Step Relief
The Challenge
Step Relief Healthcare is an allied health clinic in Melbourne’s west, offering podiatry alongside osteopathy and dietetics from its Maribyrnong clinic. Podiatry is a crowded local search market, where people compare several nearby clinics on Google before they book. The brief was to grow Step Relief’s visibility in organic search and Google Maps, and to turn paid search into a steady, measurable source of new patient bookings.
The Solution
Pivotal Agency ran SEO and Google Business Profile work side by side, so Step Relief shows up both in organic results and in the local map pack. Google Ads launched in December 2025, and in July 2026 we rebuilt the account around a single, tightly managed search campaign. We connected conversion tracking to Step Relief’s Cliniko booking system, so the account optimises towards completed online bookings rather than button clicks, and added call tracking for phone enquiries. Every channel reports into one AgencyAnalytics dashboard, giving the clinic a clear monthly view of what is working.
Results
From April to September 2026, Step Relief earned more organic clicks from Google than in the same month of 2025 in every one of the six months, and more people called, requested directions or visited the website from its Google Business Profile. Over the same period, Google Ads produced a steady flow of enquiries, with 8.8% of ad clicks turning into a booking, call or form enquiry.
