Google Ads Report · First 11 days

Calls now cost $82, down 41%.

From Oct 1 to Oct 11, 2026, our first 11 days on the account, Google Ads produced 12 connected calls: callers who got through and stayed on the line for at least a minute. That is close to the 13 in the 11 days before we took over, on 46% less spend, so each call cost $82 instead of $139.

A connected call is a call placed from an ad that was answered and lasted at least 60 seconds, taken from Google's call log. Shorter calls, missed calls and map interactions are left out, because they are not real inquiries. The prior period (Sep 20 - Sep 30) is the 11 days before we took over the account. Calls through your website and Google Business Profile listings are covered by CallRail further down.

How to read this chart. Daily spend was evened out when we took over, which is why the line is flatter from Oct 1. The quiet days are the two weekends (Oct 3-4 and Oct 10-11). The new Search lead campaigns for Plano and Mansfield went live on Oct 2. Twelve calls is an early read rather than proof, so we will judge the new setup over its first 4 to 6 weeks.

Fort Worth is the expensive click. Fort Worth Lead Search paid $15.87 per click, several times what the other Search campaigns paid, though it still turned those clicks into calls at about the account average. Mansfield Lead Search has not produced a call in its first 10 days. Both are first on the review list.

What happened on the site.

Actions recorded by Google Analytics (GA4) from people who arrived on an ad click, as Google Ads counts them.

No form submissions were recorded from ad visitors in either period. The same zero shows before and after takeover, which points to how the forms are tracked rather than to the ads. We are testing both website forms so every web inquiry is counted alongside the calls.
Call tracking · CallRail

What happened on the phone.

CallRail went live between Oct 2 and Oct 5. It tracks calls from your Google Business Profile listings for Plano, Mansfield and Fort Worth, and calls from website visitors who arrived on a Google ad. Calls placed straight from an ad's call button are counted by Google above and are not included here.

Most tracked calls come from your Google listings, mainly Plano. 22 of the 35 calls came through the Plano Business Profile. Only 1 came from a website visitor who clicked an ad, because the website swaps in a tracking number for the (817) line only. The Plano (972) number and 833-FIX-MY-RV are not tracked yet, and we are fixing that next.
What's next

Where we take it from here.

Each move ties back to what these first 11 days showed.

Operating plan

The next window.

  • Lean into the Search lead campaigns Search is bringing in calls at $72 against $103 for Smart, so we will shift weight toward Plano and Fort Worth Lead Search as long as the data holds.
  • Bring down Fort Worth's click cost and get Mansfield calling by reviewing keywords and search terms, with the focus on insurance and collision repair.
  • Track every number on the site by extending CallRail to the Plano (972) line and 833-FIX-MY-RV, so every call from an ad visitor is counted.
  • Count web inquiries by confirming the contact forms record in GA4 and Google Ads.
  • Add Meta to the next report so you see Google and Meta side by side once the Meta campaigns have a full window.
The next chapter

Now we build on it.

We push the campaigns that are producing calls, close the tracking gaps, and bring you a fresh read each window. Tell us how these calls are turning into repair jobs.
