Website, SEO & Paid Ads for Small Businesses
Turn your ad budget into booked clients.
Running ads without a strategy is just burning money. I set up and manage your Google or Meta campaigns alongside your website and local SEO, so every channel is working together instead of against each other. Daily budget monitoring means you're never overspending on what isn't converting. Monthly reports tell you exactly what your ad dollars produced. No agency markups, no account managers you've never spoken to, just one person managing your full online presence.
- —Everything in Custom Website & Local SEO, custom site, updates, security, Google Business Profile, local SEO
- —Ad campaign setup and management on Meta (Facebook/Instagram) or Google
- —Daily budget monitoring so you're never overspending on underperforming ads
- —Ad creative refreshes to prevent audience fatigue
- —Monthly ad performance report covering spend, reach, leads, and cost per result
At a $400–$600 monthly ad budget, a single booked job per week from those campaigns covers both the ad spend and the management fee for most service businesses. Unlike SEO, paid traffic starts generating leads on day one.

Who It's For
Small local service businesses: HVAC and heating, plumbing and electrical, cleaning and maid services, landscaping and lawn care, auto repair and detailing, general contractors and remodelers, pest control, and similar home and trade services. I'm based in Dayton, Ohio and work with businesses across the Miami Valley, including Kettering, Beavercreek, Centerville, Huber Heights, and Trotwood, as well as remote clients anywhere in the United States.

Common Questions
What does 'ad management' mean? Do I need it?
Ad management means I set up and run paid ads on Google or Facebook/Instagram on your behalf. You decide on a monthly budget and I make sure that money is being spent on the right audience. I watch it daily, adjust what isn't performing, and send a monthly report. If you want to actively bring in new leads rather than waiting for organic search to do it, this is how you do that.
What's included in the monthly fee? Are there hidden costs?
The monthly fee covers exactly what's listed in your plan, nothing more. If you ask for work outside that scope, I'll quote it before touching it and only add it to your invoice with your approval. Ad spend is separate: you pay the platforms directly and I manage the campaigns. No surprises.
How long until I see results?
It depends on what you're measuring. A website can go live within the first 30 days. SEO takes longer: noticeable movement usually shows up around the 60 to 90 day mark, with real traction closer to the 3 to 6 month range. Paid ads can generate leads within the first week once campaigns go live. I'll set specific expectations based on your situation on the discovery call.
