What we do

We deliver near-instant returns on your Google Ads NZ investment

Google Ads is one of the fastest ways to get your phone ringing — ads can be live within days. Talk to us and we'll show you how a Google Ads budget turns into booked jobs, not just clicks.

When someone in your town types what you do into Google, an ad can put your name at the very top of the page — above the competitor who gets that call today. That's what Google Ads buys you: the top spot for the exact jobs you want, in the exact areas you cover. And on a search ad you pay only when someone clicks through to your site.

Most accounts we take over are quietly wasting a third of the budget on clicks that were never going to buy. The first job is finding that money and stopping it. The second is spending what's left on the searches that actually end in work, and showing you the maths every month so you can see it for yourself.

We set your Google Ads to show only for the jobs you want and only in the areas you cover — no paying for clicks from three towns over. Then we check the account every week, switch off the searches that waste money, and put more budget behind the ads that bring work in. Your only job is answering the phone.

Built for Kiwi business owners who measure ads by the jobs they bring in, not by how many people saw them.

Our Key Services

As a Google Ads NZ agency we know how to reach your target audiences

There are four ways Google Ads can bring you work, and most businesses only need one or two of them. Here's what each does in plain English — and if you're not sure which fits your trade, just ask.

  • Reach

    Front & centre

    Google Ads NZ Management

    Your name at the top of Google within days for the searches that bring jobs, while your slower SEO work builds behind it.

  • Recall

    2nd chance

    Google Remarketing

    Show your ad again to the people who visited your site and left — the ones who nearly rang you and got distracted.

  • Volume

    Sites they read

    Google Display & Shopping

    Put your ad on the websites and apps your customers already read, or your products — photo and price — at the top of Google with Shopping.

How we do it

How we get you clients with Google Ads NZ

Ads can start showing the day they're switched on, so enquiries can start the same week. Here's how we run Google Ads so the work coming in is worth more than the clicks you're paying for.

    Second chances with Google Ads NZ remarketing

    Google Remarketing is like giving internet users a gentle tap on the shoulder to remind them to revisit your website. For example, they might continue their abandoned purchase, sign up to your newsletter, or fire off an enquiry.

    • Give potential customers a second chance to buy
    • Keep your name in front of them until they're ready
    • Get your name known around your area
    • Convert almost-customers into paying ones

    Visibility with the Google Ads NZ Display Network

    The Display Network puts your ad on the news sites, blogs and apps your customers use every day — so your name stays in front of them long before they ever go searching for you.

    • Shown only to the kinds of customers you want
    • Your ad seen across lots of different websites
    • Quietly keeps your business in people's minds
    • Designed and executed by our specialists

    Target buyers with Google Ads NZ Shopping

    Google Shopping puts your products — photo, price and all — right at the top of the page when someone searches to buy. If you sell from a shop or an online store, that's the spot you want.

    • Budget closely monitored within limits
    • Buyers can see what they're getting before they click
    • Your products shown to people searching to buy them
    • More buyers see your products, spend capped

The first 90 days

What happens after the project kick-off

What happens on day 1, 30, 60 and 90. We say it up front, we stick to it, and that means every month we show you what you spent against what came back.

  1. Day 1

    Audit & kick-off

    Free Google Ads consult — then we agree the searches to bid on and what each enquiry should cost.

  2. Day 30

    Campaigns live

    Your ads live on Google. Every call and form counted properly. First numbers arriving.

  3. Day 60

    Google Ads NZ optimisation for better performance

    The searches that never convert are switched off, the ads Google rates highest are cheaper to run, so every dollar in is returning more than it did in month one.

  4. Day 90

    Scaling the best Google Ads NZ campaigns

    Profitable campaigns scaled. From here on, monthly optimisation — three months to start, then month by month.

What we work with

Access to the market-leading tools. So that you get real results

Every campaign stays in your account. Each month you can inspect the search terms, changes, spend, calls, forms and cost per qualified enquiry yourself.

  • Google Ads

    Campaign settings, search terms, excluded searches and change history remain visible in your own Google Ads account.

  • GA4 + Tag Manager

    Calls and forms are tested from click to confirmation, with the successful test recorded before reporting begins.

  • Google Merchant Center

    Product approvals, feed errors, item-level spend and tracked purchases can be checked inside Merchant Center.

  • Looker Studio

    Spend, conversions and cost per qualified enquiry shown together, with the underlying account one tap away.

  • CallRail / Hyros

    Call sources and outcomes labelled where the business has the consent and process needed to use call tracking.

  • Auction Insights

    Impression share and auction overlap used to show when budget, reach or stronger competitors explain a result.

Common questions

The questions about Google Ads NZ we get when we start a project

What Kiwi business owners ask most often before they release Ads budget.

  • It depends on three things: your industry, your region, and what you're trying to get out of it. For example, what a customer is worth in one trade is nothing like another, and what it costs to reach them in Auckland is nothing like Invercargill. We won't quote you a bracket that turns out to be wrong — you'll get a real figure on the first call, once we know what you're working towards.

  • No. That means all budgets run directly through your Google Ads account. We earn a fixed monthly fee — whether your budget is small or large. Incentive: results, not volume.

  • With a clean setup, often inside the first fortnight — ads start the day they're switched on. Getting the cost per enquiry down to something steady usually takes 60 to 90 days.

  • We meet weekly and adjust. If after 60 days it's clear there isn't enough demand in your market to make the numbers work, we'll tell you straight and stop — rather than keep spending your budget to keep a client.

  • We do — words and pictures both, with two versions tested to see which pulls better. You approve everything before it runs.

  • Yes, when it's set up with care: pointed only at your services, the wrong searches blocked, and only real calls and forms counted as a result. Left on its defaults, it spends your budget on clicks that go nowhere.

  • It runs month by month. That means you can pause any time, and all accounts and data are yours.
