What is SEM?

SEM (search engine marketing) means paying to appear on Google when people search for what you sell. You choose the searches, write the ads and only pay when someone clicks.

But the click is only the start. A good campaign looks after the whole journey, from the search someone types to the sale at the end.

Why it matters

Google Ads puts you in front of people at the exact moment they’re ready to buy.

01

Results in days, not months

Ads can start bringing in enquiries soon after they go live.

02

You control the spend

Set your budget, choose your areas and adjust any time.

03

Every dollar is measurable

With proper tracking, you can see exactly what each enquiry costs.

Does this sound familiar?

If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

01

Spend goes up, enquiries don’t

You’re paying for clicks from people after DIY tips, jobs or the wrong suburb.

02

Clicks that never call

Ads send people to your homepage, and they leave without getting in touch.

03

You can’t tell what’s working

Calls and forms aren’t tracked properly, so every decision is a guess.

04

Set and forget

Your campaigns were set up years ago and nobody has touched them since.

What’s included

FAQ

Google Ads / SEM, answered.

It depends on your trade and area. We’ll look at search volume and competition, then recommend a starting budget that gives you real data without burning money.

Ads can start bringing in enquiries within days of going live. The first month or two is about learning what works and tightening things up.

Sometimes. It can work well, but it needs good tracking and clear guardrails. We’ll only use it where it makes sense for your goals.

Ads bring in enquiries quickly. SEO builds over time and keeps paying off. Many businesses use ads now while SEO grows, so they rely on ads less later.

We’ll tell you straight away, explain why and change course. If ads aren’t right for your business, we’ll say so.

You do. Your ad account and its history belong to your business.
