Partner with Certified Google Ads Experts

For many businesses, Google Ads can become an essential part of their marketing strategy. While Google offers a range of products to meet different needs, it’s not always the best option for everyone. But for those who benefit from it, it can make a big difference. As a certified Google partner from the beginning, Saltwater Digital stays up to date with the latest trends and best practices to help you get the most out of the platform.

And with an office in Calgary, you can be comfortable knowing you’re working with not just experts, but neighbours.

Drive Targeted Traffic to Your Site

For service-based businesses in Calgary, Google Search Ads can make a big impact. When customers search for your services, being at the top of the search results is crucial to driving business.

Getting there organically can be tough without a solid SEO strategy. With search ads, you can grab those top spots without breaking the bank. Let Saltwater Digital help you stand out and attract the customers who are looking for you.

Engage… and Then Re-Engage

Staying connected to your audience is crucial, regardless of your business type. One of the most effective ways to do this with Google Ads is through Remarketing Ads. These ads target people who have already interacted with your brand, helping you re-engage them in a meaningful way.

Remarketing Ads are cost-effective and can complement your Search Ads strategy, extending your reach and boosting overall campaign performance. In some cases, that includes involving the Meta Display network which in our experience is actually a more effective form of remarketing advertising.

Our Proven Ads Management Process

Market Assessment and Keyword Research

Every Google Ads campaign begins with an initial planning session. During this meeting, we’ll evaluate your target market, considering factors such as location, age, and gender, and clarify your cost-per-acquisition goals.

Then, we’ll conduct keyword research to identify effective search terms and determine competitive bids.

Account Setup & Configuration

We’ll either set up a new Google Ads account or optimize your existing one using best practices. In some cases, we might recommend creating your own account to take advantage of promotions, such as the ad credit up to $1,800 for new advertisers.

We’ll also ensure that Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are properly configured, along with the necessary conversion tracking to monitor your key performance indicators. Depending on your website’s features, this setup can be more detailed.

Our team will create ads and set up extensions like call, structured snippets, sitelinks, images, and callout extensions. If advanced verification is required, we’ll guide you through that process as well. You'll have full access to your Google Ads account. If an agency restricts access, it’s a sign to reconsider.

On-Going Campaign Optimization

We’re committed to adding real value to your campaign. Our team regularly analyzes data, tweaking keywords and ad copy to optimize performance. We continuously test different strategies to ensure you get the best ROI.

Reporting

Expect your first report within 3-4 weeks of your campaign launch, followed by bi-monthly updates. Our reports are straightforward, focused on conversions and ROI, and free from unnecessary statistics.

Frequently Asked Questions

When it comes to Google Ads, your ad budget significantly impacts your results, but you control the cost. Whether you have a small or larger budget, we’ll guide you to make sure your investment generates a good conversion rate. Our team is here to offer personalized guidance throughout the process.

Google operates on a ‘Pay-Per-Click’ (PPC) model, which means you only pay for the clicks your ads receive. We usually suggest a budget that provides enough traffic to help you achieve a good conversion rate.

We generally advise against managing your own Google Ads unless you have the time to fully understand the platform and can move beyond basic Smart Campaigns. However, if you’re willing to invest the effort and have a genuine interest, we encourage you to dive in! We’re always available for a future audit to help assess your performance. If you have a smaller budget under $400/month, check out our Fee-Free Program for a cost-effective option.
Our management fees are based on the time required to effectively manage your account, starting around $350/month, but the exact cost may vary depending on your specific needs.
We track the effectiveness of your ads in various ways, including phone calls and contact form submissions through your website, using Google Tag Manager. In some cases, we may recommend creating dedicated landing pages to improve conversion rates. Our goal is to capture every lead generated by your ads so we can accurately assess the return on investment (ROI).
In some cases, we may recommend custom landing pages to improve conversion rates. These typically cost around $225 and can significantly improve tracking and performance. However, they aren’t always required, especially if your website is already well-optimized.

While we’re not based in Calgary, we have a deep understanding of the local market and its unique characteristics. With our experience working with businesses throughout Alberta, including Calgary, ensures we can help you thrive in this region.
