I don’t know how to run shopping ads, and at this point I’m afraid to ask. - HeroConf 2018 Austin Presentation

I don’t know how to run shopping ads, and at this point I’m afraid to ask. - HeroConf 2018 Austin Presentation

10/25/19 UPDATE: Hello Facebook Agency Visitor Person!  We’re delighted to have you visit this awesome post. About a year ago, ZATO stopped offering Facebook Ads solutions so we could focus solely on what we do best: Google Ads. Because of this, we’re always interested in partnerships with great Social Advertising agencies (like yourself, wink wink!) and we offer referral fees for signed clients!  Anyway, back to it, and happy reading…

Post Summary

Howdy! If you're here, you might have attended my session in Austin on Shopping Ads. If so, welcome and you can find my slides and links here for additional research.

Even if you're been running Google AdWords or Bing Ads campaigns for years and are a true master of keywords, you may have never dipped into Google Shopping Ads before. In this session, we'll cover 4 main points of Shopping Ads as a great intro to doing Shopping Ads (also called PLAs) well.
