Bloomington PPC, answered
The click prices inside one city are far apart: “landscaping bloomington in” averages $3.63 a click and “garage door repair bloomington in” averages $35.76. That spread is why Lithium Marketing puts call tracking in before the first Bloomington campaign.
An expensive click is not automatically a bad one, because a garage door call can be worth a great deal. What matters is the cost per lead your report shows after a month, and whether the work that came in was the work you wanted.

The Bloomington market
Bloomington has a hot-summer humid continental climate, and the city's corner of south Central Indiana takes about 50 inches of rain in a year. If your trade's calls follow heavy weather, whether that is a roof leak or a wet basement, the budget should be heavier in the weeks when those calls arrive.
Indiana University Bloomington enrolls over 45,000 students, and a student population that size points to rental work. If you take work from landlords or property managers, a campaign for that audience gets its own budget and its own cost per lead, apart from the homeowner campaigns.

Trades in Monroe County
Monroe County lists 9 roofing contractors. A click on “roofing company bloomington in” averages $5.62, and the term draws 50 searches a month. At that price, one page aimed at roof work is cheap to test.
Plumbing is the opposite case: 31 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors in the county. There, a tight negative keyword list and a page for the specific job matter more than reach.

Your first month
The account is opened in your name, so the history, the conversion data and the billing stay with you.
The Google Ads account is created under your business with your billing attached, and Lithium works inside it as a manager.
Conversion tags, GA4 and call tracking go in first, so the report can show calls, leads and cost per lead from the start.
Each kind of job you want gets its own campaign, its own landing page and its own share of the budget, so a slow one does not eat a strong one.
For the first 30 days, bids and search terms get a daily pass; after that, the review moves to a weekly cadence against the calendar you set.
What every Google Ads account includes
The same eight parts go into every Google Ads account, wherever the business is.
Proof
Those conversion numbers on the card are Dixie Glass's. For that glass company, Lithium built a new site and handled both its search engine optimization and its PPC campaigns, which is why the card reflects all three services. Marc Rickabaugh, who runs Rickabaugh Construction, is quoted on a separate site and search project Lithium handled for his building company.

FAQ
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
Work backwards from what a booked job is worth to you. The click costs in the table above are the main input, and the landing page decides how many of those clicks turn into calls. We set the opening budget from your trade's click cost and the value of one job.
The first calls usually land in the opening week, and tracking is already running when the campaign starts, so each call can be counted. From there the account gets narrower: search terms that bring clicks but no calls or forms come out, and the money they were using goes to the terms that do.
Six months is the opening commitment; after that, the agreement runs month by month, and 30 days' notice is all it takes to stop. The management fee is quoted in writing before the first campaign, built from ad spend, the channels you pick and any landing pages the campaign needs. No haggling, no hidden upsells.
You do. The account is opened in your business name with your billing attached, and Lithium works inside it as a manager, so the history, the conversion data and the account stay with you if you ever stop.
They are worth testing when the audience is already there or when a Google click costs more than the call it brings. Lithium runs Microsoft Ads and Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram alongside Google, and a second channel gets budget only after its own numbers show it can produce calls. Until that happens, Google carries the campaign.
