The plan

What we would do in Worksop

It is rarely one big thing. It is several small ones, and they compound.

Cover the few trades that carry this marketA handful of trades carry most of what gets searched in Worksop, with plumbing at the front of them on about 390 searches a month. That is a short enough list to cover properly, which is not true of every place, and it means the whole job here is finite.

An ordinary auction, so execution decidesNeither the price of a click in Worksop nor the number of people bidding for it is unusual. That puts the whole result on execution: the negatives, the landing page, and bidding only on the trades you actually want.

Set your area across the boundary, not up to itWorksop sits where more than one council meets. North Anston, under nine kilometres away, is Rotherham, and Creswell, under nine kilometres away, is Bolsover. Very little else nearby puts that many authorities within reach of one business, which means the area you can realistically serve is wider than your postcode suggests. We set your service area to match where you actually go, not where the boundary happens to fall.

Cut the searches that waste the budgetMost wasted spend is not bad bidding, it is paying for searches you never wanted. Negatives before bids: jobs you do not take, areas you do not serve, people researching rather than buying. In Worksop the searches worth keeping are a plumber, an electrician, a locksmith.

Send the click to a page about what they searchedA click for one trade landing on a homepage that lists eight is the most common reason ads cost more than they should. One page per campaign, matching the words in the ad.

Set the budget against what a job is worthWork back from the job, not from a monthly figure. At the prices above, a campaign only makes sense if you know what one enquiry is worth to you and how many of them you convert.

The market

What Worksop is worth

The searches here are real and steady, and somebody is picking them up today. That is the market you are competing in.

Value is not the same as volume. A landscaping search here costs an advertiser under a pound. A locksmith search costs around £17. Nobody pays several times more for a visitor unless the job at the end is worth several times more, so the size of a market and the value of it are two different questions.

Barely 30 searches a month here are businesses seeking this out. Most of the firms you compete with are not thinking about it at all, which makes the top of the results cheaper to reach than it will be later.

If you travel, the nearest markets are Carlton in Lindrick at under six kilometres, North Anston at under nine kilometres, Creswell at under nine kilometres. Each is its own search: being found in Worksop does not put you in front of anybody there, which is why they have their own pages rather than a line on this one.

It is not one trade either, which tells you the habit here is local rather than people defaulting to the nearest big town for everything.

Timing

When the work comes in around Worksop

Search for roofing in Worksop peaks in February and bottoms out in July, with three times as much volume at the top of the year as at the bottom. Every trade has its own shape here, and that one is the sharpest.

Ads are the one part of this you can switch on in February and still benefit from, which is their advantage. The swing is an argument against a flat monthly budget: the same money does more in the month people are actually looking.

Nothing to pay us until the ads have paid for themselves, and your click budget goes to Google either way, which we are straight about from the start.

It is rolling, and you can stop whenever you want.
