Shawn Shadkam, MBA

PPC Account Manager at Bonza Marketing


With over 7 years of experience and specialization in Pay-Per-Click advertising, I am the PCC account manager and founder of Bonza Marketing. I come from an engineering background which drives my passion for numbers and metrics. I combine my analytical skills with extensive market research skills which I developed in my MBA program to provide measurable results for my clients.

I along with my team at Bonza Marketing have improved conversions from 35% to 175% for dozens of SEM accounts in several verticals including: Tech Sector, Travel, E-commerce, Manufacturing, Transportation, Medical, Entertainment and many other industries. We specialize in PPC account management for multiple platforms including: Google AdWords, Bing Ads, Facebook Ads, Twitter Ads, and LinkedIn Ads. We manage accounts for small to enterprise level businesses with annual advertising spends from $20,000 to over one million dollars.

I’m a big believer in the hands on approach to PPC management, that’s why my team and I spent significant time analyzing and making decisions for each account and only use automation to speed up routine tasks. I also love teaching others about my passion, that’s why I frequently present at local meet ups and guest lecture the digital advertising class at California State University, Fullerton.
