Campaign Strategy: Goals & Setup

When setting up your campaigns, it’s important to start with clear goals and objectives. What are you trying to accomplish? Are you looking to drive more traffic, increase conversions or maximize ROI? Once you’ve identified your goals, you can set up your campaigns accordingly, with the right audiences, bids and targeting.

Audience Signals & Bidding Strategy

Once you’ve set up your campaigns, you’ll want to start leveraging audience signals and a bidding strategy. Audience signals let you target the right people with the right message, while a bidding strategy allows you to optimize for the best results.

Listing Groups & Product Feed

Listing groups and product feeds are also important when it comes to maximizing your shopping performance. Listing groups allow you to group similar products into one ad unit, while product feeds let you pull in data from your product listings and display it in your ads.
