Is your agency taking you

SEM isn’t sexy….
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
it’s not shiny and new…
PPC ads aren’t
the sexiest looking ads
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
It’s full on nerdy, but…
what’s behind the basic ad is so much more…
• targeting
• layering tactics & strategies
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
5.1 billion monthly mobile searches
and that is sexy!
…what it is: 17 billion monthly desktop searches*
that is a lot of customers searching for your products

Lets start at the beginning, and build a solid
foundation… then we can move to the fun stuff.

The basics are what trip up even the most
advanced professionals
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
Before you start
identify your goals.
Account and campaigns should be
aligned to your KPIs and goals.
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
What action do you
want the consumer to
take?
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
• Get information about specials / deals / offers
• Get directions to your dealership
• Get financing information
• Contact you directly
• Buy a Car

o Is your dealership local, regional or national?
o One location – Use campaign settings for targeting
o Regional – Use campaigns to geo-target each individual location
o National – Depending on the #, use either Accounts or Campaigns to target each
location
o Does your dealership sell multiple Brands of vehicles?
o Single to Few Makes of Auto:
o Use Campaigns for Make & Models
o Use Ad Groups for each Modifier sub-set
o Many Brands of Autos:
o If budget is controlled at the Make, use individual accounts
o If budget isn’t a concern, use Make+Model combined at the Campaign
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
Within your account structure
create unique campaigns
specifically for Brand

Structure Ad Groups
o Ad Groups should contain “like” terms and phrases
o Best Practices:
o Keep Ad Groups to <=50 keywords
o Have keywords across match types
o Use negative keywords to force match ad copy & content
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
how to choose the right keywords
• Start by brainstorming relevant keywords for products & services
• Review search term details (aka search query reports - SQR’s) frequently
CORE IDEA
• Tighter keyword organization = higher keyword relevancy

• Look at your Search Query Reports to see
if there are queries with “Stop Words”.
• Add those queries as unique keywords

Structure: Ad Copy & Landing Pages
o Keep Ad Copy and Landing Pages relevant to the keywords.
o Don’t drive all traffic to the homepage. Drive the traffic to the most relevant
page based on the keyword.
o Use the Keyword in the Title or Description Line 1
o Find ways to differentiate from other dealerships. Be different from your
competition. If all ads look the same why should a user clicks on yours?
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18

10 pitfalls uncovered in an audit
What you should get from
an agency
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
In 3 out of 5 audits I find issues
with the basics elements of paid
search.
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
1) Inconsistency with Campaign Settings
Campaigns are haphazardly set across the account.
Theory: Instead of creating new campaigns, old ones were
copied and pasted, but the settings weren’t updated.
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
1b) Not Following Best Practices
Campaign Settings Issues:
a) Network Settings – Targeting Search & Display together
• Best Practice: Break apart Search & Display!
b) Search Campaign Features – “Search Network – All
Features”
• Missing opportunities if you are not targeting all
features
c) Not evaluating if Google Search Partners works for you.
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
2) Location Targeting
Geo-Targeting settings for the Entire US
Recommended Settings for Location Targeting:
• Include: "People in my targeted location"
• Exclude: "People in my excluded location"
… but your business has set
physical locations
Recommended strategy: Target
geo’s where you business is
located
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
3) Language Targeting
What happens when you target English only?
A user with Spanish as their default browser
language searches for:
“Ford F150 Leasing Incentives”
The user person wouldn’t see your ad, even though they
searched in English.
It’s based off of their default language settings (not the
language your keyword and ad copy is written in.)
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
3) Language Targeting
Issue: In the US Targeting only English language
Why?
 Search Engines use computer & browser language
settings to determine language
 20-30% of the US population speak a 2nd language
at home
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
4) Delivery Method
• If there are limited budgets, recommend setting
to “Set to Standard – Show Evenly Over Time”
• This will reduce how many impressions you are
eligible for and will have your budget last through
the day.
Daily Budget $1000, CTR 10% , CPC $1
Eligible for 10,000 Impressions per day
~417 impressions each hour for 24 hours
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
4) Delivery Method
• If there are limited budgets, recommend setting
to “Set to Standard – Show Evenly Over Time”
Google takes your budget,
and estimates based on
your CTR how many
impressions you should
get each hour
With accelerated, you get
more impressions, but you
can run out of budget
during the day.
Recommendation:
Accelerated + day parting
Increased impressions during
the hours you convert
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
5) Mobile Bid Modifier either 0% or -100%
~30% of searches are done on a mobile device
• If you don’t have a mobile optimized site, move to -100%
• If you have a mobile optimized site, target somewhere
between -20% and -80%
• Look at mobile device performance and adjust the bids!
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
6) Ad Copy: # of Ads
• # Active Ads: Minimum of 2, Maximum of 4-6
• If you are using dynamic ad copy or ad
customizers always have a standard default ad
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
6) Ad Copy: Ad Rotation Settings
Scenario: You ran an ad copy test, found a
winner. Paused the “losing” ad copy…. BUT you
forgot to update the ad rotation settings.
• Ad Rotation:
• Rotate Evenly
• Optimize to Clicks
• Optimize to Conversions
Use when testing
Then optimize
against your
KPIs
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
7) Ad Copy is missing Ad Extensions
• Ad Extensions can boost CTR between 5%-50%
• Utilize the extra ad space to own the SERP!
•

7) Ad Extensions Cheat Sheet
bit.ly/PI-adextensions
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
8) Issues with Keywords
• Too Many Keywords per Ad Group
• More than 50 keywords
• Too Few Keywords per Ad Group
• # of Ad Groups with 2 or fewer keywords
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
8) Issues with Keywords
Lack of diversity in keyword match types.
• Want a mix of Broad, Phrase & Exact
Broad
Phrase
Exact
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
8) Issues with Negative Keywords
• Negative Keywords Blocking Actual Keywords
• Shared Library: Negative Keyword List
• Issue: Implemented once and then forgotten
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
8) Issues with Negative Keywords
• Search Query Reports haven’t been mined for
negative (or regular) keywords.
• Not having a negative keyword strategy:
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
9) Remarketing
If you have 100 visitors to your site and 3
convert…97 didn’t.
It’s easier to get 1 more of those 97 to
convert than it is find 33 more potentially
qualified customers.
-Katy Tonkin (@katytonkin) doing amazing math!
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
9) Issues with Remarketing
• Remarketing lists not created
• Lists are created but not gathering cookies
• Remarketing Lists for Search are not activated
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
10) Google Display Network
• Wasting ad spend on mobile app advertising!
• Exclude “adsenseformobileapps.com”
• Not diving into your display placements to
monitor what is performing and what is not
• Go beyond the site, and look at specific
placements on each site.

10 pitfalls uncovered in an audit
What you should get from
an agency
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
How to tell if you’re getting taken for a ride..
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
First and Foremost:
Share knowledge and insights.
You know your business better than
most agencies ever will.
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
Understand what you are signing
up for when you sign an agency
contract.
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
what type of service do you get from an agency?
“Click /
Starter”
Package
“Small
Business”
Package
Full Service
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
how agencies typically structure fee’s
Set Monthly Fee
% of Media Spend
Some combination of both
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
how agencies typically structure fee’s
If you are pure % of ad spend basis:
Think about how you can add in performance incentives
The concern: You ask me to spend more, but doesn’t that
just mean I give you more $$
For example: If you drive X conversions/sales, we’ll pay an
extra n% or $n
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
I’m going to let you in on a little secret.
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
How do agencies determine how
much time to spend on an account?
Billable rates can range from:
$50 - $100 / hour
Agency Fee = $1K/month
10 – 20 hours of work
What you also get is:
• Knowledge & insights from
managing across clients
• Multiple people working on your
account
• Access to tools & betas
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
When a “Corporation” sponsors an agency…
• Sometimes an auto manufacturer will have an
agency relationship
 It might mean that for a discounted fee they dictate:
• Keywords
• Ad Copy
• Promotional Materials
• Reach / Targeting
 What you get?
• Discounts on PPC services, but many times it’s
templatized
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
So.. What should you be getting from an
agency?
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
As the agency to use your AdWords Account.
(They can add it to their agency managed MCC.)
Then you “OWN” your data and performance
information.
It’s not proprietary, it’s not theirs. It is yours!
If you choose to move to a new agency, you take
it all with you.
You should get access to your data
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
If the agency won’t give you access…
ask for “Reporting Level Access”
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
Do you have a contact you can talk to or email?
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
• Regular reporting that shows performance metrics
Evaluate what you are getting for your $$
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
“I should get more than just a monthly report?”
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
What you should be getting from your agency
• Recommendations and Performance Review
• Regular Reporting
 Overall Performance
 Campaign / Ad Group Performance
 Top Keywords
• Initiatives / Expansions / Testing
• 30/60/90 days roadmap
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
what should you be discussing with an agency?
• Performance
• What is working and what is not
• Changes to goals, optimization targets and initiatives
• Changes to budget
• Promotions and Inventory Changes
• Sales for specific inventory
• Updates on Used/Pre-Owned inventory
• Offers / Deals
• New Incentive Programs coming
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18
If you aren’t sure what your agency is
doing… ask them
Ask Questions:
• What is the roadmap for the next 30/60/90 days?
• What are you testing?
• Are there more opportunities to increase conversions?
• Ask for a quarterly, bi-annual or annual review!
Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18

  • 31. Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 1) Inconsistency with Campaign Settings Campaigns are haphazardly set across the account.

  • 37. Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 Christi Olson | Point It | Director of SEM@ChristiJOlson #DD18 4) Delivery Method • If there are limited budgets, recommend setting to “Set to Standard – Show Evenly Over Time” Google takes your budget, and estimates based on your CTR how many impressions you should get each hour With accelerated, you get more impressions, but you can run out of budget during the day. Recommendation: Accelerated + day parting Increased impressions during the hours you convert
