The Challenge

Operating in a competitive local service market, the phone repair business faced the challenge of consistently attracting customers in immediate need of repairs. Consumers often search for repair solutions when their phone is already broken, requiring prompt and trustworthy service. The primary objective was to establish a strong online presence, ensure visibility for high-intent searches, and generate a steady flow of qualified leads (calls or walk-ins) at a cost-effective rate to fill their service bays. They needed a strategic digital advertising approach to connect with customers precisely when their need for repair was most urgent.

The Solution: Google Ads Strategy

To address the client\’s challenges and drive immediate service inquiries, Mahin implemented a highly targeted and efficient Google Ads strategy:

  • Campaign Types Implemented:
    • Google Search Ads: Formed the core strategy, directly targeting users actively searching for specific phone repair services in their local area (e.g., \”iPhone screen repair [city name],\” \”Samsung battery replacement near me,\” \”phone repair shop [zip code]\”).
    • Google My Business (GMB) / Local Service Ads: Crucial for local service providers, these ads ensured the repair shop appeared prominently for \”near me\” searches and on Google Maps, driving direct phone calls and navigation requests to their physical location.

Key Strategic Elements & Tactics:

  • Hyper-Local & High-Intent Keyword Targeting: Conducted precise keyword research focusing on emergency and high-intent, localized search terms relevant to common phone issues. This ensured ads were shown to individuals in their immediate service area actively looking for immediate repair solutions.
  • Urgent & Trust-Building Ad Copy: Ad copy was crafted to convey urgency, reliability, and expertise. Headlines emphasized speed (e.g., \”While-You-Wait Repair,\” \”Quick Screen Fix\”), convenience (e.g., \”Walk-ins Welcome,\” \”Same-Day Service\”), and trust (e.g., \”Expert Technicians,\” \”Guaranteed Repairs\”). Calls-to-action were clear and immediate (e.g., \”Call Now,\” \”Get an Instant Quote,\” \”Visit Us Today\”).
  • Strategic Use of Ad Extensions: Utilized various ad extensions to provide rich information and facilitate direct interaction. This included call extensions for immediate phone calls, location extensions to highlight their physical address on maps, and sitelinks to specific service pages (e.g., \”Screen Repair,\” \”Battery Replacement,\” \”Water Damage\”).
  • Conversion-Focused Bidding: Implemented bidding strategies optimized to drive conversions (leads via calls or form submissions) at the most efficient cost. This allowed for maximum lead generation within the allocated budget, critical for a service business relying on walk-ins and appointments.
  • Optimized Landing Page Experience: Ensured that ad clicks led to clear, mobile-friendly landing pages on the client\’s website, making it easy for users to quickly find their specific repair needs, pricing, and contact information.
  • Continuous Performance Monitoring & Optimization: Maintained rigorous daily and weekly monitoring of campaign performance, analyzing leads, cost, and CPC. Adjustments were continuously made to keywords, ad copy, and targeting to maximize lead volume and maintain cost efficiency.
