Google Ads Lead Tracking for Small Businesses
Before increasing Google Ads spend, a small business should know which leads came from ads and whether they became real opportunities.
Tag the source
Use a source field in your lead tracker. Even a manual field is better than guessing where inquiries came from.
Track quality, not just volume
A form submission is not always a good lead. Track urgency, budget, fit, and whether the prospect responded.
Close the loop
When a lead becomes a customer, mark the source and estimated value. This helps decide whether ad spend is working.
