The situation

CleanLab cleans offices and commercial buildings. The first year of Google Ads worked, so the company decided to put 95% more behind it. The usual result of more spend is more expensive leads. The brief was to scale without paying more for each one.

What we built

  • Campaigns restructured around the commercial cleaning searches that turned into quotes
  • Negative keywords and bids reviewed every week as spend went up, so the extra budget went to what converted
  • Month by month comparison against the same month a year earlier
