PPC in Tracy, answered

Which Tracy searches deserve the budget

A Google Ads account in Tracy lives on the click price, and Lithium Marketing builds the tracking that shows which click became a call. Pest control clicks in Tracy average $34.11 and HVAC repair clicks in Tracy average $44.48, while a campaign without call tracking spends blind.

The spread matters. Landscaping clicks in Tracy average $11.67 and plumbing clicks in Tracy average $33.21, while a garage door company needs a tighter search list and a landing page that earns the call. We set the budget by trade and by the jobs your crews can take.

The Tracy market

Heat waves and quoted work

Tracy averages 18 days a year of 100 °F highs. If a heat wave brings the calls, put more of the month's spend in front of those days and less after them, so the account is not catching up after the rush.

San Joaquin County has 183 residential remodelers, and a remodel is a quoted project. Those campaigns need a landing page built for estimates and a longer look before you judge cost per lead.

The first 30 days

The first month of a Tracy ad account

The account starts with measurement, and every budget change after that is tied to a call.

1

Read the account you have

We open the existing campaigns and sort them: the ones that booked work, and the searches that spent money without a call.

2

Wire the tracking

Conversion tags, GA4 and call tracking connect a call or a form to the keyword and ad that produced it.

3

Build a page per job

Your best-selling job gets a campaign and a landing page of its own, and so does the second one.

4

Adjust bids daily, then weekly

The first 30 days get daily attention on bids and negatives. After that, the account is reviewed weekly against your Tracy budget.

What every Google Ads account includes

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

The work behind a fence company's numbers

Matt Johnson's recommendation comes from his time running On-Target Landscape. The numbers on the card come from Lithium's Google Ads work for the fencing company, plus a new site and SEO.

FAQ

Tracy Google Ads questions, answered

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What does PPC management cost in Tracy?

Management starts at $500 a month, plus ad spend. The exact fee depends on the size of the account, and you approve it before anything launches.

What starting budget makes sense for a Tracy trade?

A budget is set by the jobs you want, not by a round number. The click costs in the table above vary enough that the same spend buys a different number of calls in each trade, so we start from what a booked job is worth and size the first month from that.

How soon does the phone ring?

The first calls usually land within a week of launch, with tracking live from day one. After that the account shrinks before it grows: searches that never book are cut, and the budget moves to the jobs you can take.

How long is the PPC agreement?

Six months is the standard term, then the agreement runs month to month on 30 days' notice. The management fee is written into it, so you see the whole cost before the account launches.

Does the Google Ads account belong to me?

It does. The account is in your name from the start, so the history, conversion data and campaigns stay with you if you stop working with Lithium.
