Looking to hire someone to run a google ad campaign, is this an attainable goal?
Posted by on November 3, 2025 at 2:40 pmI’ve been thinking about hiring someone to run a google ad campaign for me because I’ve tried doing it on my own and it’s not really working.
I have a website & google business page for a small business I run on the side & I want to advertise for hoarder house Cleanout/deep clean/demo service (like the TLC TV show).
Would 35/day be enough to get me 1-2 real conversions per month?
Top of page bigs range for some of the keywords like ‘hoarder cleanup’ and ‘hoarder cleanup service’ etc go from $5 to $20, and some to $6 to $32. I’d get a landing page made specifically for the service provider if needed. We currently have 241 google reviews and a website made.Is there anywhere else I should look to hire someone to run an ad campaign for me besides Upwork?
Any insight on this would be appreciated. I’m not good with google ads 2025.

$35/day ($1,050/month) is attainable for 1-2 conversions if you execute properly, but you’re working with thin margins and zero room for error. At $10-15 average CPC for quality hoarder cleanup keywords, you’ll get roughly 70-105 clicks per month. If your landing page converts at 3-5% (realistic for this service with strong urgency/emotion triggers), you’re looking at 2-5 leads per month. So yes, 1-2 is achievable.
Here’s the reality check: Your 241 Google reviews are a massive asset that most agencies would leverage. For hoarder cleanup, conversion rate depends entirely on how your landing page handles the emotional sensitivity – people searching this are often embarrassed or overwhelmed. Your page needs empathy-driven copy, before/after photos, and clear next steps. Without that, even great ad traffic converts at under 2% and you’ll struggle to hit your goals.
On hiring: At $35/day budget, most quality agencies won’t take you on because management fees ($500-1000/month minimum) would eat your ad budget. You’d pay more for management than for actual clicks. Better approach: Spend 2-3 hours learning campaign setup on YouTube, focus on exact match keywords only (“hoarder cleanup [your city]”, “hoarding cleanup service near me”), write ad copy that acknowledges the sensitivity, and send traffic to a dedicated landing page.
Your real competitive advantage is those 241 reviews – make sure they’re prominently displayed on your landing page and in your ad extensions. For this budget level, DIY with tight keyword focus will outperform hiring someone. If you must hire, look for a freelancer on r/forhire willing to do setup-only (not ongoing management) for a flat $300-500.

Doable, but you need solid tracking and tailored landing pages to maximize returns on a leaner budget. Localized headlines, before and after pics, reviews/case studies, contact CTAs, compelling copy speaking more to the emotional side of the outcome etc.

I am currently running these types of campaigns on a national level – DM and I can give you expected costs per leads, if you like what you see I can set them up for you in your account

I run ads in this exact space. Bid heavy on competitor terms. Test PMax. Test Form Fills vs phone call only landing pages (vs. both).
I think it should be doable, but your search keywords will be pretty pricey.

Sounds kinda fun. Your budget is really small, but I’d be willing to take you on at a fee that makes sense if we can record the onboarding and management meetings for me to post as marketing content for my agency.
It’ll be difficult to isolate hoarder clean up from normal cleaning services, but as long as you can sell to either kind of customer you’d have a pretty high probability of success
