Why Most Local Businesses Waste 80% of Their Ad Budget
I've audited over 50 local business ad accounts in the last year. The same 3 mistakes show up every single time.
1. Targeting everyone within 30 miles
Your plumbing service doesn't need to reach uni students. But that's exactly what happens when you use default radius targeting. We narrow it down to homeowners in specific postcodes with household income filters. Instantly cuts waste by 40%+.
2. Sending traffic to your homepage
Your homepage is for people who already know you. Cold traffic needs a dedicated landing page with one clear action: book a call, request a quote, or claim an offer. No navigation bar. No distractions.
3. No follow-up system
Someone fills out your form. Then what? If you're not calling within 5 minutes and texting within 30 seconds, you're losing 60-70% of your leads to competitors who are.
Fix these three things and you'll get more from your existing budget than most agencies deliver with double the spend.
