Business info

BrightLedger Accounting is a small firm based in Victoria, offering tax planning, BAS lodgements, and business advisory services. With over 12 years of experience, they built trust through referrals but struggled to attract clients online. Their website had minimal visibility, and previous marketing efforts lacked structure. They partnered with Ads by Local to build a consistent digital lead pipeline and attract growth-focused small businesses in their area.

Challenges
  • No steady online inquiries
  • Website not converting visitors
  • Relying on word-of-mouth
  • No tracking for leads or ROI

AdsByLocal executed a 6-step digital growth plan tailored for local service success.

1 . Designed a Trust-Building Landing Page

Created a clean, professional page with local proof points, client testimonials, and service benefits — built to convert small business owners.

2 . Hyperlocal Ad Targeting

Focused ads on business hubs within a 10 km radius, targeting startup-heavy suburbs with higher demand for accounting help.

3 . Service-Based Campaign Segmentation

Split campaigns for business tax, GST services, and bookkeeping to match the exact search intent of prospects.

4 . Setup of Form & Call Tracking

Every lead was tracked via smart forms and dynamic phone numbers, giving the client complete clarity on ad performance

5 . Mobile & Office-Friendly Conversion Paths

Made it easy for busy business owners to call or request a consult directly from their phone or desktop — no friction.

6 . Continuous A/B Testing and Optimization

We tested landing headlines, CTA buttons, and ad copy weekly, fine-tuning performance and reducing cost per lead.
