How long before I start getting calls from the ads?

Most campaigns start generating clicks within the first few days. Calls and quote requests usually follow within the first two weeks once we've dialed in the targeting and weeded out junk traffic. It's not instant, but it's a lot faster than waiting on SEO alone.

Can you target specific services like hardscaping or lawn maintenance separately?

Yes, and we will. Each service you offer gets its own campaign or ad group so the budget goes where it matters most. If hardscape jobs are more profitable for you than weekly mowing, we can weight the spend accordingly.

What if I only want to run ads during busy season?

That's fine. Spring and early summer are when most landscapers see the biggest return on ads anyway. We can pause campaigns during your slow months and pick back up when the phone needs to ring again.

Do I need a website to run Google Ads?

Technically you can send clicks to a Google Business profile, but a real landing page converts a lot better. If you don't have a site yet, we can build one — a simple site starts at $300 and takes just a few days.

I've been burned by an ad agency before. How is this different?

We don't lock you into long contracts and we don't hide behind jargon-filled reports. You'll see exactly what's being spent, where your leads are coming from, and what changes we're making. If it's not working, you'll know — and so will we.

Google Ads That Actually Work for Trinidad Landscapers

You've got a truck, a crew, and plenty of know-how — but the phone's not ringing the way it should. If you've tried running Google Ads on your own and watched the budget disappear without much to show for it, that's not your fault. The system isn't built to be friendly to folks who'd rather be grading a yard than studying ad dashboards.

A Familiar Saturday Morning

You're loading up the trailer at 6 AM, headed to a job in Malakoff or maybe over toward Athens. Somewhere between the mower and the edger, your phone buzzes with an email from Google: "Your campaign spent $47 yesterday." You don't remember getting a single call. You check the account later that night, exhausted, and nothing makes sense — clicks from people searching for artificial turf installers three counties away, a bunch of visits from bots, and one lead that turned out to be someone looking for free mulch. That $47 is gone and it's not coming back.

Why It Keeps Happening

Google makes it very easy to start spending money. They walk you through a quick setup, suggest some broad keywords, and turn things loose. What they don't tell you is that "landscaping" as a keyword will match your ad to searches like "landscaping ideas Pinterest" and "landscaping jobs hiring near me." Neither of those people is about to hire you for a patio installation in Trinidad.

The targeting defaults are wide open too. Your ads might be showing in Dallas, Waco, or Shreveport unless someone manually draws the geographic boundaries. For a landscaper working Henderson County and the surrounding area, that's money thrown at people who'll never be your customers. And the bidding strategy Google recommends out of the box? It's designed to spend your budget, not protect it.

What We'll Do Differently With Your Ad Spend

We build your campaigns from scratch around the services you actually offer — mowing, landscape design, hardscaping, seasonal cleanups, whatever your bread and butter is. Each service gets its own ad group with keywords that match what a real prospect types when they need work done. Not "landscaping," but "landscape rock installation near Trinidad" or "lawn care service Henderson County." Specific. Intentional.

We set your geographic targeting to the areas you're willing to drive to and cut off everything else. If you'll go as far as Gun Barrel City or Corsicana but not to Tyler, that's exactly where your ads run. No wasted impressions on someone sitting in a Houston apartment.

Negative keywords are half the battle and most DIY campaigns don't have a single one. We add hundreds — filtering out job seekers, DIY searchers, wholesale suppliers, and every other irrelevant query that would eat your daily budget before lunch. Then we actually watch the search term reports weekly and keep adding more. Your cost-per-lead should go down over time, not up. And you get real reporting — not a Google-generated summary that pats itself on the back, but plain numbers showing what you spent, how many calls and quote requests came in, and what each one cost you.

This runs starting at $750/mo for ongoing ads management. That covers the campaign buildout, the monitoring, the adjustments, and the reporting. Your actual ad spend with Google is separate and goes directly to them — we don't mark it up or skim off the top. You control that budget and we'll recommend a starting point based on your service area and competition.
