Google Ads, New Zealand

Google Ads management, with the budget on your own card.

We set up and run Google Ads for your business, from NZ$390 a month for the management. The ad budget is yours. You pay it straight to Google, on your own card, in an account in your own name, and it never goes through us.

Or call or text us on 021 217 1760. Send a text.

Where the money goes

Two bills, and your ad money never comes through us.

The ad budget goes from your card to Google and nowhere else. We are paid separately, for the work, so you can always see what the ads themselves cost.

Google's bill

The ad budget

You set it, and Google charges your card after the ads have run. You never load money in, and Google gives you its own tax invoice.

Our bill

The management

A separate bill from us, for the work. It never has your ad budget in it, so you always see exactly what Google charged.

What we never do

  • Hold your ad money, or pay Google for you
  • Add anything on top of what Google charges
  • Open the account in our name instead of yours
  • Type in your card or your password. You do that yourself, on Google’s own page

From NZ$390 a month for the management. The ad budget is yours, and so is the account.

Plans

Google, Meta, or Google with your profile and reviews.

Google Ads reach people already searching for what you do. Meta ads reach people on Facebook and Instagram. Marketing care puts Google Ads, your profile and your reviews on one bill. Each has a 3 month minimum from go-live, then 30 days' notice, and the ad budget is always yours.

What we do

Set up properly, then watched every week.

All of it happens in your own Google Ads account, so you can log in and see any part of it whenever you like.

Before anything runs

  • The campaign, in your account

    We build it inside your own Google Ads account, not one of ours, so you can log in and see every part of it.

  • Keywords, and the searches we block

    We pick what a customer ready to book would type, and block the searches that only cost money: job hunters, DIY, and people after something you do not do.

  • Ads written from your real work

    Every line is something you actually do and can back up, and the page each ad sends people to says the same thing.

  • Call and form tracking

    Taps on your phone number and enquiry forms sent are counted, so we can tell which clicks turned into enquiries.

  • Your areas and your hours

    The ads show to people in the areas you work, at the times you want the phone to ring.

Every week, and every month

  • Checked every week

    The spend, the ads, and the searches that set them off. The ones that waste money get blocked.

  • A short report every month

    What Google charged, what the money brought in, and what we changed and why. One page, in plain English.

How it starts

Nothing runs until you have seen it and said yes.

Five steps, and the account is yours from the first one.

  1. You open the account

    A Google Ads account in your own name, with your own card, on Google’s own page. We send you the steps.

  2. You let us in

    We send a request to manage the account and you accept it. You stay the owner.

  3. We build it, switched off

    The campaign, keywords, blocked searches, ads, tracking, areas and hours, all set up and paused.

  4. You see it and say yes

    You look over the ads, keywords, areas, hours and budget. Nothing runs until you say yes.

  5. It runs, and we watch it

    Weekly checks and a short report each month. You can pause the ads any time.

What we will not promise. A number of enquiries, or the top spot on the page. Nobody can know either before the ads have run, and Google’s rules for anyone running ads for another business forbid unrealistic promises. What you get instead is every dollar Google charged, what it brought in, and what we changed.

Google’s own guide. Google publishes a guide for any business that hires someone to run its ads, with what to expect and what to watch out for. Read it before you choose anyone, us included. Google’s advertiser guide to working with third parties

Google Ads management is from NZ$390 a month. That covers setting up the campaign in your account, the weekly checks and the monthly report. The ad budget is separate. You decide it, and you pay it straight to Google on your own card.
Yes. Meta ads are from NZ$390 a month for the management: the Meta Pixel on your website, a Leads campaign in an ad account in your own name, and new ads each month made from your own job photos. The ad budget is paid by you straight to Meta, on your own card, the same way it is with Google.
Yes. Marketing care puts Google Ads management, Google profile care, review requests, a monthly report and Essentials care for your website on one bill, from NZ$990 a month. The ad budget still goes on your own card, straight to Google.
No. It goes from your card to Google, in a Google Ads account in your own name. We never hold it, never pay Google for you and never add anything to what Google charges. Google sends you its own bill and tax invoice, and ours is a separate one, for the work.
That is your call, and we help you make it. We start from what a job is worth to you and how many enquiries usually turn into one, then set a daily budget in your account. Google treats it as an average, so a busy day can cost up to twice as much, but over a month it never charges more than the daily budget works out to.
Only once you have seen them and said yes. We build the campaign with everything switched off, then you look over the ads, the keywords, the areas, the hours and the budget. Nothing runs, and nothing is spent on ads, until you say yes.
Yes, any time. Tell us and we pause them, or pause them yourself in your own account. A paused campaign spends nothing, and its settings and history are kept for when you switch it back on.
Yes, 3 months from go-live, because the first month is for learning. After that, you can stop the management with 30 days' notice by email. There is no set-up fee. Pausing the ads stops the ad spend straight away, whenever you like.
You do. It is opened in your name, with your own card, and we are added to it as the people who manage it. The campaigns, the numbers and the history are yours, and if we ever part ways, all of it stays with you.
No, and be careful of anyone who does. Nobody can know either before the ads have run, and Google’s rules for anyone running ads for another business forbid unrealistic promises. What we do promise is that you see every dollar Google charged, what it brought in, and what we changed.
Call and form tracking goes in before anything runs, so each enquiry from an ad is counted. In New Zealand Google can count taps on your phone number but not whether the call was answered, so the report says taps, not calls. Each month we also ask which enquiries became quotes and jobs, because that is the number that matters most, and only you know it.
The first month is for learning, not judging. Clicks come in the first days, but each enquiry costs more at the start and less as the wasted searches are blocked. Give it about three months, then we look together at what a job cost you in ads and decide whether to carry on.
Each ad sends people to a page on your site, and that page has to say the same thing the ad does, load quickly on a phone and make it easy to call or send an enquiry. We look at it before anything runs and tell you if it needs work first. If you do not have a page that does the job, we can build one.
One next step

Tell us what you do and where you work.

And which jobs you want more of. We reply in writing with whether Google Ads makes sense for your business and how we would set it up. Nothing is set up, and nothing is spent, until you say yes.
