Google Ads Management – Victoria BC

Stop paying for clicks that never become calls

Most Google Ads campaigns for small businesses are set up once and left to bleed budget. We build high-intent campaigns with proper call tracking so every dollar is accountable — and you always know exactly what your ads are generating.

Your competitors are getting the calls — your ads are getting the clicks

Clicks don't pay the bills. Calls do. The biggest problem with most Google Ads campaigns isn't the budget — it's that nobody knows which ads are actually driving phone calls versus which ones are just burning money on tire-kickers.

We fix that by building campaigns around call tracking from day one. You'll see exactly which keywords, ads, and campaigns are generating real customers — and we'll cut everything that isn't.

Full call tracking — every inbound call is attributed to the exact keyword and ad that drove it

No wasted budget — negative keywords, tight geo-targeting, and ongoing bid optimisation

Transparent monthly reports — calls, cost per lead, and campaign performance — no vanity metrics

Your budget goes to Google — our management fee is always separate and clearly itemised

Campaign types

The right campaign for every type of customer

Not all Google Ads are created equal. We match campaign types to your business goals and the way your customers actually search.

Search Campaigns

Text ads that appear when someone types your exact service into Google. The highest-intent traffic available — people who are actively searching for what you offer right now.

Call-Only Campaigns

Mobile ads with a single goal — a phone call. Perfect for emergency services, trades, and any business where a conversation is the first step. No website visit required.

Performance Max

Google's AI-driven campaigns that show your ads across Search, Maps, YouTube, Gmail, and the Display Network. Best suited for businesses with strong call tracking data to feed the algorithm.

Local Service Ads

Google-verified badges that appear above standard ads for service businesses. Pay per lead, not per click. Excellent for home services, legal, healthcare, and other verified categories.

What's included

Full-service management — not just campaign setup

We don't just launch campaigns and collect a fee. Active management means your budget is continuously optimised based on real call data.

Call tracking setup

WhatConverts or similar platform configured so every call is attributed to the exact campaign, keyword, and ad that drove it.

Keyword research

In-depth research to find the exact terms your customers use when they're ready to buy — and aggressive negative keyword lists to filter out waste.

Ad copywriting

Multiple ad variations written and tested per campaign, with extensions (sitelinks, callouts, call extensions) configured for maximum visibility.

Geo-targeting

Ads are shown only to people in your actual service area — not the whole province. Budget is never wasted on clicks from outside your coverage zone.

Monthly reporting

Clear monthly reports showing calls generated, cost per call, campaign performance, and what we're doing next — no dashboards full of metrics that don't matter.

Ongoing optimisation

Weekly bid adjustments, A/B testing, search term reviews, and quality score improvements. Campaigns get better over time, not stagnant.

Our process

How we set up and manage your campaigns

A structured onboarding process followed by active monthly management — so your campaigns improve continuously rather than sitting on autopilot.

01

Audit & strategy

If you're already running ads, we audit your account to identify wasted spend and missed opportunities. If you're starting fresh, we research your market, competitors, and the keywords your customers use when they're ready to call. Either way, we build a strategy before spending a single dollar.

02

Call tracking setup

Before any campaign goes live, we implement call tracking. This is non-negotiable — without it, we're flying blind. We configure WhatConverts (or your preferred platform) with dynamic number insertion so every call is tied back to the exact keyword and ad that drove it.

03

Campaign build & launch

We build campaigns structured by service type, write multiple ad variations per ad group, configure all extensions, set up geo-targeting to your exact service area, and implement a thorough negative keyword list. Campaigns are reviewed and approved by you before going live.

04

Active monthly management

Every month: review search term reports, add new negatives, adjust bids based on call data, test new ad copy, and review quality scores. The goal is a steadily improving cost per call over time — not a set-it-and-forget-it campaign that burns budget on autopilot.

FAQ

Common questions about Google Ads

For most local service businesses in Victoria, a meaningful starting budget is $1,000–$3,000/month in ad spend. This is separate from management fees, which go directly to Google. We'll recommend a budget based on your market, competition level, and goals — and we'll tell you honestly if Google Ads isn't cost-effective for your specific situation.
Unlike SEO, Google Ads can generate calls within days of launching. Most clients see inbound calls within the first week. That said, the first 30–60 days are a learning period where we're gathering data and optimising — costs per call typically improve significantly once the campaigns have enough history to work with.
Clicks are just traffic — they don't tell you who actually called. Without call tracking, you have no idea which campaigns, keywords, or ads are generating real customers versus which ones are just generating curiosity clicks. Call tracking is the difference between guessing and knowing. We require it on all campaigns because without it, meaningful optimisation is impossible.
Google Ads gives you immediate visibility at the top of search results — but you pay for every click, and the moment you stop paying, you disappear. SEO builds organic rankings over time that don't require ongoing spend to maintain. Most businesses benefit from both: Ads for immediate results, SEO for long-term compounding growth. We manage both and can advise on the right mix for your goals.
No. Month-to-month for all management services. We recommend a minimum of 90 days to give campaigns time to gather data and optimise, but you're never locked in. We ask for 30 days notice to wind down campaigns properly and hand over your account in good shape.
