The Problem

Most ad budgets leak. We plug the holes.

Most local businesses running their own ads pay for clicks that never call. It's rarely the budget. It's five small leaks, and each one is easy to fix.

The 5 leaks
  1. 01Leak

    Wrong searches

    Ads show for "free" and "DIY" searches, or to people outside your area.

    ✓We block junk searches and lock ads to your service area.
  2. 02Leak

    Generic ads

    The ad says "quality service". So does everyone else.

    ✓Each ad names the job, the city and the offer.
  3. 03Leak

    Homepage clicks

    People land on the homepage and leave without calling.

    ✓Every ad gets its own page with one big call button.
  4. 04Leak

    Slow replies

    The lead waits hours. By then they booked someone else.

    ✓Instant text back, and the lead goes straight to your phone.
  5. 05Leak

    No tracking

    You can't tell which ad brought the job, so you can't fix it.

    ✓Every call and form is tied to the ad that brought it.
Case Studies

Real results from local ads

We run local ads that remove the guesswork from growth. Instead of relying on referrals or slow periods, you gain control over lead volume and timing — ads become a predictable driver of calls and bookings when supported by the right system.

Arcadia Blinds — window treatments showroom −46% cost per lead
Window Treatments · Dallas

Turning ad spend into a steady pipeline for Arcadia Blinds

Arcadia relied on referrals and slow seasons. New Google and Meta campaigns with their own landing pages and call tracking made leads steady and easy to measure.

PDI Duct — industrial duct manufacturer +3× quote requests
Industrial Manufacturing · Texas

Getting engineers to ask for quotes, not just browse

PDI's ads sent people to a homepage that buried the specs. We built spec-first landing pages and search ads for exact product terms, so buyers asked for quotes.

RNR Tire Express — tire & wheel store +38% store visits

Seasonal ads that fill the shop when it counts

RNR's promos ran everywhere at once. We split ads by store and season, added call buttons and map ads, and timed spend to the weeks people buy tires.

Our Experience

What running local ads has taught us

We’ve run Google and Meta ads for blinds shops, electricians, duct makers, tire shops and more. Here’s what we know works, and it’s built into every account we take on.

01

Calls beat forms for urgent jobs

When the AC is out or a pipe bursts, people call. So we run call ads and put a tap-to-call button first on every page.

02

Most waste hides in the wrong zip codes

A flat city radius pays for clicks from people you don’t serve. We set your area zip by zip, and cut the ones that never book.

03

The first business to call back usually wins

People ask two or three companies. We set up an instant text back and a call alert, so you’re first, even after hours.

04

Ads don’t work on a home page

Send a "blackout shades" search to a general home page and most leave. Each ad gets its own page that says exactly what they searched.

05

Clicks don’t pay bills. Booked jobs do.

We track every call and form back to the ad that brought it in, then spend more on the ads that turn into real jobs.

06

Slow months are planned, not suffered

We raise spend before your busy season and pull back after, using what we learned from the year before.

Google Ads vs. Meta Ads

Different jobs, both worth doing. Most accounts run both once budget allows.

G

Google Search Ads

Captures people actively searching for your service right now — "emergency AC repair near me," "licensed electrician [city]." Highest intent, often the fastest path to a booked job.

✓Best for immediate, high-intent demand
✓Strong for emergency & urgent services
✓Typically higher cost per click
M

Meta Ads (Facebook & Instagram)

Builds awareness and captures demand before someone searches — seasonal promotions, financing offers, before/after project photos. Lower cost per click, great for staying top of mind in your service area.

✓Best for offers, promotions & brand recall
✓Strong visual storytelling (photos, video)
✓Typically lower cost per click
Tactics We Use

The plays we run in every account

No secret tricks. Just 12 things done well, every week, from the first search to the booked job.

01

Get found

Show up for the right people, in the right places.

✓

Exact-match local searches

We bid on what buyers type, like "blinds installer Plano", not broad words that bring tire-kickers.

✓

Zip-by-zip service area

Your ads only show where you actually work. Far-off or low-value areas get cut or bid down.

✓

Blocked-search lists

Hundreds of "no" words (jobs, DIY, free, cheap) so you stop paying for clicks that never buy.

✓

Google Local Services Ads

The "Google Guaranteed" spot at the top. Pay per lead, not per click. We set it up and manage it.

A Real Campaign

Cutting cost per lead in half for Arcadia Blinds

Same account referenced in the funnel above — here's exactly what changed.

Arcadia Blinds — installer fitting custom window blinds
$97 → $52 CPL 6 weeks
1
Targeting

Rebuilt geo-targeting around Arcadia Blinds' actual service radius across the Dallas–Fort Worth metro instead of a flat city-wide radius — cut wasted spend in outlying zones by 24%.

2
Creative

Replaced generic "custom window treatments" copy with specific ad text matching real search terms — "blackout blinds installation," "free in-home measurement" — lifting click-through rate 1.3×.

3
Landing page

Sent traffic to a dedicated landing page (not the homepage) with a single call-to-action and click-to-call button above the fold — form completion rate nearly doubled.

4
Result

Cost per lead dropped from $97 to $52 over 6 weeks on the same monthly budget — 132 leads in the most recent month, up from 86.

FAQ

Questions about paid local ads

How much should I budget for Google and Meta ads?+
Most local service businesses start seeing consistent lead flow at $1,500 to $3,000 per month in ad spend, on top of management. We size the budget to your service area and goals during a free ads review, and never lock you into spend you haven't approved.
What does ad management cost?+
Management starts at $750 per month, separate from ad spend. Pricing scales with the number of campaigns, platforms, and locations you run.
How long until I see results?+
Google Search ads can generate calls within days of launch. Meta Ads typically need 1 to 2 weeks of delivery data before optimization kicks in. Most accounts hit a stable cost per lead by week 3 to 4.
What is the difference between Google Ads and Meta Ads for my business?+
Google Ads captures people actively searching for your service right now — higher intent, often higher cost per click. Meta Ads builds awareness and captures demand before someone searches — lower cost per click, used for offers, promotions, and brand recall. Most local service businesses benefit from running both.
Do I need a new website to run ads?+
Not always. If your current site loads fast and has a clear call to action, we can run ads to it. If it's slow or unclear, we'll recommend a dedicated landing page before spending on traffic — sending paid clicks to a weak page wastes budget.
Can I cancel if it's not working?+
Yes. We run month to month with no long-term contract. You keep the ad accounts either way — they are yours, not ours.
How is this different from doing it myself or hiring a freelancer?+
DIY and freelancers can launch a campaign, but ongoing optimization, conversion tracking, and landing page alignment are what actually lower cost per lead over time. We treat the account as a system that improves every week, not a one-time setup.
How do you report on ad performance?+
You get a live dashboard showing spend, leads, cost per lead, and (when call tracking is connected) which calls and bookings came from which campaign — plus a monthly review call to walk through what changed and why.
