## Most trades pay for marketing that never rings the phone

We see the same problems in almost every account we audit. Each one is fixable, usually in the first month.

- **Paying for junk clicks**: Ads showing for DIY, jobs and supplier searches that never turn into customers.
- **Invisible on Maps**: Competitors with fewer years and worse work sitting above you in the map pack.
- **A slow, leaky website**: Visitors leave before the page loads, or cannot find the phone number when it does.
- **No idea what works**: Monthly reports full of impressions, and no answer to "how many jobs did that bring?"

## How we are different

Banish Media compared with a typical marketing agency

|  | What you get | Typical agency | Banish Media |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Who they work with | Anyone who signs | Home-service businesses only |  |
| Contract | 6 to 12 months | Month to month |  |
| Who owns the ad account | Often the agency | Always you |  |
| Reporting | Clicks and impressions | Calls, booked jobs, cost per job |  |
| Your competitors | Often clients too | One business per trade per area |  |
| Ad spend | Sometimes marked up | Paid by you to Google, never marked up |  |

## How we work

From free audit to first calls in about two weeks.

1. **Free audit** (2 business days): We review your ads, Google Business Profile, website and the three businesses that outrank you, and send back the fixes that matter most.
2. **Plan and quote** (20-minute call): A one-page plan: which searches to win first, the budget it needs, what we do every month and a fixed fee.
3. **Launch** (About 2 weeks): Call and form tracking first, then campaigns, profile fixes and landing pages. Nothing goes live without your OK.
4. **Report and improve** (Every month): A monthly report in plain language: calls, booked jobs, cost per lead and what we change next.

## Work with the person doing the work

I started Banish Media in Edmonton to do marketing the way I would want it done for my own business: measured in phone calls and booked jobs, not impressions and vanity reports.

We focus on home-service businesses because the problems repeat. Roofers, HVAC companies, plumbers and inspectors all need to be found at the exact moment someone needs them, and all of them waste money when ads and websites are not built for that moment.

When you work with us, you talk to the person doing the work.

Banish Angural, Founder

- **You own everything**: Ad accounts, profile, website and data stay in your name.
- **Measured in booked jobs**: We track calls and forms to the search that caused them.
- **One trade per area**: We never work for your direct competitor in your area.
- **Month to month**: No lock-in. Results are the reason clients stay.

## Questions owners ask us

### How much does an Edmonton digital marketing agency cost?

It depends on how many services and towns you want to win and how competitive your trade is. After the free audit we send a fixed monthly quote in writing, with no setup surprises. Ad spend is paid directly to Google and never marked up.

### Do you lock clients into long contracts?

No. We work month to month with 30 days notice. Website projects have a fixed scope and price.

### Who owns the ad accounts, website and data?

You do. Your Google Ads account, Google Business Profile, analytics, website and content are in your name. We work inside them with access you can remove at any time.

### Why do you only work with home-service businesses?

Because focus makes us better and faster. We already know the searches, seasons, costs and Google rules for trades like roofing, HVAC and plumbing, so you are not paying for us to learn your industry.

### Will you work with my competitors?

Not in your area. We take one business per trade per service area, so we never bid against ourselves for the same customer.

### How quickly will I see results?

Google Ads and Local Services Ads can bring calls within days of going live. Google Business Profile fixes show within weeks. SEO usually takes three to six months to build real momentum.

### What is in the free audit?

A review of your Google Ads (if you run them), Google Business Profile, website and top three local competitors, with the three changes most likely to bring in more jobs. It is yours to keep whether or not you hire us.

### What are negative keywords in Google Ads?

Words or phrases that stop your ads showing on searches containing them, so you don’t pay for clicks that will never become customers.

### Is Performance Max good for local service businesses?

Sometimes, once tracking is solid and search campaigns are proven. Started too early, it often finds cheap, low-quality leads.

### How do home inspectors get more clients?

Rank in Google Maps for each town, show prices and a sample report, make booking easy, collect buyer reviews, and run ads in busy months.

### How often should I add negative keywords?

Weekly for active accounts. Review the search terms report and block anything irrelevant.

### Can home inspectors get clients without realtor referrals?

Yes. Many buyers search for an inspector themselves, especially after reading online advice to choose their own. Ranking locally, showing prices and making booking easy captures those buyers.

### Are Local Services Ads available for home inspectors in Edmonton?

Availability by category changes over time. We check the current list for Edmonton before recommending them, and use search ads instead if the category is not open.

### Should a home inspector publish prices online?

Usually yes. Buyers compare costs before calling, and clear starting prices or an estimate tool build trust and filter out poor fits.

### How much should a home inspector spend on Google Ads?

Often $15 to $40 a day is enough to test. Search volume for inspections is modest, so a focused budget with good tracking works better than a big one.
