How a 78-year-old Gulf Coast glass company drove 76% more Google Ads conversions on a 2.29% spend increase.
Wilsonville service businesses face a south-Portland-metro auction where the cheapest click is rarely the cheapest lead. 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.
DIXIE GLASS — GOOGLE ADS REBUILD
Three things Wilsonville PPC programs miss that we don't.
Wilsonville sits inside the Portland auction.
Geo-targeting Wilsonville as a standalone market loses impression share to Portland and Tualatin competitors bidding the same I-5 corridor keywords. Treating Wilsonville as a Portland-metro suburb with its own ZIP-level intent pattern is the way the math works. We build the geo-radius, ad copy, and bid strategy to match.
Wilsonville buyers respond to operator-level local copy.
Xerox, Mentor Graphics, and Rockwell Collins anchor a tech-and-engineering workforce that researches before they call. Generic Portland-template ad copy gets dismissed. Copy that names a real Wilsonville reference and matches the technical buyer's expectations earns the click.
Wilsonville PPC math closes on cost per booked lead.
We report leading indicators weekly during the first month and shift to a monthly cadence built around leads, cost per lead, and revenue. Click counts are a diagnostic, not the scoreboard. The strategy call walks you through what is working and what to cut.
Ranking for queries that do not convert
In Wilsonville, 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 Wilsonville 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.
Eight things we ship inside every Wilsonville PPC retainer, not as upsells.
Wilsonville campaigns need conversion infrastructure tuned for the Portland-metro auction and a tech-and-engineering buyer base. Here is what every retainer ships with.
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 Wilsonville 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 Wilsonville 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 Wilsonville 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.
The verticals where our Wilsonville PPC playbook turns clicks into customers most reliably.
Wilsonville’s economy runs on the Xerox manufacturing and R&D campus, the Mentor Graphics (now Siemens EDA) engineering base, the Rockwell Collins facility, the Coffee Creek correctional and regional logistics tier along I-5, and the steady residential service base feeding the south-Portland-metro families that have moved out of Tualatin and Lake Oswego. These are the verticals where our PPC programs deliver the most consistent cost-per-lead math.
Wilsonville’s housing stock concentrates in the master-planned Charbonneau community, the Villebois and Frog Pond developments, and the older neighborhoods around Town Center. Pacific Northwest moisture and mature tree cover drive a steady cycle of roofing, gutter, and moss-treatment volume. We build emergency-intent campaigns with call-only ads, geo-targeting across Wilsonville plus Sherwood, Tualatin, and Canby, and tap-to-call landing pages that load fast. Cost per lead typically lands $80 to $150 once the campaign is optimized given the Portland-metro CPC depth.
Independent dental and medical practices in Wilsonville orbit the Legacy Meridian Park Medical Center in Tualatin, the Providence and Kaiser networks across the Portland metro, and the OHSU footprint to the north. We run procedure-specific ad groups, insurance-friendly landing pages tuned for Kaiser Permanente, Providence Health Plan, and Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield of Oregon enrollment cycles, and conversion tracking through your booking platform. The tech-workforce demographic across Xerox, Siemens, and the surrounding suppliers brings strong employer-PPO volume.
General contractors in Wilsonville handle a steady mix of new builds in Villebois and Frog Pond, ADU work driven by Oregon’s accessory-dwelling-unit legislation, mid-century remodels across Charbonneau, and tree and weather-damage restoration through the wet season. We run project-type ad groups, image creative with real Wilsonville project photography, and quote-form landing pages with realistic price-range expectations for the Portland-metro labor market.
Wilsonville attorneys, CPAs, and financial advisors compete in a Portland-metro auction where Oregon State Bar compliance governs ad copy. We run practice-area campaigns tied to actual buyer intent (personal injury from I-5 and the 205 corridor, family law, estate planning for the older Charbonneau demographic, technology and employment law for the Siemens and Xerox workforce), consultation-booking landing pages, and conversion tracking that ties the high-CPC click to a booked call.
Wilsonville’s restaurants run from the Town Center cluster to the Old Town district along Boones Ferry Road and the destination operators along the Willamette River. We build local-intent campaigns, reservation-platform conversion tracking, event-driven campaign scheduling around the Wilsonville Festival of the Arts and the Portland-metro corporate-entertainment cycles, and geo-fenced ad groups for catering inquiries from Xerox, Siemens, and the regional logistics-park corporate buyers.
Auto repair, body shops, and detailing in Wilsonville compete on emergency-intent searches from commuters on I-5 and the 205 corridor running between Wilsonville, Tualatin, and Portland. We run service-emergency call-only campaigns, OEM-targeted ad groups including a meaningful EV and hybrid mix given the Portland-metro demographic, parts and labor landing pages, and dynamic call extensions during business hours. Geo-targeting extends north to Tualatin and south to Canby to capture commute-route searches.
Specialty retail in Wilsonville concentrates around the Argyle Square shopping center, the Town Center retail corridor, and the regional pull from the Wilsonville Premium Outlets in Woodburn just south. We run Google Shopping campaigns with product feeds, local-inventory ads, store-visit conversion tracking, and remarketing audiences segmented by category. The Oregon no-sales-tax dynamic pulls regional buyers from Washington and Idaho into the broader Portland-metro retail footprint, which we factor into geo-radius budgeting.
Wilsonville’s B2B economy is anchored by the technology and engineering base across Xerox, Siemens EDA, and Rockwell Collins, plus the rapidly expanding logistics and e-commerce warehousing along I-5. We run LinkedIn-paired Google Ads campaigns for buyers in semiconductor and electronics design, enterprise printing and document services, and third-party logistics, gated-content lead-gen funnels, and long-cycle attribution wired through HubSpot or Salesforce. Cost per qualified opportunity matters more than cost per first-touch lead.
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.
Audit and strategy
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 Wilsonville buyer journeys, and revenue per lead. You receive an audit deliverable in week one with priorities ranked by impact.
Conversion infrastructure
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.
Campaign build
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.
Launch and learning phase
We build your Wilsonville campaigns from the ground up: ad groups by intent, ad copy with the maximum Responsive Search Ads asset count, sitelinks tuned to Wilsonville 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.
Ongoing optimization
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.
Measurement and monthly iteration
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 Wilsonville. Not what looks good on a vanity chart.
What a Wilsonville service-business owner actually gets, by PPC approach.
Transparent pricing. Management starts at $500/month, separate from your ad spend.
Typical Wilsonville service businesses run $500 to $1,500 per month in management on top of $2,000 to $5,000 in monthly ad spend. Pricing scales with 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.

Wilsonville PPC, straight answers.
A properly built Wilsonville campaign starts producing tracked conversions within the first week of launch. The first 30 days are a learning phase where the algorithm calibrates on Portland-metro auction data and the Wilsonville-specific geo signal. Cost per lead typically stabilizes by month two and improves through month three as negative-keyword lists tighten and landing pages get conversion-rate-tested. We report weekly during the first month, monthly after that.
Wilsonville CPCs run $5 to $11 on home services and $12 to $24 on legal, riding the Portland-metro auction. The Wilsonville buyer pool runs above the Oregon state median income thanks to the tech-and-engineering employer concentration. A well-tracked Wilsonville campaign delivers cost per leads under $115 in trades and under $230 in legal. PPC works in Wilsonville when the campaign respects the Portland-metro CPC reality rather than pretending it is a small Oregon town.
Management starts at $500 per month, separate from your ad spend. Typical Wilsonville service businesses run $500 to $1,500 per month in management on top of $2,000 to $5,000 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 or conversion rate, 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, weekly bid optimization, and reporting tied to revenue per lead. The cost-per-lead curve bends downward when the work is done right, on a predictable timeline.
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 Wilsonville 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, and search impression share in the Wilsonville and broader Portland-metro 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, audience segmentation refinement, call quality scoring, monthly reporting tied to leads and revenue, and a strategy call with DJ Van Zanten. Wilsonville retainers above the base tier include landing page production and CRM offline-conversion wiring for the B2B technology accounts.
Yes. PPC is the fastest channel for a new Wilsonville business because it does not depend on domain authority, review history, or earned search visibility in a Portland-metro auction where established competitors have years of compounding organic equity. A new business with a real offer, a clean landing page, and proper conversion tracking can produce tracked leads within the first week. The continuing build-out across Villebois and Frog Pond is adding fresh households without entrenched provider relationships.
