Google Local Services application process and guidelines

If you’re ready to start using Google Local Services ads, here are five steps you can take to get started. And remember — when you partner with WebFX, we’ll help with every step of the process from ad creation to monitoring.

1. Confirm your eligibility

1. Confirm your eligibility

Before you get too ahead of yourself, you must check to make sure your business is eligible for Google Local Services ads. As stated previously, this feature is only available to certain industries in a certain number of cities.

You can verify your eligibility on Google’s Local Services sign-up page. Once you have your eligibility confirmed, that will take you to the next step.

2. Create a business profile

2. Create a business profile

The second step is to create your business’s profile. This is a key part of your ad because it determines where your ad will appear in search results.

WebFX will help you apply, set up, and optimize your business profile.

Your profile determines which jobs match your Local Services. It’s important that you’re honest about the services you offer to ensure you only appear in front of ads that want your services. If you lie about some of your services, you’ll lose money on leads that contact your business for services you don’t offer.

In addition, you’ll want to specify the area where you want leads. If your business doesn’t take customers outside a 15-mile radius, you’ll want to specify that. It will prevent you from wasting money on leads that are outside your operation area.

You can also edit your weekly budget, business hours, service areas, and job types in your profile.

3. Add your license and insurance details

3. Add your license and insurance details

Google will only allow legitimate companies to have a Google Local Services ad. You must upload your license and insurance information to your profile. All the paperwork for your business should be accurate and up to date.

Google will want you to provide your general liability insurance details, too. As long as your insurance is up-to-date, Google will approve you for the guarantee.

4. Set your budget

4. Set your budget

Google Local Services ads operate just like PPC. You need to set a budget to state how much you want to spend to run your ads. This is a monthly budget that you can change as you require.

Keep in mind: You only pay when customers call or message your business. Your budget should be based on how many customers you want to receive or how many you can handle within a month’s time.

5. Follow up with leads

5. Follow up with leads

When you launch your ads, you’ll start getting leads for your business. It’s important that you follow up on these leads when they contact your business. You have three options:

  1. Reply: When you reply, you send a message in email or text to people who reached out to your business.
  2. Call: If someone provides their phone number, you can give them a phone call to follow up.
  3. Decline: Google also gives you the option to decline leads that contact your business. If you choose to decline, you can provide a reason and the customer will be notified. On the off chance that something changes, you can recover requests.

With WebFX as your ad partner, you can easily monitor lead flows and control your budget through the platform to help you get the best results.

If this process sounds daunting, don’t worry. WebFX can help. Just give us a call at 888-601-5359 to learn more.

FAQs about Google LSA management services

What are Google Local Services ads?

Google Local Services ads help you connect with local people searching for your services. These ads appear at the top of the search results and operate similarly to pay-per-click (PPC) ads.

How do Google Local Services ads work?

When a user conducts a search for a local service, they generate a list of local businesses that offer that service. The Google Local Services ads appear side by side at the top of the results, followed by the PPC ads and Google Map listings.

People who are interested in your products or services will find your listing immediately. They can contact your business and book your services straight from this ad. Google gives your audience the option to call or send a message when they find your ad.

It’s important to note that these ads aren’t meant to replace traditional search ads. The goal is to put Google-verified businesses first to help people find trustworthy businesses first.

Who can use Google Local Services ads?

These ads aren’t available to every industry or every area, so PPC ads are still relevant and important to your advertising campaign. Currently, Google Local Services ads are mainly for locksmiths, plumbers, electricians, HVAC companies, carpet cleaners, house cleaners, garage repair companies, and the like.

Where do Google Local Services ads appear?

Google Local Services ads are also restricted to certain areas. This service can mostly be accessed by businesses that operate in bigger metro cities, such as Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and New York City. While it is expected that this will expand over time, it is currently restricted to more popular cities.

If Google Local Services ads are available in your area, you can see them on mobile, tablet, and desktop.

lsa1 1024x296

What is the Google Guarantee badge?

One of the most notable features of a Google Local Services ad is the Google Guarantee badge. When you sign up for Local Services ads, you automatically apply for the Google Guarantee. This badge helps you build a great reputation with your audience.

To earn this badge, you must pass Google’s background check and have your license and insurance details verified. This is to ensure that you are a legally operating business that has the necessary insurance if something goes awry. As long as you are a legitimate business that is up-to-date on all your paperwork, you can easily obtain this badge.

So, what exactly is the Google Guarantee?

lsa2 1024x297

If people aren’t satisfied with the quality of a company’s work, Google will refund those customers the amount paid for the jobs booked through their ads. This amount caps at $2000. Google can use the job invoice to properly reimburse customers who booked a company that provided them with poor services.

This coverage does not include future projects, damages to property, dissatisfaction with price or the provider responsiveness, or cancellations. The coverage is solely for the quality of the project and not the company. Customers have to submit their claims within 20 days of the project completion to be considered.

If you are a company that already provides quality service, you won’t need to worry about claims as much. The badge will serve as a trust signal to your audience. They will feel more comfortable booking your company because Google is backing you if anything goes wrong.

What are the benefits of using Google Local Services ads

There are numerous benefits you’ll reap from using Google Local Services ads.

1. You reach more valuable leads

Google Local Services ads drive valuable leads for your business. You will obtain leads and people will book your services. People trust Google’s local ads, so they are more inclined to book your business.

2. You can track your appointments

It’s easy to track your appointments and see how many people are booking your business. Google even gives you the option to pause your ads if you’re booked solid and resume them when business slows down.

3. Your business will be seen first

Being seen first can mean the difference between obtaining leads and losing them to the competition. Since Google Local Services ads appear at the top of all the results, you ensure that leads see your business first.

4. You build trust with your audience

The Google Guarantee builds confidence in your business. This can have an impact beyond your Google Local Services ad.

5. You only pay for valid leads

Google will only charge you if you obtain leads that are seriously interested in your business. If someone sends a text or email, makes a call, or leaves a voicemail, you will be charged for that lead. You aren’t charged for people who view your ad and don’t contact your business.

6. You will reach more voice search customers

If someone’s bathroom is currently flooding, they aren’t going to take the time to pull out their phone and find a local plumber. They’ll rely on a voice search device and ask them to contact a local plumber. By having a Google Local Services ad, those voice search customers are more likely to be directed to your ad.

7. You will need to conduct minimum maintenance

These Google ads don’t require keyword research or ad testing. Your ad is automatically triggered based on how people search. Google will determine if your ad fits the bill, whether some searches “plumber” or a phrase like “leaky faucet under sink.”
