    How we measured

    Figures cover the latest seven weeks of ads. Won jobs are those Lumex marked won at the agreed price. Earlier calls in this window have no recorded outcome and remain in the enquiry denominator; service-value shares cover web forms only. Agreed job value is revenue before costs, not cash collected or profit.

    • Service

      73%

      House and deep cleaning made up 73% of won revenue that came through web forms.

      • House and deep cleaning73%
      • Oven, tile and grout cleaning26%

      Regular, one-off and deep house cleans brought in 73% of form-led won revenue; oven, tile and grout cleans brought in the rest. End-of-lease cleaning, where the account began, made up 12% of form enquiries over the same weeks and none of the won revenue from forms. That tells the budget where the won work is.

    • Device

      71%

      Phones brought 71% of ad clicks, so the quote had to work on a small screen.

      Most people found Lumex on a phone. The quote form asks one thing at a time across three short steps, and a call button stays in reach on every page, so a customer can start a quote or ring without hunting for either.

    Lumex Cleaning's Google Ads connected Sydney cleaning searches with the right service page, a three-step quote form and tracked calls. Over the latest seven weeks, 24% of traced enquiries became won jobs.

    The business

    Lumex Cleaning is a Sydney cleaning business. It offers regular and one-off house cleaning, deep and specialist cleans such as ovens, bathrooms and tile and grout, and end-of-lease and pre-sale cleaning. Its website groups those services into house cleaning, deep and specialist cleaning, and property cleaning, with prices by property type.

    What we set out to do

    With a dozen services on offer, the question was which of them the ads should spend on. Enquiry counts alone could not answer that, so the aim was to trace each enquiry to the client's job records and judge the ads on the work they became.

    What we built

    The search campaigns are split by service. A search about domestic cleaning, oven cleaning, deep cleaning, tile and grout or end-of-lease cleaning sees an ad for that service and lands on that service's page. Each page leads to a three-step quote form that asks about the job, then the property, then the customer.

    Lumex quote page with the first step of a three-step quote form asking for the service
    The quote form starts with the job, so the enquiry arrives with what Lumex needs to price it.

    Calls from the ads arrive on a tracked number, and forms carry the ad click. When Lumex marks a job as won in its own job records, the agreed price is recorded against the enquiry. The website is covered in the Lumex Cleaning website case study.

    What happened

    Over the latest seven weeks, 24% of Google Ads enquiries became won jobs. House and deep cleaning accounted for 73% of won job value from web forms. Those results helped identify which cleaning services deserved their own ads and landing pages.

    Lumex Cleaning: service campaigns that turned 24% of enquiries into won jobs

    What the results measure.

    The definitions behind the campaign results, from enquiries and conversion rates to advertising spend.

    Conversion
    An action recorded under the account’s conversion setup, such as a tracked call, form submission, booking or purchase. Platform call/form enquiries are described separately in the study; repeat calls can be separate events, so enquiries are not necessarily unique people.
    Cost per job · cost per lead
    Advertising spend divided by the relevant recorded enquiry or job count. The study identifies the denominator. Enquiry cost is considered alongside lead quality and job value.
    Conversion rate
    Recorded conversion actions divided by ad interactions, usually clicks. The study identifies which actions count toward its rate.
    Ad spend
    Money spent on the advertising platform. The enquiry costs and revenue-to-ad-spend figures here exclude agency fees and the cost of delivering the client’s service.
    The measurement window
    The period covered by the result, with spend and outcomes drawn from the same reporting window.
    A starting point
    Starting values appear beside the resulting figure when the account history is available.
    Qualified lead
    An enquiry assessed against the agreed service, service area and customer requirements.
    An anonymised client
    A project published without the client’s name. The page identifies its sector and explains the scope of the work.

    Put your own numbers to work: work out the ROAS your margin needs, with your own click price and close rate. It takes about a minute and asks for nothing.

    How we run accounts

    How we manage the campaign.

    We define the outcomes to track, test the enquiry paths and use what we learn to guide campaign improvements. SoudCoh Compound explains how that work is organised.

    • Rule 01

      Count real enquiries only

      The number it moves: True cost per lead

      We agree which calls, forms, bookings or sales count as a result, and a real test enquiry goes through every tracking path before the campaign goes live.

    • Rule 08

      Build on practical campaign experience

      The number it moves: Waste blocked before the first click

      Every change on an account like this one is written to that client's change history, and what it teaches, never the client's numbers, goes into the next account's starting point.

    If you want one of these

    What actually happens after the first call.

    Start with your goals and current setup. We review the opportunity, agree the work and plan the next stage with you.

    1. The call

      Thirty to forty-five minutes, free

      We discuss your services, customers, website and goals, then identify the most useful next step.

    2. Week 0

      The audit

      We review your website and advertising, then set out the opportunities, priorities and recommended scope.

    3. Week 1

      The build

      Everything the account needs before it can spend a dollar: what it will bid on, what it must never pay for, the ad copy, the assets, the landing pages and the tracking. It waits in our approval queue, and a real test enquiry goes through every tracking path before anything is live.

    4. Day one

      You press go

      Campaigns are created paused, every time, so you can read the whole build first. You activate when you are ready, not when we are.

    5. Days 1–14

      The clean

      We review search terms, exclude irrelevant searches and refine keywords and ads using the early campaign data.

    6. From there

      Rhythm

    The questions this raises.

    How the results were measured and how the approach could apply to cleaning businesses.

    The first call is free and there is no deck.

    Book a call
    What did SoudCoh deliver for Lumex Cleaning?

    Google Ads search campaigns split by service, with each ad sending people to the matching service page. A three-step quote form and tracked calls, with every enquiry traced from the ad to the client's job records. Won jobs recorded at the agreed price, so the return on ad spend is built from real jobs. A review of won work by service and device.

    Why is most of the won work house cleaning rather than end-of-lease cleaning?

    The account began with end-of-lease cleaning, and it still runs ads for it. Over these seven weeks, regular, one-off and deep house cleaning brought in most of the form-led won revenue, while end-of-lease cleaning made up 12% of form enquiries and none of the won revenue from forms. The figures follow the work the ads actually produced.

    What do the results in this Lumex Cleaning case study measure?

    Campaign results describe the enquiries or job outcomes reported for the client. Each figure identifies what it measures.

    Which records support these results?

    Result basis: Latest seven weeks of Google Ads. The labels distinguish advertising conversions, call/form enquiries and won-job revenue. Enquiry events can include repeat calls; booked jobs are reported separately.

    Would this work for cleaning businesses like mine?

    We assess your service area, competition, margins and customer value, then build a plan around the opportunities in your business. The first call establishes the priorities, budget and tracking for that work.

    How would you plan this for my business?

    We start with your goals, service area, competition and customer value. From there, we recommend the channels, website improvements and tracking that fit your next stage of growth.

    How much would this cost to run?

    Two separate numbers. Your ad spend goes to the platform, and what it needs to be depends on how competitive your market is and how many jobs you want — we recommend a minimum of A$5,000 a month for most businesses, and the largest companies we work with currently invest up to A$30,000 a day in advertising, with enterprise programmes above that. Our management fee is separate, isn't published and is custom-built around the work — contact us for packages. The first call is free and you leave it with a real figure for your situation.

    How quickly could we start seeing enquiries?

    It depends on the channel. Paid search meets demand that already exists, so calls and forms can arrive within hours of launch, and the first two to four weeks are an optimisation period where waste is cut daily. Most accounts settle into their best rhythm around 60 to 90 days. SEO, content and brand work run on a much longer clock — months rather than weeks — and we will tell you which one your situation actually needs.

    Ready to plan your campaign?

    Thirty minutes on your numbers, and a written list of what we would change first. Yours to keep either way.
