Common questions
What is a sensible starting budget?
It depends on your industry and the suburbs you target. Budget is recommended in the free strategy session, based on real Cairns click costs for your services.
Do I need a website first?
You need a page built to convert. If your current site will not do that, a landing page can be built alongside the campaign.
How do I know the ads are working?
Calls and form enquiries are tracked, not just clicks and impressions, and reported to you monthly.
How quickly do ads start producing?
Search campaigns can generate enquiries within days of launch, then improve as data comes in.
Are you a Google Partner?
The Bearded Marketer is not itself a badged Google Partner. Anthony delivers Google Ads work through Localsearch, which holds Google Premier Partner and Meta Business Partner status, so your campaigns run inside those accredited accounts.
