PPC that starts with the click price

What a Corvallis Google Ads budget buys

A Google Ads budget for a Corvallis service business starts with two numbers: what a click costs and what one job is worth. Lithium Marketing runs the account in your name and charges from $500 a month in management, plus ad spend. We track the calls and put the budget where the numbers say it belongs. “garage door repair corvallis” averages $24.30 a click, so that trade has to make each one count.

Click prices spread wide by trade. “roofing company corvallis” averages $14.60 a click, “plumber corvallis” averages $10.24, and “landscaping corvallis” averages $3.17. A roofer and a landscaper should not run the same budget shape, and neither should a company selling emergency repairs and one selling planned projects.

Budget for a wet winter and a dry summer

If the city’s warm, dry, sunny summers and mild, wet winters match your busy season, a flat monthly budget spends too much in the slow weeks and too little in the busy ones. The budget can be set by month, and the landing page can say which jobs you take now.

Benton County lists 2,200 establishments, and your jobs likely come from a handful of towns inside it. Geo targeting set to those towns spends where the work is; a campaign set to Oregon spends across the state.

Two trades, two bids

Roofing and pest control bid against different numbers

Five roofing contractors work in Benton County. The searches that name Corvallis run 90 a month for “roofing company corvallis”, so the roofing campaign can stay narrow: repair, replacement and the few terms a homeowner uses when a leak shows up.

Pest control is the other extreme: “pest control corvallis” draws 140 searches a month. A recurring-plan ad should not pay for a one-time inspection search, so the campaign runs as separate ad groups by intent.

Month one

How a Corvallis Google Ads account gets set up

The account name and the tracking come first, then the campaigns and the landing pages.

1

Open the account under your business

The Google Ads account is created in your name, so the history, the audiences and the data stay with you.

2

Put tracking on the calls

GA4, call tracking and conversion tags put calls and form submissions against the campaign that produced them.

3

Give each job its own page

A roof repair, a drain clearing or a repaint gets a page and a campaign that match the work you want more of.

4

Bid work for the first month

Bids get checked every morning for 30 days. After that it is a weekly review, with the monthly budget set in advance.

The same glass company, the ads side

The Google Ads, site and SEO behind Dixie Glass’s card

The Google Ads on the card came from Lithium, which also built the website and ran SEO for Dixie Glass, a Mississippi Gulf Coast glass business. Drake Snodgrass of Drake’s 7 Dees is quoted beside it.

FAQ

The ad questions owners bring to the first call

Still curious?

Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].

What should we spend in month one?

Enough to learn something. The starting number depends on your trade’s click price and what one job is worth, so a company selling replacements starts higher than one selling maintenance. We pick the number on the strategy call and revise it once the tracking has enough data to show a real cost per lead.

How soon do the first ad calls arrive?

Initial results usually show inside the first week once tracking is live. After that the account gets tighter: search terms that never turn into work get dropped, their budget moves to the terms that do, and cost per lead decides the next month.

Who owns the Google Ads account?

You do. Lithium builds and runs the campaigns inside an account under your business name, so the history, the audiences and the conversion data stay with you if the work ever moves elsewhere. You can add or remove access at any time.

Do Microsoft or Meta ads ever earn a place?

Only if your buyers are there. Google is where the search happens, and Microsoft Ads and Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram are two more channels Lithium manages when the numbers point to them: high Google clicks in your trade, or when social channels reach the customer you want. Start with one, then add the next when the report shows what a lead costs.

How do we judge whether a campaign is working?

Calls, leads and cost per lead by campaign are the three numbers in the monthly report, and they decide where next month’s budget goes. If you mark which leads became jobs, the report follows the campaign that far. Nothing gets judged on clicks alone.
