Why Choose Us

What Makes Us a Real Online Advertising Agency

Most agencies sell impressions and clicks. We sell tracked leads and revenue, across every channel that actually moves the needle for local service businesses.

🎯

Lead-Quantified, Not Vanity-Quantified

Every account starts with conversion tracking, call tracking, and form attribution. If we cannot tie an ad dollar to a lead, we will not scale that spend. Reports show cost-per-lead, not cost-per-click theater.

🔗

One Strategy Across Four Channels

Google Search, Microsoft Bing, Meta, and Local Services Ads operate as a single funnel. Search captures intent. Meta retargets the ones who did not convert. LSAs scoop up the high-trust calls. One team, one strategy, one report.

Daily Management, Not Set-and-Forget

Bids reviewed daily. Negative keywords pruned weekly. Ad copy tested monthly. Account audits quarterly. The work is the work — there is no shortcut, and most agencies do not put in the hours.

🔐

You Own Your Accounts

Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Meta Business — you are the owner, we are a user. If you leave, you walk out with every campaign, every conversion record, every retargeting audience. No hostage data, no rebuild from zero.

📞

Built Around Local Service Economics

HVAC, plumbing, roofing, dental, law firms, home services. Verticals where each lead is worth $200-$5,000 and the math supports paying $40-$200 to acquire it. We do not work in dropshipping or B2C ecommerce — the playbook is different.

📝

Month-to-Month, Not Locked-In

No 12-month contracts. 30 days' notice to leave. If we are not generating profitable leads, we should not get to keep the account. That keeps us honest and keeps your options open.

Channels We Run

The Full Paid Media Stack Under One Roof

One team, one report, one weekly call. No tag-team handoffs between PPC, social, and LSA shops.

Google Search Ads Primary

The first dollar in for most service businesses. Buyer is already searching with intent. Exact and phrase match keywords, manual bidding by default, no PMax or Broad waste.

  • Manual Search campaigns only
  • Negative keyword lists pruned weekly
  • Quality Score-driven ad copy
  • Geo-targeting tightened to service radius

Microsoft Bing Ads Cheaper CPCs

Bing has 20-30% of search volume in most service verticals — and CPCs that run 30-50% lower than Google. Older demographics, higher household income, often higher conversion rate.

  • Cross-imported from Google with Bing-native edits
  • Lower CPCs — same or better lead quality
  • Full Microsoft Ads (Bing) management
  • Edge browser default search advantage

Google Local Services Ads LSAs

Pay-per-lead at the top of search results, with the Google Guaranteed badge. The highest-trust paid placement in local service search. We handle verification, dispute calls, and bid management.

  • Verification + Google Guaranteed setup
  • Weekly lead dispute review
  • Bid & budget pacing
  • Review pipeline integration

Meta Ads (Facebook + Instagram) Retarget

Where you fish for demand that has not searched yet. Best used for retargeting website visitors, promoting financing, seasonal pushes, and lead-form campaigns for high-frequency services.

  • Meta lead forms with CRM integration
  • Retargeting from website + LSA + Search
  • Lookalike audiences from CRM data
  • Creative testing & copy iteration

YouTube Video Ads Top-of-Funnel

For brands ready to invest in awareness before the search happens. Skippable in-stream ads, bumper ads, and Demand Gen formats. We script, edit, and traffic the creative.

  • Demand Gen campaigns
  • Skippable in-stream & bumpers
  • Geo + demo + intent layering
  • View-through conversion tracking

Retargeting & Display Recapture

Google Display Network and Meta retargeting layered to recapture site visitors who did not convert. Frequency capped. Excluded from anyone who converted in the last 30 days.

  • GDN retargeting with frequency caps
  • Custom audience exclusion lists
  • Dynamic remarketing for ecommerce
  • Cross-channel attribution modeling
What's Included

What You Actually Get From Our Online Advertising Agency

Eight things that happen every month on every account. No hand-waving, no "we'll get to it next quarter."

Conversion & Call Tracking Setup

CallRail or equivalent installed on day one. Every form, every call, every chat session is tracked back to the ad that drove it. Without this, paid ads is gambling.

Keyword Strategy & Match-Type Discipline

Exact and phrase match only. Negative keyword lists tuned weekly. We will not let Google auto-broaden your terms into garbage traffic.

Ad Copy A/B Testing

Three to five ad variations per ad group, rotated, and the losers killed off every 14-30 days. Headlines built around the searcher's intent, not your brand voice.

Conversion-Built Landing Pages

One landing page per service line, built to convert. Single CTA, mobile-first, click-to-call above the fold. Most businesses see 3-5x conversion rate jump vs. their existing homepage.

Multi-Channel Attribution Reporting

One monthly report showing leads, cost-per-lead, and ROAS across every channel. No more pulling six dashboards and adding them up in a spreadsheet.

Weekly Optimization Calls (Optional)

For accounts spending $20K+/mo we offer weekly 30-min strategy calls. Smaller accounts get bi-weekly. You always have a real human on the other end of the email.

Account Ownership & Portability

You own the Google Ads ID, the Meta Business Manager, the Microsoft account. We are a managed user. If you ever leave, the data goes with you.

Quarterly Strategy Review

Every 90 days we sit down (Zoom or phone) and rebuild the priority list. What is working, what is wasting money, what is next quarter's bet. This is where bad accounts get fixed.

An Illustrative HVAC Campaign 90-Day Snapshot

Composite of typical HVAC engagements at the $8K-$15K/mo ad-spend range. Not a single named client.

Multi-location HVAC contractor, Southeast US, $12K/mo ad budget

Illustrative Composite

Starting state. The business was running Google Ads through a national franchise-supplied agency. Search Partners network was enabled. PMax was on. Broad-match keywords. No call tracking. Reports showed "clicks" and "CTR" but no leads. Owner could not say what a lead actually cost.

What we changed in 30 days. Killed PMax. Turned off Search Partners. Migrated all keywords to phrase and exact match. Wrote a 200-line negative keyword list from search-term data. Built one landing page per service (install, repair, maintenance). Installed CallRail and set up conversion import. Layered Microsoft Bing at 20% of Google spend. Added LSAs and got the Google Guaranteed badge.

Why it worked. The problem was never the ad budget — it was unattributed spend. Once every click was tracked to a lead and the obvious waste (PMax, Broad, Search Partners) was cut, the same $12K/mo started producing real work orders. Most service businesses we onboard have a version of this story.

FAQ

Online Advertising Agency Questions Answered

Real questions from real owners evaluating real agencies. Straight answers.

A real online advertising agency builds, runs, and optimizes paid media campaigns across Google Search, Microsoft Bing, Meta, YouTube, and Local Services Ads. The job is not posting ads — it is turning your ad budget into measurable leads or sales with conversion tracking, daily bid management, ad-copy testing, negative-keyword pruning, and landing-page work. Anyone selling impressions or clicks without tracked conversions is selling the wrong product.
Management fees scale with ad spend. On accounts spending $100,000+/month we charge 8-10% of spend. Mid-market accounts in the $20K-$50K/mo range pay roughly 12-15%. Smaller accounts under $10K/mo sit at a flat $400-$1,200/mo minimum so the work is still done correctly. Ad spend itself is paid directly to Google, Microsoft, or Meta — you own the accounts.
For most local service businesses, Google Search Ads is the first dollar in — the buyer is already raising their hand. Once Search is profitable, Local Services Ads layer on for HVAC, plumbing, electricians, locksmiths, and home services. Meta Ads is where you fish for demand that has not searched yet — great for retargeting site visitors, promoting financing offers, and seasonal pushes. The right channel mix depends on your CPL economics, not on what the agency wants to sell.
Google Search Ads can generate leads on day one. The first 30 days are usually a calibration window — you are buying data more than buying leads. By day 60-90 we have killed off the keywords that waste money, doubled down on the ones that convert, and the cost-per-lead has typically dropped 30-50% from launch. SEO is a separate timeline — 6-12 months. Paid ads is the channel that pays this month's payroll.
No. We run month-to-month with 30 days' notice. Long contracts protect agencies, not clients. If we are not generating leads at a cost-per-lead that makes you money, you should be able to leave. You own the Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, and Meta Business accounts — we are a user on them, not the owner.
Leads and revenue. Impressions and clicks are inputs, not outputs. Every account gets call tracking, form-fill tracking, and where possible CRM-backed revenue attribution. Monthly reports show cost-per-lead, lead-to-customer rate (when you share it back), and ROAS. If we cannot trace an ad dollar to a lead, we treat it as untracked spend and fix it before scaling.
For Google Search, $1,500/mo ad spend is roughly the floor where a service business gets enough click volume to optimize against. Below that, paid ads becomes a coin flip. We do work with smaller budgets when there is a path to scaling — but we will tell you up front if the math does not work yet.
Yes. Media Spearhead is a Google Premier Partner — the top 3% of agencies in the Google Partners program by performance, spend, and certification. That gives our accounts access to Google account-manager support, beta features, and priority issue resolution.
Local service businesses where each lead has real economic value — HVAC, plumbing, roofing, dental, medical, law firms, home services, pest control, restoration, electricians, locksmiths, towing. The economics work because one job is worth $500-$50,000+, so paying $40-$200 to acquire that lead is profitable. We do not work in dropshipping, B2C ecommerce, or anything where CPL has to be $5.
Yes. Ads that send traffic to a generic homepage convert at 1-2%. Ads pointed at a purpose-built landing page convert at 8-15%. We build conversion-tracked landing pages as part of the engagement — usually one per service line. Landing pages are $800-$1,000 for a single-service page, $1,500-$2,500 for a multi-service Most Popular build, and $4,000-$5,000 for full site scale.
