Finding the Right Fit for Your Google Ads Budget Find Your Fit

Our Google Ads plans are built around your monthly ad spend.

We price Google Ads management based on monthly ad spend, so you can see where your budget sits before we start talking. Smaller campaigns use fixed monthly fees. Once your ad spend is over $5,500/month, we move to a simple 20% of monthly ad spend + GST model.

Your ad spend is paid directly to Google. Our fee covers the management side: setup, optimisation, reporting, and helping you understand what is actually happening inside the account. Standard setup is included. If your account needs complex tracking, ecommerce feeds, Merchant Center clean-up, landing page work, or a more involved setup, we’ll scope that separately before anything starts.

If you’re not sure whether your budget is ready for Google Ads, talk to us. We’ll be upfront if the numbers do not make sense yet.

Google Ads for Oamaru Businesses That Need Better Enquiries

Oamaru has a varied local economy, with demand coming from residents, visitors, rural communities, trades, hospitality, retail, professional services, and businesses serving the wider Waitaki district. Customers often compare options online before they call, book, visit, or request a quote, especially when they need a service quickly or are planning a trip.

Google Ads helps Oamaru businesses appear at the point people are actively searching, whether that is for an urgent trade, a local supplier, accommodation, a restaurant, or a professional service. The aim is not just more traffic; it is qualified leads and enquiries from people who are more likely to take action.

Legend manages campaigns with practical structure, sensible budget control, conversion tracking, and clear reporting, so you can see what is generating value. We focus on the search terms, locations, and enquiry paths that matter for businesses competing in and around Oamaru.

Does Google Ads work for local businesses in Oamaru?: Google Ads can work well for Oamaru businesses when campaigns are built around local search intent, such as people searching for a nearby tradesperson, accommodation, professional service, retailer, or urgent help. The aim is to appear when someone is already looking and ready to enquire, rather than paying for broad, low-intent traffic.

How much should an Oamaru business budget for Google Ads?: Your budget depends on your goals, competition, service area, and the value of each enquiry. An Oamaru business targeting a small set of high-value services may need a different budget from one promoting multiple services across North Otago and the wider Waitaki District. We focus on setting a practical test budget, then using the data to refine where spend is best used.

Can Google Ads target Oamaru and the wider Waitaki area?: Yes, Google Ads can be set up to target Oamaru and surrounding areas such as Weston, Kakanui, Maheno, Kurow, Palmerston, and the wider Waitaki region, depending on where you actually want enquiries from. For service businesses, this helps avoid wasted spend from areas you do not cover while still reaching customers who are searching from nearby locations.

How do you improve lead quality and tracking for Google Ads?: Lead quality is managed by choosing the right keywords, writing clear ads, using negative keywords, and sending people to a landing page that matches what they searched for. Tracking can show which searches, ads, calls, forms, and locations are generating enquiries, so the campaign can be adjusted toward better commercial outcomes rather than just more clicks.

Should Oamaru businesses use Google Ads alongside SEO?: Google Ads and SEO support different parts of local visibility for Oamaru businesses. Google Ads can put you in front of people searching now, while SEO helps build longer-term organic visibility for local service and location-based searches. Many businesses use both, with Google Ads providing measurable enquiry data that can also inform SEO priorities.
