Sellevate
Goulburn Valley

Google Ads in Shepparton, run to booked jobs.

Shepparton businesses lose more money to the wrong words than the wrong budget. The way the Goulburn Valley searches is not the way most marketing copy is written.

In short

Sellevate manages Google Ads, still often searched as AdWords, for Shepparton trades, clinics and local businesses from Geelong. Campaigns target Shepparton on real drive time, and every call and form is tracked to a booked job.

Who it suits
Shepparton service businesses that need the phone to ring.
Where
Geelong based, running Shepparton accounts remotely.
How it is priced
Flat monthly fee. No percentage of ad spend, no markup, and every account stays in your name.
How it is judged
Cost per enquiry and cost per booked job, reported monthly in writing.

What we run

Conversion tracking first
Calls, forms and bookings tracked before a dollar moves. Most accounts we inherit optimise toward things that never became a customer.
Search that matches intent
Tight keyword sets, real negative lists, and ads written for the job being searched for rather than the industry it belongs to.
Landing pages that close
Paid traffic pointed at a homepage is wasted. Each campaign lands on a page built for that one job.
Shepparton targeting, honestly set
Shepparton, Mooroopna, Kialla, Tatura, Numurkah and the Goulburn Valley, targeted on real drive time rather than a lazy radius.
Flat fee, your account
No mark-up on ad spend. Your card, your account, your data. What you pay Google is what Google gets.
Reported in dollars
Cost per enquiry and cost per booked job every month, next to what you spent.

Why the search language and the marketing language diverge in Shepparton

People search for the job, not the industry

Agricultural and trade businesses describe themselves in industry language, and their customers search in plain job language. The gap between those two vocabularies is where the budget goes. We build the keyword set from what people actually type, then write ads in the same words, which is also what lifts Quality Score and drops the cost per click.

One of the most linguistically diverse regional cities in the state

Shepparton has a notably multicultural population, and that shows up in search behaviour: different phrasing, different spellings, and a meaningful share of people searching in a second language. Most accounts never look at the search terms report closely enough to notice. It is free information sitting in the account.

Seasonality is real here and it is not the retail calendar

Demand in a food and agriculture region moves on the growing and processing calendar, not on Black Friday. A budget that runs flat across the year underspends in the weeks that convert and overspends in the weeks that do not. The fix is scheduling, and it costs nothing to implement.

The honest limit

Search volume in the valley is thinner than in Bendigo. Google Ads will get the phone ringing, but past a certain spend the growth has to come from reviews, local search presence and referral systems rather than from more clicks.

AdWords management in Shepparton, what it includes.

Google renamed AdWords to Google Ads in 2018, and most Shepparton business owners still search for AdWords management, so this page answers both. Shepparton AdWords management with us is the same engagement as Google Ads management: one flat monthly fee, your own account, and a campaign built for the jobs you want in Shepparton, Mooroopna, Kialla, Tatura, Numurkah and the Goulburn Valley.

What you get each month: the keyword list and negative list reviewed against real search terms, ad copy that names Shepparton and the job, landing pages tuned to convert, bids set by cost per enquiry rather than by clicks, and a report in dollars. What you do not get: a percentage of spend, a lock-in contract, or an account you cannot see.

If you already run AdWords in Shepparton and want a second opinion before changing anything, the audit is free and you keep the findings either way.

Who it suits

Trades, clinics, professional services and local retailers in Shepparton that need the phone to ring, and can take the work when it does.

Where it runs

Shepparton, Mooroopna, Kialla, Tatura, Numurkah and the Goulburn Valley, set on drive time, not a radius.

We publish client figures only when we can show them from inside the client’s own admin, with their permission. The one published today is an online store. The method is the one we run for service businesses: track every enquiry to the booked job first, fix the page that converts, then put the budget behind what works.

I usually ignore calls from marketing agencies, but I'm glad I gave Sellevate a chance. They were straightforward, explained everything clearly, and didn't make unrealistic promises. The team has been easy to work with and always available when I need help. Definitely recommend them.

Questions

Is Google Ads worth it in a market this size?

Usually yes, because the auction is soft and the intent is high. What matters is concentration: in a smaller market you win by owning the profitable slice of searches rather than being visible across all of them.

Are you based in Shepparton?

No, we are in Geelong. We run Goulburn Valley accounts remotely. We say that plainly rather than pretending to a local office.

Do we keep our account?

Always. Your account, your card, your conversion history and your audiences. We work inside it with manager access, and if we part ways everything stays with you.

What do you report?

Cost per enquiry and cost per booked job, monthly, in writing, next to what you spent. Not impressions, not clicks, not a screenshot of a good week.

Is AdWords management the same as Google Ads management?

Yes. Google renamed AdWords to Google Ads in 2018 and the product is the same auction. When a Shepparton business asks us for AdWords management they get our Google Ads management: flat fee, your account, tracked to booked jobs.

Do you offer AdWords management for Shepparton businesses that already have an agency?

Yes. Most Shepparton accounts we take on come from another agency. We audit the account first, free, and show you what we would change before you decide. If it is already run well we will say so.
