Local Service Ads Support
Local Service Ads put your business at the very top of Google with a Google Guaranteed badge — but the setup, verification and lead disputes take real time. We manage the whole account for you.
Built for licensed contractors and trade pros.
Overview
Local Service Ads (LSAs) are Google's pay-per-lead ad format that appears above traditional search ads, showing your business name, reviews and a Google Guaranteed or Google Screened badge. Unlike standard Google Ads, you pay only when someone contacts you through the ad, not per click.
Getting listed requires background checks, license verification, insurance documentation and an ongoing review process — steps many owners start and abandon because of the paperwork involved. Once live, the account still needs weekly attention to manage budget, respond to leads quickly and dispute invalid charges.
Problems solved
LSAs reward businesses that respond fast and manage the account closely — most don't have time to do either consistently.
Background checks, license and insurance verification can stall for weeks without follow-up. We track the process and push it forward.
LSA ranking rewards businesses that respond to leads quickly. We help set up notification and response workflows so leads don't sit.
Spam calls, wrong-service inquiries and no-shows can still get billed. We review leads regularly and file disputes for ones that qualify for credit.
A weekly budget that's never revisited either underspends available lead volume or runs out too early in the week. We adjust it based on demand.
What's included
01
Why it matters: Verification errors are the most common reason accounts stall before ever going live.
02
Why it matters: Accurate categories and service area determine which searches your ad appears for.
03
Why it matters: The badge is a key trust signal that separates your listing from unverified competitors.
04
Why it matters:Budgets that aren't monitored either waste spend or cap lead volume unnecessarily.
05
Why it matters: Disputing invalid leads recovers spend you shouldn't have paid for in the first place.
06
Why it matters: Review volume and rating directly affect your ranking within the ad placement.
Our approach
Local Service Ads reward accounts that are actively managed — responsiveness, dispute activity and review volume all affect placement. We treat the account as a weekly task, not a set-it-once campaign.
We also coordinate LSA activity with your Google Business Profile and review strategy, since reviews and responsiveness metrics carry over between the two.
Our process
Step 01
We confirm your business qualifies and submit the LSA application with required documentation.
Step 02
We track background check, license and insurance verification through to approval.
Step 03
We configure service categories, service area, hours and initial weekly budget.
Step 04
Once live, we monitor incoming leads and flag any that qualify for a dispute.
Who it's for
LSAs work best for licensed, insured businesses in eligible trades and service areas.
HVAC, plumbing, electrical and similar trades that require licensing and insurance documentation.
Cleaning, moving, locksmith and similar services eligible for Google Screened status.
Companies with staff able to answer or return calls quickly, since response time affects ranking.
Businesses that want the lead volume without managing verification paperwork and disputes themselves.
Expected outcomes
Local Service Ads management is intended to get your account verified, active and well-maintained — not to guarantee a specific number of leads.

FAQ
Eligible trades vary by location but commonly include HVAC, plumbing, electrical, locksmith, cleaning and similar licensed trades. We confirm eligibility for your specific trade and area during onboarding.
Local Service Ads charge per lead rather than per click, so you're billed when someone calls or messages through the ad rather than for every visitor.
It's a verification badge shown next to eligible businesses that pass background checks, license and insurance review, backed by a Google-funded guarantee for customers.
Yes. Leads that are spam, outside your service area or unrelated to your services can often be disputed for credit. We review leads regularly and file disputes on your behalf.
Verification timelines vary by trade and location, typically ranging from a few days to a few weeks depending on background check and licensing turnaround.
Next step
Verification and lead management are the two biggest reasons LSA accounts underperform. We handle both so the badge on your listing actually produces work.
We’ll confirm eligibility before any paperwork begins.
