It depends on your market, competition, and goals. We recommend starting with a budget you can sustain, tracking every conversion, and scaling what works. Management is a custom quote based on the account and ad spend.

Do you also run Meta ads or social media marketing?

Our focus is search: Google Ads, SEO, and Google Business Profile.

Do I own the ad account?

Yes. The account stays in your name.

Why Grand Junction businesses use Google Ads

SEO takes time. Google Ads can put your business at the top of search results the same day a campaign goes live. For local businesses in Grand Junction, that means calls from people searching right now for a plumber, a roofer, a lawyer, or a dentist. Google Ads management makes sure that ad spend goes to the right searches, in the right towns, with ads and landing pages that turn clicks into customers.

Keyword strategy

Good campaigns focus on high-intent keywords: searches that show someone is ready to hire, like "water heater replacement Grand Junction." We also build negative keyword lists so you do not pay for searches like "jobs," "DIY," or services you do not offer. Keyword research is reviewed regularly using the real search terms report from your account.

Geo targeting

Ads should show only where you work. We target Grand Junction and the towns you actually serve, such as Fruita, Palisade, and Clifton, and exclude areas you do not cover.

Ad copy and landing pages

An ad should match the search, and the landing page should match the ad. If someone searches for AC repair, the ad should say AC repair and the page should be about AC repair, with click-to-call and a short form. That match improves conversion rates and can improve Quality Score, which affects what you pay per click.

Conversion tracking

Without conversion tracking, you cannot tell which keywords bring jobs. We set up call tracking and form tracking before spend scales, so bidding decisions are based on leads, not guesses.

Bidding and budgets

Google offers several bidding strategies, from manual bids to automated strategies that aim for conversions. The right choice depends on how much conversion data the account has. We start conservative, measure, and adjust.

Common Google Ads mistakes we fix

• Broad keywords with no negative keywords
• Ads sending everyone to the home page
• No conversion tracking
• Targeting the whole state instead of the service area
• Paying for clicks outside business hours with no one to answer

Do I own my Google Ads account?

Yes. The account stays in your name and you keep full access.
