days:
It’s Quick: Once you’ve decided on all the variables (such as the keywords you want to target, for
example), we can go from sign off to implementation within days! Ads will be shown, and data will be tracked right away, giving us all
the information we need to make changes as necessary, or build you a better campaign on the following cycle. PPC ads are the
single fastest way to get leads!
It’s Effective: There’s no other way besides paid search advertising to get
your business listed on the first page of Google immediately! If you want a fool-proof way of getting in front of the eyes of search
engine users, without them having to click through to the fourth page of Google, then PPC services from Smart WSI
Marketing are for you!
It’s Targeted: You can target people searching for almost anything under the sun, whether
it’s second-hand red canoes or car insurance. You can make sure your ads appear on the top of Google when these phrases get
typed into the search bar. As long as your campaign is well crafted with a sufficient budget, you can also choose the geographic
location of the people you want to target. So if you’re a local business in Edmonton for example, instead of paying for your
advertisement to be displayed to people in Europe and Asia, you can have them displayed to people from Edmonton & surrounding
areas.
Flexible Budgets: You can decide exactly how much you want to spend on any given day or over
the course of the month. There aren’t any nasty marketing expense surprises at the end of the month. A skilled agency, Like Smart WSI
Marketing, for example, will spend time to research your geotarget and related keywords to determine a sufficient starting budget. After the
campaign has been running uninterrupted for 90 days, your budget can be increased or decreased to suit your cashflows and results. Make sure
to discuss any budget changes you want to make with your digital marketing expert to ensure the adjustment will not tank your campaign
results.
You Have Transparent Results: We are able to easily track leads that come from your PPC ads!
Calls and emails that come result from your paid search campaign as embedded with tracking code. Calls can also be recorded for quality
assurance as well as to maximize campaign results. Smart WSI Marketing provides personalized progress reports every month for all of our PPC
clients. Of course immediate leads are tracked and included in reporting, but there are immeasurable leads from PPC campaigns too. If
someone clicks away and comes back to your site in a few days, weeks, or months and then contacts you, that lead is not trackable, but it is
still valuable!
It’s Low Risk:PPC campaigns allow you to see real data and real leads with a small investment, and very
little commitment. You can stop your campaign at anytime, but our seasoned experience has shown us that it takes a minimum of 90 days
running time with no interruption to see if a campaign is truly effective. That being said, a 3-month time commitment is still very little
time for how big of a reward an effective PPC campaign can have!
Straight to the Top!
There is really no faster, more effective way to get to the top of the search results than with a good paid search campaign. Another great
benefit of PPC campaigns is that while they can work amazingly well on their own, they are also valuable team players, working well
alongside other digital marketing strategies like SEO plans and geofencing campaigns. To learn more about PPC campaigns and how they can fit
into your over all digital marketing strategy, call us at Smart WSI Marketing today!
