About us

The agency for trade businesses that want to see results.

We do two things: Google Ads and websites. And we do them better than an agency that does five. From Geldrop, near Eindhoven, for trade businesses across the Netherlands.

Focused. Honest. Direct.

ForthScaling was founded by Martijn Vervoort on a simple idea: most agencies try to do too much, and clients pay for the mediocrity that comes with it. We picked the two levers that actually move revenue for a trade business: targeted traffic through Google Ads, and a website that turns that traffic into enquiries. That is the whole menu.

We are a Shopify Partner and also build on WordPress. Our clients range from a flooring specialist in the east of the Netherlands to an office furniture store. Same principles, same approach, and always direct contact with the person running your project.

How we work

Four principles every project runs on.

These are not poster slogans, they are how we actually operate. If a project does not tick all four, we do not take it on.

  1. Principle · 01

    We only do what we are best at

    Two services: Google Ads and websites. No social ads, no standalone SEO packages, no thirty add-ons. Depth over spread.

  2. Principle · 02

    Measure, do not guess

    We trace every enquiry back to the campaign or page it came from. That way we decide on numbers, not on gut feeling.

  3. Principle · 03

    No lock-ins, no surprises

    You get one quote up front with everything in it. You are not locked in, and your domain and your website stay yours.

  4. Principle · 04

    Direct access, always

    You talk to the strategist running your project, not a junior account manager. Call or email, and you get the person doing the work.

Who we work with

From tradesperson to online store, and everything in between.

Our clients differ in trade, budget and stage. The approach stays the same: the right ad in front of the right customer, on a page that wins enquiries.
