The challenge

Where the account started

The client needed a steady flow of ready-to-buy customers who could call directly, in a busy local market where competitors were bidding for the same searches. They wanted contacts, not clicks, and they wanted to sit above the paid and free results where customers look first.

The work

What we did

  • Set up and verified Google Local Services Ads, including the Google Guaranteed badge
  • Optimised the profile, service areas, and categories for the searches that matter
  • Managed bidding and budget to keep charged leads flowing efficiently
  • Disputed invalid leads and managed reviews to protect quality and ranking
The results

In the client’s numbers

Over the period: 1,059 charged leads, made up of 918 phone calls, 138 messages, and 3 direct bookings, from 107,531 ad impressions. The client held a 96.66% top-of-search appearance rate, meaning they showed above the results almost every single time a customer searched.

What this example shows

Why it worked

Local Services Ads put a business at the very top of Google with a trust badge, and customers contact directly. Near-total top-of-search presence meant our client was the first name customers saw, which is why the phone kept ringing.

These results reflect this account and period. They are not a promise of the same result for another business.
