Your ads should be profitable! Here’s how
To get your ads to show, you need to ‘bid’ on each keyword in your account.
Bid too little, Google won’t show your ads. Bid too much, you’ll melt a credit card & soon throw in the towel. Finding just the right amount - for each keyword - is the key to long-term success with Google Ads.
In this episode we’ll decode the jargon, figure out what the right amount is for you & start to explore what “The Machine” is capable of.
