Google ads catch people who already need help today. Meta ads create tomorrow's customers today. A service business with an empty calendar this week starts with Google, because the person searching already has the problem and the money ready. A service business with steady work now but a thin calendar next month adds Meta, because it fills the pipeline before the phone would otherwise ring. The strongest service businesses run both, with one follow up system that answers both fast. The budget split follows urgency: Google first when jobs are needed now, Meta first when the calendar needs filling next month, and both together once the booking rate proves the system works. 7Coxmos plans both channels around one number: cost per booked job.
