Choose Collaboration
Our monthly calls don’t start with a dashboard. They start with a question: how did the month actually feel?
- Did the leads turn into real jobs?
- Did cash flow feel healthy?
- Did your schedule stay full?
Then we look at the numbers — together. You’re the most important data point in the room.

Frequently asked questions about CraigAds
What does CraigAds do?
CraigAds is a digital marketing agency in Carrollton, Georgia that gets local service businesses found on Google and in AI search. Services include the Google Business Profile Booster, SEO, Google Ads (PPC), Local Services Ads, website design and hosting, Facebook and TikTok advertising, programmatic advertising, and CRM setup. Craig McIlvain founded the agency in 2023 after working in digital marketing since 2013.
Where is CraigAds located, and who do you work with?
Our office is at 103 Barnes Ave #9, Carrollton, GA 30117. Most clients are in West Georgia and metro Atlanta — Carrollton, Villa Rica, Douglasville, Dallas, Hiram, Kennesaw and Marietta — and we also work remotely with clients in other states. Clients are mostly home-service businesses such as plumbers, roofers, painters, and flooring and concrete-coating contractors, plus medical and aesthetic practices.
What should a local business start with?
For most local businesses, the Google Business Profile Booster or SEO comes first, because that is where customers already search. Advertising works best once that organic foundation is strong, so we usually recommend adding Google Ads or social advertising after the map and search presence is in place.
Does CraigAds optimize for AI search like ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity?
Yes. AI visibility is built into our SEO work: making sure AI crawlers can read the site, writing pages that answer questions directly, keeping business details consistent across the web, and building reviews and citations the AI tools check. In 2026 we published our own field study of how Carroll County residents use AI versus Google — read the AI vs. Google study.
What happens on the monthly strategy call?
Every client meets with Craig each month. The call starts with how the month actually felt — did leads turn into real jobs, did cash flow feel healthy, did the schedule stay full — and then we go through the numbers together and decide what to adjust next.
How do I get started with CraigAds?
Book a free 15-minute consult or call 770-406-6101. Before the call we run a Google Maps and AI search audit for your business and walk you through it live, so you leave with a clear picture of where you stand even if we never work together.
