Most companies use Google AdWords to target desirable search terms with specific text advertising, and only pay for each click (rather than impression). PPC advertising can be very cost-effective when managed properly, due to the ability to target keywords, specific geo-locations, messaging and landing pages. Unfortunately, many small businesses do not have the time or resources to effectively manage PPC campaigns, which can lead to very costly mistakes. The Formic team will walk you through PPC campaign research, planning, implementation and management. You will leave this seminar with sufficient knowledge of how to optimize your existing PPPC campaigns or create a new campaign from scratch.
