Local Services Ads: from paperwork to your first booked job
Local Services Ads sit above ordinary search results and charge for leads rather than clicks. The catch is the verification maze. We handle it, then keep the profile earning.
- Your accounts stay yours Every ad account, analytics property and report sits in your name from day one.
- No contracts Month to month, no contracts, cancel any time.
- Honest media math We report spend and fees on separate lines.
A different kind of ad
- Your listing carries a trust badge once Google finishes its checks.
- You’re charged when a qualifying customer contacts you through the ad. [PLACEHOLDER: confirm current Google billing terms before publishing]
- Placement is driven by proximity, reviews, responsiveness and budget, so operations matter as much as bidding.

Timing depends on how fast verification clears. [PLACEHOLDER: typical range once RankYield has its own data]
The weekly routine that protects margin
- Dispute and credit review for leads that weren’t a fit.
- Reply-speed and booking-rate checks, since both affect ranking.
- Review requests that follow completed jobs.
- Budget moves up in busy weeks and back down in slow ones.
Run LSA beside paid search, not instead of it
Ads and map listings capture different moments. We compare cost per booked job across both and shift budget accordingly.
