The Hard Truth

Most Senior Living
Google Ads Are a Total Waste

We audit a lot of Google Ads accounts. What we find in almost every single one is the same painful story β€” budgets being burned on the wrong searches, the wrong audiences, and landing pages that were never designed to convert a family in crisis.

πŸ”₯35–60% of ad spend going to irrelevant keywords that will never produce a move-in inquiry from a real family decision-maker.
πŸ“‰Generic landing pages with no senior living context, no empathy, no urgency β€” sending warm leads straight to your competitors.
⏱️Lead response times averaging 18+ hours. Studies show responding within 5 minutes makes you 9Γ— more likely to convert β€” and your agency has no CRM strategy whatsoever.
πŸ“ŠNo transparent reporting. No clarity on which campaigns drive actual tour bookings versus which ones just burn money and look pretty in a deck.

Why Elderbloom

Google Ads Built for
How Families Actually Search

We don't borrow PPC strategies from e-commerce or home services. Everything we do is built from 140+ communities of real senior living data.

🎯
Senior Living–Only Keyword Intelligence
We've spent years building the most comprehensive senior living keyword library in existence β€” 2,400+ negative keywords alone to ensure your budget never reaches the wrong searches. No generic PPC shop has this.
↑ 89% of budget hits qualified audiences on Day 1
πŸ“
Ad Copy That Speaks to Worried Families
When a daughter types "assisted living near me" at 11pm, she's not comparison shopping β€” she's scared. Our copy meets her with empathy, confidence, and a clear next step. Generic copy loses her to the community that understood her.
↑ 3.4Γ— higher click-through rate than industry benchmarks
🏑
Landing Pages Engineered to Convert
We don't send paid traffic to your homepage. Every campaign gets dedicated landing pages with trust signals, community-specific proof, seamless form flows, and conversion architecture built for the senior care decision journey.
↑ 4.2Γ— higher conversion rate vs. homepage traffic
⚑
CRM + Automation Integration Built-In
A lead at 2am is worthless if no one responds until 9am. We pair every Google Ads campaign with automated follow-up sequences that respond within minutes β€” not hours β€” dramatically improving your tour booking rate.
↑ 9Γ— more likely to convert when responding in under 5 min
πŸ“Š
Full-Funnel Tracking & Transparent Reporting

Client Voices

Heard It From the
People Who Matter

Directors of Marketing. VPs of Sales. Owner-Operators. These are the people who made the call. Here's what happened after.

I'd been running Google Ads for three years and had nothing to show for it. New agency after new agency, same story β€” lots of clicks, no tours. Elderbloom audited our account on a Monday, found $4,200 in monthly waste by Thursday, and we had our first qualified inquiry from Google within 11 days of their launch. Three months later we're at 91% occupancy.

SM
Sandra M.
Director of Marketing β€” Assisted Living, Orlando FL

As VP of Sales for a 4-community portfolio, I needed an agency that could handle the complexity without making me babysit them. Elderbloom gave each community a tailored strategy, had consistent reporting across all four, and our combined occupancy went from 79% to 93% in five months. They genuinely understand this industry.

JR
James R.
VP of Sales & Marketing β€” 4-Community Portfolio, TX

What convinced me to go with Elderbloom was the audit call. They already knew our specific keyword mistakes before I gave them access. They spoke our language β€” they knew what CCRC meant, they understood census pressure, they knew the difference between an inquiry and a move-in-ready lead. Nobody else talked like that. The results matched the expertise.

FAQ

Questions We Hear
From Every Community

How quickly will we see results from Google Ads?
+
Most Elderbloom clients see qualified tour inquiries within 7–14 days of campaign launch. Because our campaigns are built on pre-existing senior living keyword intelligence β€” not a learning period β€” we skip the 3-month ramp-up curve typical agencies require. By week four, you'll have enough data to see a clear trend in inquiry volume and cost per tour.
What makes you different from a general PPC or digital marketing agency?
+
We work exclusively with senior living communities. That means our keyword libraries, negative keyword lists, ad copy frameworks, landing page templates, and competitor intelligence are built entirely around how adult children and seniors search for senior care β€” not repurposed from retail, SaaS, or home services. The difference is evident the moment you see our audit of your current account versus ours.
How much do your Google Ads management services cost?
+
We custom-scope every engagement based on your community's size, market competition, care types, and goals. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all pricing β€” a single-site assisted living community has different needs than a 6-community portfolio. Book a free strategy call and we'll give you a clear, transparent proposal within 24 hours. No vague retainer ranges, no hidden fees.
Do we need a certain minimum ad budget to work with you?
+
Generally, we recommend a minimum Google Ads budget of $2,500/month per location to generate statistically meaningful data and meaningful lead volume in most markets. Higher-competition markets (major metros, Florida, California) typically require $4,000–$8,000/month to compete effectively. We'll give you an honest budget recommendation for your specific market during your free audit.
What if we already have an agency running our Google Ads?
+
We audit existing accounts all the time β€” and the audit itself is free. Give us read access to your current Google Ads account and within 48 hours we'll show you exactly where your current agency is costing you money. The vast majority of communities that go through this process switch to Elderbloom within two weeks. You don't have to take our word for it β€” let your own data tell the story.
Do you require long-term contracts?
+
No. We don't lock communities into long-term contracts because we believe our results should earn your continued partnership every single month. That said, we do require a minimum 3-month initial engagement to allow enough time for optimization and meaningful results β€” Google Ads performance improves significantly as we accumulate data and refine targeting. After that, it's month-to-month.
