SEO Review from Nicole Lockerman
I cant recommend eMaximize enough. In just a couple of months, theyve taken our website from page 9 of Google all the way to page 1. The site now looks 10x better, and the ad campaign they curated and launched has already delivered a strong return. Best of all, I can reach Max directly anytimeyes, even when hes on vacation in San Diego. There are no Out of Office auto-replies or layers of account managers. We hired Max, and we get Max.
Digital Marketing Review from Mike McKinnon
We run the top Mercury Insurance agency in California. eMaximize handles all of our digital marketing – web, seo, ppc, social & more. They have made significant improvements in our customer lead generation and we are seeing a consistency we have not seen in many years. They are extremely knowledgeable, creative and fun to work with. I highly recommend eMaximize to any business looking to increase revenue.
Digital Marketing Review from Cory Shakarian
We worked with eMaximize to boost our digital marketing and websites. eMaximize came through many times for us. Their experience and knowledge go above and beyond. I wouldn't go anywhere else when it comes to digital marketing and ways to drive business in today's world. Max and his team advise and more importantly execute across a full spectrum of business needs.

This is their passion and it reflects in the impact and growth they are able to achieve for their clients. We refer many businesses over to the team with full confidence they will realize incredible value.
Small Business Review from Morgan Snyder
I needed help creating a strategy around my own digital marketing and immediately went to McCain and SFC. Obviously there are several place I could have gone to here in the SLC area. It just made sense to go to the person who not only had the track record but in the past had always been a great resource for digital marketing. It was clear after a few calls that I had made the right choice.

Even though I hadn’t purchased any services, Ashley has already gone above and beyond to support me and my small business. From the start, she took the time to truly understand my goals and offered thoughtful, personalized guidance. Her insight and advice helped me find clarity and confidence in the direction I should be taking with my marketing, even though that direction was not working with her team, yet. It’s very clear she genuinely cares about helping businesses of all sizes succeed; not just making a sale. I’m sincerely grateful for her honesty, expertise, and the supportive partnership she’s extended from day one.

Susan T's Review Sourced from Google
It was a pleasure working with PUREi on a new Catalog Design. What seemed like a daunting task (data to design), ended up being an enjoyable experience.I’m an Art Director for a company that manufactures thousands of products. We were searching for a Design Agency with database-to-design integration. After viewing the Catalog Design samples on the PUREi website (along with other Design, Video and Photography samples), I had no doubt that the finished product would look beautiful.From start to finish, the project went smoothly. Everyone at PUREi is a pleasure to work with; and using Trackfront, their project tracking tools, made workflow, communications, and approvals a breeze.In addition to being knowledgeable and communicative, their creative and technical staff, Sarah and Ben, did an outstanding job, delivering a well-organized and beautifully designed Catalog.I highly recommend PUREi for Catalog Design and all of your Creative and Marketing needs.
Aaron Cooper's Review Sourced from Google
My Institute created a collection of 16 short videos as part of a parent education project. I was initially reluctant to hire a "small town" production company with prices far more reasonable than the big city bids we received. But my expectations were exceeded in every way. Purei was so professional all across the board: production, editing, directing the actors--in every way they were superb (and I'm a very tough customer to please LOL). We were working during the constraints of the pandemic and they moved things forward beautifully and sensitively. I cannot sing their praises enough, and am keeping my fingers crossed that my organization will find the funds to do another project so I can use purei once again.
Bill Hetrick's Review Sourced from Google
I've worked with PUREi at two different companies and have been impressed with both the quality of work and the value.

Tim Sekosky's Review Sourced from Google
I’ve had the pleasure of working withNo Boundaries Marketing for several years and believe good work should be recognized 😀If you are looking for a marketing group that provides excellent SEO I would like to pass on my personal recommendations.I have found Chris “The Architect”to be a good listener that has always been pleasant to work with and works hard to dig deep to understand the needs of your business. As a small business owner, this is important!Along these lines, he has also been very personable and easy to work with. I can say the same for his team as they have been driven to accomplish goals and objectives set by their leader.Having an SEO company in your business tool box is an excellent move! It doesn’t have to be painful. They are pleasant organization, and I hope you will find them as gratifying as I did.Best wishes and best of success!
Breakthrough Real Estate & Property Management's Review Sourced from Google
Well Chris might be a nice guy, the rest of his staff is a revolving door, they take days to get back to you pertaining to updates, if they get back to you at all. When I canceled their services because they didn't get back to me, and they didn't perform the updates that they told me they would do, they then shut off my Google ad without ever telling me. The Google ad that I pay the budget for, and after paying a monthly fee for their services for those ads. The fact they didn't even tell me, cost our business potentially thousands of dollars. As much as his attitude might be great, they burned my company, and we may never come back. Be very careful.

I had a great experience working with Makeshark on the redesign of my company's website. I am quite pleased with the results. They listened to what I had to say, answered my questions, were very responsive and got the new website up and running quickly. They also did a great job of matching color on the website with the color of my logo. I like the personal attention they gave to my website, which is much different from the way I felt with the company that had designed and maintained my site before I switched to Makeshark. And they are much more affordable than the company I had been using. I wish I had known about Makeshark years ago!

Robinett Consulting's Review Sourced from Google
I had been with another marketing company and just never got results. Philip and his team got our site migrated and working very quickly. The shocker was how much hacking was done on our site, which is embarrassing as an IT security company. Philip and his team are responsive, professional, and provide a great service!!! I have referred Elixir Creative to many clients of my own.You will find fair pricing, reasonable timelines, and good communication from Elixir. This has been my experience and the experience of every client I have referred. The quality of the work is top tier without a doubt. The customer service is great!No company is perfect, and no one is perfect. What sets Elixir Creative apart is that they will make it right when things go bump, and are very responsive to do so.

I’ve had an excellent experience working with Eagle Media, the SEO company managing Pharaoh’s Transportation. From the beginning, their team has been professional, knowledgeable, and truly results-driven.They took the time to understand our limousine and black car business, our target market in Milwaukee, and our growth goals. Their SEO strategy has significantly improved our online visibility, search rankings, and overall website performance.What I appreciate most is their transparency, communication, and commitment to long-term success—not just quick fixes. They consistently provide updates, insights, and strategic recommendations that help us stay ahead of competitors.If you’re looking for a reliable and professional SEO partner that genuinely cares about your business growth, I highly recommend Eagle Media.
William Taylor's Review Sourced from Google
When I launched my company two years ago, I was looking for SEO that would be able to bring my business to the top of search results. Eagles Media was the SEO of a company that I used and that company ranked in the top of their industry.A little over two years later, we are ranking with the top companies in our industry on the first page.Rankings in Google search engines is not automatic. It takes time it takes patience.The leaders of the company met with me often, ran reports and discussed industry standards, and felt like a partner, and still feels like a partner in my industry and my business.They have a great group of talented individuals that will be go beyond to make sure your business is successful.This group is good at what they do give him a try.

Corrine Oppelt's Review Sourced from Google
Valerie took time out of her day to come directly to my mom's home and also our place of work to debrief and help with our online presence in our small dog grooming business. She did an amazing job explaining everything in simple terms, and we even laughed while doing the work. Highly recommend this very educated woman.
Laura McCoy's Review Sourced from Google
The value I received in the time I spent with Valerie goes far beyond what I expected and certainly beyond what I paid! She has such an easy-going and friendly demeanor but at the same time is no-nonsense and efficient and effective. We met to talk about creating trailers for my social media and she gave me respectful but tough insight into editing my website I would never have on my own. At 62, I don't have the skills I need to cover the digital landscape necessary to advance my cause. But Valerie DOES, and then some! It was only days before my very professional trailer was completed, and her communication throughout the process was remarkable. I cannot say enough!
Ashley Bushart's Review Sourced from Google
Valerie with Missouri Market Boss is amazing to work with. She is incredibly smart, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. She takes the time to explain things clearly and genuinely cares about her clients’ success. Highly recommend working with her!

Keith Perez (DrinkWepa)'s Review Sourced from Google
I can’t recommend Smart Clicks by Digital Ivan enough! I was already great at running my golf cart rental business, but I wasn’t getting the visibility I needed. Ivan took my words literally and made my money work for me. He built clarity, trust, and visibility that actually sticks — no gimmicks, no fluff. From Google Ads that finally deliver results to strategies that attract high-quality customers, Ivan transformed how people find and book with me. Thanks to him, my carts are busier than ever and I’m seeing real growth every single week. If you’re good at what you do but aren’t getting noticed, Ivan is the one to call!

Don’t let the name fool you :) Marketing Sux is fantastic! We hired them for a major rebrand and a new website. We are still in the thick of the process, but the journey so far has been seamless. They are professional, attentive, and full of great ideas. Looking forward to cross the finish line with them soon!
Elise Iafrate's Review Sourced from Google
Adam and Greg at Marketing Sux have far surpassed my expectations. I stumbled upon their company somewhat unexpectedly and am so glad I took the chance on them. They have provided far more than just building a beautiful website and logo. They have brainstormed with me and given solicited business guidance as well as conducted educated research on my industry and ongoing support while always being kind, patient, responsive, communicative, prompt and very creative. I cannot recommend them enough. If you're searching for some or a lot of marketing assistance, HIRE THEM.
Marisa Prevatt's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Marketing Sux has been an excellent experience. Greg, our account contact, communicates clearly and keeps us in the loop every step of the way, and Adam and the team have done great work with our Google Ads and SEO. They've also optimized our website for SEO and user experience. What really stands out is how they use their tools to show us performance and ROI. Highly recommend!

It’s very refreshing to see a company who pays attention to detail, delivers and executes a plan, and actually does what it promises. Adam and his team are bar none the best in the business. They helped me separate myself from almost everyone that does what I do. Just amazing.

They took the time to truly understand my goals and delivered results that exceeded my expectations.

How to hire a PPC company in the USA
Am I actually ready to hire a PPC agency, or am I just reacting to a slow quarter?
You're ready to hire a US pay-per-click agency when you have a defined monthly ad budget, a tracked conversion event, and a defined customer acquisition cost target.
Most businesses that hire too early share the same profile: pressure to grow revenue, no baseline conversion data, and a vague sense that Google Ads should be doing more, which stems from anxiety.
Before considering how to outsource PPC management, confirm you have all four of the following:
- A monthly ad budget of at least $3,000 that won't be cut mid-campaign if results take 6 to 8 weeks to materialize
- Google Analytics 4 or a comparable platform with at least one conversion event firing correctly
- A defined target CPA (cost per acquisition) or ROAS (return on ad spend), even if it’s a rough one
- A landing page that has been tested with organic or direct traffic and produces at least some conversions
If you're missing two or more of these, it’s likely you need 60 days of setup work before you need PPC services in the USA.
What kind of budgets do companies typically allocate for these services?
On average, companies allocate around $14,000 per month for PPC advertising. Depending on how complex the campaigns are and how hands-on the agency needs to be, budgets can range:
- Under $100: 3.0% of companies
- $100-$500: 12.1% of companies
- $500-$1,000: 15.2% of companies
- $1,000-$3,000: 21.2% of companies
- $3,000-$5,000: 12.1% of companies
- $5,000-$8,000: 15.2% of companies
- $8,000-$11,000: 9.1% of companies
- $11,000-$15,000: 7.6% of companies
- Over $15,000: 4.5% of companies
-content.jpg)
Overall, companies are investing in search ads the most, with spending in the US being on track to top $140.06 billion by 2025.
How do I evaluate PPC agencies in the US if I don't have deep expertise?
You don't need to know PPC to evaluate a PPC agency; you need to know whether they can translate campaign decisions into business outcomes you already understand, like cost per lead, revenue per channel, and payback period.
You can test for business fluency, not just technical skill, with these questions:
- "What's a realistic CPA for a business like mine in the first 90 days?" A confident answer with a range and the assumptions behind it signals experience.
- "Walk me through a campaign you restructured, and why did you land on that decision?" You're evaluating whether they can explain the logic clearly to a non-expert. If you can't follow it, your monthly reviews will be the same.
- "How do you report results to clients who aren't PPC experts?" The answer should describe a reporting format built around business metrics (leads, revenue, ROAS).
- "What would cause you to recommend we pause spending entirely?" Agencies that can answer this clearly are protecting your budget.
If an agency makes you feel like you need to study up before the next call, that's a service failure, not a knowledge gap on your side.
How do I shortlist PPC agencies in the USA without spending three weeks evaluating the wrong ones?
When evaluating providers of PPC services in the USA, start by filtering first on three non-negotiable criteria: industry experience, minimum spend threshold, and platform specialization.
Most buyers shortlist backwards: they read agency websites, watch sizzle reels, and then discover in the proposal call that the agency's minimum spend is double their budget. Reverse the order.
Run your shortlist in this sequence:
- Filter by spend compatibility. Most established US pay-per-click agencies have a minimum monthly ad spend of $5,000-$10,000. Confirm this before the first call.
- Filter by vertical. An agency specializing in financial services PPC, for example, operates differently from one focused on eCommerce or general B2B lead generation. The bidding logic, conversion windows, compliance requirements, and attribution models are not interchangeable.
- Filter by platform. If 70% of your addressable market is on Google Search, an agency whose primary case studies are Meta campaigns is not a fit, regardless of how strong their creative team is.
Evaluate three agencies maximum. Decision fatigue sets in, and the best agency often loses to the most polished presenter.
Should I start with a pilot project or commit to a longer engagement upfront?
It’s advisable to start with a 90-day pilot because PPC campaigns require at least 4 to 6 weeks of machine learning and bid optimization before performance data is statisticallymeaningful.
A single month is too short to evaluate a PPC company in the USA fairly. Google's Smart Bidding algorithms, according to Google's own documentation, require a minimum of 30-50 conversions in the learning window to exit "learning mode" and optimize effectively. Most industries don't hit that threshold in 30 days.
Apropos that, your pilot should be structured to protect both parties:
- 60-90 day minimum: Long enough to exit the learning phase and see real bidding optimization, short enough to cut losses if the relationship isn't working.
- Defined success metrics agreed upfront: Not "we'll assess after 90 days" but specific targets, e.g., CPA below $X, conversion volume above Y per month.
- No locked accounts: The ad account operates under your name from day one, with the agency operating as a manager, not an owner.
- Month 2 check-in: A formal mid-pilot review where both sides assess trajectory and flag issues before they compound.
How do I know when to switch agencies versus giving them more time?
Switch to another US PPC agency when you see three consecutive months of flat or declining performance with no documented strategic adjustment. Don’t make a rash decision when you see a single bad month or a slow start during the learning phase.
The most expensive mistake in PPC is switching agencies too early, right before campaigns exit the learning phase and start compounding. The second most expensive mistake is staying too long out of inertia.
The following table shows the key differences between a struggling agency that still has a path forward and one you should have replaced already.
| Give Them More Time | Start the Switch Process |
| Performance is flat but the agency has a documented A/B test or bid strategy change in motion | Three months of flat ROAS with no documented strategy change |
| You're in a competitive period (Q4, product launch) that legitimately distorts benchmarks | You're receiving reports but no proactive recommendations |
| The agency identified the performance issue before you did and brought a plan | The agency explains poor performance but doesn't own it or propose a fix |
| You've had fewer than 60 days of real (post-learning) campaign data | You've discovered undisclosed fees or unauthorized account structure changes |

7 FAQs About PPC Agencies in the US
What services does a pay per click agency in the US provide?
Pay per click agencies in the US offer a full spectrum of specialized services that integrate paid media into the broader marketing and revenue strategy and enable businesses to acquire more customers and grow demand on targeted channels.
Guided by data to make spend decisions, eliminate waste, and maximize return on investment (ROI), the role of these specialists is to make each advertising dollar accountable.
As part of its portfolio, a PPC agency provides campaign planning, keyword research, ad creation, copywriting, bid management, budget allocation, A/B testing, and performance tracking.
Professional PPC services are greatly sought after, as the majority of companies (60%) outsource PPC managementto agencies, while 20% work with freelancers, and only one in five businesses maintains an in-house paid media team.
How much does a pay-per-click agency charge in the US?
PPC companies in the US typically charge from $100 to $150 per hour. In addition to hourly-based models, these agencies operate on the following pricing models:
- Fixed monthly fee or a subscription: Ranges from $1,500 to $10,000, depending on the campaign size and scope
- Percentage of ad spend: Typically falls between 10-30%, with the percentage often decreasing as ad spend increases
- Performance-based pricing: Payment is tied to results, such as the number of leads or conversions generated
- Project-based pricing: Entails a one-time fee for a specific project, unaffected by ad spend
Predominantly, agencies price their services based on a % of monthly ad spend, with over 50% of PPC companies using this model as their primary. Following closely at 33%-35% are agencies charging a flat monthly fee.
What do US pay-per-click agencies charge that most buyers don't expect?
Setup fees, creative production, tracking implementation, and tool costs rarely appear in the proposal. Here’s what to expect:
| Add-on | Typical range |
| One-time setup fee | $500 – $2,500 |
| Conversion tracking setup | $300 – $1,500 |
| Ad creative production | $300 – $1,500/month |
| Tool subscriptions | $100 – $500/month |
| Early termination fee | 1 - 3 months retainer |
Before signing, ask for a sample first invoice from a client at your scope level.
How do I know if I'm hiring the right pay per click company in the US for my budget?
Most PPC agencies have an effective minimum. Below roughly $3,000 in monthly ad spend, there is not enough data volume for the bidding algorithm to optimize, and not enough margin for the agency to staff the account with anyone senior. If an agency is willing to take any budget without flagging this, that is worth noting.
Budget fit also affects how you should think about pricing. An agency charging a percentage of ad spend earns more when you spend more. Considering that, at lower budgets, misalignment is manageable, but above $20,000 a month, it becomes a real incentive problem.
Before signing, ask directly how their fee structure changes as your spend scales.
What is a realistic timeline to see results from a PPC agency, and what should I expect week by week?
A well-run PPC engagement should show directional movement in cost-per-conversion within three months.
Here is what the agency should be delivering at each stage:
- Days 1 to 30: Conversion tracking confirmed, campaign structure built, baseline CPA or ROAS established, and a documented hypothesis about what will move performance and why.
- Days 30 to 60: Active testing underway with ad copy variants, audience segments, and match type adjustments. You should be able to see what is being tested and what the agency expects to learn from it.
- Days 60 to 90: Early performance data available. The agency should be able to tell you what did/didn’t work and what changes are planned for the strategy going forward.
How can I tell if my current PPC strategy is underperforming before I hire anyone?
Check these five things before you brief a single agency:
- Conversion tracking is recording the wrong events. If your campaigns are optimizing toward page views or session starts instead of form fills, calls, or purchases, every performance number in your account is built on a bad signal.
- Your search terms report is full of irrelevant queries. If you are paying for clicks from searches that have nothing to do with what you sell, your negative keyword strategy is either absent or neglected.
- Cost per conversion has been climbing with no change in targeting. Gradual CPA increases without a plausible explanation usually mean the account has not been actively managed; automated bidding running on its own is not optimization.
- Your best-performing campaigns have never been tested. If ad copy, landing pages, and audience segments have been static for more than 90 days, the performance is not being optimized; it is merely running.
- You have no visibility into which campaigns are driving revenue. If your reporting stops at leads or clicks and does not connect to closed business, you cannot tell what is working.
What are the red flags when evaluating PPC agencies in the US?
Here are some common warning signs to watch out for in PPC agencies in the US:
- They guarantee specific results. PPC runs on an auction. No one controls what competitors bid, how the algorithm weights signals, or how your landing page converts.
- Their reporting lives in a proprietary dashboard you cannot export. If your performance data only exists inside their platform, you own nothing when the relationship ends.
- They have never worked in your vertical. Industry context affects keyword intent, competitor behavior, and conversion patterns. Specialized sectors often require tailored approaches, such as dedicated PPC strategies for law firms. An agency learning your space on your budget is a real cost.
- They push to increase the budget before the current spending is profitable. Scaling an unprofitable account spends more money at the same losing rate.
