About Us
Book Boys is a free book pickup service that helps people get rid of unwanted books without the hassle of lifting, packing, or driving them anywhere.
We pick up books directly from homes, schools, offices, estate cleanouts, and organizations. The goal is simple: make donating books easy, keep books out of landfills, and help them find a second life through resale, redistribution, libraries, charities, community markets, and other outlets.
We are looking for an experienced ads specialist who can help us generate more pickup requests through Google Ads and Meta Ads.
What We Need
We need someone who can build, manage, test, and improve paid ad campaigns that drive real booking requests — not just clicks, impressions, or vanity metrics.
You should understand how to advertise a local service business and how to turn ad spend into leads.
This role is not for someone who only knows how to “boost posts.” We need someone who can think strategically, track results, test creatives, improve landing page performance, and explain what is working and what is not.

You will be responsible for:
Setting up and managing Google Search Ads for people looking for book donation, book pickup, book removal, estate cleanout help, downsizing, decluttering, and related services

Creating campaign structures for different service areas
Researching keywords and negative keywords
Writing ad copy that drives action
Creating or directing basic ad creative ideas
Setting up tracking for leads, form submissions, calls, and bookings
Improving conversion rates from ad traffic
Testing audiences, creatives, landing pages, offers, and messaging
Monitoring budget and performance
Sending clear weekly reports with results, problems, and next steps
Making recommendations to improve the website or booking funnel

You must have experience with:
Google Ads
Meta Ads Manager
Lead generation campaigns
Local service businesses
Conversion tracking
Google Analytics or similar tracking tools
Retargeting campaigns
Campaign reporting
Basic landing page and funnel strategy
What Success Looks Like
The goal is not “more traffic.”
The goal is more qualified pickup requests.
You should be able to help us answer:
How much does each lead cost?
Which campaign is producing the best leads?
Which area is most profitable to advertise in?
Which keywords are wasting money?
Which ads are bringing in real pickup requests?
Where are people dropping off before booking?
How do we lower cost per booked pickup over time?
