How much should a Mineola landscaper spend on ads per month?

It depends on your goals and how many jobs you can handle. For a smaller market like Mineola and surrounding Wood County, you don't need a huge budget to see results. We can talk through what makes sense based on your capacity and the services you want to push.

Should I focus on Google Ads or Facebook for my landscaping business?

Both work, but they do different things. Google catches people actively searching for a landscaper right now. Facebook is better for staying in front of folks and showing off your work so they think of you when they're ready. Most landscapers get the best results running both, weighted toward whichever is performing.

Can you run ads just during my busy seasons?

Absolutely—and we'd recommend it. There's no reason to spend the same amount in January as you do in April. We adjust your budget and messaging based on what services are in demand each season around Mineola.

How do I know if my ads are actually bringing in jobs?

We set up call tracking and conversion tracking so you can see exactly which ads generated which calls. No vague "impressions" reports. You'll know what you spent and what came back from it.

I only serve Mineola and a few towns nearby—can you target that small an area?

Yes. We can target down to specific zip codes and radius around Mineola. You won't be paying for clicks from people in Dallas or Houston who'd never hire you. Every dollar goes toward reaching folks in your actual service area.

Your Best Marketing Isn't an Ad—It's That Mulch Job on Main Street

Here's my honest opinion about marketing for landscapers in a town the size of Mineola: half of it should be showing off work you're already doing. You've got before-and-after photos on your phone right now that would sell better than any Google ad. The problem is nobody's seeing them.

A solid digital marketing plan for a landscaping business in Wood County isn't about running ads on every platform and hoping something sticks. It's about picking one or two things and doing them well. Maybe that's a Facebook page where you post project photos every week—real ones, from real yards around Mineola and the surrounding area. Maybe it's Google search ads that only run during spring and fall when folks are actually looking for help. Maybe it's showing up on Google Maps when somebody types "landscaper near me" while they're standing in their overgrown yard off Loop 564. Probably it's some mix of all three, shifting with the seasons.

The mistake a lot of small businesses make is trying to do everything at once. You don't need to be on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Google, and sending email newsletters all at the same time. That's how you burn out and quit marketing altogether. We'd rather find the one or two channels that make sense for your business right now, get those working, and then expand when the jobs are coming in steady. For most landscapers in a smaller market like Mineola, that means Google and Facebook. That's where folks in Wood County are actually spending their time when they're thinking about their yard.

Spending Money on Ads Without a Plan Is Just Donating to Google

If you've tried Google Ads before and felt like you were just watching money disappear—you're not wrong. Running ads without a landing page that actually converts, without tracking which calls came from where, without adjusting bids based on what's working—that's not marketing. That's guessing.

We set things up so you can see what's happening. Which ads brought in calls. Which calls turned into jobs. What your cost per lead actually looks like. And then we adjust. If search ads are bringing in hardscape quotes but Facebook is better for weekly mowing signups, we shift the budget. If nobody's clicking during July because it's 105 degrees and nobody wants to think about their yard, we pull back and save that money for September when the phone starts ringing again.

Seasonal awareness matters a ton for landscapers. Your busy season around Mineola isn't the same as a roofer's or a plumber's. Spring cleanup, fall leaf removal, summer maintenance—each one needs different messaging and different timing. A generic "run ads year-round at the same budget" approach wastes money during slow months and leaves you underspending when demand spikes. We plan around your actual calendar, not a template.

Our SEO and ads management starts at $750 a month. That covers the strategy, the ad spend management, ongoing adjustments, and monthly reporting so you know exactly where your money went. No six-month contracts where you're locked in and hoping for the best. If it's not working, we fix it or you walk.
