Five questions to ask any ad agency, including us

Plenty of agencies say they only work with contractors. These questions separate the ones who can show it from the ones who can't.

Can I see which keyword produced each call?

Yes. Calls and form submissions are tracked through GA4 and Google Tag Manager and tied back to the search that caused them.

What keeps DIY and job-seeker clicks out?

Negative keyword lists and tight match types, set before launch and checked against real search terms as the account runs.

Who checks that the leads are real?

We review actual customer calls against your CRM, not only the platform's conversion count.

Do I own my ad account and data?

Yes. The ad account, the tracking, and the data are 100% yours from day one. We work inside your account, so nothing is held back if you leave.

What does the contract look like?

Month to month, with no long-term lock-in. You stay because the numbers hold up. See the details below.

How we run an account

Four stages, in order. Each one makes the next one reliable.

Stage 1

Aim at real buyers

Tight location settings, high-intent keywords, and negative keywords that block DIY, jobs, and research searches.

Stage 2

Split by service

Separate campaigns, ads, and landing pages for installs, repairs, heat pumps, drains, and the rest, so each search lands on a matching page.

Stage 3

Track every call and form

Conversions feed back to the keyword and campaign that earned them, and we test that the tags fire before spend grows.

Stage 4

Scale on proof

Once conversion data is stable, we move to automated bidding and raise budgets in the markets that are paying back.

The work, with the periods and definitions

Every figure compares the same season across years, and says what counts as a conversion. Spend is in Canadian dollars.

We also test whether the ads are needed

For the storage client we paused paid search for about three months to see how organic held up. Some locations did fine without ads and others dropped off, which told us where spend earns its place.

Why we publish the definitions
Every number above says which months it compares and what counts as a conversion, so you can check the work instead of taking our word for it.

Figures come from the clients' Google Ads accounts and are rounded. Both accounts were led by our founder. Results vary by market and account.

Estimate how much spend leaks

Unfocused accounts often send part of the budget to DIY searches, job seekers, and people outside the service area. Set your budget and your own guess for that share.

This is an estimate from your assumption, not a measurement. The audit replaces the guess with your real search terms.

Built around how each trade gets calls

Demand for each trade moves on its own calendar, so each gets its own campaigns, ads, and landing pages.

HVAC

Emergency AC repair in summer, heating breakdowns in winter, and planned installs and heat pumps in between, run as separate campaigns.

Plumbing

Burst pipes, drains, sewer lines, and water heaters, with negative keywords that filter out how-to and job searches.

Electrical

Panel upgrades, EV charger installs, and commercial wiring, with tracking that shows which searches pay back.

Roofing

Replacements and storm repairs, with settings that screen out small patch searches so budget goes to full-roof jobs.

Running several locations or trades? We build one structure that repeats, so each new location launches into a setup that already works.

Core services and pricing

Straightforward retainers for established home service businesses ready to scale. Month to month, and you own your ad accounts.

Ownership and contracts, in plain terms

The things contractors tell us they worry about most when hiring an agency.

Who owns the ad account and the data?

You do, completely. Your Google Ads and Meta accounts, conversion tracking, call data, and reports belong to you from the first day. We manage them from inside your accounts.

Is there a long-term contract?

No. We work month to month, and you own your ad accounts. Pricing is listed above, and we walk through it on your free audit call.

What happens if I leave?

Your campaigns, tracking, and history stay in your accounts, so a new agency or your own team can pick up where we stopped.

A senior strategist reviews your current Google and Meta accounts in 15 minutes and shows you where budget is leaking. There is no obligation to hire us afterward.
