What is Google Local Service Ads?
Google Local Services Ads put eligible service businesses in Google's high-visibility local results — above regular search results — when homeowners are searching for help. We handle eligibility, Google's setup and verification process, service and budget configuration, lead tracking, and ongoing management.
WHY LOCAL SERVICES ADS
The most visible place a local job search can land.
Eligible businesses show up in Google's Local Services results — right where a homeowner is deciding who to call — and every lead is tracked toward real, booked work.
Full Approval Handling
Eligibility checks, Google's verification process, service and budget setup — all handled for you.
Real Lead Quality Review
We review lead quality and pursue credits for low-quality leads instead of assuming every lead is good.
Tracked to the Booked Job
When the data is available, we connect leads to actual booked work — not just impressions and clicks.
BEFORE WE CAN TURN IT ON
Google has rules. You have to qualify.
Local Services Ads aren't available to every business. Google decides who is eligible and requires businesses to complete its verification process.
Depending on your trade and location, be prepared to provide:
Verified Google Business ProfileYour business needs an active, verified Google Business Profile.
Required Business & Trade LicensesYou hold the licenses required for your trade and location.
Proof of InsuranceGoogle may require proof of applicable business insurance.
Business VerificationYour legal business information needs to match what you submit to Google.
Background or Identity ChecksSome trades and locations require owners, businesses or service professionals to complete additional screening.
Customer ReviewsSome categories may have minimum review requirements.
Eligible Trade & LocationLocal Services Ads must actually be available for your type of business in the market you want to advertise in.
Don't know if you qualify? That's part of the setup. We'll figure it out before we launch.
This isn't instant. Google controls approval, and verification can take several weeks. We handle the process, but we can't make Google move faster.
WHAT IT COSTS
Two moments: get in, then run it.
A one-time project to get you approved and launched — then a simple, spend-based fee once the leads start coming in.
ONE-TIME SETUP$1,500
We get you through Google's front door.
Local Services Ads require more than creating an ad and entering a credit card. We check your eligibility, create and configure the account, help you through Google's verification process, set up your services and service areas, establish tracking and prepare everything needed to launch. Google makes the approval decision. We handle the legwork.
AFTER YOU'RE APPROVED
Google gets the ad money. Aaron gets 15%.
You choose your monthly Local Services Ads budget, starting at $2,000/month. We manage the campaign for 15% of your actual ad spend — budget management, service targeting, lead review, tracking, optimization and reporting.
$2,000 minimum starting budget$20,000
You Pay Google$2,000
Your minimum starting ad budget — actual spend can vary with demand.
You Pay Aaron$300
15% of ad spend — to manage, review leads, track and optimize.
First month$3,800

- One-time setup+$1,500
Then every month$2,300/mo
- Ad budget$2,000
- Management (15%)$300

$2,000/month is a minimum starting budget, not a fixed spend. Google delivers based on real demand — some months come in under budget — and the 15% fee always applies to what's actually spent.
EVERYTHING THAT'S HANDLED
The whole managed program.
Thirteen moving parts, grouped into the four stages of a Local Services Ads campaign.
Getting Approved
Through Google's front door — eligibility, setup and verification.
Eligibility Check
We first confirm that Google offers Local Services Ads for your trade and market.
Google Setup
We build and configure your Local Services Ads account and walk you through Google's onboarding process.
Verification Help
We help you submit the business, licensing, insurance and other information Google requires.
Profile Setup
We complete and optimize the information customers see when considering your business.
Getting Configured
Only the jobs you want, only where you work, on a budget you control.
Service Setup
We configure the specific services you want leads for instead of blindly accepting everything.
Service Area Targeting
We configure the geographic areas where you actually want customers.
Budget Setup
We establish your budget around your market, services and lead goals.
Managing What Happens
Watching every lead — and catching the garbage before it costs you.
Lead Management
We monitor incoming leads and help classify what happened to them.
Lead Quality Review
We review lead quality and available lead feedback/credit opportunities rather than assuming every lead is good. Google automatically reassesses charged leads and may issue credits when its systems determine they're low quality.
Performance Optimization
We continually review services, targeting, budget and campaign performance.
Measuring Results
Judged by calls, leads and booked jobs — not impressions.
Call & Lead Tracking
We track the calls and leads generated instead of bragging about impressions.
Booked Job Tracking
When the data is available, we connect leads to booked work so we can judge performance by business results.
Monthly Reporting
You see spend, leads, cost per lead, booked opportunities and what we're changing.

You pay extra only for leads — priced by your market, so every dollar goes to what actually rings the phone.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS
Good questions. Honest answers.
What are Google Local Services Ads?+
They're Google's call-focused local ads that appear above regular search results for eligible service trades, often with a Google Guaranteed badge. Aaron handles eligibility, verification, setup and ongoing lead management. $1,500 setup, 15% management, $2,000/month minimum ad budget.
What if Google decides my business isn't eligible?+
Google makes the final call on eligibility, so before any ad money is spent we confirm whether Local Services Ads are available for your trade and market and whether you can meet Google's verification requirements — the goal is to find that out up front, not after launch. If we move forward and Google still rejects your business during verification, the $1,500 setup fee is non-refundable — it pays for the eligibility work, account build and document prep we do regardless of Google's decision. That's exactly why we check hard before you commit: we'd rather tell you no ourselves than take a setup fee for a launch Google won't approve.
How long does approval take?+
Google's typical process averages 3–4 weeks after documents are submitted, but the exact timeline depends on Google, not us. We handle everything on our end quickly — the waiting period is Google's verification process, and we can't speed that part up.
Will Google actually spend my full $2,000 budget every month?+
Not necessarily exactly $2,000 — that's your minimum starting budget, and actual weekly spend can vary based on demand while Google applies a monthly maximum. Some months may come in under budget depending on how much qualified demand is available in your area.
What happens if I get a bad lead?+
We review lead quality rather than assuming every lead is good. Google automatically reassesses charged leads and can issue credits when its own systems determine a lead was low quality — we monitor for this rather than letting it slide.
