What our customers say

Trusted across New Zealand

Jelly have literally doubled our business. We're getting at least 8 new leads a week off the website alone — and with their Google Ads and SEO on top, the phone doesn't stop. They rebuilt our brand and website from the ground up and the difference has been night and day. Couldn't recommend them more.
James
Wellington
Bloody good to work with. Sorted us out with a pricing plan and website that shows what we're about. Easy to work with and we're already seeing more jobs.
Shaun Brannigan
Wellington
Awesome to work with, really happy with the website Jelly Digital set up for us. Looks great and got us online looking professional. They took care of everything. Highly recommend them, made the whole process super easy.
Steve Clarke
Wellington
Best investment we've made in the business. Jelly built our website, got us ranking in Google, and set up our Facebook ads. We now get consistent work from the website every week. The team are easy to deal with and they actually understand trades businesses.
Rangi Ngata
Manukau, Auckland
Jelly set up our Google Ads and SEO and within the first month we had more enquiries than we could handle. Had to turn the ads off briefly while we caught up. Good problem to have. They also gave us really clear reporting so we always knew what we were getting for our money.
Craig Olsen
East Auckland
Our old website was embarrassing — we were doing great work but the site didn't reflect it. Jelly did a full rebrand and new website. Now when we send prospects to the site they actually call us back. The branding work in particular was brilliant — very professional.

What's the difference between Meta Ads and Google Ads for tradies?

Google Ads captures demand — people actively searching 'electrician Auckland' right now. Meta Ads creates demand — reaching homeowners in your area before they've started searching. Google Ads generates faster results; Meta Ads builds awareness and retargeting audiences over time. The most effective approach uses both, with Meta feeding warm audiences back into Google campaigns.

Should I do SEO or Google Ads first?

If you need leads now, start with Google Ads — it generates results within days. SEO takes 3–6 months to build momentum but the leads are free once you're ranking. The ideal approach is to run Google Ads while building your organic presence, then gradually reduce ad spend as SEO kicks in. We can help you plan both.

What results can I expect from Google Ads as a trades business?

Results vary by trade, location, and budget — but as a benchmark, most of our trades clients see a cost per lead of $30–80 NZD within the first 60 days. Emergency services (plumbers, electricians) tend to see faster results due to high search intent. We set clear expectations before starting and show you the numbers every month.

How much does Google Ads management cost?

Our Google Ads management starts from $500/month + GST. This covers campaign build, ongoing optimisation, monthly reporting, and regular communication. Ad spend is separate — you pay Google directly. We recommend a minimum of $1,000/month in ad spend to generate meaningful data and leads.

Can Google Ads work in smaller NZ cities and regional areas?

Yes. Google Ads works anywhere people are searching — and in smaller cities like Hamilton, Waikato, Whangarei, and regional NZ, cost per click is often lower than Auckland, meaning better returns on the same budget. We've run effective campaigns for trades businesses across New Zealand.

Do you need conversion tracking set up before running Google Ads?

Yes — we never launch a campaign without conversion tracking confirmed. We set up Google Tag Manager and configure conversion actions (form submissions, phone calls) so we know exactly what's generating leads and what isn't. Running Google Ads without tracking is flying blind.

What if I've tried Google Ads before and it didn't work?

Most trades businesses that have tried Google Ads without success were running broad match keywords, sending traffic to their homepage, or had no conversion tracking set up. These three issues account for the majority of wasted ad spend. We fix all three before spending a dollar — and we show you exactly what we're doing and why.

Do I own my Google Ads account?

Yes, always. Your Google Ads account is set up in your name and you have full access at all times. If you ever leave Jelly Digital, you take the account with you — including all historical data, campaign structure, and the learnings we've built. We don't hold accounts hostage.

Do you manage Google Ads for professional services?

Yes. Google Ads can be highly effective for professional services firms, particularly for city-based searches like 'accountant Auckland' or 'employment lawyer Wellington'. We set up conversion tracking from day one so you can see cost per lead, not just clicks. We also run regular search term reviews to make sure your ads are attracting the right clients.

How quickly will Google Ads generate leads?

Google Ads campaigns can start generating enquiries within days of launch. Most campaigns reach their optimal performance within 4–8 weeks as the algorithm learns which clicks convert best. We set up conversion tracking from day one so you can see exactly what your ad spend is producing.
