The overview

How we approach local service businesses.

Local service businesses are Sakativa's sweet spot. The playbook is well-understood: dominate the Map Pack, run Local Services Ads at the top of Google, layer in paid search for the bottom of the funnel, and track every call back to the source. The problem is that most local-services owners are running this themselves between jobs, or paying a lead-gen vendor who charges $60 per junk lead.

We replace the lead vendors. We replace the patchwork of freelancers. And we replace the marketing director you can't afford yet — with one team that knows local search inside and out, and reports in plain English on the calls that actually closed.

What we hear

The pain we keep seeing.

  • Lead vendors send junk and gouge on price
  • Your Google profile gets out-ranked by larger franchises
  • You can't tell which ads actually drive phone calls
  • Your website was built in 2018 and Google Ads doesn't love it
How Sakativa fixes it

The playbook for local service businesses.

  • Local Services Ads at the top of Google — pay per lead, not per click
  • Google Business Profile + Maps work to own the Map Pack
  • Call tracking on every campaign so attribution is honest
  • Landing pages and website tuning that lifts Google Ads quality scores
Illustrative scenario — not a client result

HVAC operator: 2x call volume, killed all 3 lead vendors, in one quarter

A 14-truck HVAC operator was paying $9,800/mo across three lead-gen vendors with an average cost per booked job of $187 and a 4.2★ Google rating with 38 reviews. The owner wanted out of the lead-vendor game but couldn't see a path that didn't tank lead volume.

We turned on LSAs, rebuilt the GBP, automated review requests, and ran Google Ads on the highest-margin service categories. Inside 90 days the phone was ringing 2x as often, cost per booked job had dropped to $31, the Map Pack rank had climbed to #1, and all three lead vendors were canceled.

Questions from local service businesses owners

What categories do you work with?
HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, garage doors, cleaning, pest control, lawn care, moving, paving, fencing — basically any service business that goes to a customer's location.
Do you do call tracking?
Yes — call tracking is set up on every channel so we can attribute calls to specific ads, keywords, or LSA categories.
Can you handle multi-location operators?
Yes — most of our local-services clients have 1–7 locations. Multi-location strategy is baked in.
What if I'm using a CRM like ServiceTitan?
Great — we'll integrate with it for offline conversion imports back to Google Ads, so the bidding AI optimizes on booked jobs, not just leads.
Do you guarantee leads?
No legitimate agency will, because lead volume depends on spend, season, and category. We do guarantee process and the 90-day Sakativa performance guarantee covers measurable lift.
