Ads That Bring In Jobs.
Not Just Clicks.

Running Google Ads without knowing what you’re doing is an expensive way to learn. We manage advertising specifically for concrete contractors — so we know what works, what doesn’t, and how to make every dollar count.

Where We Run Your Ads

Three Ad Platforms. One Clear Goal — More Jobs.

Each platform serves a different purpose. We use all three together to cover your market — capturing homeowners at every stage from searching to browsing to ready to buy.

Highest Intent
🔍

Google Search Ads

Show up at the very top of Google the moment someone searches for a concrete contractor in your area. These are homeowners with their wallets out — they’re searching because they’re ready to hire.

Target exact searches — “concrete driveway contractor near me”
Only pay when someone actually clicks your ad
Show up above organic results and the map pack
Target your specific service area radius
Guaranteed Calls

Google Local Services Ads

The “Google Guaranteed” badge that appears above everything else — even regular ads. You only pay when a homeowner actually calls you. Not per click, not per impression. Per call.

Google Guaranteed badge builds instant trust
Pay per call — not per click
Appears at the very top of Google search results
Your reviews and rating displayed prominently
Visual Impact
📘

Facebook & Instagram Ads

Reach homeowners in your area before they even start searching. Concrete work is highly visual — before/after photos of driveways and patios stop the scroll and plant the seed before a competitor does.

Target homeowners by location, age, and home ownership
Before/after project photos drive high engagement
Retarget people who’ve visited your website
Great for seasonal pushes — spring driveways, summer patios

What We Handle

Everything That Goes Into Running Ads That Work.

Running ads isn’t just turning them on and hoping for the best. There’s strategy, setup, creative, targeting, bidding, tracking, and ongoing optimization. We handle all of it.

Campaign Strategy & Setup

We build campaigns around the specific jobs you want — driveways, patios, stamped concrete, commercial — with the right keywords, targeting, and bid strategy from day one.

Ad Copy & Creative

We write ad copy specifically for concrete contractors — headlines that match what homeowners are searching for and descriptions that give them a reason to click yours over a competitor’s.

Landing Pages That Convert

Sending ad traffic to your homepage is a waste of money. We build or optimize landing pages matched to each campaign so visitors have one clear action — call or fill out a form.

Full Tracking & Attribution

Every lead tagged with the exact ad, keyword, and campaign that produced it. You know which ads are generating real jobs — not just clicks — and we optimize toward those.

Weekly Optimization

We review performance every week — pausing what isn’t working, scaling what is, adjusting bids, and testing new approaches. Your ad budget is never on autopilot.

// Monthly Campaign Performance — Example
Ad Spend This Month $2,400
Leads Generated 34 leads
Cost Per Lead $71
Jobs Booked from Ads 11 jobs
Estimated Revenue from Ads $38,500
Performance varies by market, competition, and ad budget. These figures are illustrative examples.

Why It’s Different

We Don't Just Run Ads. We Manage the Whole System.

Most agencies run your ads and send you a report at the end of the month. We connect everything — the ads, the landing pages, the lead capture, and the follow-up — so every dollar you spend has the best possible chance of turning into a booked job.

Concrete Contractors Only

We don’t run ads for restaurants, lawyers, or retailers. We only work with concrete contractors — which means our keyword lists, ad copy, and targeting are already built around your industry.

Every Lead Gets Followed Up

When a lead comes from an ad, an automatic text goes out immediately. No leads go cold because you were on a job site. The follow-up happens whether you’re available or not.

We Track Jobs, Not Just Clicks

Clicks and impressions don’t pay your bills. We track leads all the way to booked jobs so you can see exactly what your ad spend is producing in real revenue — not vanity metrics.

Ads and SEO Working Together

Ads fill your pipeline immediately while SEO builds long-term organic rankings. We run both together so you’re getting leads from day one and building an asset that pays off for years.

Questions

Straight Answers About Online Ads

Common questions concrete contractors ask before starting an ad campaign.

How much should I spend on ads?+
For most concrete contractors, we recommend starting with $1,500 to $2,500 per month in ad spend. That’s enough to generate meaningful data and consistent leads without burning money on an unproven setup. As we optimize and find what works in your market, it usually makes sense to increase budget on the campaigns that are producing jobs. We never recommend a budget that doesn’t make sense for your average job value and close rate.
How quickly will I see results from ads?+
Google Search Ads can start generating leads within the first week once campaigns are live. The first 30 days are a learning phase — we’re gathering data on which keywords, ads, and landing pages perform best in your specific market. By month 2 and 3, performance typically improves significantly as we optimize based on real data. Unlike SEO, you don’t have to wait months to see any movement.
What’s the difference between Google Ads and Google Local Services Ads?+
Google Ads appear at the top of Google when someone searches a keyword. You pay per click — whether they call you or not. Google Local Services Ads appear above regular ads with a Google Guaranteed badge. You only pay when a homeowner calls you directly from the ad. LSAs are great for concrete contractors because you’re paying for actual calls, not just traffic. We typically recommend running both together for maximum coverage.
Do I need ads if I’m already doing SEO?+
They serve different purposes. SEO builds organic rankings over time — it’s an asset that keeps generating leads without ongoing ad spend. Ads generate leads immediately but stop the moment you stop paying. Most concrete contractors benefit from running both — ads fill the pipeline while SEO is building, and once SEO is strong, ads can focus on specific campaigns like stamped concrete or commercial work where SEO might take longer to rank.
How do you know which ads are producing actual jobs?+
Every lead is tracked back to the exact ad, keyword, and campaign that generated it. When a lead fills out a form or calls from an ad, that information is captured automatically. We can then see not just which ads generated leads but which leads turned into booked jobs — giving you a true cost per job number rather than just cost per click or cost per lead.
Can you take over ads that are already running?+
Yes. We do this regularly. We’ll audit your existing campaigns first — identifying wasted spend, missing keywords, poor landing pages, and tracking gaps. Then we rebuild what needs rebuilding and optimize what’s working. Most contractors who come to us with existing campaigns are spending significantly more per lead than they should be, and we’re usually able to reduce that within the first 60 to 90 days.
