There are a lot of agencies in Edmonton, and most sound the same on a sales call. These questions cut through it.

  1. Who owns the ad account, website and data? It should be you, always.
  2. What will you report on? Look for calls, forms and booked jobs, not just clicks and impressions.
  3. Who actually runs my account? Meet them before you sign.
  4. What exactly happens each month? You should get a list of work done, not a vague retainer.
  5. How long is the contract? Month to month, or short terms, are a sign of confidence.
  6. Do you work with my competitors? Ideally not in your area.
  7. Do you mark up ad spend? You should pay Google directly.
  8. Can you show work for a business like mine? Ask what they did and what changed.
  9. Do you guarantee rankings? The right answer is no. Nobody controls Google.
  10. What happens if I leave? Everything you paid for should stay with you.

We built Banish Media around those answers: home-service businesses only, one per trade per area, month to month, and you own everything. Start with a free audit and judge us on it.
