Digital Marketing for Home Services & Trades

Kathmandu trades lose money on one broad-match campaign to the homepage: DIY, jobs, and competitor queries eat the budget, and plumbing CPA hides inside an electrical aggregate. I split campaigns by service, fix Google Business Profile first, and track calls — the method behind −42% CPA in 90 days and 3× qualified leads in six months on the published home-services cases.

Why us

Why Work With Me

GBP before more ads

Categories, NAP, photos, review SMS (no incentives). Maps is where emergency and “near me” clicks happen.

Service-split Search

Emergency plumbing vs general vs electrical — published waste ~35% → ~8% of spend on the Ads case.

Landings with NPR ranges and click-to-call

LCP and WhatsApp on mobile. Ads case: CVR 3.1% → 5.8%; CPA NPR 4,722 → 2,571.

Offline jobs as conversions

Import completed jobs or ROAS is a form fill, not a plumber on site.

Nepal Market Context

Home-service Search in the Valley is mobile and urgent. Job-seeker and DIY queries will consume a small NPR budget if negatives are not mined weekly. Google Business Profile Insights (calls, direction requests) is the organic half; Ads should not start until tracking and landings exist. These playbooks are Kathmandu-measured; other cities follow the same structure with local GBP.

My Process

  1. Discovery audit: Review accounts, analytics, competitors, and current conversion paths.
  2. Strategy & roadmap: Prioritized 90-day plan with KPIs, budget tiers in NPR, and quick wins.
  3. Implementation: Launch or fix campaigns, tracking, content, and technical foundations.
  4. Optimization cadence: Weekly bid/creative tests; monthly reporting tied to revenue or pipeline.
  5. Scale & handoff: Document SOPs so your team can maintain momentum after engagement.

Expected Results

Outcomes vary by industry and budget, but here are realistic benchmarks from Nepal campaigns I have managed or audited:

MetricTypical Range (Nepal)
Google Ads case (90 days)CPA NPR 4,722 → 2,571 (−42%); conversions 18 → 28/month; spend NPR 85,000 → 72,000
Local SEO case (6 months)Qualified leads 12–15 → 42–48/month (3×); organic visits 450 → 2,847 (as published)
Emergency vs general CPA (Ads case, month 3)Emergency plumbing NPR 2,100; general NPR 3,400; electrical NPR 2,950
Other citiesSame method; no invented Pokhara/Biratnagar CPA on this page

Figures are directional — your audit will set targets based on margin, competition, and tracking quality.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I run ads before fixing Maps?

Usually no. If GBP is the wrong category or NAP is split, Ads send people to a weak pack listing.

Emergency vs general plumbing — same campaign?

No. The published Ads case hid a 2× CPA difference until the account was split.

Do you guarantee job volume?

No. Published figures are specific Kathmandu engagements, not a Nepal average.

WhatsApp or form?

Click-to-call and WhatsApp usually beat long forms for B2C trades. Track both.

Multi-city crews?

One GBP per guidelines; city pages for Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Bhaktapur, Pokhara, and Chitwan. Do not fake a Bhaktapur address.
