They have CCTV systems that are unreliable or outdated and cannot meet safeguarding and insurance documentation requirements

They operate multiple leisure centres across London and need consistent, centrally managed IT infrastructure at every site

Their Wi-Fi cannot handle the volume of members and staff connecting simultaneously, especially during peak class times

They are modernising their facilities and need IT infrastructure to support contactless entry, digital signage, and app-based bookings

They lack a disaster recovery plan and a system failure during a major event or competition would be reputationally damaging

Our approach

A proven four-stage process that turns ad spend into measurable revenue growth.

Discovery & Audit

We audit your existing Google Ads account (or assess your market from scratch), analyse competitors, review your landing pages and identify the highest-value opportunities for your budget and goals.

Strategy & Setup

We build a custom PPC strategy covering campaign structure, keyword targeting, bidding approach, ad copy and audience segmentation — then configure everything in your account, including conversion tracking.

Launch & Optimise

Campaigns go live with close monitoring. We continuously optimise bids, pause underperforming keywords, test new ad variations, refine audiences and adjust budgets to maximise your return on ad spend.

Report & Scale

Monthly performance reports with clear ROAS metrics. We review what's working, identify scaling opportunities and continually push your campaigns to deliver more conversions at a better cost per acquisition.

Why choose Cloudswitched for sports & leisure Google Ads?

We specialise in local leisure advertising — geo-targeted campaigns with precise radius targeting around your facility, not broad campaigns that waste budget on people too far away to visit regularly.

Our campaigns promote specific membership offers, class trials, and seasonal promotions with compelling ad copy and landing pages designed to convert searchers into sign-ups.

We align your advertising with seasonal membership peaks — January fitness resolutions, September back-to-routine campaigns, and summer holiday activity programmes — scaling budgets when demand is highest.

We track the full conversion journey from ad click to trial visit to committed membership, so you know exactly what each new member costs to acquire and which campaigns deliver the best return.

Transparent monthly reporting shows membership sign-ups, cost per acquisition, and return on ad spend in clear terms that facility managers and trustees can act on with confidence.

Google Ads management for Sports & Leisure

What's included in our Google Ads service

Campaign Strategy & Account Setup

A complete Google Ads strategy built around your goals, audience and budget. We structure your account using best-practice architecture, set up conversion tracking with Google Tag Manager, and configure audience lists for remarketing. Existing accounts get a full audit first to identify wasted spend and quick wins.

Keyword Research & Bid Management

In-depth keyword research mapped to buyer intent with bid strategies that maximise conversions within your budget. Ongoing negative keyword management, match type refinement, device and location bid adjustments, and automated bidding strategy testing ensure every pound works harder.

Ad Copy & Creative

Compelling ad copy written to maximise click-through rates and quality scores. Multiple responsive search ad variations per ad group, systematic headline and description testing, plus full ad extensions -- sitelinks, callouts, structured snippets and call extensions to dominate the results page.

Landing Page Recommendations

We audit your landing pages for conversion rate, page speed, mobile usability and message match -- then provide specific, actionable recommendations. Because we also build websites, we can implement improvements ourselves -- no waiting for a third-party developer.

Conversion Tracking & Analytics

Accurate tracking for form submissions, phone calls and e-commerce transactions using Google Tag Manager, GA4 and Google Ads conversion tags. Enhanced conversions, offline conversion imports and attribution modelling show the true value of your campaigns beyond last-click metrics.

Remarketing & Audience Strategy

Remarketing audiences segmented by behaviour -- page visitors, cart abandoners, past converters and lookalikes -- with tailored creative for each segment. Plus Google's in-market audiences, custom intent targeting and demographic targeting to reach new customers matching your ideal buyer profile.

Competitor & Market Analysis

We monitor competitors' keywords, ad copy, landing pages and estimated spend to find gaps they're missing. Regular auction insights analysis shows how your impression share and outranking share compare, so we can adjust strategy to win more of the clicks that matter.

Monthly Reporting & Strategy Reviews

Detailed monthly reports covering impressions, clicks, conversions, cost per acquisition and return on ad spend -- explained clearly with actionable context. Monthly strategy calls review performance and plan optimisation priorities, with quarterly deep-dives to keep strategy aligned with your goals.

IT company, not just an agency

Fixed fees, not percentage-of-spend

Our management fees are transparent and fixed. We'll never recommend increasing your budget just to inflate our own fees — our incentive is always aligned with getting you the best possible return.

ROAS-focused, not clicks-focused

We measure success by revenue and return on ad spend — not impressions, clicks or other vanity metrics. Every optimisation decision is tied to a clear commercial outcome for your business.

Campaigns and landing pages under one roof

Because we build websites and landing pages in-house, we can create, test and iterate CRO-optimised pages without waiting for a third-party developer. Strategy and execution, completely integrated.

Bulletproof conversion tracking

Accurate tracking is the foundation of every profitable campaign. We set up and validate conversion tracking via Google Tag Manager, ensuring every phone call, form fill and transaction is measured correctly.
