The challenge

Healthy impressions, missing clicks

The ads leaned on generic trust language, professional and trusted specialists. Google served them to thousands of searchers who scrolled straight past.

Impressions looked fine, so the account seemed to be working. The clicks and the customers were not there.

What we did

Three moves, in order

1

Rebuilt the RSAs around intent

New headlines led with the exact service, the city and the next step, not vague credibility claims.

2

Added pain hooks

Lines like Hate scratches? Fix today spoke to the actual job the searcher wanted done.

3

Cut the generic filler

We removed professional company language and off-topic services that diluted the message.

The Heureux approach

Nobody searches for a professional company. They search to fix a scratch, in Ottawa, today. Copy that mirrors the job, place and next step wins the click.

The result

A 240x jump in click-through

The rebuilt headline hit 7.31 percent CTR with 58 conversions, against 0.03 percent CTR and 2 conversions on 12,163 impressions for the old generic line, a roughly 240x lift on the same account, with supporting variants at 5.5 to 5.8 percent.
