Search ads catch the buyer who's ready right now
There's a difference between someone scrolling Facebook and someone typing "emergency plumber Henderson" into Google. The second person has a problem today and a credit card ready. That's what Google Ads buys you: high-intent, ready-to-hire homeowners in the Las Vegas Valley, captured at the bottom of the funnel where the money is. For trades with urgent demand — HVAC in July, a slab leak, a roof leak during monsoon season — search is usually the first dollar a contractor should spend.
The catch is that Google Ads is also where contractors quietly burn cash. Broad keywords pull in tire-kickers, the wrong neighborhoods, and people looking for DIY tips instead of a pro. We run it the opposite way: tight, local, and built to bring you the call that turns into a job.
What we actually do with your Google Ads
Local-intent campaigns
We target the searches that mean "I'm ready to hire," geofenced to Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Summerlin, Spring Valley, Enterprise, and Paradise — not the whole state, not the wrong valley.
Negative-keyword pruning
We strip out the searches that waste money — "salary," "how to," "free," "DIY," and the parts/jobs queries — so your budget chases buyers, not browsers.
Ad copy that earns the click
We write the headlines and extensions around what Vegas homeowners actually care about: fast response, licensed crews, after-hours availability, and real local proof.
Call & lead tracking
Every click is tied to a call or form so you can see which searches produce jobs. We optimize toward booked work, not vanity clicks.
Bid & budget management
We manage bids around Vegas seasonality — lean into the 110°F AC rush, pull back when demand cools — so you're not overpaying in slow weeks.
Answered by an AI receptionist
The click is only half the job. Our AI receptionist answers the call it generates, 24/7, and books the appointment so you don't pay for clicks that go to voicemail.
Why most contractors waste money on Google Ads
The number-one way Las Vegas contractors lose money on Google isn't a bad keyword — it's a missed call. You pay good money for a click during peak season, the homeowner calls, you're on a roof or under a sink, it goes to voicemail, and they dial the next result. You paid for that lead and handed it to a competitor. That's why we never sell Google Ads as a standalone. The ad creates the call; the AI receptionist and missed-call text-back make sure the call becomes a booked job. Spending on clicks without a system to answer them is how good contractors conclude "ads don't work" — when really, the phone was the problem.
Built for the Las Vegas Valley
Vegas search demand isn't flat. AC and pool searches explode when it hits 110°F, roofing spikes during monsoon storms, and HOA-heavy areas like Summerlin and Aliante search differently than the older housing stock Downtown and on the Eastside. We tune your keywords, budget, and seasonality to how the Valley actually buys, so your slow months get a plan instead of silence.

One flat price for the whole machine
Google Ads management is part of our $750/month flat fee — the same fee that covers your AI receptionist, CRM, follow-up, and reviews. Your ad spend is separate and goes directly to Google (most contractors start at $1,000–$2,500/month). No setup fees, no long-term contract, cancel anytime. See the full breakdown on our pricing page, or look at what the system did for a real client on our case study.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Google Ads management cost for a Las Vegas contractor?

No. Your Google ad budget is billed by Google directly to your own account. You always own the account and the data. We manage the campaigns; you pay Google for the clicks.
What happens when someone clicks my ad and calls?
The call is answered by our AI phone receptionist in a natural voice 24/7, and if a call ever slips through, missed-call text-back sends a reply in about 60 seconds. The click you paid for becomes a booked appointment instead of a voicemail.
How fast can you launch my Google Ads?
Most contractors are fully launched within 7 days of their onboarding call — campaign build, tracking, and the receptionist that answers the calls those ads generate.
