Google Local Service Ads 101

The Problem

Most local service based companies (Ie. Roofers, Chiropractors, Lawyers, etc,) are frustrated with their online advertising. It’s complicated, expensive, it’s always changing, and it’s difficult to track metrics and understand your ROI. 

The Solution

Enter: Google Local Service Ads. Google is now offering targeted ads for local service based companies, such as lawyers, dentists, roofers, and real estate agents. Local Services ads help you connect with people who search on Google for the services you offer. Your ads will show up for customers in your service area, and you only pay if a customer calls you directly through the ad. (from google)

Why It's So Effective:

Google Local Service ads are changing the marketing equation. Instead of having to spend time and resources testing and optimizing keywords, bids, copy, and your website, you now simply bid for phone calls that bring you business. These leads are higher quality and trackable. Google Local Service Ads show up very first on a Google search, above Google Adwords, above any SEO efforts, all of it. Google Local Service Ads are the future of advertising for businesses that operate in a local area.

What We Do

In addition to getting you registered with Google Local Services, we take it to the next level by listening to each and every phone call that Google sends your way. We catalog data, and send you a monthly report so you can see your ROI and make adjustments to phone calls to convert more sales. We also contest ineligible phone calls on your behalf to save you money. We save our customers, on average, $300 per month by contesting calls that aren’t real prospects.

We at Local Point Advertising will set you up with Google Local Services, Google Guarantee, and Google Screened. We will facilitate your registration and background check, set up the services you offer and the locations you offer them in. 

 

 

Google Guaranteed & Screened

Google Screened helps your business build a trusted online reputation. Your business can undergo extensive background and license checks and earn a Google Guarantee Check Mark Badge next to your name on Google, so customers can feel confident in working with you. 

Your business can also be backed by Google Guarantee, which adds a level of security for a customer. If a customer works with a Google Guaranteed business and is unsatisfied with the quality of their service, Google may reimburse them for the amount they paid for their initial service. This incentivises clients to use the Google Guarantee system when selecting a business to work with, therefore giving an advantage to companies who meet the Google Guarantee standards.
