Plumber Marketing
How this local plumber cut lead costs by 82% and improved sales by 3X with a Google Ads strategy

Imagine being in business for over two decades, hiring various agencies and freelancers, yet feeling stuck in a cycle of disappointment.
This was the reality for Priority 1 Plumbing, a seasoned emergency plumbing service in the bustling city of Brisbane.
Specialising in everything from burst pipes to leak detection, they were no strangers to the challenges of digital marketing.
However, years of underwhelming results had built a wall of distrust against marketing agencies.
Their frustration peaked with their last agency, which, despite a two-year engagement, seemed to be in a passive state, merely maintaining the status quo.
The client’s main gripe was a lack of proactive results from their Google Ads campaigns.
They were essentially flying blind, with no clear understanding of their Cost per Acquisition (CPA) or the quality of their leads.
Their suspicion? They were paying for mediocrity and not receiving the service they deserved.
