Google Ads for B2B Manufacturers
Google Ads for B2B Manufacturers Who Want Quote Requests, Not Just Clicks
I manage Google Ads for manufacturers the way long sales cycles actually work — and I fix the leaks in your website, tracking, and visibility that keep ads from paying off.
✓ 17 years in manufacturing + 20 years in digital marketing ✓ Google Ads managed by a human, not handed to automation ✓ Built for long sales cycles and high-value quote requests
Not a generalist. Not an agency.
Most Google Ads Managers Stop at the Ad Account. I Don't.
17 years in manufacturing. 20 in digital marketing.
I'm not a marketer who learned about manufacturing from a blog. I've read tolerances, signed off on shop drawings, and sat through long sales cycles. When I look at your Google Ads, I look at them through the eyes of your buyers.
You work directly with me — every call, every report, every decision.
No account managers. No junior staff. No 80 clients. I work with a small number of manufacturers at a time. You deal with the person who actually knows your account.
When Google Ads underperforms, the problem isn't always the ad account.
Sometimes it's the landing page, the tracking setup, the message, or the places buyers search before they ever click an ad. I look at the whole path from search to quote request — not just the campaign dashboard.

What clients say
" Corey gives me up to date, thorough assessments of how we're doing — no sugar coating. I have seen a big spike in activity off our website and we're getting more calls from customers who could have only found us by doing a search. We're on the map now... Business is up 33%. We made the right move. "
Dan Miller
Operations Manager, OZ Lifting
" Corey listens to your product's story and mixes in his intuition for what customers are searching for. The results we obtained with his services were 100x what I could have done alone. His work is equal parts art and science — something you usually don't find in a single person. The smooth process of working with Corey keeps me coming back project after project. "
Caylan Larson
Founder, Semireg Industries
" Corey gives me a more clear understanding of the perils and possibilities of Google. He has a bulldog attitude when it comes to really digging into the details. He's passionate about problem solving, has detailed understanding of Google's deepest features and has the ability to see beyond numbers and think in the abstract. I would recommend Corey to anyone — he has the best practical knowledge of Google of anyone I've ever worked with. "
Scott Zosel
Senior Marketing Manager, Lano Equipment, Inc.
" Corey is great to work with on PPC/Google Ads. He has helped my business grow and most of all he really gets the human element of digital marketing. He goes beyond the analytics and delivers on-point messaging to my prospects. He takes what I give him and runs with it with proficiency. "

If Your Google Ads Aren't Producing the Right Quote Requests, It's Usually Not Just One Thing
None of this means Google Ads can't work for your business. It usually means the problem isn't what you think it is — and nobody's looked at the whole picture yet.
"We're getting clicks, but not quote requests."
You're spending real money every month and the phone rings — but it's the wrong buyers. Wrong size, wrong fit, wrong industry. You're paying for traffic that was never going to send an RFQ.
"We hired an agency. It didn't work."
They promised results, handed you off to someone junior, and let Google's algorithm spend your budget the way Google likes — not the way your business needs. Three months later the leads were garbage and the fees kept coming.
"We don't know if the problem is the ads, the website, or something else."
You've changed the campaigns. Changed the agency. Nothing sticks. The frustrating part isn't the results — it's the uncertainty. Nobody's told you where the real problem actually is.
"I'm quoting constantly but not getting POs — something's off."
You're doing the work. You're sending quotes. But the pipeline feels like it's draining faster than it fills. That gut feeling is usually right.
"Google keeps pushing automation, but performance is flat."
Smart Bidding and Performance Max need 30–50 conversions a month to learn. At $3K–$8K spend, you're getting 10–15. The algorithm isn't the right tool at your budget level.
Why most Google Ads for manufacturers underperform
It's Not Always the Ads
Good Google Ads management matters. But if buyers click and don't trust the page, if tracking is broken, or if the offer is unclear — the ad account will never tell the full story. That's what makes this different.
Campaign structure and targeting
Most B2B manufacturing campaigns are built for e-commerce volume. Wrong match types, wrong bidding strategy, wrong campaign type for a 130-day sales cycle.
Keyword quality and search intent
The difference between a buyer researching solutions and a buyer ready to send an RFQ is everything. Most accounts can't tell the difference.
Landing page trust and message match
If your page doesn't speak to an industrial buyer in the first 5 seconds, the click was wasted. The ad account will never tell you that.
Conversion tracking and attribution
Most accounts I inherit have broken or incomplete tracking. If you can't see what's working, you can't improve it.
Lead quality hidden inside "good" traffic
Low cost per click isn't the goal. Qualified quote requests are. Those are different problems with different fixes.
Visibility gaps beyond the ad account
Sometimes buyers search directories, trade sites, and industry platforms before they ever touch Google. Gaps there cost you before the ad even runs.
Start With the Fastest Way to Find What's Blocking Your Quote Requests
A focused review of your Google Ads path to conversion — the landing experience, core messaging, tracking, and obvious visibility gaps — so you can see exactly what's blocking better quote requests before you spend more.
If you don't walk away with at least 3 specific, actionable things to fix — I'll refund every dollar. No pitch at the end. Some people fix it themselves. That's fine.
