Know the price of the test

Plano PPC needs a budget built for your trade

With Lithium Marketing managing PPC for your Plano service business, the budget starts with the jobs you can profitably deliver. The average paid click for “garage door repair plano” is $79.12. At that price, the ad needs to describe the right service and the landing page needs to make calling easy.

We use click costs to size a test, then measure calls and leads against spending. You tell us which leads became jobs and what those jobs earned after the work was done. That helps decide if a campaign deserves more budget or needs changes to its searches, page or offer.

Match spending to your calendar

Prepare for Plano’s weather without guessing at demand

July is Plano’s warmest month on average. If your cooling calls build in that period, we can plan ad spending around the work your technicians have capacity to take. A landscaper or other outdoor-service business may follow a different booking pattern; your job history guides that choice.

May is Plano’s wettest month on average. If wet-weather roof or property calls are part of your business, review the past bookings before increasing the related budget. We agree on the advertised services and availability with you, then adjust the campaigns as the schedule changes.

The ad should sell your service

Be specific enough to earn a qualified call

Among Collin County’s recorded businesses are 133 roofing contractors. A roof ad that only says “quality service” gives a buyer little to act on. We write around the job you offer and support it with a landing page explaining the estimate and the next step.

There are 72 pest control establishments in Collin County. For a pest business, an ad should say if the offer is an inspection, a treatment or an ongoing service. That detail helps the caller understand what they are asking to book and gives your team a clearer lead to follow up.

Control the spend from setup onward

Run a Plano ad test you can judge

Before expanding a campaign, we need to know which services it promotes, how contacts are counted and which leads your team can book.

1

Set the limits of the first test

You choose the service, coverage and spending ceiling with us. Existing account history helps identify searches worth keeping and ones to exclude.

2

Check what happens after an ad click

We review the landing page against the advertised job and test its call and form tracking. The reporting must distinguish visits from leads.

3

Review closely while the account settles

During the first 30 days, we review and optimize daily; after that, reviews run weekly. Search terms, bids and lead quality guide the changes.

4

Use booking feedback before adding spend

We compare campaign lead costs with your team’s record of booked work. A campaign earning cheap contacts still needs to bring jobs you want.

FAQ

Questions about the money behind Plano PPC

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

How are the agency fee and advertising budget charged?

Google Ads management starts at $500 a month, plus ad spend. The management fee depends on ad spend, the channels we run and landing page work. We agree on that fee and your advertising budget before launch. Your campaign report shows the leads produced by the spend, so you can review the investment without mixing those costs together.

How soon will a Plano paid-search test show results?

Initial results typically appear during the first week of running campaigns. Early calls tell us if the ad and page are attracting the intended work, but a few contacts are not enough to settle a long-term budget. We keep reviewing search terms and leads, then use your booking feedback to assess the test.

Can a costly click still lead to a profitable campaign?

It can if enough visitors become customers and the completed work covers the cost of winning it. We ask about average job revenue, the expense of doing the work and your lead-to-booking rate. Those inputs help set the spending limit. A low click price alone is not a reason to scale a campaign.

What if my ads bring calls for services I do not offer?

We review the searches and the ad wording, then tighten targeting or correct the offer. The landing page may also need clearer service limits. Tell us what callers are requesting so we can distinguish a poor search match from a message that gives customers the wrong expectation.

How long do I commit to having you run the ads?

The standard starting agreement covers six months of service. It then renews month to month, with 30 days’ notice to end it. The proposal also records the management scope and advertising budget, so changes in spending or channels can be discussed against an agreed starting point.
