Straight answers to what Austin business owners actually ask before running paid ads.
Google Ads capture intent — they reach people actively searching for your service right now. Meta Ads build awareness — they interrupt people who may not be looking yet but fit your target profile. The right mix depends on your market and budget. Most local businesses get the fastest ROI from Google first, then layer in Meta once they have a proven offer.
Most Austin-area local service businesses start with $500–$1,500/month in ad spend. The right budget depends on your average job value, your service area, and how competitive your keywords are. I can pull estimated cost-per-click data for your market before you commit to anything.
Every campaign includes conversion tracking — phone calls, form submissions, and booked appointments are tracked back to the specific ad and keyword that generated them. You see exactly what's working, not just clicks and impressions.
A dedicated landing page almost always outperforms sending traffic to your homepage. Landing pages match the ad's message, remove distractions, and focus the visitor on one action — calling or booking. Sending ad traffic to a generic homepage is one of the most common reasons campaigns underperform.
Unlike SEO, paid ads can generate leads within days of launch. The first 2–4 weeks are typically a learning phase where the algorithm optimizes delivery. Most local campaigns find their stride in the first 30 days.
