Paid search, answered

What an Edinburg ad budget buys

Ad money goes further when the account knows which search produced the call. Lithium Marketing wires the tracking in before the first campaign runs, so a cheap click and an expensive one can be compared on the work they brought in.

Edinburg's trade searches are not evenly priced. Pest control draws the most searches of the group and carries the highest recorded click cost, so a pest company's budget has to be built around a booking that can carry it.

The season here

Heat, warm winters and a budget that flexes

Edinburg's summers run hot to sweltering and its winters stay warm. If your trade peaks with the heat, the budget should build in the weeks before that peak and hold through it, and your own call history sets the dates.

If your indoor work holds through winter, the budget can stay flat in those months; tracking a full year shows where it pays to go heavier.

The first month

How a campaign gets set up here

No budget moves until the account can show which search rang the phone, and after that the campaigns follow your own busy months.

1

Start with the history

We read the account you have, keep what converted and write down the terms that spent without a call.

2

Put a name on every call

Call tracking, GA4 and conversion tags are set so a keyword and an ad sit beside each call in the report.

3

Split the account by job

Each service you want more of gets a campaign and a page that repeats the ad and puts the number first.

4

Check it every day at first

For the first 30 days, bids and negative keywords are checked every day; after that, once a week.

What every Google Ads account includes

The same eight parts go into every Google Ads account, wherever the business is.

A garden center's campaign

Drake's 7 Dees: the site, the search and the ads

Drake's 7 Dees runs a garden center, and it came to Lithium for three things: a website, SEO and Google Ads. The lead and conversion figures on the card come from that work. Drake Snodgrass, its owner, gives his own account beside the card.

FAQ

What owners want to know before paying for clicks

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

How much should a first month of ads be?

Start from what one booked job is worth, then work backwards to a cost per call the job can carry. Your trade's click price and the page the click lands on decide how many calls a given budget buys, so the fee and the spend are agreed as two separate numbers.

What does the first week of a campaign look like?

The first calls can arrive in week one if tracking was live before the budget. After that, the account gets pruned: terms that spend without a booking are cut, and the money moves to terms that produce work. The report shows what each change did.

Do you bid on the trade's biggest search only?

Rarely. The biggest search is not automatically the one to buy. We start with the service that pays best, add the terms your own call history shows are real, and keep the negative keyword list growing as the report comes in.

Are Microsoft and Meta part of the plan?

They can be. Lithium runs Facebook and Instagram ads through Meta, and Microsoft Ads for the searches that happen on Bing. A second channel gets budget only after the report shows it brings calls at a cost the job can carry, so Google stays the first test.

What shows up in the monthly report?

It lists the calls and leads each campaign produced, the cost per lead, and the search terms that spent money without one. If you mark which leads turned into booked jobs, the report follows a campaign from the click to the work.
