Tracking before spending
Before a dollar is spent we set up tracking for ad calls, website calls, form submissions and bookings, so each keyword is measured by the inquiries it produces and not by clicks or impressions.
When Moncton owners want advertising help they usually type the kind of company they need: “digital marketing agency moncton”, “marketing companies moncton” and “marketing firm moncton” all show up in Google’s suggestions, whereas “google ads moncton” returns nothing at all. The goal behind those searches is plain: more calls from people close by, without paying for clicks that lead nowhere.
The searches worth paying for are the pressing ones. “emergency plumber moncton”, “oil furnace repair moncton” and “emergency dentist moncton weekend” come from people with a problem today, so whoever answers first tends to win the job and the clock matters more than the keyword. Planned purchases run on another schedule: “heat pump installation moncton”, “moncton roofing companies” and “mountain road moncton hotels” are researched over days or weeks, and the hotel searches bunch around event weekends and the summer visitor season. Each kind of search deserves its own campaign, schedule and budget.
Business buyers keep office hours. Greater Moncton is a distribution hub with about 180 transport and logistics firms, so a truck-repair shop or a parts supplier is often found by someone with a phone in hand in the middle of a working day, and “moncton truck repair” is worth bidding on in those hours rather than at midnight. A shop that sells to households may do better in the evening. The schedule follows the customer.
Search demand
Google.ca suggestions, October 2026. “google ads moncton” does not register, so campaigns are planned around the trade searches that do, and the unhelpful ones become exclusions.
New campaigns follow Google’s location targeting options and reach people located in Moncton, Dieppe, Riverview and any nearby areas you truly serve, instead of anyone who happens to be curious about the region. Before launch we add exclusions such as explained, definition, course and how to become, since the suggestion data puts learning searches right next to buying ones. Hotel and event campaigns run apart, with their own budgets and dates.
Paid or earned
Ads can produce calls within days, and they end the day the budget does. Local SEO takes months to build and then keeps paying out. Plenty of businesses in Greater Moncton run ads through a heating season or a launch while their organic pages catch up.
The work
Before a dollar is spent we set up tracking for ad calls, website calls, form submissions and bookings, so each keyword is measured by the inquiries it produces and not by clicks or impressions.
Emergency repairs, planned installations, hospitality and trade supply each get their own campaign, so a hotel-weekend budget never competes with a burst-pipe budget.
Presence-based targeting on Moncton, Dieppe, Riverview and the areas you truly serve, compared against where calls really come from, instead of the wide defaults Google suggests.
The first negative list removes learners, do-it-yourself readers and price-only browsers; after launch the search terms report supplies new exclusions each week.
More spend in furnace and snow season, or on the weekends when the Avenir Centre and the summer events bring visitors, and less in your quiet months, always agreed with you first.
Copy for lawyers, accountants, mortgage and insurance brokers and real estate agents is checked against the Competition Act and the body that regulates them: the Law Society of New Brunswick, CPA New Brunswick, or the Financial and Consumer Services Commission for insurance, mortgage and real estate licensing. Ads for health professionals follow their regulatory college’s rules.
Done carefully
The standards we hold ourselves to on every account, set out in writing.
You own the ad account and pay for clicks on your own card. We run the campaigns without ever standing between you and Google.
Clicks are billed to your card by Google itself. Our management sits inside the Pro plan, $700 a month in Canadian dollars, and we add nothing on top of your ad spend. The account stays open to you at all times, and if we ever part ways the campaigns, history and conversion tracking go with you.

How we work
The work opens with a close look at your listing and website, then settles into a short monthly report that takes a coffee break to read.
First we study your website and listing, then look at the results a searcher gets in downtown, Mapleton, Dieppe and Riverview.
Together we choose the searches worth winning and decide whether each calls for a new page or a profile fix.
Profile fixes, new pages, copy and tidying of directory entries, taking the likeliest quick wins first.
Each month brings a note of the calls, form messages and rankings we recorded, followed by our plan for the next four weeks.
Questions
No single figure fits every trade. A heating company that can take ten calls a day and a studio that can take two need different budgets, so we start from what clicks cost in your category, then shift money toward the searches that bring inquiries. The spend itself is paid to Google, apart from our fee.
Only the Pro plan carries paid search: $700 a month in Canadian dollars. Starter and Growth are limited to organic local work (see the pricing page), and none of the three needs a contract.
Yes. Searches such as “moncton truck repair” and “moncton truck maintenance” come from people buying for work, so we schedule those ads for weekday hours and send the clicks to service or counter pages.
Frequently they do. A snow removal firm, landscaper, heat pump installer or seasonal restaurant can start campaigns a few weeks ahead of demand and pause them once it tapers off.
They are, within limits. Ads may not mislead under the Competition Act, and your own regulator, whether the Law Society of New Brunswick, the Financial and Consumer Services Commission or another body, adds advertising rules of its own. We keep to both and omit claims you could not defend.
Nothing binds you past the current month. A new account does deserve two or three months, though, because the first weeks are spent finding out which searches produce calls and which merely use up budget.
