FAQ

Common questions about Google Ads.

Do you manage Google Ads and PPC for Minneapolis and Twin Cities businesses?

Yes. We run Google Ads and PPC for businesses across Minneapolis, St. Paul, and the wider Twin Cities metro, from our home base in St. Louis Park out to the suburbs. Search and Shopping campaigns geo-targeted to the areas you actually serve, with conversion tracking that ties clicks back to booked revenue. Some of the most competitive accounts we run are for law firms and contractors, where a wasted click costs the most and clean match types matter more than budget.

How much should my business spend on Google Ads?

Google Ads budget should be sized to margins, average customer LTV, and competitive cost-per-click in your industry. We will quote a realistic starting budget after a strategy call so the number maps to your actual unit economics.

How much does Google Ads management cost?

We quote Google Ads management after a strategy call, scaled to your ad spend and account complexity. No percent-of-spend pricing. Build or relaunch projects are flat fees quoted separately.

How long until I see results from Google Ads?

Google Ads typically produces qualified leads in the first 1-2 weeks of launch, followed by a 30-60 day learning phase where we collect conversion data and optimize. Search campaigns ramp faster than PMax.

Do you require a long-term contract?

No 12-month lock-ins. Month-to-month services agreement with 30 days' notice to leave. We'd rather earn it every month than hold you to a year.

Who owns the Google Ads account?

You do. Always. We request manager-level access (MCC) to your account so it stays under your business name. If we ever part ways, the account, history, and assets stay with you.

How is AI changing Google Ads in 2026?

Smart Bidding, Performance Max, and AI Overviews have shifted the job. Feeding Google high-quality conversion data, strong creative assets, and clean account structure now matters more than micromanaging bids. We build accounts to work with the algorithm, not against it.

The strategy call

What you actually get on the call.

Not a sales call in disguise. A real walkthrough of your Google Ads account where we screen-share and tell you, in clear terms, where money is leaking and what to do about it.

Book the call

30 minutes · No card required · Joe runs the call, not a closer

01

Conversion tracking audit

We check your GA4, Tag Manager, and Google Ads conversion setup. If lead value is broken, you'll know within 5 minutes.

02

Wasted-spend walkthrough

Search term analysis, negative keyword gaps, and PMax placement audit. Most accounts have 15-30% of spend bleeding into irrelevant traffic.

03

Quick-win fix list

Three things you can fix this week, with or without us. Yours to keep whether you hire Snack Club or not.

04

A real "should we work together"

If you don't need us, we'll tell you. If we're not the right fit for your industry, we'll point you to someone who is.

We don't run this on its own.

Google Ads works when the site converts, the tracking is right, and the rest of the system is running alongside it. That is the whole job, and it is the only way we take it on.
