Your Mileage May Vary… We had two great chats in the PPC Chat community this week with Ginny Marvin of Google Ads discussing Google Marketing Live and all of the new features and recommendations that came out of it. Lots of talk about AI generated content and assets, ads appearing in AI search results, the role of Ad Strength in our accounts and the role of Optiscore. One of my big takeaways was a reminder that every account is different. I mean, we all know this, but it is easy to get caught up in the hoopla of an event like GML and temporarily forget this basic tenet of PPC. The most important concept for you to remember as you sift through all of the GML announcements and begin to think about how/if they might work in your accounts is that your mileage may vary. We all know that much of what gets announced at this event is very e-commerce and large brand focused. And that’s ok. In some ways e-commerce is easier to solve for than lead generation when it comes to an ad platform. E-commerce has quick results (sale or no sale) whereas lead generation often has a much more meandering path to conversion. Again, that is ok. So when you’re thinking about things like Ad Strength or Optiscore, you want to be sure that you’re looking at what is best for your business (or your client’s business) when weighing actions to take and things to test. Google Ads might “think” your setup is less than optimal, but it might just work great for your account. Understanding that the diagnostic metrics you see in our account are just that - diagnostic from Google’s perspective, can save some headaches. Which announced features are you most interested in exploring? Which ones are giving you heartburn?
