Keep the campaign inside your territory
Orange County borders Los Angeles County to the north, Riverside County to the east and San Diego County to the southeast. Set the campaign’s reach by the jobs your crews can cover, including cities across a county line if you serve them. We check geographic settings and the locations recorded on incoming leads.
Crew capacity belongs in the budget discussion too. If your schedule fills with project work, spending more on that campaign can create calls you cannot book. If a service has spare capacity, we can test more budget there. We use your booking history to plan changes through the year.

Different jobs deserve different ads
The roofing trade includes 252 contractors in Orange County. A roofer should be able to tell repair leads from replacement estimates, because those jobs may support different acquisition costs. We separate their messages and landing pages when the services warrant separate campaigns.
Orange County records 943 electrical contractors. If your electrical business offers both troubleshooting and installations, start with the work you want to grow. Clear exclusions, a specific ad and an explanation of the service help protect the budget from clicks that cannot become your next job.

Run the account with feedback
We need to know what customers asked for and what your team booked before recommending a larger budget.
We review your account, margins, service territory and available capacity. The plan names the work to promote and a budget you approve.
The search message and page describe the same service. We check that a mobile visitor can call or request an estimate without hunting for the next step.
Call tracking and form conversions connect requests to campaigns. We agree how your team will identify qualified leads and booked jobs in the reports.
We optimize daily during the first 30 days, then weekly. Search terms, bids and budgets change in response to costs, lead quality and your capacity.

We compare likely click costs with your job value, margins and ability to turn leads into bookings. A focused campaign can be a better starting point than advertising every service across the county. You approve the test budget, and call tracking shows what the test produces before we recommend expanding it.
Ad-platform spending is a separate budget from Lithium’s management fee. Your ad spend, the channels we run and any landing page work determine the fee. Your proposal spells out both costs so you can assess total spending against the work the campaigns generate.
The service offer, coverage, landing page and lead tracking need to be ready before we launch. Your team also needs a way to answer and record the calls. Initial results typically arrive within the first week, but lead quality and booked work determine the next account changes.
Reporting can show both when your team supplies booking outcomes. Tracking identifies the campaign behind a call or form; your staff records if it became work. We review that feedback alongside spending, so repeated calls, price shoppers and jobs you cannot take do not all look like equal successes.
They can be part of the plan when the audience and offer suit them. Lithium manages Microsoft Ads and Meta campaigns on Facebook and Instagram as well as Google Ads. We explain what another channel would test and how its leads would be tracked before asking you to fund it.
