SEO and paid advertising case studies
Recognition, consideration and inquiries each ask something different of an ad. Explore our client work to see the business story, creative choices and purpose behind the campaign.
We created and managed Meta advertising for Dinosaur Roofing, supported by the website and brand we built for its launch. We refined the path from an ad to an inquiry, including forms, calls to action and the mobile experience.
Brand development began in January 2026. The website followed, and Google and Facebook campaigns were live by March 2. The team then refined forms, buttons, and the mobile experience. The team later shifted emphasis toward Meta and tested a more focused Google campaign.

A strong social campaign needs more than a boosted post. We connect the audience, creative, offer and response path around a specific business goal.
Define who the campaign should reach, where they live and what you want them to do. Choose an objective that matches the real business goal.
Build coordinated campaigns for the placements that fit your audience and creative. Keep the message recognizable from the feed to the landing page.
Use website forms, calls, messages or native lead forms when they fit the offer. Make the response path simple and realistic for your team to manage.
Turn real projects, people and customer problems into ads that look like your business. Write direct copy with a reason to stop, care and respond.
Reconnect with people who already visited key pages or engaged with the business, where platform rules and available audience size make that useful.
Compare meaningful creative and message variations, watch lead costs and quality, and refresh campaigns before attention fades.
The work, the fit and the tradeoffs
Facebook and Instagram ads reach people while they browse; they are not the same as a customer actively searching Google for a service. Creative, useful examples of your work and a clear offer need to earn attention.
We build campaigns around the customers and areas you can serve, using the targeting options available for the campaign. Platform rules and restricted categories can limit audience selection. An institution nearby is not evidence that we can target its employees or know who they are.
An in-platform lead form can reduce friction; a website destination gives customers more room to evaluate the service. We weigh that tradeoff with qualification needs and how quickly your team can respond.
We test messages and creative, then review inquiry quality alongside campaign costs. A cheap form submission is not necessarily a qualified customer. Paid Meta campaign management is distinct from an ongoing organic social posting service.
Start with the service, customer problem, offer and real examples you have permission to show. Approved photos, stories and clear limitations make stronger material than unsupported claims.
Your response process matters. Before launch, agree who receives inquiries, what qualifies a good lead and how follow-up outcomes will inform the campaign.

Real people.Meet Heart City Marketing
We’re a Georgia-based marketing team built around real relationships. For your Ames business, that means a remote partnership with people who get to know what you do, who you serve, and what growth needs to look like.
Strategy, design, search, and advertising belong in the same conversation. So do the questions that matter to you: what’s working, what needs attention, and what happens next.
Meet your next marketing teamOur process
Choose who you want to reach and what you want them to understand or do. Gather the real people, projects, photos and details that can make the offer believable.
Develop the message and visuals for Facebook and Instagram. Connect the ad to an appropriate contact route or landing page, and agree on how the campaign will be evaluated.
Review audience response and campaign activity alongside your feedback. Improve the message, creative or destination so the next round reflects what you've learned.
Good questions. Straight answers.
Something else on your mind?
That’s what the conversation is for.
Show the product choice and what the customer receives. Oak Lane Candle Co. describes vessel and three-to-five-scent choices and says the finished candle needs 1.5 to 2 hours before pickup and 24 hours before burning. Keep your own published preparation and pickup terms beside the action.
State that groups of five or more must contact the operator directly to reserve. Link to the current reservation path and keep the group condition with the offer.
Decide what a useful response means for the offer, then review inquiries, bookings or purchases alongside spend and the follow-up your team completes. Keep social results separate from search activity so the next decision is clear.
