Mildura
Google Ads in Mildura for businesses whose customers live across Sunraysia, over the border in NSW and among visitors planning a trip.
Google Ads
Rock Solid Marketing runs Google Ads for Mildura businesses, aimed at the towns your customers actually live in, on both sides of the Murray. Your current ads might target a 50 km circle, paying for clicks from places you never deliver to while missing customers in Wentworth and Buronga because a setting stops at the state line.
We set location targeting town by town, schedule ads for the hours you can answer the phone, and reach visitors searching before they arrive. Your account manager meets you in Mildura, while our Google Ads Specialist, Callen Mowatt, builds and tunes the campaigns.
Partnership plans start from $4,500 + GST a month, and ad spend is paid straight to Google. If your Google Business Profile will bring more calls than ads right now, we’ll tell you before we quote.

How we run it
Sunraysia is a small market spread over a big area, so every setting is chosen for where your customers really are.
We target the towns you serve by name, from Red Cliffs and Irymple to Wentworth, Buronga and Dareton, instead of a circle that misses some and wastes money on others.
Call ads run when someone can answer, and campaigns lift before your busy season, whether that is harvest, school holidays or the tourist peak.
People planning a trip to Mildura search from Melbourne, Adelaide and beyond. Tourism and hospitality campaigns can reach them while they plan.
Callen reads the search terms report and adds negative keywords, so you stop paying for job seekers, DIY searches and towns you don’t serve.
Each campaign lands on a page with your offer, your service area and your phone number near the top, edited by our web team.
We track calls and forms as conversions, so your monthly report shows enquiries from each campaign, not just clicks.

Lindsay BuckleyDigital MastermindSydney NSWHow it works
Every partnership starts with a strategy, then runs month by month with one plan and one point of contact.
A free 30-minute call about your business, your goals and whether a partnership is the right fit.
We get to know your goals, customers, challenges and opportunities, then give you a practical marketing roadmap.
Your account manager runs the plan each month across the channels it needs, from social media and SEO to email and press releases.
A monthly meeting by phone or visit, with a HubSpot dashboard that shows what the work is achieving.
How it starts
We start with a free discovery call or a meeting at our Deakin Avenue office. We look at where your customers live, when they buy and what your current ads spend. Then we review the account, the tracking and the landing pages before spending more.
You approve every ad before it runs. Each month Callen reviews the search terms and budgets, and your account manager walks you through the report in Mildura or by phone.
Ads that reach the people who can actually buy from you.
In every plan
Ad spend is paid to Google on top of the plan fee. Conversion tracking set-up and new landing pages are priced to the job.
Plans
Every plan includes Google Ads management, design, reporting and a dedicated account manager. Ad spend is paid to Google.

Pardon us for asking such an obvious question, but: what’s the difference between paid search and organic search when it comes to Google? Of course one you pay for and the other you don’t – that’s in the names. But beyond that, how else are they different? How do they work, and most importantly: which

All FAQsOur Google Ads management sits in partnership plans from $4,500 + GST a month for 28 hours, with Standard at $5,500 + GST and Advanced at $7,500 + GST a month. Ad spend is paid to Google on top and set by you. A one-off Google Ads audit is billed at $175 + GST an hour.
Yes. Google Ads location targeting works by town, postcode or radius, and it doesn’t stop at state borders. We can include Wentworth, Buronga, Dareton and other NSW towns you serve, and exclude places you don’t, so your budget follows your real customers.
They can be, because fewer businesses advertise, so clicks can cost less than in a city. The catch is that fewer people search, so budgets must be focused on your best services and towns. We’ll tell you honestly if your market is too small for ads to pay.
Callen Mowatt, our Google Ads Specialist, builds and tunes the campaigns from the Gold Coast and often travels to meet clients. Your account manager is in our Mildura office, where you can meet by booking, and joins you for the monthly review.
Yes. Campaigns can target people in other cities who search for things to do, places to stay or places to eat in Mildura. Timing these before school holidays and events helps tourism and hospitality businesses get booked ahead.
If your ads already bring steady enquiries at a cost you’re happy with, keep going. Bring in help when costs climb, enquiries slow down or you’re unsure the targeting is right. A one-off audit at $175 + GST an hour is a cheaper way to check first.
No, our partnership plans have no lock-in contracts. Your Google Ads account stays in your business’s name, so you keep the campaigns, history and audiences if you leave.
Let’s start by scheduling a free discovery call so we can get to know each other and see if we’re a good fit for your marketing needs.
