Paid Advertising
Paid Ads in Peterborough That Actually Pay You Back
Google Ads, Meta Ads and TikTok campaigns built for Peterborough businesses. We make the maths work - spend per lead, return on ad spend, monthly profit - not vanity metrics.
Why most Peterborough businesses lose money on ads
Most local businesses that try paid ads either run them themselves between jobs, or hand them to a generalist agency that bolts the work onto a 20-client roster. Either way, the result is the same: budget burned on broad keywords, weak landing pages, no conversion tracking, no creative testing, and no idea which spend actually came back as revenue.
Paid ads aren't magic - they're maths. Done properly they're the fastest, most predictable customer acquisition channel a Peterborough business can run. Done badly, they're a monthly tax on optimism. We exist to fix the second problem.
What our paid ads service includes
Every NOAZ paid ads engagement starts with a strategy phase: which platform fits your offer (Google Search for high-intent local searches, Meta and TikTok for awareness and retargeting, YouTube for nurture), what your real acquisition figure needs to be for the unit economics to work, what creative angles will resonate with Peterborough customers, and what landing pages we need to build or fix to convert the clicks.
We then build out campaigns with proper account structure, geo-targeting tightened to PE1-PE7 and surrounding postcodes, negative keyword lists, conversion tracking via GA4 and offline conversion imports for phone calls, plus weekly creative refreshes. You get a dedicated account manager and a live dashboard showing spend, leads, spend per lead and return on ad spend.
Google Ads for high-intent Peterborough searches
Google Search ads are where the money is for most local service businesses. When someone types 'emergency electrician Peterborough' or 'wedding photographer Cambridgeshire', they're not browsing - they're buying. Our Google Ads service captures those searches with tightly targeted Search and Performance Max campaigns, paired with Google Business Profile call-only ads for mobile, and Local Service Ads where they're available for your industry.
We handle keyword research, ad copy that earns clicks, ad extensions, sitelinks, location targeting, smart bidding strategies and call tracking - so every enquiry is attributed to the campaign that earned it.
Meta and TikTok for growth and brand
Search captures existing demand. Meta and TikTok create it. For Peterborough brands selling products, experiences or visual services - restaurants, retail, weddings, beauty, fitness, e-commerce - paid social is where you scale beyond your existing audience.
We pair our content creation team with paid media buyers so the creative and the targeting are built together. Vertical video, carousels, lookalike audiences from your existing customers, retargeting for site visitors who didn't convert, and ongoing creative testing so the account never goes stale. The result: predictable monthly customer acquisition that stays profitable.
