Google Ads Specialist — Local Lead Gen for Personal Training Studio (South Bay LA) About us: We're an established personal training business serving the South Bay area of Los Angeles.

We want to add a Google Ads channel to generate a steady, predictable flow of qualified local leads. The work: - Full account setup: keyword research, campaign + ad group structure, geo-targeting for our service area, ad copy - Conversion tracking done properly (form submissions AND phone calls — GA4 / Google Tag Manager / call tracking) - Ongoing management: bid/keyword/negative-keyword optimization, ad testing, landing page recommendations - Monthly reporting that shows cost per lead, cost per acquisition, and which campaigns are actually producing clients Must-haves: - Demonstrated experience with LOCAL SERVICE and lead-generation accounts. Please do not apply if your portfolio is primarily e-commerce/Shopify. - Active Google Ads certification (Google Partner a plus) - The account is built in and owned by US — all history and data stay with our account - Direct communication with the person managing the account (no handing us off to a junior) To be considered, please answer briefly: 1. Share 1–2 local lead-gen accounts you've run, with real numbers (starting vs. improved cost per lead, timeframe). 2. How do you structure conversion tracking for a business that gets leads by both form and phone call? 3. What's your pricing — flat monthly fee vs. percentage of spend — and your one-time setup fee? 4. Roughly how many accounts do you manage at once? Budget: Management fee to be agreed based on scope; ad spend discussed separately. We're ready to move quickly with the right person.
