GOOGLE ADS MANAGEMENT FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES

Get your business in front of people already searching for what you do.

When someone searches Google for a local business, product or service like yours, you want your business to be there.

But setting up Google Ads properly can get complicated quickly. Keywords, locations, budgets, bidding, tracking… it’s another platform to learn when you’ve already got a business to run.

I provide Google Ads setup and ongoing management for local businesses across Australia, taking care of your Google Search Ads so you don’t have to.

Australia-wide • No lock-in contracts • Your ad spend is paid directly to Google

REACH PEOPLE WHEN THEY’RE ALREADY LOOKING

Google Search Ads put your business in front of people at the point they’re actively searching for a product or service.

Someone searches Google for something like:

🔎 physio Rockhampton
🔎 family lawyer near me
🔎 hair extensions Gold Coast

Your business can appear in the sponsored Google search results.

They click your ad, visit your website and can call, enquire or book.

You pay Google when someone clicks your ad.

HOW GOOGLE ADS MANAGEMENT WORKS

1. Tell me about your business

Tell me about your business. We’ll discuss what you want to advertise, where your customers are located and an appropriate starting Google Ads budget.

2. I build your Google Ads campaign

I’ll research your keywords, structure the campaign, write your ads, configure your location targeting and tracking, and get everything ready to launch.

3. I keep an eye on your ads

Once your Google Ads are running, I’ll monitor the campaign and make ongoing adjustments where needed. You can get on with running your business without having to keep logging into Google Ads yourself.

GOOGLE ADS FAQs

 

How much do Google Ads cost for a small business in Australia?

There isn’t one Google Ads budget that suits every business.

The amount I recommend will depend on what you’re advertising, your location, competition and approximately how much advertisers are paying for clicks in your industry.

A local butcher, hairdresser or accommodation business may need a very different advertising budget to a lawyer or medical clinic operating in a competitive market.

We’ll discuss an appropriate starting budget before your campaign is launched.

Your Google advertising budget is separate from my $499 setup and $99 monthly management fees and is paid directly to Google.

 

Do I need a Google Ads account already?

No. If you don’t already have one, I’ll help you get everything ready.

The account will belong to your business and your advertising spend will be charged directly to your own payment method.

 

What is included in Google Ads management?

My $99 monthly Google Ads management fee covers monitoring and maintaining the campaign I’ve set up for you.

That includes reviewing search terms, adding negative keywords, checking budgets and bidding, reviewing campaign performance and conversions, and making minor changes to your existing ads and campaign where required.

If you want to advertise an entirely new service, target another location or have another campaign built, I’ll let you know if additional setup work is required.

Why do Google Ads need ongoing management?

Google Ads aren’t completely set and forget. Once your campaign starts running, we can see what people are actually searching for, which keywords are generating clicks and enquiries, where your budget is being spent and which searches aren’t relevant.

I’ll monitor this information and make adjustments where needed.

Is Google Ads the same as SEO?

No. SEO focuses on improving where your website appears naturally in Google search results over time.

Google Ads allows you to pay to appear in sponsored search results for relevant searches and start reaching potential customers much sooner.

How quickly can Google Ads start working?

Once your campaign has been built and approved by Google, your ads can start appearing quite quickly.

That doesn’t mean we judge whether a campaign is successful after the first couple of days. Google Ads need time to collect useful data about searches, clicks and conversions.

I’ll continue monitoring your campaign after launch and make adjustments as we learn what’s working.
