Google Local Services Ads
Know what a Local Services Ads program is asking the business to manage.
Local Services Ads can be useful for eligible service businesses, but the program requires accurate profile information, verification steps, lead review, budgets, and timely follow-up. We help make those parts visible and manageable.
Questions worth asking
Get clear on the work before hiring anyone.
Is our business eligible for Local Services Ads?

Straight answers
Questions business owners ask before getting started.
Are Local Services Ads the same as Google Ads?
No. They are a separate Google product with their own eligibility, verification, and lead-charging model.
Can every charge be disputed?
No. Google decides disputes under its own policies. We can help organize the information needed to review eligible issues.
Does a badge guarantee placement?
No. Verification is not a promise of a position or a certain number of leads.
