Franchise PPC Services

Your Locations Are Competing Against Each Other. That Ends Here.

When franchise locations run separate campaigns and bid on the same branded keywords, they enter the same Google auction as competing advertisers. Google does not recognize them as one business. Bid prices inflate, budget burns, and cost per lead rises across the entire network.

CGColors solves the structural problem first. We map territories, consolidate brand keyword ownership at the franchisor level, and build location-specific campaigns with precise geo-targeting that keeps each franchisee in their own market. The result is a paid search network that works as one coordinated system, not dozens of isolated accounts working against each other.

Why Franchise PPC Is Structurally Different

A single-location business manages one campaign for one market. Franchise PPC operates at two completely separate levels simultaneously, each with different audiences, goals, and campaign logic.

  • At the franchisor level, the goal is often franchisee recruitment. These audiences are entrepreneurs evaluating business ownership, not consumers looking for a service location. They need completely different messaging, landing pages, and conversion paths.
  • At the franchisee level, the goal is local customer acquisition within a defined service territory. Radius or zip code targeting, localized ad copy, and CTAs for appointments drive results here.
  • Running both without structural separation creates budget misallocation, brand fragmentation, and reporting that cannot identify what is actually working at either level.

What We Do For Your Campaign

  • Territory Mapping and Campaign Architecture

    • Full audit of existing franchise accounts identifying internal bidding overlap before restructuring
    • Territory boundaries mapped for every active location using zip codes, radius settings, or city limits matched to franchisee agreements
    • Centralized account structure established for brand keyword management separate from location-level campaigns
    • Negative geo-targeting applied explicitly to each location campaign to prevent overlap into neighboring franchisee territory
  • National Brand Keyword Protection

    • All branded search terms consolidated under central management so franchisees never enter internal auctions
    • Brand campaigns directing searchers to location finders or location-specific pages based on search geography
    • Competitor trademark monitoring to identify rival brands bidding against your franchise name
