The challenge

Busy market. Wasted clicks. Budget spread too thin.

Wasted spend

Plumbing campaigns often leak budget on DIY guides, job openings and competitor brand names.

Clicks, not calls

Without tight negative keywords, clicks rarely turn into calls or urgent jobs.

Unfocused bidding

Spreading spend across broad areas makes the cost of each lead spike.

How we solved it

Urgent searches. Clean data. Steady jobs.

01Search

High-intent trade campaigns

Bids on urgent searches like emergency plumber near me, hot water repair, blocked drain specialist and 24/7 plumber.

02Negatives

Negative keyword guardrails

Account-level lists block courses, jobs, tools, DIY and cheap-parts searches.

03Tracking

Calls and forms, counted once

Click-to-call and online bookings tracked, with each customer session counted as one lead.

04$5.89 CPC

Controlled bids and budgets
