Electricians and Google Guaranteed
GOOGLE GUARANTEE FOR ELECTRICIANS
electrician google guarantee
Electricians, we’re spoken with you and listened to your grievances and we know that you DO NOT want shared leads from sites like HomeAdvisor, Thumbtack, Angie’s List, etc. You want leads that are exclusive to your business. You want at least 5-10+ service calls per day coming into your electrical business so you can stay busy and keep your crew busy year-round.
Well, if this is you then you might want to get Google Guaranteed for your services. To become Google Guaranteed and run Google Local Service Ads, Google must first checkout your business through their qualification process. If you get approved, you can start getting as many as 10 exclusive service calls per day depending on the demand for electrical services in your regional market. This is very different from Google Ads, where you pay per click. With Local Service Ads (Google Guarantee) you pay per lead. Want to find out more? Fill out the questionnaire below and we’ll reach out to you.

WHAT ARE LOCAL SERVICES ADS FOR CONTRACTORS, AND DO THEY WORK?
Local Services ads are pay per lead ads that appear at the very top of the search engine results page and receive 13.8% of local clicks on Google.
Unlike traditional PPC search ads, you don’t target keywords, you target services.

How bidding works for Local Services Ads
A bid is the most you’d pay for a lead. When similar local businesses bid on the same lead, those bids determine how much the lead is worth. You only pay when you get a lead.
Bidding on leads can move your ad higher up results, which can bring more customers to your business. But quality service still matters, including responsiveness and reviews.
Bid modes
- Maximize leads (Recommended): Let Google set your bid and get the most leads for your budget. It is recommended to set a minimum budget of 10 leads per week for optimal results.
- Set max per lead: Manually set your own bid, which is the most you’d pay for a lead.
Understand the screening and qualification process
To participate in some Google programs, a business must pass Google’s screening and qualification process for their business category. This screening process is free for businesses that want to participate. The process varies by category but may include background checks, insurance, and license checks.
