Profitable Google Search and Performance Max campaigns built for NZ service businesses. Flat management fee. We do not touch your spend until your tracking is right.
Three things kill 90% of Google Ads accounts: bad tracking, bad keyword match types, and a generic offer. We fix all three before we touch the spend.
You cannot improve what you cannot measure. Most accounts we audit have broken or fake conversion tracking. We fix this on day one.
Google's defaults will burn your budget on irrelevant searches. We use tightly controlled match types and aggressive negative keyword lists.
If your ad says the same thing as the next ten, the cheapest bidder wins. We work on the offer first, the bid strategy second.
No magic, no hacks, no growth-hacker theatre. Just the same three steps, run properly, every month.
Before a dollar moves, we make sure conversions track properly and the offer is tight. If they are not, that is the first job.
Search campaigns with proper match types, ad groups by intent, responsive search ads tested against control. Performance Max only when assets justify it.
Search term reports, negative keywords, bid adjustments, ad copy tests, landing page tweaks. Plain-English weekly update on what changed and why.
Google Ads is faster than SEO. We back it with a deliverables-based 30-day guarantee on management fees. If the agreed list is not shipped in 30 days, fees come back.
See how the guarantee worksGoogle Ads is the fastest way to be at the top of search results paid, but instant. The catch: most people set it up wrong and waste hundreds. We build campaigns that only show your ad to people ready to buy, then keep tweaking until your cost-per-call is as low as possible.
Anyone who needs leads now (not in 30 days). If you've got a budget of $500/month or more and want to test a market quickly, Google Ads is the move. Especially good for emergencies (plumbers, locksmiths, towing) and high-ticket services.
Paying for 'plumber' when you only serve North Shore. Wasted spend every day.
Counting clicks as success. We track actual phone calls and form fills.
Your homepage isn't a landing page. We build dedicated pages that convert.
Showing up for 'DIY plumbing tips' instead of 'emergency plumber Auckland'.
Google Ads needs weekly tuning. Most agencies touch it once a month. We don't.
