Get found · Get called · Get booked
More booked customers, not just clicks.
Lead generation for local businesses that live on phone calls and appointments.
Google Ads, Meta Ads, local SEO and websites that bring local businesses more customers. The person searching right now picks from whoever shows up first and answers fastest. We make sure that's you.
What is possible
What is possible when a local business gets found properly
01 / Google Ads
Buy intent, not attention
Search ads reach a customer who has already decided to spend money today. Campaigns sized to your service radius, ticket and team capacity, so you are not paying for calls you cannot run.
02 / Local SEO
Own the map pack
Three businesses show above the fold on a local search. Profile, service-area pages, reviews and technical structure put you in that list, and unlike ads, it keeps working even if you aren't spending.
03 / Site & follow-up
Convert the visit
A site that loads fast on a phone with a weak signal, a tap-to-call always in reach, missed-call text-back and automated follow-up so nothing sits unanswered while you are with a customer.
More leads only help if nothing slips through the cracks.
So every lead gets an instant reply and a reminder before the appointment. And when someone asks for a quote and then ghosts you, automatic follow-up texts bring them back. The system does the chasing, so you can get back to work.
What happens and when
The first six months
Month 1
Audit & fit
Search demand, competitor rankings, where your site and profile leak. You keep the findings either way.
Month 2
Foundation
Pages that convert and rank, call tracking, CRM and follow-up wired, profile and citations cleaned.
Months 2-3
Launch
Ads live on your highest-intent searches, budgeted so the first month teaches us something instead of just spending.
Months 3-6
Tune
Shift budget to the searches that book appointments and jobs, and keep building rankings so more calls come in without paying for each click.
Who you are hiring
Athena Gardner
I run paid search and SEO for local businesses (mostly home-service contractors), and I have done it from inside marketing agencies and freelancing, building the campaigns, the sites and the reporting clients actually saw. Golden Ads is built on that experience, with a direct line to the people doing the work and nobody learning on your budget.
We onboard a maximum of two new clients a month, on purpose. Your account gets built carefully and watched weekly instead of getting whatever is left after a new-business quota.
Loyal, steady, and focused on bringing results back.
