Performance Marketing with Google Ads and Meta Ads

Paid advertising can bring enquiries quickly, but only if every click is traced through to a qualified lead. RDS Innovations sets up conversion tracking first, builds focused landing pages, runs Google and Meta campaigns, and uses feedback from your sales team to steer budgets toward leads that actually become customers.

IN PLAIN LANGUAGE

Digital Marketing, explained simply.

Performance marketing means paying for ads and judging them by measurable actions, such as a form submission, a call or a purchase, rather than by impressions alone. You pay Google or Meta directly for clicks or views. Our role is everything around that spend: campaign structure, targeting, ad copy and creative, landing pages, tracking and the weekly decisions that move money from what is not working to what is.

Google Search ads appear when someone is already searching for what you offer, so they capture existing demand. Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram reach people based on interests, behavior and similarity to your existing customers, so they are better at creating demand for things people are not yet searching for. Google's Performance Max campaigns use automation to place ads across Search, YouTube, Display, Gmail and Maps. They can drift toward low-quality leads, so we use them only where they suit the account.

Ad platforms optimize toward whatever you tell them is a conversion. If every form fill counts equally, the algorithm will happily find more people who fill forms but never answer the phone. That is why we build a lead quality feedback loop: your team marks leads as qualified, not reachable or not relevant in a CRM or shared sheet, and that information flows back into campaign decisions and, where possible, into the platforms through offline conversion imports.

The ad accounts and billing stay in your business's name. Ad spend is paid directly to Google and Meta, separate from our management fee, so you always see exactly what was spent and keep the account history if you ever move on.

PROBLEMS IT SOLVES

Why businesses invest in it.

Plenty of clicks, very few enquiries

Ads send traffic to a homepage or a slow page with no clear offer, so visitors leave before taking action. The click is paid for either way.

Leads that never pick up the phone

Instant lead forms on Meta often collect names and numbers from people who tapped by mistake. Without qualifying questions and follow-up tracking, cost per lead looks fine while sales stay flat.

No reliable way to tell which campaign worked

Conversion tags are missing, firing twice or counting page visits as leads, so the platforms and the reports show numbers nobody trusts.

Budget spent on irrelevant searches

Broad keyword settings without a negative keyword list mean ads show for job seekers, students, free-service searches or unrelated products.

Reports full of impressions and reach

Monthly reports focus on vanity metrics instead of the cost per qualified lead, the search terms that triggered ads, or what was changed and why.

DECISION GUIDE

Google Search ads, Meta ads or SEO: which fits your goal?

Each channel answers a different question about your customers. Many businesses use more than one, but the starting point should match your goal. Published starting packages for SEO and marketing are on our pricing page.

Google Search ads

Best for: Services and products people already search for, such as emergency repairs, clinics, lawyers or specific industrial parts

You appear at the moment someone is looking. Leads tend to have clear intent, but clicks in competitive categories can be expensive, and spend stops producing results the day it stops.

Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram

Best for: Visual products, new launches, events, real estate projects and offers people are not actively searching for yet

You reach people by interests and behavior and can build awareness quickly at lower cost per view. Lead intent is usually weaker, so qualifying questions and fast follow-up matter more.

SEO

Best for: Businesses that can wait several months and want a lower-cost, longer-lasting source of enquiries

Organic rankings do not charge per click, but they take sustained effort to build and cannot be switched on for a campaign. SEO often works alongside ads rather than replacing them.

PLANNING

Considerations, cost and timeline.

Limitations & implementation considerations

  • Ad spend is separate from our fee and is paid directly to Google and Meta. Results depend on budget, competition, your offer and your follow-up speed.
  • New campaigns go through a learning period. Early weeks are about gathering data, and performance usually stabilizes after adjustments.
  • Healthcare, financial services, real estate and some other categories have stricter advertising policies and may need approvals or limited targeting options.
  • Tracking and remarketing involve personal data. Consent, privacy notices and India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 should be reviewed with your legal advisers.
  • Leads lose value quickly. If your team cannot respond promptly, even well-run campaigns will underperform.

What affects cost

  • Number of platforms and campaigns managed
  • Monthly ad spend level and how many markets or locations are targeted
  • Number of landing pages and whether they are new builds or edits
  • Complexity of conversion tracking, including CRM and offline imports
  • Volume of ad creatives and how often they are refreshed
  • Reporting frequency and review meetings

Typical timeline

Tracking setup, landing pages and first campaigns typically take a couple of weeks, depending on approvals and how many pages are needed. Campaigns usually need a few weeks of data before optimization decisions become reliable.

FAQ

Questions about paid ads.

Is ad spend included in your management fee?

No. Ad spend is paid directly to Google and Meta from your own ad accounts, usually by card or prepaid balance. Our fee covers strategy, setup, creative coordination, optimization and reporting.

How much should we spend on ads to start?

It depends on how competitive your keywords are, how many locations you target and what a customer is worth to you. We review your market before launch and suggest a starting budget large enough to gather useful data.

Should we use Meta instant lead forms or our website?

Instant forms usually produce more leads at a lower cost, but often of weaker quality. Website forms produce fewer but more intentional leads. We often test both with qualifying questions and judge them on qualified leads, not raw volume.

Why do you need access to our CRM or lead sheet?

Ad platforms can only see that a form was submitted. Knowing which leads became customers lets us move budget toward the campaigns that actually produce sales and, where possible, teach the platforms to find similar people.

Will you use Performance Max for our account?

Only if it fits. It tends to suit online stores with a product feed or accounts with plenty of accurate conversion data. For lead generation with limited data, focused search campaigns are often easier to control.
