Google Local Services Ads → Performance Max Migration Guide 2026
Backup checklist, migration-day verification, budget/bidding changes and a 30-day stabilization plan for the new pay-per-lead workflow.
The SCRIPTMASTERLABS Local AI Business Series is a 2026 shelf of three local-business guides: LSA → Performance Max migration ($39), Business Profile + Gemini ($29), and local AI visibility ($29). The 3-pack is $69 one time, saving $28 off $97 — for plumbers, HVAC, electricians, roofers, cleaners, pest control, lawn care and movers after Google's August 2026 advertising changes.
A focused local-business shelf built around Google's 2026 Local Services Ads migration, Gemini-powered Business Profile workflows, and the practical work required to make a business easier to understand across Search, Maps and AI-assisted discovery.

Google says selected U.S. home and storefront service advertisers began transitioning from Local Services Ads into specialized Performance Max campaigns with pay-per-lead goals in August 2026. The pay-per-lead model and Search/Maps placements remain, while management and reporting move into Google Ads. Google also says historical Local Services Ads performance reports do not automatically transition.
The PDFs are the low-friction entry point. The same local-business surface can feed a future ScriptMasterLabs Local AI Visibility audit and a specialized Local Business Edition of AI SEO Agent OS without changing the core x402 product line.
Also useful alongside these: the Local SEO Checklist ($19 PDF) — a focused audit of listings, citations, and review workflows that sits underneath the AI-visibility work above.
