Google Ads for Restaurants & Retail

For restaurants and retail businesses, search intent is immediate. Customers are looking for somewhere nearby, open now, and ready to serve them. At TradeScale, we specialize in Google Ads management for restaurants and retail businesses — including fast food, chain restaurants, mechanic shops, coffee shops, and brick-and-mortar retail stores.

We help you show up when customers are ready to visit, call, or buy — and turn local searches into real-world revenue.

Local Search That Drives Foot Traffic & Sales

Restaurants and retail operate on urgency, convenience, and visibility. Success in Google Ads depends on being present at the exact moment someone decides where to go next.

With over a decade of experience in search engine marketing, we build campaigns that:

  • Capture “near me” and location-based searches

  • Drive calls, directions, and walk-ins

  • Align ads with store hours and peak demand

  • Eliminate wasted spend from irrelevant searches

This is local search advertising built for foot traffic and fast decisions.

Who We Serve

We work with a wide range of restaurants and retail businesses, including:

  • Fast food and quick-service restaurants (QSR)

  • Casual and chain restaurants

  • Coffee shops and cafés

  • Auto repair and mechanic shops

  • Local retail stores and boutiques

Whether you operate a single location or multiple storefronts, our strategies adapt to your footprint and growth goals.

Our Google Ads Approach for Restaurants & Retail

1. High-Intent Local Keyword Strategy

We focus on “near me,” brand, category, and service-based searches — while blocking low-value traffic that doesn’t result in visits or purchases.

2. Location, Hours & Proximity Targeting

We align campaigns with store hours, proximity signals, and geographic targeting so ads appear when customers can actually act.

3. Conversion Tracking for Real-World Actions

We track calls, direction requests, and key engagement actions to optimize toward real customer intent — not just clicks.

4. Budget Control & Dayparting

We manage budgets by location and time of day, concentrating spend during peak hours to maximize return.

5. Ongoing Optimization & Scaling

We continuously refine search terms, bids, ads, and targeting — improving efficiency while expanding reach where performance proves out.
