    What Deck Builders Need to Know About Paid Ads, AI & Automation

    Paid ads aren’t what they used to be—and if you’re running Google Ads the same way you did even a year ago, you’re already falling behind. In this episode, April sits down with Vinita Swami, PPC Specialist at Deck Builder Marketers, to break down what’s actually changing in paid ads right now.
