Agent for hire · All agents

Local SEM Management Agent

Owns per-location paid search across Google Ads + Bing — rebalances budgets with real per-location attribution.

Hire the agent that runs per-location paid search. Drafts and rotates text ads, shopping ads, and extensions; manages keyword + negative-keyword libraries; allocates budgets per location using the rank-stream and attribution; detects per-location cannibalization where store A bids against store B's branded queries. Wraps Google Ads Editor, SA360, Optmyzr, Marin — does not replace them. Industry analysts put 30-50% of multi-location SEM spend in misallocation at flat-budget operators; this is the agent that fixes it.

What this agent owns

Per-location campaign structure, keyword + negative-keyword libraries, bid + budget allocation, ad copy + extensions, geo-targeting, and cannibalization defense across Google Ads + Bing Ads (+ Yahoo Native where present). Consumes rank-stream for SERP movement and attribution for per-location ROAS. Hands conversion-tracking config back to attribution; hands creative briefs to paid-social-creative when shared assets apply.
