Veteran-owned · Coraopolis, PA
Straightforward local ads, run by email.
Steel City Desk Works sets up and manages one advertising campaign on Google or Meta (Facebook and Instagram) for Pittsburgh-area small businesses. You keep the ad account in your name, you pay Google or Meta directly for ad spend, and you pay us a flat fee to run it. There are no calls.
- $249 a month to manage one campaign
- Optional $99 setup
- You pay Google or Meta directly
- Email only
Local Ads Starter
One platform to start — Google or Meta, not both. We work with one campaign and one service area. If you would rather not work by email, this is not the right fit.
Monthly management
$249 per month
We plan, build, and adjust one campaign in your ad account. Either side can stop at the end of a billing month, by email. You keep the ad account and its history. Our access is removed when the work ends.
Setup (optional)
$99 one-time
For the first account link, basic conversion tracking, and the first set of ads. This fee can be waived.
What's included each month
- A written plan for one campaign and one service area, sent by email for your okay before anything runs
- Ad copy and, when needed, simple images or short video ads
- Setup or updates in your ad account, using partner access (Meta) or a manager-account link (Google). We do not take ownership of the account
- Ongoing checks and small adjustments (bids, budget pacing, and copy tests) to stay inside the budget you set
- Up to two rounds of ad-copy or creative changes per month, by email
- A weekly email update, plus a simple one-page monthly report
Ad spend is separate. You (or your bookkeeper) add a payment method to your Google Ads or Meta ad account and pay those invoices yourself. A sensible starting range for many local service businesses is about $300–$500 of your money per month, on one campaign. That amount is your choice, not a required minimum. We will not charge it to our card or front it for you. We invoice only our setup and monthly fee.
Not included: website builds, extra platforms, heavy landing-page development, reputation management, or any work on personal social accounts. Veteran-benefits, government-benefits, and other tightly restricted ad categories are reviewed separately and are not part of this standard offer.
One-page website — $99
A simple one-page website for your business. We start with a free mockup.
One-page website
$99 total
Paid as two $49.50 card payments, by Square invoice.
Free mockup first
We make a mockup of your page first. If you don’t like it, you owe nothing.
Domain and hosting are separate. Those costs are quoted up front and are not included in the $99.
How we work
All planning, approvals, questions, and reports happen by email. If a phone call is required by Google or Meta for a one-time identity or phone check, that check is yours to complete; we will send written steps.
You write us
Send your business name, website or Google Business Profile, service area, and a monthly ad-spend cap you are comfortable with.
We send a plan
You get a short written plan and the access steps for your okay. No spend starts until you approve the plan and the first ads.
You keep the account
You link your Google Ads account to our manager account, or add us as a Meta partner and share the ad account. You keep ownership and the payment method.
What we need before ads can run
- A website or Google Business Profile people can visit after clicking an ad
- A contact who can reply by email, and complete any one-time Google or Meta ID or phone check
- Permission to link the ad account, and a payment method already on that account
- Your service area, the one service or offer to advertise first, and a monthly ad-spend cap
- Any required business details (legal name, address, license numbers if the platform asks for them)
- Written okay on the first ads and on the spend cap, before the campaign is switched on
The monthly report covers spend versus the cap you set; impressions, clicks, and cost per click; the main actions we can measure (calls, form fills, or visits), and any sales we can honestly attribute; plus what we changed and what we recommend next. We will not claim results we cannot measure. Clicks are not the same thing as customers.
Also on Fiverr

Get in touch
Tell us a little about your business and what you need help with. We’ll reply by email at matt@steelcitydeskworks.com. We don’t take calls.
Some drafting steps use AI-assisted tools (for example, first-pass ad copy or image layouts). Every ad, report, and email is reviewed before it goes to you or into an account. You approve the campaign plan and the first ads before spend starts.
