What it is
Google Ads is the fastest route to the top of the search results. Instead of earning your rankings over months with SEO, you pay to appear right at the top the moment someone searches for what you do, and you only pay when they actually click. For an essential service business, that means the phone can start ringing in the first week.

Residential and commercial plumbing across Calgary and area.
How it works
We research the precise keywords your customers type, like "emergency plumber near me", and set your ads to show only for those high-intent searches, never wasted on idle browsers.
The instant someone searches, Google holds a millisecond auction. Your bid and your ad quality decide whether you appear, and in what position. We bid to win the top spot at the lowest possible cost per click.
A higher quality score, earned with tight ad copy and a fast, relevant landing page, lets you outrank competitors while paying less per click than they do.
No click, no charge. Every click is a real person choosing your business over the rest, and every one is tracked to the call or form it becomes.
Our approach
Most agencies set a campaign live and let it drift. We build the complete campaign from day one, then run your entire 41-point checklist every single week. That relentless control over where every dollar goes is what makes our campaigns work, and what makes us different.
Keywords, negatives, ad groups, copy, extensions, geo-targeting, and conversion tracking, all built out properly before a single dollar is spent.
Cortex runs all 41 Google Ads checks weekly: match types, negatives, bids, geo, extensions, and quality score, so nothing quietly slips.
We hunt down and cut the searches that burn budget without bringing leads, so more of your money goes to the clicks that actually convert.
Every call recorded and every form tracked, with a concise weekly report showing exactly what new business your budget bought.

“This one is truly deserved”
I usually don’t write reviews, but this one is truly deserved. Having owned numerous businesses over the last 20+ years, finding someone to build a website has always been that task I disliked the most because communication was always difficult and I never seemed to be happy with the results.

“Stop looking, it is them”
Working with Corey and the Get X Media team is like handing your marketing to a group of mad scientists with great hair and better ideas. They didn’t just take my fitness company and revamp and run with it, they sprinted, dodged potholes and crossed the finish line. Corey’s sharp eye for structure, tone and “don’t bore me” content took my ideas from a rough voice note to “damn, I’d buy from me.” They’re fast and creative. If you’re looking for the right marketing company, stop looking, it’s them.
