FAQ: Marketing for Floor Coating Companies

How much should I spend on ads when starting out?
Most markets are competitive enough that $1,500–$2,500/month is the minimum to generate consistent lead flow from Google Ads. Below that, the data needed to optimize properly just doesn't accumulate fast enough. We'll give you a market-specific recommendation on your strategy call.
How long before I see results?
Most clients see their first leads within the first week of a Google Ads campaign going live. It typically takes 30–60 days to reach a consistent, optimized flow of leads.
Do I need a new website before running ads?
Not always — but your landing page experience matters enormously. If your current site is slow, unclear, or hard to navigate on mobile, it will hurt your results. We'll tell you honestly on the strategy call whether your existing site is ready for paid traffic.
Can you work with companies that are just starting out?
We work with coating companies at various stages. If you're brand new with no existing customer base, we'll give you an honest picture of what to expect and what investment level makes sense.
Do you lock clients into long-term contracts?
No. We operate on a month-to-month basis. We keep clients because our work delivers results — not because they're contractually stuck.
Do you work with coating companies outside the U.S.?
Currently, our focus is the U.S. market. If you're in Canada or another English-speaking market, reach out and we'll let you know if we can help.
