Ad management

Google Shopping and ecommerce ads

Google Shopping ads show your products, prices and images in Google results, fed from your catalogue through Merchant Center. I fix the feed and revenue tracking first, start with standard Shopping where conversion data is thin and add Performance Max once there's enough data, all against a break-even target that includes the fee.

Signs your Shopping ads need work

  • Products are disapproved in Merchant Center, or you're not sure whether they are
  • Everything runs through Performance Max with little conversion data behind it
  • Your best-margin products get the same budget as everything else
  • ROAS looks fine in the account and the business isn't making more money

What do I do?

I fix the feed and Merchant Center, set up revenue tracking you can trust and structure campaigns by margin so your best products get the budget. Standard Shopping runs while data is thin, and Performance Max comes in once there's enough for it to learn from.

What you get

  • A clean product feed and Merchant Center account
  • Revenue tracking checked against your store's own figures
  • Campaigns structured by margin
  • A true break-even ROAS that includes the fee
  • A plain-English monthly report

Worth knowing: I don't switch on Performance Max and leave it to Google. If your budget can't pay back a management fee, I'll point you to Set Up and Go instead.

What I think
Start with tightly targeted campaigns such as standard Shopping, build clean conversion data, then introduce Performance Max.
The mistake I see most
No revenue tracking in Google Analytics, so the owner has no real view of what Shopping earns them.

Questions people ask

Standard Shopping or Performance Max?

Standard Shopping first when the account has little conversion data, because Performance Max needs data to learn from. Performance Max once the account records enough conversions with values tracked.

Do you fix product feeds?

Yes. Titles, categories, prices, availability and disapprovals in Merchant Center are usually the first things to fix.
