Google Ads and Social Ads Management for Local Businesses

Ads put your business in front of people who are ready to call, book, or buy today. Web & Funnel plans the campaigns, writes the ads, builds the pages they land on, and reports each month on what the spend brought back.

What does ad management include?

Ad management covers everything between your budget and a new customer: choosing what to advertise, picking the searches and audiences to target, writing the ads, building the landing page, setting up tracking, and adjusting the campaign as results come in.

We run search campaigns on Google and paid social campaigns on Meta (Facebook and Instagram). Most local service businesses start with Google search, because it reaches people at the moment they are looking for the service.

When do ads make sense, and when don't they?

Ads make sense when you want leads sooner than organic search can deliver them, when you have a specific offer or season to promote, or when you are entering a market where nobody knows you yet.

They make less sense when the website can't convert the visitors it already gets, or when there is no way to tell which leads came from the ads. In those cases we fix the page and the tracking first. We will tell you plainly if we think your budget is better spent elsewhere.

How do ads work alongside SEO?

Ads and organic search do different jobs. Ads bring results while you pay for them. SEO, AI visibility, and local listings take longer to build and keep working without a monthly ad bill.

Running both gives you leads now and lowers what you depend on ads for later. The search terms that convert in your ad campaigns also show us which pages are worth writing for organic search.

What we handle

  • Campaign plan — what to advertise, to whom, where, and with what budget.
  • Ad writing and creative — search ads, and image or video ads for social.
  • Landing pages — a page built for the ad, so a click has one clear next step.
  • Conversion tracking — calls, forms, and bookings tied back to the campaign that produced them.
  • Ongoing adjustments — search terms, bids, audiences, and ad copy reviewed and tuned.
  • Monthly report — what was spent, what it produced, and what we will change next.

Frequently asked questions

Who pays for the ad spend?

You do, directly to Google or Meta, from your own ad account. Our fee covers planning, building, and managing the campaigns. Keeping the account in your name means the history and data stay with you.

How soon will I see results from ads?

Ads can start sending visitors the day a campaign goes live. It usually takes several weeks of real data before a campaign is tuned well enough to judge fairly, so we review early results with you rather than drawing conclusions from the first few days.

Do I need a new website before running ads?

Not always. Often one focused landing page is enough to start. If the current site is slow, confusing, or has no clear way to contact you, we will recommend fixing that first so the ad budget isn't wasted.
