Best Practices
- It’s recommended that you plan and optimise you Google Ads campaigns at least on a monthly basis. There are fluctuating actions, competitors and seasonality that have to be taken in consideration.
- Don’t add all brand and generic campaigns into the same plan. Different campaigns often have different marketing objectives. Incremental conversions are achieved if you create separate plans for each marketing objective.
- By default, Performance Planner will forecast conversions based on what’s included in the Conversions column in your Google Ads front end. To allocate budgets that drive incremental conversions, set bids and budgets using non-last click conversions in your Conversions column.
- Forecasts improve when plans are generated closer to the actual run date. Make sure to regularly check back on your plan before implementing it.
