Maps, reviews & reputation. Bundles with any plan
Content marketing comes with every website build. Reputation management comes with Google Business Profile. No bloated bundles, just the channels that grow your business.
A homeowner searches "landscape design near me" at 2 PM on a Tuesday. A contractor searches "hardscape installation jacksonville" during a project walkthrough. They're ready to book. They're comparing quotes. The first landscape company they click on either gets the job or loses it to a competitor. We get landscape design companies, lawn care services, and hardscaping specialists in front of ready-to-book customers through campaigns built by PPC experts who understand the landscaping business, not generic templates.
These are the high-intent keywords homeowners, property managers, and contractors search when they need professional landscape work. All CPCs reflect real 2026 US market data at the high end of competitive markets. Each keyword is carefully matched to relevant service pages on your landing.

Our proven 11-step framework. No shortcuts, no PMax, no guesswork. Here's exactly how we turn your ad spend into qualified landscape design leads and booked projects.
Separate high-intent landscaping keywords into 6 core ad groups: Landscape Design, Hardscaping, Lawn Care, Tree Service, Irrigation, and Specialty Maintenance. Each group gets custom messaging built for conversions, not clicks.
Each ad group gets unique headlines and descriptions. Design ads highlight "Custom Landscape Design," "Quality Guarantee," "Transform Your Outdoor Space." Hardscape ads emphasize "Patios & Driveways," "Professional Installation," "Premium Materials." Tree service ads focus on "Safety & Expertise," "Same-Day Service," "Licensed Arborist."
Design keywords go to a premium design portfolio page with project photos and transformations. Hardscape keywords go to a dedicated patio/driveway page. Lawn care keywords go to a maintenance-focused page emphasizing reliability. Tree service keywords go to a safety-certified page. Zero generic home pages. Every keyword matches its ideal landing page.
We use Target CPA bidding, not Maximize Clicks. We set Target CPA to $90–$150 (your cost per lead goal). Google's AI learns which clicks convert to quote requests and booked consultations, then bids higher on those. Wasted clicks on browsers go unfunded.
We don't spread $5,400/month equally across keywords. Design keywords (premium, high-value) get 30% of budget. Hardscaping gets 25%. Lawn care gets 20%. Tree service gets 15%. Specialty services get 10%. This mirrors search volume and conversion likelihood across your service mix.
For high-conversion design/hardscape keywords ($22–$25 CPC), we bid aggressively at position 1. For lower-volume keywords ($10–$16 CPC), we bid for positions 2–3. This maximizes ROI across the entire portfolio while staying within budget.
Every campaign includes call tracking phone numbers unique to each ad group. You see which keyword group drives phone inquiries and booked consultations. All form submissions on landing pages are tracked in Google Ads conversion reporting with a 48-hour conversion window.
70%+ of "landscaping near me" searches happen on mobile—usually while customers are comparing options in real time. All ads are mobile-first. Landing pages load under 1.2 seconds on 4G. Click-to-call button is above the fold on every page. Mobile form captures name, service needed, and property type.
Spring landscaping drives design/hardscape projects March–May. Summer maintenance drives lawn care May–August. Fall cleanup and winter landscape planning drive Nov–Dec. We shift ad spend 35% design/hardscape in spring, 40% lawn care in summer. Ad copy changes seasonally. Bid adjustments account for team capacity and project seasonality.
We monitor 5–7 top local landscaping competitors. We check their ad copy weekly, their landing pages, their bid positions. We identify messaging gaps. If competitors don't emphasize "Licensed & Certified," we do. If they avoid "Guaranteed Quality," that's our angle.
Every Monday: review last week's clicks, conversions, and booked consultations. Which ad groups underperformed? Increase negative keywords. Which landing pages have high bounce? Redesign. Which keywords have low conversion rate? Lower the bid or pause. Testing never stops. This is how campaigns stay profitable for years.
Your management fee covers active, hands-on campaign work—not a set-it-and-forget-it autopilot. Here's what we ship on every landscaping account.
Get a free Google Ads audit. We'll review your current account, run a competitive analysis, and show you exactly how many landscaping leads you're leaving on the table.
No generic templates. Each landing page is custom-built for its service type, with real project photos, testimonials, and a single clear goal: get the customer to call or book a free consultation NOW.
This is the result of a properly structured Google Ads campaign. No wasted spend on bottom-of-funnel keywords. No ads showing to people who will never book a consultation. Just high-quality landscape design leads, project inquiries, and maintenance appointments, day after day, that convert into booked projects and revenue.
We don't follow a template. Every campaign is custom-built with proven strategies that work in landscaping—and nowhere else.
We build Search-only campaigns with manual bidding and keyword-level control. No Display Network. No Audience Expansion. No Broad Match. We bid on the exact keywords that matter, at the exact bid we choose.
Design keywords get design expertise. Hardscape keywords get hardscape focus. Lawn care keywords get reliability messaging. Tree service gets safety certification emphasis. Each ad group is separately tracked, managed, and optimized. One account manager oversees each campaign personally.
We bid $18–$25 on premium keywords because those consultations are worth $2,500–$50,000+ in project revenue. We never compete on cheap clicks. We compete on conversions and booked projects. Our bids are 20–30% higher than competitors using Maximize Clicks—and our ROI is 2–3× better.
We know which keywords drive consultations, which drive booked projects, which waste budget. Every click is attributed to the exact keyword and ad group that generated it. This data drives weekly optimization decisions.
60%+ of landscaping searches are on mobile, often from people comparing options in real time. We optimize for speed (under 1.2 sec), click-to-call buttons, and mobile form fills. No desktop-first designs that fail on phones.
Every Monday, we review the prior week's performance. Which keywords performed? Which landed duds? We make 3–5 data-driven changes and report them to you monthly with impact on CPL and ROI forecasts.
We don't have a landscaping case study we can name publicly yet—so here is honest, verifiable proof from the home- and outdoor-services accounts we run with the same search-only, lead-quality playbook.
A bleeding ad account losing 95% of budget to unqualified traffic. Geo-fencing, tight segmentation, and Target CPA bidding turned it into a tuned lead engine.
A local mover outbid by national brands. Hyperlocal keywords, seasonal bidding, and 12 dedicated landing pages booked 2,400+ moves in Year 1.
Family-owned pest control, invisible online. Seasonal Google Ads plus reputation work drove #1 Local Pack rankings across 3 Florida cities.
We charge a management fee of $400–$900/month depending on the number of ad groups (typically 6 in landscaping campaigns) and the complexity of conversion tracking. This is in addition to ad spend. If you spend $5,400/month on ads, add $400–$900 for our management. Your total monthly investment is $5,800–$6,300. That investment returns 4–7× your ad spend in new project revenue. If your CPL is $90–$150 and your average project value is $1,500–$15,000, the ROI is substantial.
CPL is determined by CPC ÷ conversion rate. If the average CPC in landscaping is $12–$25 and your landing page converts 8–12%, the CPL is $100–$312. But we're selective with keywords. Design keywords ($22 CPC) convert at 12%. Hardscape ($24 CPC) converts at 10%. Lawn care ($14 CPC) converts at 11%. Tree service ($16 CPC) converts at 9%. Blended CPL across all groups: $90–$150. To lower CPL further, you'd either lower your CPC (meaning fewer quality leads) or raise conversion rates (meaning better landing pages). We optimize both constantly. Most clients see CPL drop by 25–35% in months 3–6 as we refine.
No. PMax campaigns (Google's automated AI bidding across Search, Display, YouTube, Gmail) waste 40–60% of your budget on low-intent clicks outside of Search. A homeowner searching "landscape design near me" on Google Search is 10× more likely to book a consultation than someone who sees your ad in YouTube. We only buy Search clicks. We bid aggressively on high-intent keywords. PMax campaigns optimize for clicks, not booked consultations. We optimize for revenue-generating projects. Our search-only approach costs more per click but delivers 3–4× better ROI.
Campaign launch: Day 1. Ads go live immediately. Keywords start showing. You'll see 25–50 clicks on day 1. Not all clicks convert to calls. Expected leads in week 1: 8–15. By week 2: 18–25 leads. By week 3–4: 40–50+ leads per week. This assumes we have proper call tracking and landing pages ready before launch. If we're building landing pages post-launch, add 1–2 weeks. Most clients hit 35–50+ leads/month by week 6 and maintain or exceed that long-term.
No contracts. Month-to-month. You can pause or stop anytime with 10 days notice. We don't lock you in. That said, landscaping Google Ads campaigns get better over time. Weeks 1–4 are setup and initial optimization. Months 2–4 are refinement. Months 5–12 are when you see peak ROI and lowest CPL. If you leave after 6 weeks, you miss the compound gains. Most clients commit 6–12 months because the ROI accelerates and lead quality improves. But it's your choice.
Great question. Your unique selling points drive all messaging. Do you offer same-day design consultations? Other competitors don't—we emphasize that. Do you use sustainable practices? Do you guarantee plant health? Do you specialize in high-end design? Do you have the most 5-star reviews? Do you offer warranty on hardscape work? Each of these becomes the core message of your ad group and landing pages. We analyze your top 5–7 competitors weekly. If they don't claim "Certified Arborists," that's your angle. If they avoid "Warranty," that's yours. Your differentiation is baked into every ad and every landing page we build.
Google Ads is just one part of the strategy. Most landscaping companies need Google Ads + Local SEO + web design. We handle all three.
