Paid search, measured

What a Sandy Springs PPC budget has to prove

Paid search in Sandy Springs is not cheap, and every click is a chance to buy a conversation or waste one. Lithium Marketing runs Google Ads with call tracking, server-side conversion tracking and a landing page written for one job type, so a click has somewhere to go and a way to report back. The fee is from $500 a month in management, plus ad spend, and the account is tuned daily through the first 30 days, then weekly.

When we checked the page for “plumber sandy springs”, two paid ads appeared alongside the Map Pack and the organic results. Two paid ads on one day are not a permanent picture of the auction, so the campaign is judged on calls and booked jobs, not on how crowded the page looks.

Sandy Springs seasons

A budget that follows the year

Sandy Springs has a humid subtropical climate, and a hot, sticky stretch can fill a service calendar, but your own call history decides whether that happens in your trade. When it does, put more budget in the weeks before the rush and less after it.

Sandy Springs covers 37.71 square miles and has 55,203 housing units, and each one is a possible service address. A campaign that targets the whole city at once spreads its budget thin, so the account starts with the districts and neighboring cities where your crews already work and widens only when the calls justify it.

Trades in Fulton County

Which trade clicks deserve the budget

Fulton County has 37 pest control companies and 66 painting contractors. A pest control campaign can bid on the treatment searches and send that click to a page built to book the inspection; a painting campaign has to show finished rooms before it asks for a walkthrough.

The click price changes the math. Pest control averages $34.18 a click on about 110 searches a month for “pest control sandy springs”, while landscaping clicks average $19.72. A pest company can afford fewer wasted clicks than a landscaper, so negative keywords and a tighter service area matter more in that account.

The first month

How a Sandy Springs account gets built

Tracking is wired before the budget moves, and the campaigns follow your calendar after that.

1

Find the wasted spend

Your existing account gets read line by line: the campaigns that convert stay, and the queries that spent money without a call get named.

2

Put a number on every call

GA4, call tracking and conversion tags put a keyword and an ad next to every call and form, including the ones that arrive after hours.

3

One page per kind of job

Your best work gets its own campaign and landing page, so a drain call and a repipe do not land on the same screen.

4

Thirty days of close watch

For 30 days the bids and queries get reviewed each morning; after that the account moves to a weekly check against the budget calendar.

What every Google Ads account includes

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

Proof

Which glass company number came from the ad account

Town & Country Glass makes commercial glass. Its card carries results from a new website, SEO and Google Ads, and the conversion figure belongs to the ads account, not the organic work. Drake Snodgrass, of the garden center Drake’s 7 Dees, is the separate quote.

FAQ

Google Ads questions from Sandy Springs owners

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What starting budget makes sense here?

Start with the trade. Garage door clicks average $75.66 and landscaping clicks $19.72, so the same monthly spend buys very different numbers of visits. We set the first month around what one booked job is worth in your trade, then adjust once the tracked calls show the real cost per lead.

What should the first week look like?

Call volume typically starts within the first week, because the campaign begins with the searches closest to what you already sell. The first month is for cutting terms that never turn into a conversation; after that the account runs on what the data shows. Nobody can promise a number of calls.

What does management cost, and what moves the fee?

Management is from $500 a month, plus ad spend. What moves it: how much ad spend you run, which channels are in play and whether landing pages are part of the work. Your ad spend goes to Google, and the management fee is separate and agreed before launch.

Which other channels do you manage?

Sometimes. Lithium also manages Microsoft Ads and Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram, and LinkedIn for the trades that sell to businesses. The first channel is the one where calls cost least, and another gets added only when its tracked return is clear.

Which report shows the jobs behind the clicks?

Reports start with the account's own call and form data: calls, leads and cost per lead for each campaign. When you tell us which leads became jobs, the campaign review covers the work behind the leads, not the click alone.
