Questions before your first campaign
Short answers. Ask anything else on the audit form.
Ads and budgets
How fast do ads produce calls?
Search ads can ring the phone within days of going live. Judge the cost per booked customer after about a month, once there's enough data to mean something.
What does the management cost?
PPC Management is $2,000 a month and Instagram Ads Management is $1,000 a month. Your ad budget is separate and goes straight from your card to Google or Meta.
Can I run ads in just part of Houston?
Yes, and we usually recommend it. Campaigns can be set to the neighborhoods and suburbs you actually serve, so you're not paying for clicks from across the county.
SEO and timing
How long does SEO take somewhere as big as Houston?
Narrow searches, like a service plus a neighborhood, can move in a few months. The broad city-wide phrases take longer, because plenty of businesses already want them.
What do the SEO plans cost?
SEO comes in three tiers: $1,000 a month, $2,000 to $3,000, or $4,000 for the full program. None of them needs ad spend.
Why bother with SEO if ads work?
Ads stop the moment the budget does. Organic rankings keep sending calls, which pulls your blended cost per customer down over time.
Working together
Will you also work for my competitor?
No. Each trade in Houston gets a single client from us.
Where do you work?
All of Houston, plus Sugar Land to the southwest, Pearland to the south, Pasadena and Baytown to the east, Katy to the west and Conroe to the north.
Where do your numbers come from?
Search counts and click prices from Google Ads data through DataForSEO, population from the US Census, and job values from cost guides adjusted for the region. Each figure carries the month it was pulled.
