Paid Advertising Launch

Ads on Google, Meta and ChatGPT that you can trace to booked jobs.

The Paid Advertising Launch is Southbeam's ad setup for businesses in Tampa Bay that gets your first campaigns running on Google, Facebook and Instagram, and on ChatGPT where your business is eligible. Every campaign comes with call and form tracking, so you can see which ads bring in leads and which ones to turn off. The ad accounts are in your name.

Starting offers from $750. Managed plans from $750 a month, plus ad spend. Month to month.

What the Paid Advertising Launch includes

We set up the accounts, write the ads, build the tracking and launch. You approve the ads and the budget before anything spends.

  • 1Google Ads for the services people search when they need you today
  • 2Facebook and Instagram ads that keep you in front of people nearby before they need you
  • 3A small ChatGPT ads test, if your business is eligible
  • 4Call and form tracking on every campaign
  • 5Ads that send people to the page for that service, with a way to call or book
  • 6Ad accounts in your name, with ad spend kept separate from our fee

How each call and form is traced to the ad that brought it

Each campaign gets its own tracking. When someone calls or fills out a form, the system that remembers every customer records which ad they came from. If that lead becomes a booked job, you see that too.

That lets you keep the ads that bring calls and change or turn off the ones that only bring clicks.

Can you run ChatGPT ads for my business?

Yes, if your business is in a category OpenAI allows. ChatGPT began showing ads to US users in February 2026, and OpenAI opened its self-serve Ads Manager to US businesses in May 2026. Ads appear as labeled sponsored placements, separate from ChatGPT's answer, and OpenAI says ads don't influence the answers.

Some categories are limited. OpenAI doesn't allow ads for legal services, so for law firms we put that budget into Google and Meta. Dental and certain cosmetic advertisers are reviewed case by case, so for dental offices and med spas we apply first and test only once you're approved. If your business qualifies, we think a small test of ChatGPT ads in Tampa Bay is worth running while it's new.

Your ad accounts stay in your name

We create your Google Ads and Meta ad accounts in your name, or work inside the ones you already have. If you stop working with us, the accounts, the ad history and the tracking stay with you.

How much does it cost to run Google and Facebook ads with Southbeam?

Starting offers begin at $750, and ad spend is separate. Managed plans start at $750 a month, plus ad spend, month to month. You get exact numbers on the free call.

Do I have to sign a long contract?

No. Every plan is month to month, with no long-term contract.

Who owns the ad accounts?

You do. The ad accounts are in your name from day one, and they stay yours if you leave.

What if the ads don't bring in calls?

You'll see it in the tracking, since every call and form is matched to the ad that brought it. We change or turn off the ads that aren't bringing calls, and on a managed plan we keep doing that each month.

Can a law firm run ChatGPT ads?

No. OpenAI doesn't allow legal-services ads, so for law firms we focus on Google and Meta.

What do you need from me?

The services you want more of, the areas you serve, a monthly ad budget and access to any ad accounts you already have.
