How fast will I start getting calls from Google Ads?

Most campaigns start generating clicks within the first few days. Calls and quote requests usually follow within the first two weeks, depending on your budget and how competitive the keywords are. Grand Saline's a smaller market, so things tend to move quicker than they would in a big city.

Can I run ads just during certain months?

Yes, and for landscapers that's usually a smart move. We can ramp up in spring, keep things going through summer and fall, and pause or reduce spend during winter when nobody's thinking about lawn care. You're not locked into running ads year-round.

What if I only do certain services like mowing and mulch?

We build campaigns around whatever you actually offer. If you don't do hardscaping, we're not running ads for hardscaping. Every keyword and ad ties back to the real services on your list. No reason to pay for clicks on work you'd turn down.

Do I need a website to run Google Ads?

Technically you can run call-only ads without one, but you'll get much better results with a landing page. If you don't have a site yet, we can build one. A full website starts at $1,500 and takes about a week.

How is this different from just boosting posts on Facebook?

Facebook puts your ad in front of people who might be interested based on their profile. Google Ads puts your ad in front of people who are actively searching for a landscaper right now. Both have a place, but Google Ads tends to produce leads that are closer to picking up the phone.

You Don't Have a Traffic Problem — You Have a Targeting Problem

So here's what happens when most landscapers try Google Ads on their own. You pick some keywords like "landscaping" and "lawn care," set a daily budget, and let Google do its thing. And Google will happily spend your money. It's very good at that part.

But then you check your account a month later and you've gotten clicks from people in Dallas looking for indoor plant delivery. Or someone in Shreveport googling "landscape painting." Or bots. Lots of bots. You spent $400 and got zero calls. That's not Google Ads failing — that's Google Ads without anyone watching.

Grand Saline sits in Van Zandt County with Canton down the road and a bunch of smaller communities scattered around. Your customers are homeowners out here, maybe some commercial properties, people who need mowing or mulch or a full hardscape job. They're not searching from 200 miles away. So your ads shouldn't show 200 miles away. We set geographic targeting tight. We pick keywords that match what people actually type when they need a landscaper — stuff like "landscaping near Grand Saline" or "mulch delivery Van Zandt County" or "lawn care quotes." And we add negative keywords so you're not paying for clicks from people looking for landscaping jobs, landscaping software, or DIY YouTube tutorials.

That's half the battle right there. The other half is writing ads that make someone pick up the phone. Your ad copy needs to mention the services you actually do — mowing, design, seasonal cleanups, hardscaping, whatever your list looks like. And it needs a clear call to action. Not "learn more." Something like "get a free quote" or "call now for scheduling." People searching for a landscaper aren't browsing. They want someone this week.

What $750 a Month Actually Gets You

We're not going to sugarcoat this — Google Ads costs money. You've got the ad spend itself, which goes directly to Google, and then there's our management fee starting at $750 a month. That covers setup, keyword research, ad writing, bid adjustments, and ongoing monitoring. We watch the numbers so you don't have to.

For a landscaper in a market like Grand Saline, your ad spend doesn't need to be massive. You're not competing with a hundred other landscaping companies. The Salt Dome Museum probably gets more web traffic than most local businesses combined, and that works in your favor — less competition means lower cost per click. A reasonable monthly ad budget on top of management can keep your phone ringing through spring and summer.

And that's the other thing — seasonality. Landscaping searches spike hard in March and don't slow down until October. A good ads setup accounts for that. We can increase your budget during peak months when everybody's looking for lawn care and pull it back during winter when searches drop off. No sense paying the same amount in January as you do in April.

We also set up conversion tracking so you can see exactly how many calls and quote requests came from your ads. Not vanity metrics like impressions or click-through rate — actual leads. If a campaign isn't producing leads, we adjust it or kill it. If a keyword is eating budget without converting, it's gone. This isn't a set-it-and-forget-it situation. That's the whole reason you'd pay someone to manage it instead of doing it yourself.

Your landing page matters too. If someone clicks your ad and lands on a page that doesn't show your services, your service area, or a way to request a quote — they're gone. We'll make sure the page your ads point to actually does its job. Before and after photos of your work, a clear list of what you offer, and a simple way to get in touch. That's what turns a click into a customer.
