The Challenge

⚔️

Hyper-Competitive Market

Towing is one of the most expensive Google Ads verticals with CPCs ranging from $6–$7 per click.

💸

Limited Budget

Working with only $55/day requires surgical precision in keyword targeting and bid management.

📊

Budget-Limited Impression Share

Only 52% impression share — primarily lost due to budget constraints, not ad relevance.

The Strategy

01

Focused Ad Group Structure

Only two highly-targeted ad groups to maximize budget efficiency:

  • Towing Broad: 40% conversion rate, $16.81 per call (top performer)
  • Towing Near Me: $30 per call, capturing high-intent local searches
02

Call-Only Landing Page

Custom-built landing page optimized strictly to drive phone calls — no distractions, no forms, just one goal: get the phone ringing.

03

High-Intent Keyword Targeting

Focus on bottom-of-funnel keywords with strong commercial intent:

  • "towing near me"
  • "tow truck near me"
  • Location-specific terms (e.g., "North Hollywood towing")
04

Continuous Testing & Optimization

Using Google Ads experiments to test Max Conversions bidding strategy without risking current performance. Never switch campaign settings instantly.
