Google Ads that generate enquiries, not just clicks. Every pound tracked, every conversion measured.
Edinburgh's tourism sector generated £1.7bn in 2023, its highest ever. Hospitality and tourism businesses compete for the same high-intent local and visitor searches, and local SEO determines who wins.
Edinburgh's tourism and hospitality sector depends heavily on people searching on their phones for somewhere to eat, drink or stay nearby, right now, which makes the Google Maps local pack one of the most valuable pieces of digital real estate in the city. Many hospitality venues treat their Google Business Profile as a formality rather than an active channel: hours left unconfirmed, photos out of date, reviews unanswered. In a city with this much visitor footfall, keeping that profile complete and current, alongside consistent local citations, is one of the more directly measurable ways to capture demand that already exists.
Imagine you have a market stall at the world's biggest market. Millions of people walk past every day. Google Ads is like putting a sign right at eye level: but you only pay when someone actually stops and comes over to your stall. The moment you stop paying, the sign disappears. That is the trade-off: immediate, controllable, measurable, but not permanent. The skill is in making sure the people who come over are the ones most likely to buy.
Google Ads captures the 5% who are ready to buy right now. That is why it works immediately. But 95% of your future customers are not ready yet. Brand building and content marketing reach them before they are ready, so when they finally search, they already know your name.
Edinburgh's financial services sector, Standard Life Aberdeen, Royal Bank of Scotland, Scottish Widows, and Baillie Gifford, makes it the most professionally sophisticated business market in Scotland. Alongside financial services, tourism, and legal and professional services create a business community with high expectations for marketing quality, compliance, and measurable outcomes.
Paid search management built around your actual business goals: leads, calls, or purchases. Full setup, ongoing management, and monthly optimisation with transparent reporting on every penny spent.
We build campaign structures around your actual business goals, not around what is easiest to manage. Separate campaigns for each product or service, match types that control who sees your ads, and a negative keyword list built from day one to stop budget being wasted on irrelevant searches.
We identify every term your customers search at the moment they are ready to buy, then systematically exclude the terms that look similar but bring in tyre-kickers. This is where most accounts leak budget.
We write ads that earn the click, then build or optimise the landing page that converts the visitor. A great ad to a weak landing page is wasted spend. We work on both ends of the funnel.
Automated bidding strategies calibrated to your actual conversion data, with manual override where automation loses precision. We do not let Google spend on autopilot without oversight.
Every form submission, phone call, and purchase tracked accurately before we spend a penny. Without accurate conversion tracking, Google's algorithm optimises against itself. We fix this first.
Cost per lead, ROAS, conversion rate, and search impression share reported monthly with plain-English analysis of what moved, what did not, and what we are testing next.
