What you get
Google Ads built for Lafayette.Aimed at the towns you can serve.
Targeting by town
Location settings drawn from where your crews and customers actually go, not a radius around the city center, with Google’s spend-anywhere defaults switched off.
Drawn around your service area.Arithmetic first
Customer value, lead cost and the budget it takes to compete, settled before the first click. If the margin cannot cover a click, we say so.
An honest answer before spend.Search terms and negatives
Keywords aimed at buying intent, and negative lists that keep your money away from job seekers and homework. Ads are written for the search.
Terms you can actually see.Landing pages that get calls
A slow page with the phone number at the bottom is how many Lafayette businesses decide ads do not work. We check the page before the bids.
Checked before the bids.Calls and forms, counted
Call tracking on marketing lines and forms tied to their campaign, so Google learns from customers instead of page views.
Real conversions only.Beyond Google search
Facebook, Instagram and YouTube run inside the same service, your Google Business Profile follows the same offers, and ad clicks show your SEO what to cover next.
Same offers, every channel.How it works
Five steps, arithmetic to tuning.A weekly job, not a setup.
Set the numbers
Start from what a new customer is worth here, then work back to the most a lead can cost and the smallest budget that can compete.
Build it local
Targeting from where you work, then keywords, negatives and ads under your ownership, written for the search.
Wire the tracking
Calls and forms are tracked before any money moves, so the very first click already counts.
Launch small
Campaigns go live small, and the first week gets watched daily.
Tune and trim
Weekly review of search terms, bids and ads, and a monthly look at the location report to cut towns that cost more than they return.
Live in about two weeks. Calls often follow that week, and a few weeks of search terms show what really works.

What it costs
Two numbers, both in view.Spend and fee never blur.
Below a certain monthly spend there is not enough data to learn from, and the budget vanishes into an auction you cannot win. Your spend goes to Google on your own card, inside an account you own.
Google Ads management
$3,000 a month minimum.
Roughly $2,500 of that is ad spend, paid to Google on your own card. The other $500 is our fee, on its own line, and it moves as spend grows. A business covering a few towns needs a different number than one bidding statewide, and the strategy call gives you yours with the reasoning.
Call tracking
$150 a month per location.
$250 a month for two. Add it when you want to know which calls the ads produced, not just that the phone rang. It runs on marketing lines only.
Homegrown
We know Lafayette.
Geography is most of the skill in a Lafayette ad account. The auction does not care about parish lines, so a lazy radius drawn around the city center buys clicks from Crowley at the same price as clicks from Youngsville, whether or not you would take the job. Our team sets targeting from where your crews and customers actually go, reads the location report every month and trims. Seasons matter here too: storm work, crawfish season, festival weekends and the slow stretch of August all move what people search for and what a click costs that week.

Good questions
Asked about Google Ads here.Short answers, then the detail.
How fast do Google Ads work?
Traffic starts the day campaigns go live, and calls often follow in the same week. Useful patterns take a few weeks, which is how long it takes to gather enough search terms and conversions to see what is really producing work. Month one is about learning quickly and cutting waste.
What is the difference between Google Ads and SEO?
Ads buy a place at the top of the page for as long as you pay for it. SEO earns a place that stays after the spending stops. Ads produce data in days, search takes months and compounds, and most businesses here run both, usually in that order.
How much should we budget for Google Ads?
Enough to gather real data. Management starts at $3,000 a month, about $2,500 of it ad spend, and the right number depends on what a customer is worth to you and what competitors pay per click in Lafayette. Our team works the number out with you on the strategy call and says plainly when the amount needed to compete in your category is more than you want to spend.
Who owns the ad account?
You do. Accounts are built under your ownership, spend goes on your own card, and the history stays with you if the relationship ends. Ask that question of any agency before signing, because rebuilding a mature account costs months of learning you already paid for once.
What happens if the ads do not produce?
We stop, find the cause and change it. Often the campaign is fine and the page it lands on is the problem, sometimes the offer is wrong for the market, and occasionally the honest answer is that this category does not pay for clicks. You are not locked into a year of it.
