Home Services — HVAC

Multi-Location HVAC Company

Southeast United States12 months
Local SEOGoogle AdsMeta Ads

The Challenge

A regional HVAC company with 4 locations was generating most of its leads through word-of-mouth and a single Google Ads campaign that hadn't been restructured in years. Cost per lead was high, seasonal peaks were unpredictable, and organic visibility was nearly nonexistent outside their primary city.

Our Approach

We rebuilt the Google Ads account from scratch with separate campaigns for each location and service type. Simultaneously, we launched a Local SEO program targeting each service area with optimized Google Business Profiles and location-specific landing pages. Meta Ads were added in month three to build brand awareness ahead of peak season.

Results

Lead volume: Increased 4.2x over 12 months across all locations
Cost per lead: Reduced by 58% through campaign restructuring
Local pack visibility: Top 3 rankings achieved in 3 of 4 service areas
Seasonal revenue: Peak season bookings up significantly year-over-year
Legal Services — Personal Injury

Personal Injury Law Firm

Major Metro Market9 months
SEOGoogle Ads

The Challenge

A personal injury firm was spending heavily on Google Ads with a high cost per case inquiry and minimal organic presence. The firm's website had no location-specific content and was not ranking for any meaningful practice area keywords.

Our Approach

We developed a comprehensive SEO strategy targeting high-intent practice area and location keyword combinations. The Google Ads account was restructured around specific case types with tightly controlled match types and negative keyword lists. Landing pages were rebuilt to improve Quality Score and conversion rate.

Results

Organic case inquiries: Grew from near zero to a consistent monthly volume within 9 months
Google Ads cost per inquiry: Reduced by 44% through account restructuring and landing page improvements
Keyword rankings: First page rankings achieved for 28 high-intent practice area terms
Total inquiry volume: Combined organic and paid inquiries more than doubled year-over-year

Multiple Locations10 months
SEOLocal SEOGoogle AdsMeta Ads

A med spa group with three locations was relying almost entirely on Meta Ads for new patient acquisition. Organic search was untapped, Google Ads had never been tested, and the Meta campaigns were generating inconsistent results with no clear attribution.

New patient appointments: Increased 3.1x across all three locations
Meta Ads cost per booking: Reduced by 52% through audience restructuring
Google Ads: New channel generating consistent bookings within 60 days of launch
Organic visibility: Treatment-specific pages ranking on page one for priority keywords
Home Services — Restoration

Water & Fire Restoration Company

Regional Market8 months
Local SEOGoogle Ads

A restoration company was dependent on insurance referrals and had no meaningful digital presence. When homeowners searched for emergency water or fire damage help, the company was invisible. A competitor was dominating both the local pack and paid results.

Emergency call volume: Direct search calls increased 5x within 8 months
Local pack: Top 3 position achieved for primary emergency service keywords
Google Ads: Consistent emergency job leads at a cost per lead well below industry average
Digital dependency: Reduced reliance on insurance referrals with a new direct-to-consumer channel
Healthcare — Dental

Multi-Location Dental Group

Suburban Markets11 months
SEOLocal SEOGoogle Ads

New patient inquiries: Increased across all five locations with the lowest-performing location seeing the largest gain
High-value service bookings: Implant and cosmetic inquiries increased significantly through dedicated campaigns
Local pack: All five locations achieved top 5 local pack positions for primary keywords
Cost per new patient: Reduced by 39% through campaign restructuring and landing page optimization
Home Services — Moving

Regional Moving Company

Mid-Size Metro12 months
SEOLocal SEOGoogle Ads

A regional moving company was paying high rates to lead aggregators and third-party platforms for most of its business. Margins were being compressed by platform fees, and the company had no direct digital presence to fall back on.

Direct leads: Grew from near zero to representing the majority of new bookings within 12 months
Platform dependency: Reduced significantly as direct search volume increased
Cost per booking: Direct channel cost per booking substantially lower than aggregator rates
Organic rankings: First page rankings for primary moving service keywords in target market
