Getting Work Automatically By Advertising On Google.

Article By: Andre Hendricks


ssuming you have website, in this article I want to talk to you about using Google to advertise your freelance courier service to attract courier jobs automatically!. I think I can safely say everyone has heard of Google the giant search engine.


But very few freelance couriers know the power of advertising on Google. I’ll be releasing a video where I show step-by-step how to open a Google Adwords account and how to write ads that will appear on Google.

But let me back track and briefly give you a history lesson on why Google became the biggest search engine in the world even though they came after MSN and Yahoo as well as how Google works for advertisers like you.  

Google was founded by 2 college drop-outs named Larry Page and Sergey Brim in a dorm room. To date Google is now worth more than $80 Billion dollars.  While MSN and Yahoo all tons of information and a search box on their home pages, Google simply put a search box and a button on their website -- Nothing else.

They then out performed MSN and Yahoo by giving searchers as relevant as possible information pertaining to their search. People got frustrated searching for things online and keep getting unrelated results. Google aspired to change that and strive for relevance in all their services.

This is very important to understand when creating ads for your own website. Google will actually charge you more for unrelated ads and someone with a relevant ad will actually pay less. Like I said this is more of a science and is better shown to demonstrate what I mean.

But let’s say you are based in Manchester. You have a website and you’re all set to start taking jobs from potential clients. You’ll open a Google account, write an ad that reads something like this:

Now like I said advertising on Google is more of a science then an art and of you understand how to advertise your service correctly, Google can be a very valuable source of income for your business.

But I don’t want to get into the nitty details of constructing proper Google ads in this articles, It’s best shown in the video on the subject so keep an eye on your inbox for news about the video.

In this article I want to tell you about the importance of using Google as part of your marketing efforts. So back to the example of our freelance courier in Manchester.  You’ve got a website but you want to advertise your service on Google.

Here’s how Google works.  Every time someone is searching for courier services Google will display your ad  and charge you per click when potential customers click on your ad. On average you’ll pay around 12-15p per click. 

This can be significantly less if you know how to advertise effectively. But an even more targeted feature of Google is that they Allow you to advertise ONLY in your town or the area in which you are available for work.

So say you can do courier jobs for clients in Manchester and surrounding areas, your ad will only be displayed to searchers in your specified target location. People searching for couriers in Nottingham will not see your ad while people searching for couriers in Manchester will.

This is an extremely powerful and targeted tool to use and you can use Google to drive tons of potential customers to your business via your website.

Once your business grows, you cam also use Goggle to advertise your international delivery service once you start doing that, as well as small household removals when you decide to diversify your business services.

We’ll get into these additional services in latter articles and videos but for now, I want you to be aware of the power that lies in advertising on Google.

In an earlier article, I said you should be spending at least 70% of your time marketing your service remember? Well, if you advertise on Google, Google will allow you to do that 24 hours a day 7 days a week with taking a rest or making excuses.

In essence you have a sales person that markets your business full time -- day and night.  Don’t be surprised if you start getting phone calls from people all over your town looking for courier services. Once again, consider that people are lazy creatures and they will rather do a quick search online for couriers rather than shovel through a phone book to find the number they are looking for.

You want to make sure your website appears when they do and you want to tell them about your business and services once they arrive at your website.

I hope this article shed some light on the possibilities of using Google. That’s it for today.

Thanks and to your continued success.
