Ad Campaigns Built for Locksmiths, Launched in Minutes
A lockout is a five-minute-decision search, and the caller books the first locksmith who looks fast and close by. Tofu Ads Agent builds 24/7 emergency lockout campaigns and separate rekey, auto, and commercial ad sets so every job type gets found.
Tofu Ads Agent builds and launches paid campaigns for locksmith companies across Google Search and LinkedIn, with Meta coming soon. It structures always-on emergency lockout campaigns (home, auto, and commercial) separately from planned work like rekeys, lock upgrades, and commercial access system installs, since urgency and job value differ sharply between the two. The agent writes call-focused ad copy, groups keywords by lockout type and vehicle versus property, and sets service-area radius targeting so spend concentrates where a technician can actually respond within minutes. It also manages negative keyword lists to filter out key-cutting kiosk and hardware store searches that never convert into a dispatched job.
Why Locksmith Services advertising is different
A locksmith search is won in the first few minutes, day or night, so campaigns need to be fast, hyperlocal, and running around the clock.
- 24/7 lockout coverage Runs emergency campaigns around the clock with bid boosts overnight and on weekends, when lockouts spike and competition thins out.
- Job-type aware Separates a $75 car lockout from a $400 commercial rekey or access system quote so budget flows toward the calls worth the most.
- Response-radius targeting Targets by drive-time radius from each technician's territory so you are not paying for clicks you cannot service in minutes.
- Trust-forward creative Writes ad copy highlighting licensed, bonded, and insured credentials, which matters when someone is about to let a stranger open their door.

Frequently asked questions
Which platforms work best for locksmith ads?
Google Search is essential because lockouts are urgent, local, and searched in the moment. Google Local Services Ads (Google Guaranteed) adds trust for a service where someone lets a stranger near their locks. Meta is coming soon and will support retargeting past rekey and commercial security customers.
Can Tofu Ads Agent target specific service areas?
Yes. The agent builds drive-time radius targeting around each technician or branch location so spend concentrates on lockouts you can actually reach within minutes, not clicks from outside your response zone.
How does the agent handle emergency lockouts versus planned jobs?
Emergency lockouts get their own always-on campaign with 24/7 scheduling and aggressive bids, while rekeys, lock upgrades, and commercial access installs run in a separate campaign optimized for research-stage searches.
What is a good locksmith lead worth?
A car or home lockout often runs $75 to $200, while commercial rekeys and access control installs can run $500 to $3,000 or more, so the agent weights budget toward the higher-value commercial and rekey searches without starving emergency lockout volume.
Will the agent write the ad copy itself?
Yes. It writes multiple ad variations for each job type, tests them automatically, and keeps the versions that generate the most calls.
