6/ Myth #5: Every business benefits from Google Ads.

Not necessarily.

If your audience isn’t online or isn’t searching for your offering, Google Ads may not be the best fit.

5/ Myth #4: Google Ads is easy to run yourself.

Sure, you can DIY a campaign.

But running effective campaigns? That’s a different ballgame.

- Targeting
- Creative strategy
- Landing page optimization

Hiring a pro is often worth the investment. 🤝

4/ Myth #3: Google Ads can replace SEO.

Tempting, right? Just skip the long grind of SEO and buy your way to the top.

Here’s the issue: ads are like your store’s display window—they showcase a few things. SEO is your entire store. You need both to thrive in search. 🛍️

3/ Myth #2: There’s no minimum budget for success.

Practically?

Spend too little, and:
- Your ads won’t reach enough of your audience.
- Your cost per result may skyrocket.

For meaningful results, you need a realistic budget
tailored to your industry and goals. 💰

2/ Myth #1: Google Ads can be turned on/off like a tap.

Yes, campaigns can be nimble, but don’t expect instant results.

New campaigns often require weeks to optimize. Think of it as a car: you need a break-in period before you hit peak performance. 🚗

6/ Get ready for hyperlocal ads by:
- Optimizing your Google My Business profile
- Creating location-specific offers
- Running automated local ad campaigns tailored to customer needs
The closer you are to the customer, the better. 🌎
November 20, 2024 at 11:25 PM
5/ 🗺️ Hyperlocal targeting will dominate.
With platforms like Google Maps becoming key for local search, expect ads to show up directly on maps. Whether it’s “pizza near me” or “closest gas station,” local ads will be prime real estate.
November 20, 2024 at 11:25 PM
4/ Here’s how you can prepare for AI-powered ads:
- Write conversational ad copy (short & natural for voice/text).
- Focus on customer intent, not exact keywords.
- Use automated, intent-driven bidding strategies.
Let AI handle the targeting while you focus on messaging. 🤖

3/ 💬 Conversational AI is taking over.
Imagine users interacting with an AI assistant, asking, “Where’s the best coffee nearby?” Instead of a SERP, they’ll get:
- 1-2 options tailored to their preferences
- Local businesses featured through paid ads
Are your ads ready for the shift?
November 20, 2024 at 11:25 PM
2/ The old model of Google Ads relied on:
- Keywords
- SERP rankings
- Text-based formats
Soon, these will no longer be the core drivers. Instead, search ads will focus on user intent, AI-driven targeting, and hyperlocal contexts. 🔍

5/ This approach works in writing, business, and life—let the right processes handle the routine so you can focus on the creative, strategic side of things.
November 14, 2024 at 3:22 PM
4/ I calendarize routine tasks, keep my space tidy as I go, and let discipline drive me. The less I have to think about when to do something, the more energy I can invest in what to do.
November 14, 2024 at 3:22 PM
3/ By writing consistently—every two weeks—I’ve produced 25 posts in a year. But here’s the kicker: that regularity isn’t about perfection. It’s about making things easier for myself.

2/ In my earlier post on Growth Unlocked, I explore how being lazy can actually help you optimize for better results. Intrigued? Let me explain...

I, and many successful AI users I know, really use AI in a way that compliments or augments what we do. As a result it makes us more productive. And this, I would argue, is the best use of AI in its current form. (3/3)
