The 2026 research

How customers find a local business in 2026.

Buyers now look in four places before they call: the ads, the map pack, the organic results and, more and more, an AI answer. The numbers below are why we plan all four together.

  • $294.6B

    US internet ad revenue in 2025, up 13.9%. Search alone took $114.2B.1

    Search is still where buyers go when they are ready to hire.
  • 45%

    of consumers now use ChatGPT or other AI tools for local business recommendations, up from 6% a year earlier.2

    If an assistant can’t find you, it recommends someone else.
  • 68%

    will only use a business with four or more stars, up from 55% in 2025.2

    Your rating filters you in or out before anyone calls.
  • 93%

    of simple “near me” style searches showed a local pack. AI Overviews showed on 15%.3

    For most local searches, Google Maps still decides who gets the call.
The gap nobody reports on: a May 2026 study of 1,120 local searches in 13 US cities found 28.5% of businesses in Google’s local pack did not appear in Google’s AI Mode for the same search.4 Ranking in Maps no longer guarantees you get named by the AI. That is what our AEO service fixes.
Plan builder

Tell us the goal. We’ll show you the order.

Pick what you need most and a rough budget. You get the services we would start with, our published fees, and what the first 90 days look like.

1. Your goal
2. Total monthly marketing budget, including ad spend
Where we would start

    Fees are our published prices. Ad spend goes to Google or Meta directly and is never marked up. Your final plan depends on your market and competition.

    How we plan a budget

    Rent the fast leads. Own the ones that compound.

    Every channel sits somewhere between two jobs. Ads and Local Services Ads bring calls quickly, and they stop the day you stop paying. A Business Profile, reviews, SEO and AI visibility take longer, but they keep working after the work is done.

    Most of our clients start with one fast channel to fund the slow ones, then shift budget toward the channels they own as those start to pay. The website, call answering and tracking sit underneath all of it. They decide how many of those visitors become booked jobs.

    • Month 1Tracking and one fast channel
    • Months 2–3Business Profile, reviews, first SEO pages
    • Months 4–12Shift spend toward what you own
    Keeps working when you stop paying Time to the first lead → Rent: fast, stops when you stop Own: slower, compounds

    Google Ads Management

    Two plans, priced on your ad spend

    The management fee is set by how much you spend on ads, not by which plan you pick. The plan sets how often we get into the account. Ad spend goes to Google directly and is never bundled into our fee.

    How we work

    Four promises in every plan.

    • The founders run it

      Richard Lacayo and Robert Samayoa still build and manage campaigns. You get a named strategist with direct access.

    • Month-to-month

      No 12-month contract and no cancellation fee. 95% of clients stay anyway.

    • You own everything

      Ad accounts, Analytics, your Business Profile, domain and website are in your name from day one.

    • Reports in plain English

      Calls, forms, booked jobs and cost per lead. Not impressions, not a 40-page PDF nobody reads.

    FAQ

    Digital marketing services, answered.

    What digital marketing services does Media Spearhead offer?

    Media Spearhead offers Google Ads management, SEO, Google Business Profile management, answer engine optimization (AEO) for AI search, website design, AI receptionists, reputation management and social media marketing. We also build landing pages, run multi-location campaigns and offer white-label services to other agencies. Every service is month-to-month.

    Which digital marketing service should a local business start with?

    Most local service businesses should start with the channel that matches their deadline. If you need calls this month, start with Google Ads and a tuned Google Business Profile. If you can wait three to six months, SEO and the Business Profile build an asset you don’t pay for per click. The plan builder on this page shows the order we use for each goal and budget.

    How much do digital marketing services cost at Media Spearhead?

    Google Ads management is $400 to $800 a month under $4,000 in ad spend, and $1,000 and up above that. SEO plans are $1,500, $2,500 or $3,500 a month. Google Business Profile management starts at $300 a month per profile. Landing pages cost $800 to $1,000, and 10 to 15 page websites cost $1,500 to $2,500. Ad spend is paid to Google directly and never bundled into our fee.

    Do you require long-term contracts?

    No. Every Media Spearhead plan is month-to-month with no cancellation fee. Our client retention is 95%, and we would rather earn that every month than lock it in with paperwork.

    Do I own my ad accounts, website and data?

    Yes. Google Ads accounts, Analytics, Tag Manager, your Business Profile, your domain and your website are set up in your name. If you ever leave, everything we built stays with you.

    How long does it take to see results?

    Google Ads can produce calls in the first week once tracking is live. Google Business Profile work shows up in the map pack over the following weeks as posts, reviews and categories improve. SEO usually takes three to six months for meaningful movement, and we tell you before you sign if your market needs longer.

    How is AEO different from SEO?

    SEO earns rankings in Google’s regular results. AEO (answer engine optimization) earns mentions inside AI answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google’s AI Mode. The two overlap, but AI assistants lean more on listings, directories, reviews and “best of” lists, so AEO adds work on those sources. You can check where you stand today with our free AI Visibility Checker.

    Do you only work with Florida businesses?

    No. Media Spearhead is based in Jacksonville, Florida, and runs campaigns for local service businesses in 36 states. Our local research goes deepest in Northeast Florida, but we do the same ZIP-level market research for any city before we quote.

    Who will manage my account?

    The founders, Richard Lacayo and Robert Samayoa, and a small senior team. You get a named strategist with direct access, not a rotating junior account manager.

    What industries do you work with?

    We work with more than 60 local service verticals, including HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical, law firms, dentists, med spas, chiropractors, auto repair, towing, moving, pest control and portable sanitation. Each industry gets its own keyword map, seasonality plan and landing pages.
