Ignite Digital Wins the AVA Platinum Award for Best Google Ads Local Store Growth

Ignite Digital walked away with a Platinum Award—the top honor available—at the 2025 AVA Digital Awards. We won in the Best Google Ads Local Store Growth category, a win vetted by the Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals (AMCP). What earned us the top spot?

We built a hyper-localized search strategy that turned online searches into actual foot traffic for physical stores. It wasn’t just about getting clicks; it was about the technical side of location-based targeting and making sure those digital ads resulted in real-world customers.

This Platinum win is more than just a trophy for the shelf. It’s solid, third-party proof that we know how to handle the high-stakes world of local search. While general awards are nice, this category-specific win shows we have the specialized skills needed to grow brick-and-mortar businesses using Google Ads. Want to see the proof?
