PPC that grows Sydney Businesses
Sydney is competitive – your PPC can’t be average. We build and run Google Ads, Bing Ads and YouTube campaigns for Sydney businesses that lower CPL, lift ROAS, and move the pipeline, not just clicks. Our Google Ads-certified team pairs sharp targeting with creative testing and CRO-driven landing pages, so every dollar works harder within your market. Most clients see efficiency gains within the first 90 days as wasted spend is cut and high-intent segments are scaled.
Based in Norwest, Sydney, we’ve managed over $115 million in ad spend for Australian businesses across retail, ecommerce, trades, professional services, and healthcare. We’re a Google Premier Partner, Semrush Certified Agency Partner, 100% Australian owned and operated, and an NSW Government registered supplier.
What success looks like

Amanda and Adriel conducting a PPC ad account audit.
When the Hornsby tradie searches on a mobile at 7:18 a.m., our ad shows the right message, extensions, and routes to a suburb-relevant landing page that loads fast and converts. When generic “how-to” searches surge, negatives and audiences keep your budget focused on buyers. And when PMax tries to spend like a drunken sailor, our guardrails and exclusions keep the CPA anchored.
For a Parramatta ecommerce brand, this means PMax stops bleeding budget on bottom-funnel branded terms while Search campaigns scale non-brand growth. For a North Sydney law firm, it’s call-only ads during business hours with suburb-level bid adjustments and lawyer-verified responsive copy. For a Chatswood medical practice, it’s tight negative lists blocking “bulk billing near me” so you only pay for private patients.

How we run winning PPC in Sydney

Anastasia checking a Google Shopping Feed API update with Mark
1. Account structure that mirrors intent
Single-intent ad groups, a clean match-type strategy, and keyword themes that align with the searcher stage (problem, solution, brand). PMax is ring-fenced with clear campaign-level exclusions and asset groups mapped to real product/ service clusters.
2. Targeting that finds buyers, not browsers
We blend first-party audiences, in-market, detailed demographics, and geo layers (CBD, Norwest, key postcodes). Negative lists are maintained weekly to keep tire-kickers out.
3. Creative & landing experiences that convert
Ad variants emphasise Sydney proof (local clients, suburbs serviced, time-to-quote). Every major test runs for a minimum learning period; winners roll forward. Landing pages are purpose-built, fast (<2.5s LCP), and message-matched to search intent.
4. Bidding & budget control
Target CPA/ROAS when data supports it; otherwise, start with Maximise Conversions with tCPA floors. Budgets flow to net new profitable segments, not just the cheapest clicks.
5. Measurement that decision-makers trust
Server-side tracking where possible, GA4 + enhanced conversions, call tracking, and lead quality feedback loops (MQL→SQL→Won) so we optimise for revenue, not just form fills. Every change is logged in a governance changelog.
Tools & platforms we use for Sydney PPC
Managing effective PPC campaigns requires the right technology stack. We use industry-leading platforms to ensure your campaigns are built on solid foundations:
- Google Ads Platform – Search, Shopping, Display, YouTube, Performance Max, and Discovery campaigns across the full Google ecosystem.
- Microsoft Advertising – Bing search and audience network campaigns to capture audiences beyond Google.
- Google Analytics 4 & GA360 – Advanced attribution modeling, conversion tracking, and audience building with our analytics specialists.
- Google Tag Manager – Server-side and client-side tracking implementation for accurate data capture and privacy compliance.

Sydney PPC market context
Understanding the Sydney competitive landscape helps us position your campaigns strategically. Here’s what matters in 2025:
- Average CPCs vary significantly by industry – Industry data shows Legal services ($35-80), Finance ($25-55), Healthcare ($18-40), Trades ($12-28), Ecommerce ($0.80-3.20) depending on product category.
- Mobile makes up 65-75% of Sydney search traffic for local services – Recent local SEO research confirms over 70% of mobile searches are related to local content, which is why mobile-first landing pages and click-to-call functionality are non-negotiable.
- Performance Max adoption has increased waste – We’ve audited 1000+ accounts and consistently find 30-45% of PMax spend goes to irrelevant placements without proper exclusions and brand protection.
- Sydney CBD commands premium positioning costs – Businesses targeting “near me” searches in the CBD typically pay 40-60% more than equivalent searches in outer suburbs like Penrith or Liverpool.
- Seasonal fluctuations affect all industries – December typically sees 30-50% CPC increases across retail and ecommerce as competition peaks before Christmas.
- Quality Score directly impacts profitability – Studies show that Sydney businesses with Quality Scores of 7+ typically pay 40% less per click than competitors with scores below 5, making ad relevance and landing page experience critical.
These market realities inform our strategic approach. Instead of simply competing on budget, we focus on better intent capture, tighter targeting, and superior conversion experiences that allow Sydney businesses to win profitably even in expensive markets.

Mini case studies and recent wins
For more in depth case studies and deep dives see our case study page.
Trades – Can’t Stop Decking (North Shore)
Problem: Paid search campaigns were wasting spend on generic keywords, driving a high cost-per-lead (CPL) of over $200 and too many unqualified enquiries.
Action: Restructured campaigns by creating suburb-level clusters, added a call-driven ad schedule, overhauled the negative keyword list, and launched tailored service-specific landing pages to improve relevance.
Outcome (60 days): Achieved a 48% reduction in CPL and a 71% increase in qualified inbound calls.

Ecommerce – Fitness Hero (Sydney & National)
Problem: Performance Max campaigns were cannibalising branded search terms, driving up acquisition costs and generating poor-quality leads.
Action: Introduced PMax brand exclusions, rebuilt the search structure to prioritise non-brand growth, implemented lead-quality scoring to filter low-value prospects, and optimised form friction to improve conversion efficiency.
Outcome (90 days): Achieved a 38% increase in sales-qualified leads (SQLs) and a 24% improvement in ROAS at a flat media spend.

PPC Agency FAQs
Here’s what we hear getting asked most days. Have any other questions feel free to reach out, we’re more than happy to help.
What is PPC advertising and how does it work?
PPC advertising (Pay-Per-Click) lets your business appear instantly on Google and other platforms. You only pay when someone clicks. For Sydney businesses, this means getting in front of the right people at the right time without waiting months for organic results.
How much does PPC cost in Sydney?
PPC costs in Sydney depend on industry competition and keywords, with clicks in finance or legal often higher than those in local service niches. Most clients start from $3,000/ month in media with management from $1,200/ month + GST, depending on competition and goals.
How soon will I see PPC results?
Efficiency gains usually show within 30-90 days, especially from waste reduction and better intent targeting.
Do you provide ongoing PPC management?
We continuously monitor and optimise your campaigns so your budget works harder daily. From keyword research to ad testing and reporting, our Sydney PPC specialists ensure performance keeps improving, not just maintaining.
Can you target specific Sydney suburbs?
Yes, our PPC campaigns can target individual Sydney suburbs. We use suburb clusters, geo-targeting, and tailored ad copy so your business connects with the right local audience at the right time.
Do you manage Performance Max campaigns?
Yes, with brand protection, placement exclusions, and a clear asset-group structure to prevent inflating low-quality conversions.
How do you report on PPC campaigns?
We provide clear, jargon-free reports focusing on Cost Per Lead (CPL), Return On Ad Spend (RoAS), and lead quality, not vanity metrics. You’ll also get monthly strategy calls and live dashboards so you always know what’s working and what we’ve improved.
Can PPC work with SEO and other marketing?
Yes, PPC works with SEO, social media, and content marketing. While SEO builds long-term growth, PPC provides instant visibility, making it a powerful complement to your broader digital strategy.
What’s the best PPC strategy for multi-location franchise businesses?
For multi-location franchises across Sydney, we implement location-group campaigns with suburb-level budget allocation, unified brand campaigns for broader awareness, and individual store landing pages integrated with Google Business Profiles. This approach prevents locations from competing against each other while ensuring fair budget distribution based on each location’s market potential rather than historical performance. We typically see 30-40% improvements in store visit tracking and more balanced lead distribution across locations within the first 90 days.
How do you handle PPC for high-competition home services like plumbing in Sydney?
High-competition home service sectors like plumbing require aggressive waste elimination and precision targeting. We implement day-parting to match your service availability, radius targeting around serviceable zones, “residential only” qualifiers in ad copy, and call extensions with tracking numbers. Our negative keyword lists are exhaustive, blocking competitor clicks from other trades researching pricing and emergency calls outside service hours. We also integrate with booking systems for instant calendar visibility. Clients typically see 50-60% reductions in wasted clicks and 40%+ increases in bookable leads within 60 days.
What PPC approach works for professional services targeting Sydney CBD?
Professional services targeting Sydney CBD face premium CPCs ($40-80 per click in legal verticals) and need hyper-focused strategies. We use phrase match keywords with tight intent signals, call-only ads during business hours, practice-area-specific landing pages, and comprehensive negative lists excluding DIY queries. Integration with your SEO strategy creates combined search dominance. Our CBD clients typically see CPL reductions of 40-50% while consultation booking rates increase 60%+ through better quality filtering and conversion path optimization.
How do you optimise ecommerce PPC to prevent Performance Max waste?
Ecommerce Performance Max campaigns often deliver “conversions” that are actually newsletter signups or low-value actions. We implement conversion value rules that properly weight purchase events, separate Shopping campaigns for brand protection, and dynamic remarketing with strategic attribution windows. Our product feed optimization and asset group structure prevent PMax from cannibalizing branded search while scaling non-brand growth. Clients see actual ROAS improvements of 2-3x when measuring revenue instead of all conversion actions, plus 20-30% increases in average order value.
What’s your PPC strategy for B2B companies with longer sales cycles?
B2B PPC requires a full-funnel approach. We separate top-of-funnel awareness (Display, YouTube, LinkedIn) from bottom-funnel conversion campaigns (Search, remarketing). Lead scoring integration ensures you only pay for MQLs that match your ideal customer profile. We track beyond form fills to SQL and Won stages, optimizing for revenue not just leads. Our B2B clients implement call tracking, CRM integration, and multi-touch attribution to measure true campaign contribution. Typical results include 40-60% improvements in lead quality scores and 30-50% reductions in cost per SQL within 90-120 days.
