Large businesses with multiple branches face the challenge of designing local marketing for each individual location, a task that can make or break their local presence. Finding the right way to navigate this challenge is crucial.
Each business location should be found in the “near me” search. In practice, this means that each building block of local online marketing must be addressed multiple times and adapted to the corresponding location. In day-to-day business, there is often not enough time or the necessary know-how to be able to use the opportunities of local marketing consistently and successfully. This can make achieving optimal local visibility quite a challenge.

Local Services Ads and Google Ads serve distinct purposes within the online community. Local Services Ads, appearing above Google Ads, connect local businesses with customers seeking specific services their area, and work on a pay-per-lead model – businesses only pay when customers contact them directly, making the visibility virtually free. Google Ads, conversely, operate on a pay-per-click basis, encompass a broader range of businesses, products and services, and charge businesses each time a user clicks their ad, boosting sales potential but irrespective of direct customer contact. Both ad types serve unique roles in promoting local businesses. digitalagenten can help in determining which ad type is ideal for your local businesses.
