Google Ads has just announced a major update that will bring new features and capabilities to advertisers and marketers. These are some of the most exciting changes and how they can help you grow your business online.

This is a fully automated campaign type that uses Google’s machine learning to optimize your ads across all Google inventory, including Search, Display, YouTube, Gmail, and Discover. You can set your goals, budget, and audience, and with a close eye let Google do the rest. Performance Max campaigns are designed to help you reach more customers and drive more conversions, while saving you time and resources. Performance Max has been very successful for our eCommerce clients, but we are still testing the overall viability for lead gen.
