Why Take this Course?
This is Module 3 of a three-workshop series that covers how to place and manage Google Ads. Use digital advertising to reach your target audience in search engines to get leads and sales. A search in Google shows the user’s intent: they are looking for the product or service. When you place your ad at the top of Google, your ad appears in front of those people who are actively searching.
In this workshop, we’ll dig into the Google Ads engine. You’ll see how the bidding system works. This means you can use lower bids and lower budgets to get better results than your competitors. We’ll also discuss how Google Ads uses Quality Score to set the ranking position of your ad and how much you’ll pay for the click (your cost-per-click). You’ll be able to increase your Quality Score, which lets you lower your bids yet rank higher. You’ll see how to optimize your Google Ads account for maximum results by managing bids to KPIs. The workshop also covers additional software from Google that lets you manage dozens of accounts in one account.
Finally, we’ll show you how to manage Google Ads by time zones, continent, and language.
(Can’t attend the live workshop? No problem. These workshops are recorded, and we’ll send you the recording, workbook, and any supplementary materials within a day of completion after we’ve had time to edit the recording.)

Key Takeaways:
In this class you’ll learn:
- Google’s auction system and how the bidding algorithm works (with examples).
- Google Ads Quality Score determines your final bid and ranking. You’ll see how to improve your Quality Score so you can use a lower budget and lower bids, yet your ads will show more often, rank higher, and cost less per click than your competitors (you can bid $0.25 and rank higher than a competitor who bids $5.)
- How to set bids, manage bids, and manage your budget.
- How to use portfolio theory for your ads.
- How to calculate KPI’s (Key Performance Indicators). We’ll send you a KPI eBook.
- An example of a large account with 200,000 keywords where cost-per-click (CPC) fell from $0.76 to $0.07, clicks jumped up from 52 clicks per day to 17,650 clicks per day, and the click-through-rate (CTR) went from 0.12% to over 8%.
- We’ll look at a tool that lets you manage several Google Ads accounts. Another Google tool that lets you manage hundreds of thousands of keywords. These tools are available only by request from Google. We’ll show you how to get them.
- A series of slides cover how to manage global ad campaigns by time zone, continents, and languages.
- Finally, if you’re a non-profit, how to use Google Foundation Grants as a test bed for your Google Ads campaigns.
