    How we can help

    Separate urgent electrical calls from planned installations.

    Electrical marketing should make the service and the next step clear. We can plan Google Ads, local SEO and a website around fault finding, upgrades, installations and commercial work within your team’s scope. Customers need to recognise the right service and understand how to arrange an assessment or quote.

    What your customer needs to decide

    • Does the electrician provide this service and cover this location?
    • Is this an urgent fault enquiry or a planned installation?
    • What assessment is needed before scope and price can be confirmed?
    • Which qualifications and service authorisations can the business substantiate?

    Choose the services your plan needs

    1. SEO for electrical service questions

      Give fault finding, switchboards, lighting and other priority services their own useful explanations. Describe the assessment process and types of premises served. Include specialist services only where the business is authorised and equipped to provide them.

      • Service-specific electrical pages
      • Assessment and installation FAQs
      Explore SEO services
    2. Google Ads for faults, upgrades and installations

      Keep urgent enquiries distinct from planned switchboard, lighting or charger work. Match each message to a relevant page and the team’s operating area. Campaign timing should reflect who can respond and which services can be scheduled.

      • Fault and installation campaign groups
      • Service-scope and timing review
      Explore Google Ads
    3. Show the team and the work clearly

      Use genuine project examples, accurate business credentials and easy contact options. Let a customer describe the issue or planned installation without a complicated form. Explain how the business arranges the assessment, site visit or quote.

      • Project and service presentation
      • Simple mobile electrical enquiry
      Explore website design
    4. Make the local electrical business easy to find

      Keep contact details, service categories, hours and coverage accurate. Present the actual team and relevant reviews, and make any specialist capability clear using the business’s approved wording.

      • Business profile and category review
      • Consistent coverage and contact details
      Explore local SEO
    5. Prepare the right electrical appointment

      Collect the property location, service required and urgency. Planned projects may also need property type, scope and preferred timing. Review enquiry suitability and accepted work with the team to understand which service groups deserve attention.

      • Urgent and planned-job questions
      • Appointment and service-quality review
      Improve enquiry quality

    Campaign timing follows the job.

    An urgent call and a planned quote need different responses. Our client stories show how scheduled campaigns cover the services people need and when the business can respond.

    Cost per lead

    What a lead costs for electricians on Google Ads

    Electricians typically pay A$30–A$60 per lead on Google Ads when campaigns are built efficiently, for scale and volume, and closer to A$40–A$70 in Melbourne and Sydney. Smaller campaigns find that range harder to reach.

    SoudCoh is built on efficiency: every campaign is set up and judged on what a lead and a booked job cost, not on clicks or impressions. Figures are ad spend per lead on Google Ads, before GST and our management fee. A lead is a phone call or an enquiry form.

    About Electricians

    1 What you need

    Our speciality: Google and Meta ads that bring in paying customers. We measure cost per job, not cost per click.

    2 Your ad spend

    Spending A$5,000 a month or more on ads? That's who we work with — up to A$30,000 a day, and enterprise programmes above that.

    We recommend a minimum of A$5,000 a month in ad spend for most businesses. That's what you pay Google or Meta for your ads — not your revenue. Our management fee is separate.

    Think in daily budgets? About A$165 a day is A$5,000 a month.

    3 Your business

    We look at it before we reply. No website yet? A Facebook page or Google Business Profile link works too.

    4 What you want

    What would make this worth it? A sentence or two is plenty.

    Where the money goes.

    Most electricians hit the same walls, and not one of them shows up in a cost-per-click report. This is what we find when we open the account.

    1. No power and lights out are urgent searches

      Someone dealing with a power loss needs a clear service promise and a direct route to an available electrician. We match the campaign and page to the problem and the hours your business can respond.

    2. Switchboards and installations need a different conversation

      Switchboard upgrades, EV chargers, lighting and commercial work involve different questions and quote requirements. Service-specific copy helps customers understand what you provide before they enquire.

    3. Your credentials and coverage should be easy to find

      We make the business's actual licensing, insurance, reviews and service area visible. The information should be accurate for the state and the work offered, with clear contact details on mobile.

    4. Ad conversions alone do not explain the work won

      Phone calls, form submissions and recorded job outcomes answer different questions. We review the available evidence together so campaign decisions reflect enquiry quality and the work your team can deliver.

    04 stages

    How we bring the work in.

    Campaigns are created paused, every time. You read the whole build before a dollar moves — that is a rule we hold ourselves to, not a favour.

    1. Stage 01

      Map the electrical services

      No power, lights out, switchboard work, hot water electrical faults and planned installations can each need their own message. We agree on priorities, areas and capacity with the business.

    2. Stage 02

      Make the next step clear

      Mobile pages make the phone number easy to use and the quote form easy to complete. Emergency enquiries and planned commercial work receive an appropriate path.

    3. Stage 03

      Make enquiries easier to review

      We help the team understand which services and locations enquiries relate to, so campaign decisions reflect the work the business wants to win.

    4. Stage 04

      Assess cost and job quality

      We review service demand, attributed call and form enquiries, and recorded outcomes. This helps the business assess urgent call-outs separately from planned installations.

    Campaigns are built paused. You read the whole thing first.

    Send us what you are running now and we will put a 30-day plan for electricians in writing. You keep it either way.

    FAQ

    Before you book a call.

    The questions electricians ask us most often, answered straight.

    The first call is free and there is no deck.

    SoudCoh builds websites for electricians across Australia and has published 7 electrician website builds, among them Aussie Electrical (650 pages), I-ELEC (231 pages) and 247 Electrician Mate. They are listed at soudcoh.com/website-design-for/electricians. When you compare web designers, check for live sites you can visit, a page for each electrical service, tap-to-call on every screen, and tracking of calls and forms.

    For most electricians, SoudCoh starts with Google Search ads for the jobs you want most, such as no-power call-outs, switchboard upgrades or EV chargers, a website with a page for each service and tap-to-call, and an accurate Google Business Profile with genuine reviews. The right mix depends on your services, area and capacity, so we judge it by tracked calls, forms and the jobs they become, not by clicks.

    Yes, where the business actually holds the authorisation and wants that work. We use the company’s approved service descriptions and credentials, then confirm that the campaign locations and enquiry process fit the service.

    The urgent contact path should be easy to understand. Planned installations can have their own pages with more detail about options, assessment and quoting, so each customer can find the information relevant to their situation.

    We start with the business’s priorities and available capacity. Urgent call work, home upgrades and commercial projects can be reviewed separately, using the team’s feedback on suitability and completed or accepted work.

    Electricians typically pay A$30–A$60 per lead on Google Ads when campaigns are built efficiently, for scale and volume, and closer to A$40–A$70 in Melbourne and Sydney. Smaller campaigns find that range harder to reach. Figures are ad spend per lead on Google Ads, before GST and our management fee. A lead is a phone call or an enquiry form.
