The first step was to completely restructure the Google Ads account for better targeting and performance. Campaigns were divided by service type — Commercial Cleaning, Floor Cleaning, and Carpet Cleaning — to ensure each ad reached the most relevant audience. I carried out detailed keyword research to identify high-intent phrases such as “commercial cleaning services Adelaide”, “best floor cleaners near me”, and “carpet steam cleaning Adelaide”. To prevent wasted spend, I added negative keywords like DIY, jobs, and cheap cleaners, filtering out irrelevant or low-value searches.
Overview
JC Commercial is a trusted provider of commercial cleaning services in Adelaide. They serve a wide range of businesses from offices to warehouses with professional, eco-friendly cleaning solutions. Before working with me, their Google Ads campaigns were underperforming. They were spending too much, generating too few leads, and attracting the wrong audience. The ads weren’t bringing the right traffic, and the landing pages were not converting well. JC Commercial partnered with me to improve their ad performance, increase qualified leads, and lower the cost per lead. In just 5 months, we increased their total leads by 198%, improved their CTR by 8.7%, and reduced their CPA by 62.8%.

Client Feedback
Challenges
- When I started, the account had several issues:
- High CPC due to intense competition in the Adelaide cleaning market
- Low CTR from broad and generic keywords
- Poor conversion rates caused by slow and cluttered landing pages
- Wasted budget on clicks from irrelevant searches
- JC Commercial needed a smarter, more focused Google Ads strategy to drive real business results.
Goals
- I set clear goals from the beginning:
- Improve CTR to bring in better-quality traffic
- Reduce CPA without lowering lead volume
- Increase total leads across all cleaning services
- Build stronger visibility and ROI through smarter campaigns
Strategy & Execution
Next, I rewrote every advert to strengthen trust and encourage action. Each ad featured credibility markers such as Licensed, Insured, and 5-Star Rated, paired with compelling calls to action like “Book a Free Quote” and “24/7 Service Available”. I incorporated time-sensitive offers to create urgency and used ad extensions to boost visibility — Call Extensions for immediate contact, Sitelinks to promote different services, and Structured Snippets to highlight eco-friendly solutions and industry experience.
The landing pages were redesigned to load faster, look cleaner, and perform better on mobile. I positioned stronger calls to action such as “Get a Free Quote in 60 Seconds” prominently and added authentic customer testimonials with professional visuals. Through A/B testing, headline updates increased CTR by 42%, while shortening the enquiry forms improved conversion rate by 67%. These refinements transformed underperforming pages into consistent lead generators.
Once the new structure was live, I continuously tracked performance data through Google Ads and Analytics. Smart Bidding strategies were applied to balance lead volume with lower acquisition costs. Weekly performance reviews and adjustments to bids, ad copy, and keyword targeting ensured the campaigns remained cost-efficient and results-driven throughout the five-month period.
