Your Customers Start on Google. Are You There?

Most small businesses in southeast Iowa have some kind of Google presence — but most of it is incomplete, outdated, or invisible. A half-finished Business Profile, an ad campaign running on the wrong keywords, or a website that never shows up in search results all cost you real customers every week.

We manage the full picture: the ad campaigns that drive immediate traffic, the Business Profile that builds local trust, the Maps listing that gets people through your door, and the analytics tools that tell us exactly what's working so we can keep improving.

Everything connects. When your Google Ads, Business Profile, and website are working together — with consistent information and clear calls to action — you become the obvious choice for customers in your area.

We don't just set things up and hand them back. We monitor, optimize, and report — so your Google presence keeps earning for you month after month.

Intent-Driven Reach

Google puts you in front of people who are already looking for exactly what you offer — not just browsing.

Local Authority

A well-managed Google presence signals to both Google and customers that you're a legitimate, active, trusted business.

Measurable Results

Unlike traditional advertising, every click, call, and conversion from your Google presence is trackable and reportable.

Compounding Value

Google Ads bring immediate traffic. SEO and GBP build long-term organic visibility. Together, they multiply each other's impact.

One Point of Contact

You don't need a separate agency for ads, another for GBP, and another for analytics. We handle the whole ecosystem.

The Tools That Power Your Google Presence

Great results don't come from guessing. We use Google's own suite of measurement and intelligence tools to understand your audience, track your performance, and make data-driven decisions about where to focus.

Google Analytics 4

Tracks every visit to your website — where people came from, what pages they viewed, how long they stayed, and whether they took action. We use this to measure what's working and cut what isn't.

Google Search Console

Shows you exactly which search terms are bringing people to your site, how often your pages appear in Google results, and whether Google can properly read and index your content.

Google Tag Manager

The behind-the-scenes system that keeps all your tracking clean and organized. We use GTM to manage your analytics, ad conversion tracking, and remarketing tags without cluttering your website code.

Google Ads Insights

The campaign-level reporting inside Google Ads shows us impression share, quality scores, search term reports, and conversion data — all of which we use to sharpen your campaigns every month.

Google Business Insights

Your Business Profile generates its own performance data — how many people searched for you, how many called, how many asked for directions. We review this monthly and use it to guide your GBP strategy.

Google Keyword Planner

Used to find the exact search terms your potential customers use, understand monthly search volumes, and identify opportunities your competitors may be missing in your local market.

Google PageSpeed Insights

Site speed is a Google ranking factor. We use PageSpeed Insights to audit your website's load performance and make sure it meets Google's Core Web Vitals standards across mobile and desktop.

Google Merchant Center

For businesses that sell products, Merchant Center connects your inventory to Google Shopping ads and free product listings. We can set this up and manage your product feed as part of your Google Ads strategy.

You own every account. All Google Analytics, Search Console, Ads, and Business Profile accounts are created under your ownership. If you ever move on, you take everything with you — no lock-in, no data held hostage. We believe your data belongs to you.

How Your Google Presence Works Together

Each piece of your Google presence reinforces the others. Here's how the full ecosystem serves your customer at every stage of their decision.

01

They Search

A potential customer types a search into Google — “plumber near me,” “Iowa City bakery,” “best HVAC Washington Iowa.” This is where your Google Ads and organic rankings compete for their attention. Both serve this moment differently: Ads put you at the very top immediately; organic SEO builds lasting visibility over time.

02

They Compare

Before clicking, they scan the Map Pack. Your Google Business Profile is your storefront here — your rating, your photos, your hours, your reviews. A complete, well-managed GBP with strong reviews dramatically increases the chance they choose you over a competitor before they've even seen your website.

03

They Decide

They land on your website. Now your site has to convert them — clear messaging, fast load speed, a visible phone number, and a reason to call or book. Analytics tells us where people drop off; Search Console tells us how they found you; Ads data tells us which keywords drove the best leads. We use all of it to keep improving.

Google Services — Answered Plainly

Google Business Profile is a free listing that helps you appear in local organic and map results — it's earned visibility that builds over time. Google Ads are paid placements that put you at the top of search results immediately, but stop the moment you stop paying. They serve different purposes and work best together: your GBP builds long-term local trust while Ads drive immediate traffic for targeted searches.
Your ad spend budget is entirely up to you — most small businesses in our area start with $300–$700 per month. That money goes directly to Google; it's not part of our management fee. Our fee covers campaign setup, keyword research, ad copywriting, bid management, and monthly reporting. We focus on high-intent local searches so your budget goes to people who are actively looking for what you offer, not just browsing.
We can manage as many or as few as you need. Some clients start with just Google Business Profile because that's their most immediate need. Others come in wanting the full picture — Ads, GBP, and Analytics set up from day one. There's no requirement to bundle everything, but when the pieces work together they're more effective than any one of them alone.
Most businesses see meaningful improvement in their GBP visibility within 4–8 weeks of a full optimization — especially if the profile was incomplete or inactive before. Ranking in the Map Pack for competitive keywords takes longer and depends on your review count, citation consistency, and how strong your competitors' profiles are. We set realistic expectations upfront and show you the numbers every month.
Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) is your free listing that appears in Google Search and Google Maps when someone searches for your business or services nearby. A properly optimized profile helps you show up in the Map Pack — the top three local results that get the most clicks and calls. We set it up, optimize every section, and manage it ongoing so it keeps working for you.
Yes. Without analytics you're flying blind. Google Analytics shows you how many people visit your site, where they came from, which pages they read, and whether they took action — called, filled out a form, clicked your email. Combined with Google Search Console, you can see exactly which search terms bring people to your site and where you have room to grow. We set both up and make sure they're actually tracking the right things.
