Google Ads Management Toronto
Sklentr is a Google Ads agency in Toronto, running paid search for businesses across Canada. We plan the campaigns, write and test the ads, set up conversion tracking so you can see what a lead actually costs, and report on what the spend returned.
What PPC management services in Toronto actually cover
Paid search only works when the account, the landing page and the tracking are set up together. Most accounts we look at have two of the three. Here is what we handle.
Campaign and audience planning
We start with the searches your customers actually make and the budget you have to work with. That decides the campaign structure, the match types, and which keywords are worth bidding on before any money is spent.
Ad creative and testing
We write the ads, then test headlines and descriptions against each other so the account improves over time rather than sitting still. Testing is continuous, not a one off at launch.
Conversion tracking setup
This is the part that is usually missing. Without it you can see clicks but not leads, so you cannot tell which campaign is paying for itself. We set up conversion tracking in Google Ads and GA4 so every enquiry, call and form submission is attributed to the campaign that produced it.
Landing page review
A well run campaign pointed at a weak page still fails. We look at where your traffic lands and tell you what needs to change. If the page needs rebuilding, we build websites too, so that conversation is straightforward.
Performance reporting
A monthly report in plain language: what was spent, what it returned, what changed, and what we are doing next. No dashboard you have to interpret on your own.
Meta advertising alongside search
Google Ads captures people already looking for you. Facebook and Instagram ads reach people who are not searching yet. Most accounts benefit from both, and we run them together when the budget supports it.
When a Google Ads agency is worth paying for
PPC management in Toronto is worth paying for when at least one of these is true.
- You are spending on Google Ads and cannot tell which campaigns produce enquiries
- You have never run paid search and do not want to learn it on your own budget
- Your account was set up once and has not been touched since
- You need leads sooner than SEO can realistically deliver them
- You are launching something new and need traffic on day one rather than month six
It is not worth paying for if your monthly budget is very small. Below roughly $1,000 a month in ad spend, management fees eat too much of the budget to make sense, and you are usually better served by local SEO and your Google Business Profile. We will tell you that on the call rather than take the work.
How we run Google Ads management in Toronto
The same four stages we use on every project, applied to paid search.
1. Discover
We look at your current account if you have one, your website, your competitors’ ads, and what a customer is worth to you. That last number decides what a click is worth bidding.
2. Plan
You get a proposed campaign structure, a recommended budget split, and the management fee, in writing, before anything runs. You approve it before we build.
3. Create
We build the campaigns, write the ads, set up tracking, and launch. The first two weeks are deliberately conservative while the account gathers data.
4. Review
Monthly. What worked, what did not, what we are changing. Budgets and priorities get agreed again rather than assumed.
What Google Ads management costs
Two costs, and they are separate. Your ad spend goes to Google, not to us. You set it, you control it, and you can change it at any time.
Our management fee is quoted after we have seen the account and agreed the scope. It depends on how many campaigns are running, how much building is needed at the start, and how often you want reporting. We propose it in writing before any work begins, and it does not change without your agreement.
We do not publish a fixed price because a single service campaign and a multi region ecommerce account are not the same job. Tell us your spend and what you are selling on the call and you will have a number.
Common questions about Google Ads
How much should I spend on Google Ads in Toronto?
It depends on what a customer is worth to you, not on a standard figure. Competitive Toronto service keywords can cost $8 to $18 a click, so a budget that produces enough clicks to learn from usually starts around $1,000 a month. We will work out what your realistic range is on the call.
How long before Google Ads produces leads?
Paid search can produce clicks on day one, which is its main advantage over SEO. Producing leads at a cost you are happy with usually takes four to eight weeks, because the account needs data before it can be optimised properly. Anyone promising profitable results in week one is guessing.
Do I need a new website before running ads?
Not always, but the landing page decides whether the spend works. We review your current pages first and tell you honestly whether they will convert. If they will not, we say so before you spend money finding out.
What is the difference between Google Ads and SEO?
Google Ads buys visibility immediately and stops when you stop paying. SEO earns visibility slowly and keeps it. Most businesses need both: ads for leads now, SEO for the cost per lead to fall over time. We offer both, so we have no reason to push you toward one.
Who owns the Google Ads account?
You do. We work in your account, not ours. If we stop working together, the account, the campaign history and the data stay with you. Ask any agency this question before you sign with them.
Can you take over an existing account?
Yes, and it is often faster than starting fresh because the historical data is worth keeping. We audit what is there, tell you what we would change, and agree it with you before touching anything.
Do you work with businesses outside Toronto?
Yes. We are a Toronto PPC agency and most of our clients are in the GTA, but we run campaigns for businesses across Canada. Paid search does not require us to be in the same city as you.
