating Awin with WooCommerce
Strong understanding of affiliate conversion tracking and attribution
Ability to troubleshoot technical tracking issues independently
Experience optimizing established affiliate programs, not just recruiting affiliates

Please include a brief description of your experience with Awin + WooCommerce, examples of similar tracking issues you have resolved, and what you would check first when an Awin account is recording clicks but no transactions.

This will begin as a project to diagnose and correct our current setup, with the potential for ongoing affiliate program management if it is a good fit.

Google Ads & Merchant Center policy diagnostic — Australian veterinary e-commerce

We sell veterinary and pet products in Australia, including parasiticides (NO Prescription edication). We are an APVMA-registered Australian veterinary wholesaler, and the business is run by practising veterinary surgeons.

For roughly two years we have had recurring product disapprovals and asset-group restrictions across Merchant Center and Performance Max. Products are approved, then restricted again weeks later. We currently have an open case with Google's PMax policy team. Multiple support agents have given us different and sometimes contradictory explanations.

We are not looking for campaign management. We want one thing: a clear, written diagnosis of our policy position and what is and is not achievable.

Scope — fixed fee, 10 hours

Review our Merchant Center account, product feed and Performance Max asset groups
Establish which policies are actually being applied to which products, and why
Assess whether the enforcement we are seeing is consistent with how comparable Australian retailers are treated
Deliver a written assessment: what is permanently excluded, what is recoverable, and the specific steps for each
One call to walk us through it

What we want to see in your proposal

Do not describe your general Google Ads process. Instead:

Describe a restricted-category account in Australia where you got previously disapproved products approved. What was the category, what was the actual cause, and what changed it?
In your understanding, what is Google's current position on Shopping ads for pet pharmaceuticals in Australia?
How do you interpret Australian S3 and S4 scheduling in relation to Google's advertising policies?

Proposals that do not answer all three will not be reviewed.

After this engagement

If the diagnosis is sound, there is likely ongoing work — a few hours a quarter, reviewing policy status and handling anything new. We intend to run the account ourselves.

Australian-based, or an Australian who has worked in this market. You must have handled Australian regulatory categories directly.

We recently launched ruti ruti, a premium DTC clip-in hair extension brand on Shopify, and we're looking for an experienced freelance e-commerce growth/SEO specialist to help us grow our online presence and reach customers who don't already know our brand.

Our biggest priority right now is organic discovery and customer acquisition. We want to improve how ruti ruti appears in Google Search and Google Shopping/free listings and begin ranking for relevant non-branded searches such as clip-in hair extensions, hair extensions for fine/thin hair, extensions for volume, and other high-intent searches.

We're looking for someone who can help us determine where we should be focusing our marketing efforts at this early stage, not simply provide an SEO audit.

Areas we'd like help with include:

Shopify SEO and site optimization
Keyword and competitor research
Google Search Console and Google Merchant Center
Product, collection and landing-page optimization
Organic Google Shopping visibility
Content/SEO strategy
Internal linking and technical SEO
Backlink, PR and organic growth opportunities
Identifying the highest-impact marketing opportunities for a newly launched DTC brand
Tracking what's actually driving qualified traffic and sales

We're a small, hands-on team, so we're looking for someone who can both recommend a strategy and help implement it. We don't need a large agency or a generic marketing plan.

Experience with Shopify and DTC e-commerce is important, and experience with beauty, hair, fashion or premium consumer brands is a major plus.

When applying, please tell us briefly:

1. What would you prioritize during your first 30–60 days with a newly launched brand like ours?

We need an Australian Agency or freelancer to manage our Google Ads account for pet products in Australia.

The role requires experience with Google Ads and a strong understanding of local regulations, especially around drug and animal restrictions for parasiticides.
The position requires someone who has access to Google Australia for our specific veterinary needs based on prescription medication laws. Due to Australian over-the-counter products being classified as prescription-only medicine in the USA, Google has some pretty strong restrictions on some of our sale items.
We are looking for someone with prior experience in this market and a solid track record managing similar accounts.

The right person should be comfortable doing detailed operational work, but also able to spot issues, research solutions and suggest improvements rather than waiting for instructions on every small task.

This will begin as a part-time hourly role, approximately 25 hours per week, but there is strong potential for it to develop into a long-term full-time position for the right person.

When applying, please include:

1) Links to 2 to 3 Shopify stores you have personally worked on and explain exactly what you were responsible for.

We’re looking for an experienced Google Ads specialist to build and optimize a high-converting Search campaign focused on generating qualified life-insurance phone calls at a low cost. The ideal freelancer will not only manage the campaign but also teach us the strategy and system as they build it, so we can understand, manage, and scale the campaign ourselves. Experience with lead generation, conversion-focused campaigns, and clear communication is important.

We are looking for an experienced Google Ads specialist with a strong focus on Google Shopping to help us build and scale our WooCommerce-based e-commerce store in the Dutch market (The Netherlands).

We sell food supplements and nutritional products, with product margins ranging from approximately 15% to 35%. Because of these relatively tight margins, profitability and efficient campaign management are extremely important.

### Current situation

The webshop is currently still relatively small and generates approximately 30–60 orders per month, with an average order value of around €100.

At the moment, no Google Ads or Google Merchant Center accounts have been created yet. We are therefore looking for a specialist who can help us set up the entire Google advertising infrastructure from scratch and build a strong foundation for future growth.

This includes, where necessary:

* Setting up Google Ads
* Setting up Google Merchant Center
* Setting up and optimising the product feed
* Configuring conversion tracking
* Connecting Google Ads, GA4 and WooCommerce
* Ensuring accurate purchase and revenue tracking
* Creating the right campaign structure
* Launching and managing Google Shopping / Performance Max campaigns
* Continuously analysing and improving performance

We are looking for someone who can take ownership of this process and advise us on the best setup from the beginning.

### What we are looking for

We are looking for someone with proven experience in:

* Google Shopping and Performance Max campaigns
* Building and scaling e-commerce Google Ads accounts
* WooCommerce
* Google Merchant Center and product feed optimisation
* Google Ads conversion tracking and GA4
* Scaling profitable Shopping campaigns
* Campaign structure, bidding strategies and budget allocation
* Identifying profitable vs. unprofitable products
* Product-level performance analysis
* A/B testing and continuous campaign optimisation

Experience with supplements, health products, nutrition or other competitive e-commerce markets is a strong plus.

### Our situation

* Market: The Netherlands
* Platform: WooCommerce
* Niche: Food supplements / nutritional products
* Product margins: Approximately 15%–35%
* Current order volume: Approximately 30–60 orders per month
* Average order value: Approximately €100
* Google Ads account: Not yet created
* Google Merchant Center account: Not yet created
* Current stage: Small webshop with significant room for growth
* Goal: Build a profitable and scalable Google Shopping acquisition channel

### What we expect from you

We are looking for more than someone who simply launches a Performance Max campaign and lets Google's automation do the rest.

Because our product margins range between 15% and 35%, you need to understand the relationship between:

Product margin → advertising cost → conversion rate → AOV → ROAS → actual profit

We want someone who can help us build the account correctly from the start and make data-driven decisions about:

* Which products should receive more advertising budget
* Which products are profitable to advertise
* Which products should be reduced or excluded
* How campaigns should be structured
* How budgets should be allocated
* When and how the account should be scaled

Our goal is profitable growth, not simply generating as much revenue as possible.

We are especially interested in someone who has experience taking a relatively small e-commerce business and building a Google Shopping strategy that can gradually scale.

### Application

Please start your proposal with “SHOPPING” so we know you have read the full job description.

Please also briefly answer the following questions:

1. What is your experience with Google Shopping and Performance Max?
2. Have you previously built a Google Ads and Merchant Center setup from scratch for an e-commerce business?
3. Have you managed e-commerce accounts with relatively low product margins (approximately 15–35%)?
4. Have you successfully scaled a small e-commerce account from a similar starting point?
5. How would you approach building and scaling Google Shopping for a supplement webshop in the Dutch market?
6. What would your recommended setup process look like during the first 30–60 days?
7. What metrics do you focus on when determining whether a Shopping campaign is actually profitable?
8. Please provide examples of e-commerce accounts you have managed and the results you achieved, where possible.

We are looking for a hands-on Google Ads specialist who can take ownership of the setup and management of the account, think commercially, communicate clearly and help us build a profitable long-term growth channel through Google Shopping.

We are looking for an experienced Meta & Google E-Commerce Technical Specialist to urgently audit, repair and complete the advertising infrastructure for SPIKE, an independent multi-brand fashion and footwear retailer in Cyprus established in 2003.

Hey bro, how are you! I want you tos set up for me my Google ads

We are looking for a senior WooCommerce developer with genuine hands-on experience debugging Google Merchant Center / Google for WooCommerce (formerly Google Listings & Ads) product-price synchronisation issues.

This is not a Google Ads management, SEO, basic Merchant Center setup, or general WordPress job.

I specifically need someone who understands the technical path between:

WooCommerce product pricing
Google for WooCommerce / Google Listings & Ads (GLA)
Google Merchant Center
Content API / Merchant API
WordPress Action Scheduler / WP-Cron
WooCommerce price hooks/filters
Custom pricing/API integrations
PHP-level debugging

I already have an experienced WooCommerce developer investigating the issue. His work has been excellent and he is actively working on it.

However, because this pricing problem is currently affecting our Google Shopping advertising and ability to generate sales, I would like a second experienced pair of eyes with specific WooCommerce → Google Merchant Center integration experience.

The initial engagement will be diagnosis/review only.

I do not want two developers simultaneously making changes to the production website. I want an independent technical assessment first.

If your investigation identifies the cause and we agree on the solution, I would be happy to extend the contract to implementation and potentially ongoing/long-term WooCommerce development work.

Current problem

We operate a WooCommerce store with approximately 130 products and a custom pricing setup that uses Amazon pricing data as part of calculating our selling prices.

WooCommerce and the customer-facing website can currently contain the correct customer-facing prices.

However, we are experiencing an intermittent issue where Google Merchant Center receives the regular price correctly but loses or fails to receive the WooCommerce sale_price for some products.

For example, one product should contain:

Regular price: £238.68
Sale/customer-facing price: £187.99

Following certain synchronisations, Merchant Center correctly receives both values:

price = £238.68
sale_price = £187.99

However, later the sale_price can disappear from Merchant Center, leaving only the £238.68 regular price.

Google Shopping/Ads can therefore advertise the wrong price even though the website itself is displaying the correct customer-facing price.

This behaviour is inconsistent across the catalogue.

At one point, approximately 35–40% of products had the correct sale price populated in Merchant Center while the remainder did not.

We have also observed an important pattern:

Products can become correct following one scheduled synchronisation and subsequently become incorrect again.

Relevant history – WooCommerce performance work

There is important background that may or may not be related.

Earlier this year, our existing developer carried out a detailed WooCommerce performance audit of the website.

The audit identified significant backend activity, including unusually heavy scheduled/background processing associated with Google Listings & Ads / Google for WooCommerce.

Following the audit, several performance/backend changes were implemented to improve the reliability and performance of the website.

This included work relating to areas such as:

WordPress/WooCommerce scheduled jobs
Action Scheduler / cron behaviour
Google for WooCommerce synchronisation activity
Caching/performance
Database/query performance
Other WooCommerce backend optimisation

The performance work itself successfully improved the website.

I want to make clear that I am not claiming these changes caused the subsequent pricing problems.

However, the chronology is relevant because I was not experiencing these recurring pricing/synchronisation problems before this period of backend work.

I therefore want the relationship, if any, independently investigated rather than assumed.

First pricing problem – WooCommerce prices dropping approximately 20%

After the performance/backend work, we began experiencing a recurring WooCommerce pricing issue.

Approximately every 3–4 days, virtually all of our in-stock products would suddenly drop in price by roughly 20%.

Our external Amazon pricing system/database still contained the correct calculated prices, but the prices actually stored/displayed by WooCommerce became incorrect.

Importantly, manually rerunning our price-sync jobs would immediately restore the correct WooCommerce prices.

Our existing developer investigated this and was able to reproduce the behaviour on staging.

The investigation initially identified behaviour involving the Import Products from Amazon plugin.

Further investigation indicated that there appeared to be a loop/interference between our Amazon pricing synchronisation and an older discount/pricing plugin.

During certain price reads, the discount logic appeared capable of returning a figure approximately 20% too low. The synchronisation process could then save that value back into WooCommerce.

This explained why:

many products changed at approximately the same time;
the change was approximately the same percentage;
our external pricing system still contained the correct values; and
manually rerunning the price synchronisation immediately corrected WooCommerce.

Changes were subsequently made to prevent the discount logic from affecting those price reads.

The recurring ~20% WooCommerce price-drop problem now appears to have been resolved.

What happened afterwards – Google Merchant Center mismatch

After the WooCommerce pricing problem was corrected, we subsequently began experiencing the current Google Merchant Center pricing problem.

The distinction is important:

Previously, WooCommerce itself was receiving/storing incorrect prices.

Now, WooCommerce and the customer-facing website can have the correct price, while Google Merchant Center receives a different representation of the product.

In particular, Merchant Center may receive the regular price but fail to retain/receive sale_price.

For some products, a scheduled sync restores the correct sale_price.

Later, something appears capable of causing that sale price to disappear again.

What our existing developer has found so far

Our current developer has confirmed that scheduled feed synchronisation is capable of producing the correct sale prices.

For example, he verified products where Merchant Center correctly received the expected customer-facing sale_price.

However, something subsequently appears capable of stripping, omitting or failing to supply sale_price for certain products.

His current working theory is that Google may be obtaining product data from the website/WooCommerce through another channel or synchronisation path that isn't seeing the discount/sale price correctly, triggering later updates with different pricing data.

He has now added logging intended to identify which channel/process is responsible.

I do not want applicants simply to accept this theory.

I want an independent senior developer to review the evidence and architecture and reach their own technical conclusion.

Why I am providing the full history

The chronology currently looks roughly like this:

WooCommerce performance/backend optimisation

→ Recurring ~20% WooCommerce pricing problem

→ Pricing-read/discount interaction identified and changed

→ WooCommerce pricing stabilised

→ Intermittent Google Merchant Center sale_price problem

This sequence may be connected or it may be coincidental.

I specifically do not want someone to assume causation simply because of the chronology.

Instead, I want someone capable of determining whether changes involving WooCommerce price getters/hooks, discount logic, our Amazon synchronisation, Action Scheduler/cron, Google for WooCommerce/GLA or another product-data pathway could result in different systems receiving different representations of the same WooCommerce product price.

What I need investigated

The initial task is diagnosis/review.

I can provide:

Screenshots and examples
Merchant Center access if required
Previous developer findings
The previous WooCommerce performance audit
Examples of affected products
Details of the Amazon pricing integration
Merchant Center product exports
Relevant information from the existing developer's investigation

I would like you to determine:

Every process/channel capable of supplying or updating our product pricing in Google Merchant Center.
Why sale_price is present following some synchronisations but missing following others.
Whether the issue originates from:
WooCommerce itself
Google for WooCommerce / GLA
Content API / Merchant API
WooCommerce hooks or filters
Our custom Amazon pricing integration
The previous discount/pricing logic
Action Scheduler / WP-Cron
Google's own website/product-data retrieval
Cached/stale product data
Or an interaction between multiple systems.
Whether the previous WooCommerce pricing issue and the current Merchant Center issue are technically connected.
Exactly what process is responsible for causing Merchant Center to lose/fail to receive sale_price.
What you recommend as a permanent fix.
How the pricing architecture could be made more reliable so that WooCommerce, the website, Merchant Center, Google Shopping and other integrations consistently receive the same intended customer-facing price.
Experience I'm specifically looking for

Ideally, you have personally debugged problems involving several of the following:

WooCommerce regular_price, sale_price and active _price
WooCommerce price getters, hooks and filters
Google for WooCommerce / Google Listings & Ads
Google Merchant Center
Content API / Merchant API
WooCommerce → Google product synchronisation
WordPress Action Scheduler
WP-Cron
Custom/dynamic WooCommerce pricing
REST APIs
Third-party WooCommerce integrations
PHP-level debugging and instrumentation
WooCommerce product metadata
Background/scheduled product updates
Intermittent product-feed/synchronisation problems

I am particularly interested in developers who have previously dealt with situations where Merchant Center intermittently receives the regular price but loses, overwrites or fails to receive sale_price.

Please do NOT apply if...

Your experience is primarily:

Google Ads campaign management
PPC
SEO
Basic Merchant Center account setup
Basic product-feed configuration
General WordPress website building
Installing/configuring WooCommerce plugins

This problem requires someone comfortable going underneath the plugin interfaces and tracing behaviour at the WooCommerce/PHP/API/Action Scheduler level.

Initial engagement

This will initially be an hourly diagnosis/review engagement.

I would prefer to begin with approximately 3–5 hours of investigation.

At this stage, I primarily want you to:

Investigate → identify likely/root cause → document your findings → recommend the fix.

Please do not make changes to the production pricing system without my approval.

My existing developer is still actively investigating the issue, so I do not want two people independently modifying the same system at the same time.

If your diagnosis identifies the problem and we agree on the approach, I can then authorise implementation.

There is also the possibility of a long-term working relationship for someone with strong WooCommerce/backend/integration expertise.

IMPORTANT – please answer this when applying

Please start your proposal by answering the following:

Have you personally debugged a WooCommerce → Google Merchant Center issue where sale_price was intermittently missing, overwritten, removed or different depending on the sync/API path?

If yes, briefly explain:

What caused it, how you identified it, and how you fixed it.

Then please explain how you would approach identifying:

Which WooCommerce hook, scheduled action, API request, Google for WooCommerce process or other synchronisation path is causing sale_price to disappear in this case?

Please be specific.

I'm much more interested in your actual debugging methodology and relevant experience than a generic proposal about how many years you've worked with WordPress.
