Google Ads or Facebook Ads — Which Do I Need?

Short answer: it depends on your goals.
Below we explain the simplest way to choose — and how a smart mix often wins for established local businesses.

If your goal is fast, high-intent leads → Google Ads

For leads-based, emergency services (plumbing, HVAC, towing, commercial auto glass, locksmiths, etc.), Google is usually the right place. People use Google when they have a problem that needs an immediate fix — they’re searching for the service right now and are ready to act. That search intent makes Google Search campaigns the most efficient way to capture real-time demand.

Quick tactical notes

  • Use Search campaigns with strong, local keywords and call extensions.

  • Consider call-only or click-to-call ads for mobile users who want help immediately.

  • Use location targeting and ad scheduling so you’re visible when people need you most.

  • Track phone calls and conversions so you know which keywords and ads actually create customers.


If you sell quality-of-life or visual projects → Facebook Ads

For home-focused, luxury, or lifestyle projects (new decks, patios, outdoor rooms, kitchen remodels), Facebook and Instagram excel — especially when great visuals drive interest. These platforms are excellent for showing finished projects, telling the owner’s story, and building desire before someone ever searches for your name.

Where Facebook shines

  • Brand awareness and local familiarity — in our opinion, Facebook is the best quality avenue for local brand campaigns.

  • Visual creative (photos, video before/after, carousel) to inspire prospects.

  • Lead ads and Messenger/Instagram DMs for easy contact capture.

  • Audience targeting: custom audiences, lookalikes, and interest/behaviour targeting for local homeowners.

  • Retargeting: show project photos to people who visited your site or engaged with your feed.


The best long-term approach: a managed mix of both

For mature local businesses, it’s rarely a one-or-the-other decision. A healthy combination of Google (for intent-driven leads) and Facebook (for awareness, consideration, and visual inspiration) is usually more than worthwhile — if both are managed well and given regular attention.

How the mix works

  • Google captures customers who are searching now.

  • Facebook warms up local audiences, lowers cost-per-contact over time, and keeps your name top-of-mind.

  • Retargeting across platforms turns Facebook browsers into Google searchers (and vice versa).

  • Use consistent tracking and reporting so you can measure cost-per-lead, lead quality, and ROI — then shift budget to what’s working.


A few practical next steps

  • If you run an emergency service: start with Google Search + call tracking and a modest Facebook presence for reputation and social proof.

  • If you sell visually driven home services: invest in Facebook/Instagram creative and lead ads, and layer in Google for high-intent searches (e.g., “deck builder near me”).

  • For established businesses: run both, test creative and audiences, and review performance weekly/monthly.

HI MY NAME IS

Shane Hunter

(Intern Software Developer*)

Hi! I’m Shane, a college student currently working toward my bachelor’s degree in Computer Science. I’m passionate about building practical, user-friendly technology, and at Heart City, I contribute to web app development—bringing ideas to life through clean, functional code. I love seeing how small improvements can make a big impact, and I’m always learning something new along the way. Outside of work and school, you’ll usually find me outdoors, whether it’s fishing, camping, or planning my next travel adventure. Being active and staying curious are a big part of who I am, both in and out of tech

HI MY NAME IS

Ryleigh Palmer

(Sales*)

Hi! I’m Ryleigh, and I grew up in a small town just outside of Athens, Georgia. I’ve called Middle Georgia home for the past three years, where I work full-time as a park ranger with the National Park Service—helping protect natural spaces and connect people with the outdoors. At Heart City Marketing, I lead sales, partnering with local businesses to match them with the right tools and creative strategies to grow. I’ve always had a heart for small towns and strong communities, and being part of Heart City Marketing lets me support the kind of places that shaped me. When I’m not working, I’m usually out on a trail, hanging with my dog, or catching up on a good podcast.

Lauren McMurray

(Marketing Assistant*)

Hi! I’m Lauren, and I’ve called Georgia home my whole life. After starting school at Georgia College & State University, I settled in Middle Georgia about four years ago. At Heart City, I lead community outreach and help guide the creative direction behind our branding and website design. I’ve always loved connecting with people, but it was watching my dad grow a small business—without any marketing support that really ignited my passion for helping other entrepreneurs share their stories. When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me in the kitchen baking, tending to my patio jungle, or out walking my dog.

HI MY NAME IS

Grace Cohan

(Marketing Assistant*)

Hi, I’m Grace—your go-to social media guru, Canva enthusiast, and drone pilot with a serious eye for the perfect shot. I grew up in the small town of Pittsfield, MA, and made my way down south to earn my BA in Communication, Media, and Culture from the University of Tampa. I’m especially passionate about helping small businesses grow and connect with their communities through smart, heartfelt marketing. When I’m not setting up email campaigns, designing banners, or jumping into whatever creative project’s up next, you can probably find me binge-watching the newest reality TV show or soaking up the sun by the pool. Fun fact: I’m an identical twin!
