The Problem

You’re probably wasting a third of your ad budget right now

Most Google Ads accounts we audit have the same problems: broad match keywords eating budget, no negative keyword list, conversion tracking that’s broken or missing, and landing pages that don’t match ad intent. The result is clicks that cost real money and leads that never materialize.

We fix that. Our Google Ads management Chicago team has managed over $300,000 in monthly ad spend across local service businesses, medical practices, and professional services. We’ve been Google Ads-certified since 2012 and we manage every account ourselves — no offshore teams, no junior contractors learning on your dime. We also handle your Chicago SEO services and website under the same roof, which means your landing pages, ads, and organic rankings work together instead of against each other.

What We Do

What’s included in Google Ads management Chicago

Campaign Strategy

Campaign strategy & build

Before we write a single ad, we start with keyword research, competitor analysis, and intent mapping. Every Google Ads management Chicago campaign is built around what your best customers actually search — not broad terms that attract everyone and convert no one.

  • Competitor campaign analysis
  • Keyword intent mapping
  • Campaign architecture planning
  • Budget allocation by service line
  • 90-day strategy document
  • Goal and KPI setting before launch

Search Campaigns

Tightly structured search campaigns

Tightly structured ad groups, exact and phrase match keywords, ad copy that matches search intent, and landing pages aligned to each campaign. We don’t dump all keywords into one ad group and call it done — sloppy structure is the number one cause of wasted Google Ads spend.

  • Exact and phrase match keyword targeting
  • Single keyword ad groups where appropriate
  • Ad copy written to match search intent
  • A/B testing on headlines and descriptions
  • Ad extension setup (callouts, sitelinks, calls)
  • Quality Score optimization

Conversion Tracking

Know your true cost per lead — not just cost per click

We wire call tracking, form submissions, and appointment bookings directly to your campaign data using Google Tag Manager — so you know the true cost of every lead, not just the cost of every click. If you can’t see your CPL, you’re flying blind. This is the first thing we set up before a dollar is spent.

  • Google Tag Manager setup & configuration
  • Call tracking wired to campaign data
  • Form submission tracking
  • Appointment booking attribution
  • GA4 goal configuration
  • Monthly CPL reporting by campaign

Negative Keywords

Cut wasted spend from day one

One of the fastest ways to reduce wasted Google Ads spend is an aggressive negative keyword list. We build it from day one and update it weekly based on actual search term reports — blocking irrelevant searches before they burn your budget on clicks that will never convert.

  • Day-one negative keyword list
  • Weekly search term report review
  • Competitor brand exclusions
  • Geographic targeting refinement
  • Device bid adjustments
  • Audience exclusions

Bid Management

Bids calibrated to your market and margin

Manual and smart bidding strategies calibrated to your specific market and margin. We adjust bids based on time of day, device, location, and conversion data — not set-and-forget auto bidding that burns budget on the wrong clicks at the wrong times.

  • Time-of-day bid scheduling
  • Device bid adjustments
  • Location bid modifiers
  • Conversion-based bid strategy
  • ROAS and CPL target calibration
  • Weekly bid review and adjustment

Landing Pages

Landing pages that match ad intent

Sending paid traffic to your homepage is one of the most costly mistakes in Google Ads management. As your Chicago Google Ads management team, we build or optimize dedicated landing pages matched to each campaign — so the message a prospect sees in the ad is exactly what they land on.

  • Dedicated landing page per campaign
  • Message match between ad and page
  • Mobile-first layout
  • Single focused CTA per page
  • Trust signals and social proof
  • Page speed optimization before launch

Reporting

Plain-English monthly reporting

Plain-English monthly reports showing impressions, clicks, conversions, cost per lead, and campaign trends. You’ll always know exactly what you’re paying for every lead — and whether it’s working. No vanity metrics, no hiding behind impressions and click-through rates.

  • Monthly performance report
  • True CPL broken down by campaign
  • Search term reports included
  • Conversion trend analysis
  • Next-month optimization plan
  • Direct team access for questions anytime

Remarketing

Re-engage visitors who didn’t convert

Most visitors don’t convert on the first visit. Remarketing campaigns keep your brand in front of warm prospects across Google’s display network and YouTube at a fraction of the cost of search clicks — targeting people who already visited your site and didn’t take action.

  • Google Display Network remarketing
  • YouTube remarketing campaigns
  • Audience segmentation by page visited
  • Frequency capping to avoid ad fatigue
  • Conversion window optimization
  • Monthly performance reporting
