Why invest in PPC advertising

Paid advertising puts you in front of new customers immediately on Google, social media, and AI platforms. It’s the fastest way to expand your visibility and reach buyers while your website builds traction in organic search and AI engines.

PPC services: what’s included

  • Paid search strategy that works with SEO and generative engine optimization (GEO) to expand your reach across channels
  • Advertising campaigns built to drive leads and pipeline your business can act on
  • Consistent messaging from ad to landing page, so more of your traffic converts
  • Paid and organic tracked together, so you always see the full picture of what’s driving results
  • Full visibility into where every dollar goes, campaign by campaign. No hidden fees on your ad spend

Audit & strategy

A full account audit and competitive analysis inform a campaign strategy built for the right ad platform for your buyers.

Keyword & audience targeting

Intent-first keywords and audience buildout focused on acquiring leads from buyers most likely to convert.

Campaign build & testing

Ad copy, landing pages, and ongoing A/B testing to keep performance improving month over month.

Reporting & optimization

Ad campaign reporting tied to your KPIs, with continuous optimization built into every month.

At SMA, PPC advertising isn’t a separate engine running alongside your organic strategy. It’s the lever inside OrganicIQ that turns on when speed matters. Earned visibility compounds over time; paid visibility is the reach you rent while that asset builds, so you’re never stuck waiting for organic momentum to catch up to your growth targets.

Because paid runs inside the same system as SEO, GEO, and content, we track performance across every channel on one dashboard; we judge a campaign by the leads and pipeline it actually produces, not in isolation. If it’s not working, we turn it off and reallocate, and we tell you why. If it is, we scale it alongside the organic strategy it’s supporting, not instead of it.

PPC isn’t a standalone service — it’s one part of our proprietary OrganicIQ system.

OrganicIQ ensures you’re visible wherever buyers search.

Is PPC right for my business?

If you’re looking to connect directly with your target audience, it’s time to consider PPC. We do our homework to create the right PPC strategy for your business. We’ll review and determine the advertising channels that will give your brand the most exposure to your audience and the best return on your ad spend.

What do your PPC services include?

Our PPC services cover every stage of campaign performance, from reaching the right audience to turning clicks into customers. We target high-intent keywords, use audience segmentation and geo-targeting, and develop compelling ad copy and offers that speak to buyer needs. We also write copy for conversion-focused landing pages with clear calls to action and aligned messaging. Through ongoing data analysis and optimization of targeting and bidding, we help increase qualified traffic, generate leads, and maximize the return on your advertising spend. PPC is offered as a growth accelerator as part of our OrganicIQ system, rather than a standalone service.

Do you mark up ad spend?

No. Ad spend is paid to the platforms directly and never marked up.

Do you manage Local Services Ads?

Yes, we offer Google Local Services Ads (LSAs) management. However, eligibility depends on your business type, location, and Google’s specific requirements. Some businesses must also complete verification steps, such as background checks, license verification, or insurance verification. We’ll help determine whether your business qualifies and manage your LSA campaigns to help you connect with local customers actively searching for your services.

Do you run Bing Ads?

Yes, we run Bing Ads when we determine your buyers use Bing and it is the best platform to attract leads to your business.

How do I get started with your PPC services?

PPC advertising is available as a channel to reach new customers, alongside SEO and GEO, in our OrganicIQ system.

Getting started with SMA Marketing is simple. Simply contact us to schedule a free strategy session. We’ll discuss your needs and explore search marketing opportunities and the best ad platforms to meet your business goals. Then, we’ll share a proposal that illustrates how our OrganicIQ system can expand your visibility and increase leads. We’ll work closely with you to ensure our SEO, GEO, and PPC strategy aligns with your business objectives and drives results. Regular optimization, performance monitoring, and reporting ensure we continuously improve your ad performance.

How will you measure the success of my PPC campaigns?

We track key metrics such as click-through rate (CTR), conversion rate, cost-per-click (CPC), and return on ad spend (ROAS) to assess the performance of your PPC campaigns. We can also set up call tracking metrics to track and measure which phone calls are generated directly from your ads, giving you valuable insights into the effectiveness of your PPC campaigns. Our detailed reports help you see exactly how your investment is paying off.

What do you do if an ad campaign isn’t working?

We shut it off and move the budget to what converts, and we show you the data behind that decision.

How long does it take to see results from PPC advertising?

At SMA Marketing, our clients typically see initial results from PPC advertising within the first 30 to 60 days. However, results will vary.

What does PPC cost?

PPC management is offered as an accelerator to an OrganicIQ growth plan. Costs range from $500 to $1,000 per month. Ad spend is separate and goes directly to the platforms.
