Google Ads Tutorial: How To Do Keyword Research With Keyword Planner

So to go into your keyword planner, all you need to do is, you go to tools and settings and then keyword planner, and you'll come in here, you enter the keyword. So today I'm going to go after life insurance or not go after, but somebody had sent me a request to help them organize their keywords; so they wanted me to do this exercise for them. I put in the life insurance, you will see a long list of keywords in here. Now if your account is fairly new, you may not get all the actual average monthly searches, you might get something like 10 to a 100 or 100 to a 1000 or something like that. As you start to use your Google ads account, you are going to get a lot more accurate data here. My screen may look a little bit different from yours.

We've got quite a few keywords in here, then on the right-hand side, they have this refined keywords in beta, so what it does is, it gives us really good ideas and how to group our keywords and how to set up our ad groups. So under this tab, you've got brand on non-brand keywords, with the brand keywords you can see that you've got all these company names like SunLife, Productive Life, MetLife, Prudential, and so on. And there are a lot more in here, so these are what Google classifies them as a brand keyword; so if you don't offer life insurance for let's say AXA equitable, then you can put them as a negative keyword. And it has got some more over here, other brands, and we've got some more sections over here, I'll just close this. So we've got the products, this gives us a really good idea as to what we've got in here, in our keyword list.

So we've got term insurance, 92 keywords, and if you hover your mouse on it, it's going to give you the number of keywords, as well as the average monthly search volume, 20,950. Then we've got types of life insurance, so this is someone who's looking or wanting to start life insurance, and want to find out a bit more; so that's quite a relevant or targeted audience. So you can see that the search volume is a little bit less and so on. Now I can see that these are the types of insurance or the life insurance policies, which people are looking for. That's really good; so we need to group them in, and set up our ad groups accordingly with the right keywords; and obviously, once you've got a really tightly knit ad group with great or relevant or similar keywords, then your ads are going to be a lot more relevant for your keywords. Insurance type, loan type, and others...Okay. So the next thing you want to do is to download all the keywords by clicking on this little link on the top right-hand corner, and it's going to give you a CSV file, which you can then import into other Excel spreadsheet or Google sheets.

I've created a sheet that will help you easily and very quickly sort out all these keywords without breaking a sweat. I've got all the keywords in here, so I copy these keywords and I go to my keyword tab, now to get access to this file, I'll put in the link in the comment box on the video page or the watch page. Please don't ask for access because I won't be able to do that, all you do is you, once you go to that link, you go to file, make a copy, save it onto your Google account, and then you can use it as much as you want. So then what you want to do is, you go to the keyword tab and you paste the keywords, I tend to paste the keywords and the number of searches in here. I've got all of these, how many have we got? About 534, 530 odd keywords, right? Some of them will be low volume.

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...
