Advice I would give to new people in PPC. Don't worry if the suggestions you apply from the PPC guru you follow don't work for your clients. Every client is different, and not 1 strategy suits all. Test, take risks & react fast. #PPC #PPCadvice #PPCProfessional #PaidAds

Happens often, junior & mid level PPC execs who manage these accounts, have no clue about tracking or even how to check the legitimacy when they inherit or set up accounts. It is made worse that the top level in the companies CBA to even show/teach them.
Reviewing one of the dirtiest Google Ads accounts I've ever seen right now. Agency reports 100 thousands of conversions (they counted site visits). Look into actual conversion actions & history... $24.969,52 for 1 actual conversion (ticket sale). Brutal.

A search for “marathon training plan” in Google probably means they need running shoes, fitness trackers, etc. But on YouTube they might want to watch Shorts about what people ate to prep. There’s no way to be sure of intent, so the “next step” has to be truly compelling.

GenAI capabilities are coming to Search. In a new experiment in Search Labs called Search Generative Experience (SGE), AI-powered snapshots will show key info. You can click links to dig in or ask follow-up Qs in a new conversational mode. #GoogleIO 1/3

I just let Google Ads create a responsive search ad for me! I feel dirty! The ad was not great, but it was useable enough for me to test it out. Obviously, they don't do pins, so I had to edit this and some headlines. But I feel like a traitor 🥶 #GoogleAds #RSA #PPC

I talk to eCommerce founders almost every day. I am shocked that 90% of them haven't calculated how much they can afford to profitably acquire a customer. So let's break down a simple way to work it out.

Still need to switch from #GA3 goals to #GA4 goals? When importing/setting up a goal to replace GA3 in Ads, add this as a secondary goal (not primary). Let the data build up then switch to primary. #PPC pros will know this, but starter levels may not. #Marketingtwitter #DM

Update, I now have a 3 year old and nearly 1 year old. Tip: If you only have 1, stop whilst you're ahead, no idea as to what I was thinking 😅. The plan was 3... the plan has now changed 🏳️‍
Working from home with a nearly 2 year old who is tired but fighting it OMG! Tips welcome!! 🤯

Brand campaign tip: Want to run a brand campaign but skip existing users? Run a manual brand campaign, add a remarketing list (all users) and exclude this audience or reduce the bid by 90% your choice. #PPC #GoogleAds #PPCTips #DigitalMarketing

🙌🏾 I try to preach this. Just keep it simple. Any time I speak to my clients who don't know the jibber jabba, I ensure I go slow and try to speak their language (which is tough as I can barely speak my own 🙂)
Marketers on LinkedIn talk like they’re part of some secret cult. The Q3 demand gen effort for our ICP resulted in the best product led dark funnel. Sounds very professional! Thanks to our ACV gated leads the go to market prospects got a 150% pipeline increase. Too bad most of their potential customers can’t understand what they’re saying.

For cheaper Facebook ads, do this: Let's say you sell Stilton cheese Create a 'self selecting' page called: I LOVE Stilton Cheese Run a broad campaign for dirt cheap page likes ($0.10-20) After 1000+ likes, advertise your Stilton Cheese to a 2% lookalike of your page likes

#BroadAd An #RSA ad with no pinning. Non pinned RSA's are the equivalent to a broad matched KW but on the ads side. They can be good sometimes, but the other 80% of the time 👎🏾. #Tip: You can hack your ad score by adding a KW insertion (if you care that much). #PPC #GoogleAds
