SERVICE-BUSINESS CASE STUDY

How a 78-year-old Gulf Coast glass company drove 76% more Google Ads conversions on a 2.29% spend increase.

Roswell service businesses run in a small-market auction shaped by Walker Air Force Base history, the dairy and agricultural buyer base across Chaves County, and a Highway 285 corridor that sends search traffic in from Artesia, Carlsbad, and the southeast New Mexico oil patch. The Dixie Glass campaign shows what disciplined PPC management does to that math.

Dixie Glass, a third-generation Mississippi Gulf Coast glass company in business since 1946, came to Lithium with Google Ads campaigns that were spending without producing tracked conversions. We rebuilt the campaigns around proper conversion tracking, tightened the keyword and match-type strategy, deployed dedicated landing pages, and wired CallRail through to GA4. Over twelve months, on only a 2.29 percent ad spend increase, Google Ads conversions climbed 76 percent and the campaign conversion rate landed at 15.57 percent.

WHY LITHIUM FOR ROSWELL PPC

Three things Roswell PPC programs miss that we don't.

Roswell's thin search volume punishes broad-match guessing.

Search counts in the Roswell metro are a small fraction of what a Bay Area or Texas major would produce, so a single sloppy broad-match keyword can burn a week of budget on irrelevant clicks from Albuquerque or El Paso. We lock match types early and pair tight geo-targeting with Chaves County plus a defined regional radius so the spend actually lands on Roswell buyers.

Roswell buyers respond to plain, regional ad copy.

The Roswell service buyer is a Chaves County resident, an agricultural operator, a Highway 285 commuter, or a UFO-tourist-economy operator. Generic citywide copy underperforms ad copy that names the actual service, names the part of town, and references a real local landmark. Quality Score moves accordingly, and so does cost per click.

Roswell PPC math closes on cost per booked lead, not impressions.

In a market this size, impression share looks healthy on the dashboard and means nothing if the phone is not ringing. We report leading indicators weekly during launch, then leads, cost per lead, and revenue every month, all tied to the CRM. The strategy call is built around what closed, not what served.

Strategic comparison of traditional PPC agencies vs Lithium Marketing across conversion tracking, landing pages, bid management, reporting and attribution, and strategy ownership

Ranking for queries that do not convert

In Roswell, where Bay Area business-services CPCs run $7 to $12, every wasted click is a measurable dollar lost. Lithium’s PPC programs are built around the cost-per-lead math first, click volume second.

Technical debt blocking growth

Service-business buyers prefer to tap a phone number rather than navigate a menu to find one. A site missing a click-to-call link in the hero, and a sticky mobile bar that keeps it within thumb reach during scroll, loses the calls you paid to earn through ads.

Generic content that says nothing local

A PPC campaign without proper conversion tracking, dedicated landing pages, and negative-keyword discipline is invisible in your CRM dashboard. The clicks may be there, the impressions may be there, but the booked work is flat. That is where most of the Roswell ad spend silently leaks.

No measurement tied to revenue

Buyers decide whether to keep scrolling in about five seconds. A site that shows no reviews, no project photos, no service-area clarity, and no trust signal in the hero loses every time to a competitor who placed a single five-star rating in the right spot.

WHAT'S INCLUDED IN EVERY ROSWELL PPC RETAINER

Eight things we ship inside every Roswell PPC retainer, not as upsells.

A Roswell PPC program needs every line item in this list working together. The thin metro search volume, the Highway 285 cross-corridor spillover from Artesia and Carlsbad, and the seasonal swings of the agricultural and tourism cycles all reward disciplined campaign architecture and punish lazy templating.

Conversion tracking, properly wired

GA4 events on every form and click-to-call. CallRail call tracking with call quality scoring. Server-side conversion imports for Google Ads. Offline-conversion imports from your CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce, GoHighLevel). The algorithm cannot optimize toward leads it cannot see.

Dedicated landing pages per intent

Landing pages built for the buyer behind the keyword, not the home page. Single offer above the fold, tap-to-call thumb-zone-friendly, one form, one CTA, and a load time under 2.5 seconds on a mid-tier Roswell mobile network. Every high-intent keyword cluster gets its own page.

Keyword strategy + match-type discipline

Keywords mapped to buyer intent (research, comparison, decision) and tied to estimated revenue per lead. Match-type discipline that prevents broad-match drift from eating budget on the wrong queries. Monthly negative-keyword review from the search-terms report.

Ad copy + Responsive Search Ads

Ad copy that names the actual service, not “quality work.” Responsive Search Ads with the maximum asset count, manual headline pinning where intent demands it, sitelinks tuned to Roswell buyer language, and structured asset extensions. Every variant tagged for A/B analysis.

Geo-targeting + audience layering

Geo-targeting at the suburb level, not the metro level. Bid modifiers tuned to your actual conversion data across the neighborhoods you serve. Audience layering with in-market segments, remarketing pools, and customer-match uploads from your CRM. The right click, the right place, the right time, at the right bid.

Bid management + remarketing

Manual control on high-intent keywords, Google’s tCPA and tROAS automation where the data supports it. Remarketing audiences segmented by funnel stage, with display, YouTube, and Discovery campaigns layered on top of search for Roswell buyers who clicked but did not convert. The full funnel, not just the first click.

Reporting tied to revenue, not vanity

Looker Studio dashboard updating daily on impressions, clicks, conversions, conversion rate, and ROAS by campaign and ad group. Call quality scored and reviewed monthly. Monthly written report ties everything back to leads delivered, cost per lead, and revenue. The same numbers Lithium uses internally to manage your program.

Optimization cadence that pays back

Daily monitoring during the first 30 days, weekly after that. Bid adjustments, ad copy rotations, and budget reallocations happen on real data: search-terms reports, conversion data by ad group, landing-page conversion rate, device and audience performance. Every change is logged and tied to a measurable outcome.

ROSWELL SERVICE BUSINESSES WE RUN PPC FOR

The verticals where our Roswell PPC playbook turns clicks into customers most reliably.

Roswell’s economy splits between agriculture and dairy across Chaves County, the regional healthcare and education anchors in town, the Highway 285 commercial corridor that feeds the Permian Basin oil patch, and the steady UFO-and-Bottomless-Lakes tourism economy. These are the verticals where our PPC programs deliver the most consistent cost-per-lead math.

Home services

Roswell’s mid-century housing stock and the dry southeastern New Mexico climate keep HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and roofing trades busy through hot summers and freeze-snap winters. Hard water from the local supply drives water-heater and water-softener replacement volume, and hail from spring Plains storms produces a tight roofing season. We build emergency-intent call-only campaigns, tight Chaves County geo-targeting with a regional radius that reaches Dexter and Hagerman, and tap-to-call landing pages that load under 2.5 seconds on mid-tier mobile. Cost per lead typically lands $55 to $110 once optimized.

Dental and medical practices

Independent dental and medical practices in Roswell operate in the orbit of Eastern New Mexico Medical Center and the regional Presbyterian network, both of which set the procedural-keyword baseline. We run procedure-specific ad groups, insurance-friendly landing pages that name the actual carriers and Medicaid plans accepted in southeast New Mexico, and conversion tracking through your booking platform. Not just form submissions. The booked appointment is the lead, and we wire CallRail to the practice management system so the click traces to revenue.

Contractors and construction

Roswell contractors handle a mix of stucco restoration, metal-roof work on the rural and ranch properties out toward Dexter and Hagerman, kitchen remodels in the older Country Club and Northeast neighborhoods, and light commercial work along the Main Street and Highway 285 corridors. We run project-type ad groups, image and YouTube creative with real Roswell project photography, and quote-form landing pages with realistic price-range expectation setting so the lead arrives qualified.

Legal and professional services

Roswell attorneys handle personal injury tied to the Highway 285 truck traffic from the oil patch, agricultural and water-rights work that is genuinely specific to southeast New Mexico, family law, and the steady estate-planning demand that comes with a regional retiree population. We run practice-area campaigns tied to actual buyer intent, write ad copy that meets New Mexico State Bar advertising rules, and tie consultation-booking landing pages to CallRail. Cost per lead in legal typically lands $90 to $200 once disciplined.

Hospitality and restaurants

Roswell’s hospitality and restaurant scene runs on the UFO Festival every July, the Bottomless Lakes State Park summer pull, and the steady Highway 285 truck-and-traveler base year-round. Volume swings hard on festival week. We build event-driven campaign scheduling, OpenTable or direct-reservation conversion tracking where applicable, local-intent search campaigns, and geo-fenced ad groups along the Main Street and Second Street corridors during peak windows.

Auto services

Auto repair, body shops, and diesel service in Roswell handle a mix of agricultural fleet work, oil-patch truck service spilling in from the Permian, and standard passenger collision and powertrain work. The blowing-dust season and hailstorms drive their own seasonal volume. We run emergency-intent call-only campaigns, OEM-targeted ad groups (Ford, Chevy, and Ram dominate the truck mix here), diesel-and-fleet landing pages, and dynamic call extensions during shop hours.

Specialty retail

Roswell’s specialty retail concentrates along Main Street downtown, with a strong UFO-tourism gift sector and a regional western-wear and feed-and-ranch supply layer that pulls in shoppers from across Chaves County. We run Google Shopping with product feeds, local-inventory ads, store-visit conversion tracking, and remarketing audiences segmented by product category. Performance Max often handles awareness; manual search captures the high-intent decision and protects margin against the Albuquerque and El Paso e-commerce pull.

B2B services

Roswell’s B2B service economy runs on agricultural-services suppliers, oil-patch vendor companies that orbit the Permian operators, and the regional healthcare-administration buyer pool. Sales cycles are long and relationship-driven. We run LinkedIn-paired Google Ads campaigns, gated-content lead-gen funnels, and long-cycle attribution wired through HubSpot or a smaller CRM. Cost per qualified opportunity matters more than cost per first-touch click.

OUR PROCESS

From audit to optimized campaigns, with weekly check-ins through the first month.

Profitable PPC is a compounding system, not a one-time launch. The Lithium process starts with an audit and conversion-tracking rebuild, then ships campaign optimizations on a weekly cadence with monthly reporting that ties impressions to booked work.

01

Audit and strategy

Week 1

We pull your Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, GA4, CallRail, and CRM data and audit your current campaigns against impression share, conversion rate, quality score, and search-terms waste. We map your service mix, real Roswell buyer journeys, and revenue per lead. You receive an audit deliverable in week one with priorities ranked by impact.

02

Conversion infrastructure

Week 2

Before we touch ad copy, we wire conversion tracking properly. GA4 events on every form and click-to-call, CallRail through to Google Ads, server-side conversion imports, and offline-conversion imports from your CRM. The algorithm cannot optimize toward leads it cannot see, so this gets done first or everything else compounds slower.

03

Campaign build

Week 2–3

Ad groups structured by buyer intent, ad copy with the maximum Responsive Search Ads asset count, dedicated landing pages built for each high-intent keyword cluster, geo-targeting at the suburb level (tuned to the neighborhoods you actually serve), and a baseline negative-keyword list. Every campaign launches with a 30-day optimization plan already mapped.

04

Launch and learning phase

Week 3–6

We build your Roswell campaigns from the ground up: ad groups by intent, ad copy with the maximum Responsive Search Ads asset count, sitelinks tuned to Roswell buyer language, geo-targeting at the suburb level, and dedicated landing pages for the highest-intent keywords. Every campaign launches with a baseline negative-keyword list and a 30-day optimization plan already mapped.

05

Ongoing optimization

Week 6–7

Daily monitoring during the first 30 days, weekly after that. We optimize on search-terms reports, conversion data by ad group, landing-page conversion rate, device and audience performance, and quality score drift. Bid adjustments, ad copy rotations, and budget reallocations happen on real data, not gut feel. Every change is logged and tied to a measurable outcome.

06

Measurement and monthly iteration

Post-launch

Monthly written report tied to leads, cost per lead, and revenue from paid search. Strategy call with DJ Van Zanten to set the next month’s priorities. The strategy adjusts every thirty days based on what is actually moving the phone in Roswell. Not what looks good on a vanity chart.

ROSWELL PPC PRICING

Typical Roswell service businesses run $500 to $1,500 per month in management on top of $2,000 to $5,000 in monthly ad spend.

No haggling, no hidden upsells.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Roswell PPC, straight answers.

A properly built Roswell campaign starts producing tracked conversions within the first week of launch. The first 30 days are a learning phase where the algorithm calibrates on real data and we filter out the Artesia, Carlsbad, and Albuquerque spillover that always shows up in the search-terms report of a thin market. Cost per lead typically stabilizes by month two and improves through month three as negative-keyword lists tighten. We report weekly during the first month, monthly after that.

Roswell CPCs run on the low side nationally because the auction depth is thin. Most service verticals sit in the $2 to $6 range, healthcare and legal push $7 to $15. The challenge is not CPC, it is search volume. PPC works in Roswell when the campaign is built to capture every relevant impression in a small auction and when the landing pages convert the few clicks that come in. Properly run Roswell campaigns deliver cost per leads under $90 in trades, under $200 in legal.

Management starts at $500 per month, separate from your ad spend. Typical Roswell service businesses run $500 to $1,000 per month in management on top of $1,500 to $4,000 in monthly ad spend. The number depends on monthly ad spend, channel count (Google, Microsoft, Meta, LinkedIn), and how much landing-page production work the campaign needs. You will see the math on the first call. No haggling, no hidden upsells.

No reputable PPC agency guarantees a specific cost per lead, because both are controlled by the Google Ads auction, the season, and your offer. What we guarantee is the work: conversion tracking shipped properly, dedicated landing pages per intent, monthly negative-keyword review (Roswell needs Artesia, Carlsbad, and Albuquerque negatives), weekly bid optimization, and reporting tied to revenue per lead. The cost-per-lead curve bends downward when the work is done right.

Quality Score is Google’s estimate of how relevant your ad and landing page are to the keyword. It directly affects your cost per click and ad position. We optimize Quality Score on three vectors: expected click-through rate (better ad copy, headline pinning where intent demands it), ad relevance (tight ad-group themes, one core keyword set per ad group), and landing-page experience (dedicated pages per intent, fast mobile load, message-match with the ad). A 7+ Quality Score on high-volume keywords often saves Roswell clients 30 to 50 percent on cost per click compared to a 4 or 5.

Three layers. Leading indicators: impressions, clicks, click-through rate, Quality Score, search impression share in the Roswell auction. Mid-funnel: conversion rate by ad group, conversion rate by landing page, call quality scoring. Revenue: leads delivered, cost per lead, ROAS, revenue attributed to paid via offline conversion imports from your CRM. The dashboard updates daily and the written report ships monthly with a strategy call.

Daily campaign monitoring during the first 30 days (weekly after), bid and budget optimization, ongoing ad copy and creative testing, landing page conversion-rate optimization, monthly negative-keyword review tuned to the Roswell geo (Artesia, Carlsbad, and Albuquerque all get filtered as needed), audience segmentation refinement, call quality scoring, monthly reporting tied to leads and revenue, and a strategy call with DJ Van Zanten. Roswell retainers above the base tier include landing page production and CRM offline-conversion wiring.

Yes. PPC is the fastest channel for a new Roswell business because it does not depend on review history or earned visibility, both of which take years to accrue in a small market. A new business with a real offer, a clean landing page, and proper conversion tracking can produce tracked leads within the first week. We typically pair an aggressive PPC launch with a measured SEO build over the next six months so the blended cost per lead drops as earned visibility compounds.
