// what it is

What Lead Radar looks for.

Lead Radar builds a watched set of companies that match your targeting and checks Google's Ads Transparency data for each one weekly. A company can show up on its first check if it is running ads.

// why it works

Why it means buying.

Ad spend is a live budget, not a plan. A company running search ads cares about cost per lead, conversion and pipeline this month, and those are easy conversations to start with something specific.
