Google & Bing shopping ads
Balance automation with hands-on oversight to demystify the true value of paid shopping
Take back control from Google
Our approach to paid shopping is granular, time-intensive to set up, and requires careful maintenance – the opposite of what Google pushes agencies to do (i.e. turn control over to its algorithms). We do this because we believe the value of paid shopping starts with learning.
More manual control gives us more visibility. Which products and categories are your top performers? Is Google favoring the right ones? Where can you push harder and scale? Where are you close to saturation and diminishing returns?
When shopping campaigns are on auto-pilot, those questions go unanswered. With our approach, we can continually fine tune your account to squeeze out the best ROI and insights.
