Veterinary clinics · Pay per click advertising
Pay to reach the owner searching for an emergency vet tonight.
PPC advertising for a veterinary clinic means paid search campaigns aimed at urgent and specific searches, such as emergency vet near me or a particular treatment. These run timed to when owners are actually searching. GullySales runs these with a radius set to who can realistically reach the clinic.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
What pay per click advertising means
Pay per click advertising (PPC) is paying a fee each time someone clicks your advert on Google or another platform. It puts you at the top of a search page immediately, instead of waiting for ranking to build. GullySales sets the targeting, writes the ad text and checks spend against enquiries received.

For veterinary clinics
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Emergency keywords deserve a higher bid despite the cost”
A search for emergency vet near me converts at a very high rate because the owner needs help immediately, which justifies a higher cost per click than routine terms.
“Time-of-day scheduling matters for this industry”
Ads for after-hours or emergency care should run when the clinic is actually open to answer, avoiding a missed call from someone who clicked outside hours.
“A tight radius avoids wasted spend”
Advertising to owners far from the clinic wastes budget on people unlikely to travel with a distressed pet, unlike a radius matched to a realistic drive time.
What we do
What we deliver for veterinary clinics.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A campaign built around emergency and urgent terms
A campaign targeting searches like emergency vet near me, bid deliberately higher than routine terms because of how urgently the owner needs an answer.
Result: The clinic appears for the search that matters most in a crisis.
Ad scheduling matched to opening hours
Ads for after-hours or emergency care scheduled to run only when someone is actually available to answer, avoiding a click that reaches no one.
Result: A distressed owner who clicks the ad reaches a live answer, not silence.
A radius set to a realistic drive time
Targeting limited to a distance an owner would reasonably travel with a distressed animal, instead of a wide, wasteful radius.
Result: Spend reaches owners who can actually reach the clinic.
Landing pages matched to the exact search
A page for emergency care and a separate one for routine services, each matching what the specific ad promised.
Result: The click lands on the answer the owner was actually searching for.
Spend and enquiry report by campaign
A report on spend, clicks and enquiries for each campaign, compared against the baseline recorded before the campaign began.
Result: You know exactly what each campaign is actually producing.
How the result is measured
- Cost per click
- Cost per enquiry
- Enquiries from paid search
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Searches to bid on and block
The searches worth paying for as a veterinary clinic, and the ones to keep out.
- Emergency searches, such as emergency vet near me
- Bid, and run it only when a vet or a nurse answers. An owner with an injured animal wants the clinic's address and a phone number at once. Show both and your night hours.
- Symptom searches, such as dog vomiting or cat not eating
- Be careful. Owners are worried, but many only want advice. Send them to a page that says when to bring the animal in and when to call, and do not diagnose from a page.
- Vaccination and sterilisation searches, such as puppy vaccination clinic
- Bid for these planned visits. The owner is comparing clinics, so show what the visit covers and how a booking is made, and tie the visit to your reminder routine for later boosters.
- Farm and large animal searches, such as cattle vet visit
- Bid only if you send a vet to farms, and say your travel area on the page. The caller needs a visit, so a campaign for a clinic address would waste the click.
- Pet shop, food and adoption searches, such as puppies for sale or dog food
- Block. Add pet boarding and grooming unless you offer them, as well as lost pet. These people want to buy or find something, not to see a vet.
- Where the click lands
- Send an emergency click to a page with the phone number, the address and a map first. A routine click can go to a booking page that asks the pet, its age and the reason for the visit.

Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
