How much does DG Agency cost for a Tampa Bay contractor?

Retainers start at $5,000 a month for contractors doing $1M or more a year. Ad spend is separate and goes straight to Google or Yelp, not to us. It's month to month, with no long contract. Website builds are a separate project and are not part of the retainer.

Can a Southern California agency run marketing for a Florida contractor?

Yes. LSA, Google Business Profile, Yelp and reviews are all run online, so we run Tampa Bay accounts remotely. You get every lead reviewed and rated weekly so Google credits the junk, and a monthly numbers call over Zoom. We don't have an office in Florida and we won't pretend to. The work doesn't need one.

What license does Google check for Florida contractors on Local Services Ads?

Google checks state business and owner licenses where local law requires them, and every owner passes a background check. Google's help pages don't name a Florida-specific license type. In practice that's your DBPR license, CC or RC for roofing, CA or RA for AC, CF or RF for plumbing, and EC for electrical.
