This page is published by Tanner Preserve Web Co. (tannerpreserve.co), which sells a competing service. That disclosure applies to the whole page. Every number about Google Local Services Ads below is dated and sourced; where Google Local Services Ads does not publish a price, that is stated instead of guessed at.

What the number doesn't include
- No fixed or published per-lead price; Google's own page directs you to a budget calculator instead of a rate card
- No website; a Local Services Ads profile is not a site
- No follow-up system if the lead doesn't answer or convert immediately
Where Google Local Services Ads is the better fit
- You want top-of-page placement specifically for high-intent local searches
- You already have a strong close rate and just need more raw lead volume
Not for a contractor's only presence online, or a business that isn't ready for google's screening process. That part is what I sell instead.
