Google Ads Audit Checklist for Med Spas

Use this Google Ads audit checklist for a med spa in order: set the service and location scope, validate treatment intent, test pages and consultation paths, reconcile bookings and attendance, review claims and consent, and compare collected value with practitioner and room capacity. Keep client details in approved systems.

This is an educational checklist, not medical, legal, privacy, or automated adz.so advice. Work from de-identified evidence and check Google Ads Help and the current healthcare and medicines policy.

1. Set scope and definitions

  • [ ] Record dates, locations, services, practitioners, supervision or responsible owners, hours, rooms, pages, phone numbers, forms, booking system, campaigns, budgets, and conversions.
  • [ ] State whether the decision concerns consultations, qualified demand, attendance, treatment acceptance, capacity, collection, or campaign efficiency.
  • [ ] Separate cosmetic services, medically supervised treatments, products, memberships, packages, and aftercare.
  • [ ] Define click, inquiry, consultation request, booked consultation, attended consultation, accepted treatment, completed treatment, deposit, refund, and collected payment.
  • [ ] Mark support, existing-client, duplicate, spam, cancelled, no-show, and unavailable-service contacts separately.

2. Check local targeting and treatment intent

  • [ ] Map every campaign to a location, service, practitioner, page, call route, booking path, and owner.
  • [ ] Review location targeting, exclusions, radius or city settings, location assets, office details, and practical travel area.
  • [ ] Classify search terms as local treatment demand, consultation, price or financing, existing-client support, product, adjacent service, competitor, job, supplier, or irrelevant.
  • [ ] Check that the requested treatment is available at the advertised location and that the page sets an accurate expectation.
  • [ ] Identify overlapping locations, out-of-area clicks, and searches with no responsible route.

Do not infer a person’s health, age, body concern, or eligibility from a search query. Test the account’s routing and claims instead.

3. Inspect ads, pages, and claims

  • [ ] Follow representative searches from query to ad, final URL, treatment page, call-to-action, form, phone, and booking confirmation.
  • [ ] Verify location, service, practitioner or supervision information, hours, contact route, and consultation instructions.
  • [ ] Review guarantee, before-and-after, price, discount, financing, availability, urgency, and outcome language.
  • [ ] Check that ad assets, landing-page copy, forms, and booking steps make consistent claims.
  • [ ] Assign an owner to every claim, policy, clinical, or compliance question.

4. Test calls, forms, and consultations

  • [ ] Use an approved test identity on mobile and desktop during open and after-hours conditions where relevant.
  • [ ] Confirm the displayed number, forwarding, response time, missed-call handling, disposition, recording notice, and source value.
  • [ ] Submit forms to test validation, required fields, consent, notice, confirmation, notification, duplicate handling, and source preservation.
  • [ ] Distinguish consultation request, reserved slot, confirmed consultation, attended consultation, and treatment booking.
  • [ ] Confirm existing-client, billing, product, employment, and supplier contacts are not acquisition conversions.

Keep names, photographs, symptoms, treatment history, payment details, and recordings out of the checklist.

5. Reconcile conversion stages

  • [ ] Compare clicks, calls, forms, and requests with qualified inquiries, booked consultations, attendance, recommendations, accepted treatment, completion, deposits, refunds, and collection.
  • [ ] Separate wrong numbers, spam, duplicates, cancellations, reschedules, and no-shows.
  • [ ] Confirm each conversion fires once with a documented definition, safe source identifier, owner, and timing.
  • [ ] Check scheduling or CRM joins for consent, deduplication, attribution, and cohort maturity.
  • [ ] Mark lower-funnel value unproven when the practice cannot document the join.

6. Review capacity and economics

  • [ ] Record consultation and treatment capacity by location, practitioner, service, day, hour, room, and treatment duration.
  • [ ] Identify demand that arrives when staff cannot respond or when the requested service has no suitable slot.
  • [ ] Compare spend and outcomes by office, service, campaign, search theme, device, page, and mature cohort.
  • [ ] Include collected revenue, deposits, refunds, payment or financing fees, practitioner time, room time, supplies, products, staff time, and follow-up.
  • [ ] Keep booked, billed, package, estimated future, and collected amounts distinct.
  • [ ] Mark missing cost, collection, or capacity assumptions as unknown.

Lead volume and return on ad spend do not by themselves prove treatment profitability.

7. Review consent and policy

  • [ ] Read current healthcare and medicines requirements for each target location and note restricted content or certification questions.
  • [ ] Review forms, analytics, audiences, remarketing, customer lists, call recordings, and conversion imports for consent and sensitive-data concerns.
  • [ ] Confirm only necessary data is collected and that retention, access, withdrawal, and vendor ownership are documented.
  • [ ] Check for guarantees, shame-based claims, individualized diagnosis implications, or unsupported outcome language.
  • [ ] Assign privacy, clinical, legal, or policy questions to the proper owner.

8. Close findings and retest

For every failed item, capture location, service, campaign, query or page, device, evidence, impact, owner, priority, action, proof condition, retest result, and limitation. Prioritize broken measurement, consent or policy risk, wrong routing, unusable booking paths, misleading claims, and missed calls before bid or budget changes.

After each repair, repeat the original test journey and compare a mature cohort with a comparable baseline. Annotate changes to staffing, treatment availability, prices, pages, phones, offers, and booking rules.
