    6 answers before your free audit

    How does PPC management in Calgary target qualified leads?

    We manage Google Ads, match landing pages to your services, exclude irrelevant searches and use qualified lead data to guide bids. Your free audit identifies gaps in your account.

    What does PPC management cost?

    The audit is free. Your management scope and ad budget depend on your goals and market. We discuss both before you decide.

    How quickly will I see results?

    Timing depends on your market and account. Our team ships fixes and pages in hours or days using tested scripts and AI tools, but lead growth takes testing. We don't promise a specific lead count or ranking.

    How do I see what you're doing with my budget?

    The Glass Box Portal is available 24/7. It shows your rankings, leads, spend and a log of changes, so you don't have to wait for an agency to explain what's happening.

    Will you manage ads for my direct competitor?

    We work with one major client per niche per region and don't take on direct competitors in that market.

    What happened in the Calgary cabinet maker case?

    Over 12 months, qualified PPC leads rose from 10 to 63 a month at unchanged monthly spend. Design consultations increased from 6 to 38 a month. The work included service-specific pages, search exclusions, project screening and CRM-qualified bidding.
