What Are Google Ads, and Why Should I Care?

Let’s say someone in your neighborhood searches for

emergency plumber custom birthday cakes pet grooming near me

Do they find you, or your competitor?

Google Ads puts your business at the top of search results when people are actively looking for what you offer. Not someday. Not after months of waiting. Right now.

That’s Google Ads in action.You choose the search terms you want to appear for. You set the budget. You choose the location. You only pay when someone clicks on your ad. That’s what makes Google Ads so powerful and efficient for small businesses.

But getting clicks doesn’t guarantee results. If your ad is poorly written, if it targets the wrong people, or if it sends them to the wrong page, you’ll burn through your budget fast with nothing to show for it.

THAT’S WHY SMALL BUSINESSES TURN TO SEARCH BERG.

We build full, focused campaigns with strategy, copy, and targeting built for your specific audience. So when people search, they don’t just find your business,they choose it.

Are you ready to finally allow your business to speak Google’s language?

PPC Management that Drives Results

Increase Conversions and Return on Ad Spend (ROAS)

Effective PPC management is all about driving sales and conversions. As long as sales are booming and the ROAS is justifiable, the service pays for itself.

At the campaign planning stage, our experts carefully target high intent keywords and keep tweaking strategy till results are achieved.

We also keep tracking CPC-leaching keywords, timings and landing pages to optimize ROAS.

Keep Cost-Per-Click and Total Costs Down

Achieving conversions is certainly the first thing on our PPC experts’ plate. However, we understand that there are costs and budgets to consider.

We treat our client’s money like it’s our own. Our PPC marketers through careful monitoring and execution make sure that the average CPC remains manageable.

We get results without going over the ad budget, in fact, we over deliver by reducing costs.

Types of Google Ads for Small Businesses

Different Ads, Different Goals

We Help You Pick What Actually Works

Google Ads isn’t just “run some ads and hope for the best.” It’s a platform packed with options, and the type of campaign you choose plays a big role in whether your phone rings, your store fills, or your cart gets abandoned… again.

At Search Berg, we don’t throw every ad type at your business. We choose smartly. Strategically. Based on what your goals are, how your customers behave, and what’ll actually move the needle for you.

Here’s a breakdown of the core ad types and how we decide which ones belong in your marketing plan.

Search Campaigns

This is the go-to format: simple text ads that show up when someone Googles a relevant search term.

  • Best For: Small businesses offering services, consultations, repairs, appointments, or anything you want people to find on purpose.
  • Why We Love It: The intent is high. They’re already searching; we just make sure they find you, not your competitor.

Display Campaigns

These are the visual banners you see across websites, apps, and Gmail. You’ve seen them, so have your customers.

  • Best For: Brand awareness, retargeting past visitors, and staying top of mind without being annoying.
  • Why We Use It: If they clicked once and walked away, we’ll tap them on the shoulder later... gently, not aggressively.

Local Services Ads (LSAs)

These appear at the very top of the page (above regular ads) and come with a Google Guarantee badge.

  • Best For: Verified service providers like electricians, HVAC techs, plumbers, tutors, and cleaners.
  • Why It’s Gold: You’re paying per lead, not per click. Also? Users trust that badge, and that trust converts

Call-Only Campaigns

No landing pages, no forms, just a clickable phone number built for mobile users in a hurry.

  • Best For: Businesses that need calls, not clicks. Think urgent care, emergency repairs, or high-touch services.
  • Why We Like It: One tap. One call. One new customer. No middle steps to lose them.

Shopping Campaigns

These show your product (image, price, link) right inside Google’s search results.

  • Best For: eCommerce stores, retail shops, or any business with products and inventory.
  • Why It Matters: It lets buyers compare before clicking. So if they do click? They’re ready to buy.

YouTube Video Campaigns

Video ads that play before, during, or after YouTube content. Skippable or not, they’re in front of the right eyeballs.

  • Best For: Brands with strong visuals, great storytelling, or educational content. Also works for promotions and product demos.
  • Why We Deploy It: YouTube is a search engine in disguise, and a customer watching is a customer primed to engage.

Remarketing Campaigns

These follow users who’ve interacted with your website but didn’t convert.

  • Best For: Longer sales cycles, abandoned carts, or service businesses that require multiple visits to decide.
  • Why We Swear By It: It’s not stalking; it’s reminding. And reminders close more sales than first impressions ever do.

You’ve Got Better Things to Do Than Figure Out Google Ads

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is Google Ads worth it for small businesses with a limited budget?

Absolutely. When managed properly, Google Ads for small businesses can be one of the most cost-effective ways to generate leads and sales. Unlike traditional advertising, you only pay when someone actually clicks on your ad, and with the right targeting, even a modest budget can drive real results. The key is proper setup and ongoing optimization, which is why so many companies choose to hire a Google Ads specialist for small business success.

What if my Google Ads didn’t work in the past?

We hear this a lot. Most failed campaigns come down to poor setup, weak targeting, or lack of ongoing management. Google Ads works, but only when it’s treated like a strategy, not a rest-on-your-laurels tool. We review what went wrong, rebuild what’s needed, and show you how good advertising feels when it’s done right.

How much should a small business spend on Google Ads per month?

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer, but most small businesses start with a monthly ad spend between $500 and $2,000. The right number depends on your industry, location, competition, and goals. The good news? You stay in control of your budget, and we adjust the strategy to make the most of every dollar. That’s part of why businesses come to us for affordable Google Ads for small business campaigns.

How fast will I see results with Google Ads?

Fast, but let’s be realistic. You can start getting clicks within days of launching, but meaningful leads often come once your campaign has been optimized through real-time data. Most clients see noticeable traction in the first 2–3 weeks and stronger ROI as we fine-tune performance month over month.

I’ve never used Google Ads before. Can you help me get started?

Yes, we offer a complete Google Ads setup service for small business owners who are brand new to the platform. From account creation and billing setup to conversion tracking and dashboard organization, we handle everything for you so you can skip the tutorials and focus on running your business. It's all part of our fully managed Google Ads services for small businesses.

Can you track results and show me what’s working?

Yes, and we make it simple! We set up full conversion tracking so you can see exactly which ads, keywords, and landing pages are generating results. You’ll receive clear, easy-to-understand reports each month (no jargon), plus ongoing recommendations to improve performance over time.

Can I pause my ads if I get too busy?

Yes, and that’s one of the big advantages of Google Ads. If you’re fully booked or want to slow down lead flow, we can pause your campaigns instantly; no penalties, no wasted spend. You’re in control, and we help you adjust as your business ebbs and flows.

Do I need a fancy website to run Google Ads for my small business?

Nope. You just need a website (or landing page) that loads quickly, works on mobile, and clearly tells visitors what to do: call, book, buy, etc. If your site isn’t there yet, we’ll either work with what you’ve got or help you build something conversion-ready.

Why not just boost posts on Facebook or Instagram instead?

Because boosting posts is like tossing darts with your eyes closed. You may hit something, but chances are you won’t. Google Ads reaches people who are already searching for what you sell, right now. It's active demand vs. passive scrolling, and that difference matters when you're working with a tight budget.

Can I run Google Ads just in my local area?

Yes, and it’s one of the smartest ways to use your budget. With geographic targeting, we can show your ads only to people in your city, neighborhood, or even a few-mile radius. If your customers are local, your ads should be too, and we make sure they are.

What if I don’t have time to check reports or manage anything?

Then you’re our kind of client. We manage every part of your campaign and send you easy-to-understand updates. No spreadsheets, no jargon, just the numbers that matter. You get full transparency without the homework.

Do I have to commit to a long-term contract?

Not at all. We work month-to-month because we believe in earning your business, not locking it in. If we’re doing our job right, and we will, you’ll want to stick around.

What if my industry is super competitive, can Google Ads still work?

Yes, but it requires strategy. We don’t just throw money at the most expensive keywords. We find smart angles, niche search terms, and high-converting strategies that let you compete without overspending. Our Google Ads experts study your industry to a tee and sharpen their tools accordingly to achieve sweet success.

Can I run ads even if my business is brand new?

Definitely. In fact, Google Ads is one of the best tools for businesses just starting out because it brings in potential customers immediately. You don’t need to wait months for SEO or build a huge social following. You just need a campaign that’s built to convert from day one.

Can Google Ads bring in actual phone calls or store visits, not just web traffic?

Yes. With proper call extensions, location targeting, and mobile-optimized ads, we can drive real-world actions (like phone calls, bookings, and foot traffic), not just clicks to a website. If your business depends on customer contact, we’ll set up campaigns that prioritize it.

Can I scale my ads later if things go well?

Yes. With proper call extensions, location targeting, and mobile-optimized ads, we can drive real-world actions (like phone calls, bookings, and foot traffic), not just clicks to a website. If your business depends on customer contact, we’ll set up campaigns that prioritize it.

What if I have questions or need help mid-campaign?

You’ll never be left in the dark. Every client has direct access to a dedicated campaign manager. Whether you want a quick answer, a performance breakdown, or a strategic pivot, we’re here, not buried in a ticketing system.

I’m ready. What’s the first step?

Just reach out. Whether you want a quick chat, a quote, or a full walkthrough, we’ll meet you where you are.
