Learn Google Ads: Creating Gmail Ad Group & Keywords


Then we come to creating your ad group, you name your ad group.  I tend to name the ad groups as per the targeting, so if it's an ad group for let's say keyword targeting, I'll call it ‘keyword’, or if I am running in-market targeting and in-market audience, then I'll call it  ‘in-market’, it depends on how you have your naming convention. Keep it consistent so that they are the same for all your Gmail video GDN search campaigns.

Now you have the important bit, this is where you can make or break your campaign. What I would do is keep one ad group for keywords, one for the audience, and then run it and see which one is performing better, it's not very complicated here, you don't have a lot of options. All you do is go in here and you can either get keyword ideas from your website or product or service.

Now here's something where you can hit your competitors. Google or Gmail knows the content of that email. So, if a person has sent an email to their friend and asked them “which phone would you recommend?” And that person replies “iPhone”, that email/conversation is about iPhone. So if you are selling an iPhone, you can have all your targeted keywords in here and potentially your ad can go into that at the top of Gmail for that email. You can do the same thing for your competitors. If somebody is recommending your competitor, your ad can pop up and this strategy is not used by a lot of people and it's extremely powerful!

I would just add up all these keywords in here and I'm not going to overlay that with my audience because then I'm going to narrow it down. But if you were to create another ad group and then you can either target an in-market audience or a custom audience or a website visitor, you can have a remarketing audience or you can get some ideas from here as well as to who you wish to target. So when you are targeting all these audiences, try to keep them separate in an ad group, it's very quick and easy to do this in the Google Ads editor. Copy and paste the ad groups with the ads in there already and all you do is change the name of the audience and name of the ad group and then you're pretty much good to go.

Your Customers Aren’t Cold: Your Message Is: The Art of Authentic Connection

Imagine pouring your heart into a sales pitch, crafting the perfect email, or spending hours on a marketing campaign, only to be met with silence. Does it feel like your potential customers are simply “cold” or uninterested? What if their indifference isn’t a reflection of their buying intent, but rather a symptom of miscommunication? What if the problem isn’t them, but the way you’re speaking to them? This isn’t about blaming your efforts, but empowering them with a new perspective on customer engagement and effective communication. Understanding the Myth of the ‘Cold’ Customer The term “cold customer” is often a misnomer, a convenient label for when outreach isn’t yielding results. It implies a lack of interest, but often, this perceived coldness isn’t deep-seated rejection; it’s a superficial reaction to messaging that doesn’t resonate. For small business owners and non-technical readers, understanding this distinction transforms their entire approach to sales and marketing communic...
