Search ads can produce leads on day one because you're catching demand that already exists. The first 2–4 weeks are about cutting wasted spend and finding the keywords and ads that convert cheapest, then scaling them.
Search Ads buy instant visibility at the top of results; SEO builds visibility you own over months. The strongest play is both — ads for immediate lead flow while SEO compounds underneath to lower your long-term cost per lead.
