Want to start or improve your eCommerce campaigns on Google Adwords?
Paid search is a major source of traffic for eCommerce stores, and Google Adwords is one of the most popular paid advertising platforms. In fact, according to Merkle, Google accounted for 71% of all U.S. digital ad spending in Q2 of 2018.
Google ads are paid online advertisements that are bought by eCommerce businesses to have their product advertised on the top ad space of Google search results.
Advertisements cost money and ad platforms are complex to navigate, so ad agencies are hired to manage ad campaigns for businesses (especially new businesses) who want to advertise but do not have the in-house talent and resources to handle it themselves.
Ads are shown in google search results.
Show adverts on websites and apps across the Internet.
Show image ads for products on Google Shopping.
Show adverts to people who have visited your website.
Ads are shown before, during, or after videos on YouTube.

There are countless AdWords management providers out there, so how do you know which is right for you?
Here are 3 tips on what to look for when choosing a provider:
The service provider should have at least a few years of experience in running successful ad campaigns. Look for how long they have been as a registered business. Find out on LinkedIn how many people work there and what their level of experience is. You could also try to find any reviews or feedback from the clients they have worked with. There is no clear-cut way to evaluate expertise, but at the very least, make sure they have some kind of proven track record.
The provider should have a large portfolio of accounts, so they have the experience and resources to manage your campaign cost effectively. Do they have case studies about their Google Ads clients? What was the size of these businesses? How did they improve their results?
Anyone can claim to be an expert in anything on the internet. But, how do you know if they are speaking out of their ass, or being transparent and truthful about their claims? The easiest way to find out is to ask the hard questions, in the form of "how" and "why". See how professional and immediate is the response. Usually, the person who is an "expert", has a vast knowledge about the topic and should be able to offer a detailed and logical response(so that the client understands).
The AdWords management service providers should be able to tell you what type of AdWords campaign is currently in place, how it's performing, and what action steps to take in order to improve. Here are some of the "hard" questions you could ask from your potential prospects:
Having many good questions will help you determine the level of their experience, expertise, and depth of knowledge.
The cost of Google Adwords management services is dependent on the agency.
Most AdWords management services will charge a monthly (fixed) management fee plus a percentage(%) of ad spend.
The industry average AdWords management fee is usually around 15% ad spend and monthly AdWords management service fees start from $500+ per month depending on the size of the account, ads spend, and other factors.
The cost of AdWords management services at an agency vary greatly due to the fact that AdWords management services are dependent on so many different factors such as:
You can expect to pay anywhere between $500 and $20,000 per month for AdWords management services at an ad agency.
The reason why ad agencies charge so much is that AdWords management services require a multitude of different skill sets to be able to deliver results that meet your goals. It takes years of Adwords management experience to fully understand the AdWords platform and all of its features.
The AdWords management services team at an ad agency uses a combination of their knowledge, AdWords certifications, years of experience, and advanced tracking & analytics tools to deliver results that match your targets.
PPC management services offered by an agency are usually far more affordable than managing the AdWords campaigns yourself. Advertising dollars can be quickly wasted if you don’t have the AdWords management skills or experience.
Here are just some of the common reasons for wasted ad spend:
So, if you are looking to get the most value per dollar spend, it is important to work with an AdWords management service that can help you avoid these mistakes and make more money!
