Common challenges

What’s holding your Google Ads back?

We see the same issues across many Australian businesses. If any of these sound familiar, we’ll find the best place to start.

  • Starting from scratch

    Not sure how to structure your campaigns, what to target or how much to spend.

  • Spending without clarity

    Clicks are coming in, but you’re not sure what’s working, what’s wasted, or what’s driving actual enquiries.

  • Getting the wrong leads

    You’re getting traffic, but not the right type of enquiries, or they’re not turning into paying customers.

Proof

Real results.

We work with Australian businesses across a range of industries, helping them get more from their marketing and turn enquiries into revenue.

FAQ

Common questions.

Straight answers to the questions we get from Australian businesses about Google Ads management.

Do you work with businesses outside of Sydney?

Yes. Obsidian Lab is based in Melbourne and manages Google Ads for B2B and service businesses across Australia.

How much do Google Ads management services cost?

The management fee covers the agreed work and is set once we understand your market and starting point, after the free audit. Your ad spend is separate and paid directly to Google. We agree the scope and fee before any work begins.

Do I need an existing Google Ads account?

No. If you’re not running ads yet, we don’t need any access for the audit. If you are, we send a read-only access request after you book.

How long does it take to see results?

Wasted spend usually shows up in the first week. Lead volume and quality take 4 to 8 weeks of data before scaling decisions are reliable.
