Is Google Ads worth it in a market of roughly 226k people in the CSD?
Yes if the math works — Regina is small enough that wasted spend is obvious and large enough that information technology demand exists. We build the account to that scale. Vanity networks and unused Performance Max are how small cities get burned.
If the TAM cannot support the CPA, we say so before you launch.
Can you run ads without being based in Regina?
Yes. Regina PPC is targeting, copy, and landing pages — not a cubicle downtown. We still write like Warehouse District, not like a call centre. The account settings do the geography; the copy does the trust.
You get Canadian humans, not an overseas bid farm.
When do we know Regina ads are working?
When Regina PPC produces tracked leads at a CPA you can live with — not when CTR looks pretty. We instrument calls and forms first. Two weeks of “optimizing headlines” with no conversion tracking is a hobby.
Saskatchewan Legislative Building brand terms can flatter you. We separate them.
Should Regina businesses run ads and SEO together?
Almost always. Ads teach which information technology phrases convert; SEO keeps them when you stop paying. Doing one in a silo is how Saskatchewan companies pay twice for the same lesson.
We share the query list across both briefs.
Do you do Shopping and Performance Max in Regina?
When the feed and the margin deserve it. We do not turn on every Google surface because a checklist said so. Regina retail is not a demo account.
Search remains the default until the numbers argue.
