What do you like best about LocaliQ?

My consultant follows a clear strategy and together we have managed to hit all our targets. She works extremely fast and efficient, which means that our consultation times are fully utilised and carry true value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

The software's 20-minute work week does not always make the best keyword suggestions. I suspect the algorithm will be more accurate for campaigns that receive more impressions as our company operates in a very small niche market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LocaliQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have managed to bring down our cost per conversion and cost per action while increasing our conversion rate. And this was all on the back of an advertising budget that was severely cut a week before starting to work with Wordstream. These days I spend less time focussing on Google Ads and researching the best techniques and can finally focus my efforts on other areas of the digital marketing space.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

My experience with Wordstream was fantastic. Throughout our onboarding, the adviser we had been assigned was quite educated, provide excellent guidance, and consistently followed our calls with useful documentation, documentation, etc.. She concentrated our discussions I got the maximum and immediately knew we'd use the platform. While being simple to use, the stage itself is persuasive. I really like I can handle PPC networks in 1 place rather than having to leap between programs. I discover that a number are more comfy in Wordstream than they're about the native programs. At length, Work Week is a superb tool for maintaining my campaigns each week, which is healthful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

It is tough to find something to dislike Wordstream, but when I needed to think of something, I'd say that they could enlarge on the 20-Minute Work Week instrument so it does a more comprehensive examination of the health of the accounts for all those folks who'd be delighted to devote additional time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

This is a system, supported and developed by specialists in the area. The customer support is. I believe that the return on investment for this particular platform is worth the cost. Advertising services have been made by it at my service efficient and tremendously efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LocaliQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

We'd been using before going to Wordstream -- by using this Wordstream platform made effort management much more comfortable than when we had been to depend on the resources inside the 45, bringing PPC management a solution that had yielded results. While we are working on optimizing our campaigns (we're in a very competitive, overpriced marketplace about PPC), Wordstream has made focusing on negative key words simple, helping us to draw down our CPA.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

WordStream offers an analytics platform all built into one system to track and improve data in Adwords, Bing and Facebook. The beautiful part is that they have this 20 min work week that tells you what needs to be corrected for that week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

Nothing. The platform is super easy and your have support to help you get started and are available anytime you have questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Get WordStream if you are having trouble controlling the volume of PPC and would like recommendations no how to increase the performance of your ads. Also WordStream has a great reporting tool that allows you to present the performance to the Executives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LocaliQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

WordStream allows me to have time back in my day while they take care of everything for me. I have no need to go into Google Analytics to build and maintain my ads. The best part is that WordStream provides you with weekly recommendations to help you improve your ads performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

The experience and interaction we receive with the Premier Consulting has allowed us to utilize the tools and techniques of the WordStream technology above and beyond what we could manage on our own. And the technology behind the tool is absolutely brilliant. Using WordStream is equivalent to a team of 15 - 20 paid advertising experts doing the same amount of work manually. The accuracy of the suggested changes to our campaigns continues to get smarter and smarter every week which makes the 20 minute work week analysis tool so intuitive that it is actually humbling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

I can honestly say that there isn't one thing that I don't like about WordStream ... they are my "Go To" for a one-stop shop for my integrated outsourced assistance with online paid advertising across multiple platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

When initially implementing WordStream into your efforts I strongly suggest adding Premier Consulting to your package because it takes you to the top level of expertise a lot faster that you will get there on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LocaliQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have essentially added a full team of online marketing experts and manages by partnering with WordStream at a fraction of the overhead that it would take to staff the same amount of experience and competencies. And the WordStream tool itself solves for any struggles of staying at the cutting edge of online marketing strategies and best practices as algorithms and compliance requirements constantly change. In the simplest terms ... we are able to do a lot more work in a lot less time creating an opportunity to focus more time and effort on the larger strategy and constantly move the needle forward.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

Wordstream's 20 Minute Work Week helps to focus attention on key areas straightaway, so you can make high-impact changes first. Then, the dashboard and various reports help to highlight other areas for attention. I also have a fortnightly consultation with one of the Wordstream experts who provides yet more steer on optimising the account.

One of the main benefits of making changes in Wordstream as opposed to the native ad platform is the fact you can defer the changes until you're ready to post. There's been a couple of occasions where I've changed a bid or match type, then later decided against it - just dismiss the changes in WS and no problem! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

There's nothing I dislike really but there are a few features I wish were present. I use responsive ads a lot in my campaigns and at the moment these aren't supported in WS. You also can't export anything - there's been times when I've wanted to export a list from Keyword Research and been unable to.

The dynamic ad creator was an initial draw but in practice, the designs are quite limited in what you can do. There's no option to enlarge or crop the images you import, and the templates look a bit outdated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Although it's not the cheapest PPC management tool out there if you have a large account, the way it helps to focus your workload and improve spending efficiency means it's worth the price tag. And for smaller accounts it's invaluable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LocaliQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of my main issues and the reason I trialled WordStream initially was that my quality score was low, leading to my CPC being higher than it should be. The native Google platform isn't great for monitoring quality score, and doesn't show averages across groups or campaigns to help you find where to focus.

WordStream was invaluable for this.

Not only have I managed to raise the average quality score on my account from 5.2 to 7.8 (reducing my CPC in the process) but I've also improved my impression share from 9% to 22% by following the recommendations in WordStream and from my consultant.

Another issue (related to the above) was that my campaigns just weren't spending. Each month we'd spend perhaps a quarter of the actual budget, even when pushing bids to the recommended CPC. Through the improvements made to quality score and impression share/ad rank, it's now spending bang on budget and we've seen a Q3 revenue increase of 88% vs last year.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

I like that WOrdStream is easy to use and intuitive. We received training at the beginning to ensure that we were ready to fully utilize Wordstream and it has been super helpful from the beginning! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

There hasn't really been anything that my team has disliked about Wordstream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Wordstream is relatively easy to use. I would recommend just playing around in the program and pressing the buttons to see what they do right a the beginning. If you already have some experience in the program, then it will be easier to get the most out of the training calls that you have with the salesman! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LocaliQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

Wordstream is helping us optimize our Google Ads for several of our clients. It saves us time and money and helps us provide a more effective service for our clients with a higher ROI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

Wordstream allows you to improve PPC in an easy way. I loved the 20-minute work week, especially with Google Ads, as it is much easier to create, optimize and manage ads with Wordstream. I had help anytime I needed with different things with the agents they have available 24/7 once you log in to your account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

I would have liked to have more options of ads that could be used for different campaigns on Google and Facebook. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

I love the Client Center. It gives a very clear view of all the accounts that I manage. I can look at all of their basic performance, even their ad spend up the the current day of the month with a percentage, letting me know if they're spending more than they should or if we need to increase their daily budget.

And from the Client Center view, if you see any numbers that are low among accounts, you can click on it and go straight into making changed and optimizations to help their performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

I think it would be better to have budget increase recommendations based off the target spend. If they correlated with each other then I feel like the recommendations would be more effective. Especially if we're going in to do optimizations as much as we should be, then we can make accurate budget changes based off their spend to help them get the most out of their budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LocaliQ:

Depending on your work load and the amount of clients you have, this will greatly benefit you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LocaliQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

As you can probably tell, I'm pretty big on the budget. We've had a lot of clients hit their monthly budget before the end of the month and have had to stop their ads. Now we can closely follow their spend and keep them up and running the whole month. I like the 20-minute work week optimize ads feature because it points out the lowest preforming ads and helps us, with great efficiency, to rewrite that ad to be on par with our best performing ads.

What do you like best about LocaliQ?

The 20-minute work week is the most amazing force multiplier for our business. It allows me to maximize the return on what little time I have, which is what you need in a tool like Wordstream. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LocaliQ?

I would like more features that can save me more time. Further integrations into other platforms would be appreciated but are not essential to keep me as a customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LocaliQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being that we are a startup looking for solutions that can help us be more efficient and help us scale is always at the top of my list. Wordstream is just that when it comes to paid and social advertising. Also, this isn't the first time I have used Wordstream to solve for this challenge, I have used them 2 other times prior at different companies that I have worked at. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
