Choose From Two LSA Management Options
Partially Managed Local Services Ads ($50 per month)
Our Partially Managed Local Services Ads option is ideal for businesses that want expert management while retaining daily account control.
We’ll audit your Local Services Ads profile and provide recommendations for improving your visibility, lead quality, and overall presence on Google’s platform. Our team will help ensure that your profile accurately represents your services, service areas, business information, and competitive advantages. If Google implements changes to the platform or new features become available, we’ll help you understand how they may affect your business.
This plan is great for business owners who are comfortable managing their own leads but want a safety net of digital marketing professionals available for professional advice and strategic direction.
Fully Managed Local Services Ads ($150 per month)
Want to focus on your business and have professionals handle your Local Services Ads? Our Fully Managed service provides complete account management by an experienced team.
We regularly review your account to make sure your ads are performing at their best. Our team tracks lead quality, monitors account health, reviews performance metrics, and actively optimizes to improve results over time.
We’ll also help you spot trends in your account performance so you can better understand what’s working, where opportunities lie, and how your advertising spend contributes to your business growth.
Local Services Ads questions, answered
How much does Local Services Ads management cost?
CraigAds offers two plans: Partially Managed at $50 per month, where we audit your profile and advise while you run the account day to day, and Fully Managed at $150 per month, where our team handles the account completely. Google’s per-lead charges are separate and paid to Google directly.
What are Google Local Services Ads?
Local Services Ads are the Google Guaranteed or Google Screened listings that appear above the regular search results and ads for local service searches. You pay Google per lead rather than per click, and to run them Google verifies your business — license, insurance and background checks, depending on the category.
What is the difference between the partially and fully managed plans?
Partially Managed is for owners comfortable handling their own leads: we audit the profile, recommend improvements to visibility and lead quality, and explain platform changes as they come. Fully Managed adds complete account management — regular reviews of performance, lead quality and account health, active optimization, and help spotting trends in what the spend is producing.
Which businesses can use Local Services Ads?
Google offers LSAs in home-service categories such as plumbing, HVAC, electrical, roofing, cleaning, pest control, landscaping and garage door work, as well as professional categories like law, real estate and financial services. Eligibility depends on your category and location and on passing Google’s screening.
What happens with bad or wrong-number leads?
Google lets you dispute leads that are not real service requests, and on the Fully Managed plan we track lead quality and handle those disputes as part of the regular account review, so you are not paying for leads that should not count.
Do Local Services Ads replace Google Ads or SEO?
No. LSAs sit above the search results, Google Ads appear in the ad slots, and SEO and your Google Business Profile earn the map pack and organic listings. They are separate placements that work together, and many of our clients run LSAs alongside GBP Booster or SEO.
