This local gutter cleaning business in San Jose, CA was spending money on Google Ads but getting barely 1–2 leads a week.
They asked: “Is Google Ads even worth it?”
🔍 What I found:
– No negative keywords — wasting 50% of budget
– Ad copy was vague and didn’t mention gutter services
– Broad match keywords targeting unrelated searches
🛠 What I did:
– Installed call tracking & GTM to measure real results
– Optimized keywords to target only “gutter cleaning near me” and intent terms
– Updated ad copy with urgency + seasonal relevance
– Added local zip targeting with call extensions
🚀 Results:
– 19 qualified calls in 10 days
– CPL dropped by 54%
– Now running ads every month with me
