Are Local Services Ads the same as regular Google Ads?+
No. Bosseo describes Local Services Ads as a separate placement that can appear above regular ads and the map, with pay-per-lead pricing rather than pay-per-click pricing. The applicable profile, eligibility, ranking, and billing rules should be confirmed for your firm before launch.
Does Glocester’s population show how many leads my firm will receive?+
No. The 2020–2024 ACS estimates Glocester’s population at 10,221, with a margin of error of 24. That is geographic and demographic context only. It does not establish search demand, competition, inquiries, cases, or revenue.
Can Bosseo target Glocester separately from Providence County?+
Bosseo’s public page describes category and geography targeting, but the exact settings available for your profile and the coverage you should choose require review. Ask for a location-specific assessment that keeps Glocester, Providence County, and Rhode Island distinct.
What does Google Verified involve?+
Google’s checks vary by practice category and account; review the current identity, licensing, insurance and business-verification requirements that apply to your firm. Your firm should confirm the current requirements and provide accurate documentation before representing itself as screened.
How are wrong or unsuitable leads handled?+
Bosseo says it reviews junk leads such as wrong numbers, solicitors, spam, out-of-area contacts, and wrong-practice-area inquiries. Your firm should keep a clear record of why a lead is unsuitable and ask how reviews and any resulting credits are handled.
What should we measure after launch?+
Measure more than lead count. Agree on definitions for qualified inquiry, consultation, rejected contact, flagged lead, and signed matter. Bosseo describes lead-to-case tracking and an ROI Dashboard; confirm which fields and outcomes will be available for your firm and review them by matter type and geography.
