The problem

Why marketing gets expensive for electricians

01

Small jobs eat the budget

Searches for a single outlet or light fitting are common but low value. Without separate campaigns, budget leans toward these instead of panel upgrades and rewiring.

02

Trust and licensing matter more than price

Electrical work feels risky to homeowners. Ads and pages that do not show licensing, insurance and real reviews lose to competitors who do.

03

New demand areas are underused

EV chargers, generator hookups and solar-ready panels are growing searches, yet many electricians never build dedicated campaigns or pages for them.

What we measure

Numbers that show real business, not just clicks

Cost per qualified quote request

Project work starts with a quote, so this shows how efficiently you fill the estimating pipeline.

Project jobs won from ads

Panel, rewiring and EV jobs are where margin lives and should be counted separately from service calls.

Emergency call cost

Emergency work can be profitable but costly to win, so it needs its own target.

Review growth per month

Reviews drive map pack position and trust in a category where safety matters.

What we fix

Common mistakes in electrician accounts

  • Paying for "electrician apprenticeship" and "electrician salary" searches from job seekers.
  • Mixing EV charger and emergency repair keywords in one ad group with one generic ad.
  • Hiding licence and insurance details at the bottom of the website.
  • Running Local Services Ads with every job type switched on, including work the business does not do.
Rules worth knowing

Google requires advanced verification for advertisers in some local service categories, including electricians, and Local Services Ads require licence and background checks before ads can run.

FAQ

Questions electricians ask us

Still have a question? Talk to our team and get a straight answer.

Talk to a specialist

Should electricians advertise EV charger installation separately?

Yes. People searching for charger installation have a clear project in mind and often a budget ready. A dedicated campaign and page usually converts better than a general electrician ad.

How do you filter out job seekers and DIY searches?

We build negative keyword lists for jobs, training, salaries, parts and how-to searches, then review search terms every week to keep adding to them.

Do electricians need a new website to run ads?

Not always. A focused landing page per service is often enough to start. If the current site is slow or hides trust signals, we will recommend fixing that first.
