Promotion Extensions
All these years, we were forced to use the Google’s Ad headlines and descriptions to share our promotions. But, that’s not the case anymore!
Promotional Extensions allow you to advertise, highlight and show and link a specific promotional offer on your search network.

This new feature does not overlap the headline of your Ads. You have got enough space to attract the customers with CTA and talk about the discounts. However, not all marketing agencies are doing it right and which why you need to forge business relationship with trusted agencies like Improve & Grow. The agency that you choose must know what they are doing otherwise you will end up spending more money on marketing campaign.
Ad Variation
If you are running multiple Ad campaigns, it is necessary to identify the performance of each campaign. The success of the campaigns are measured with different metrics like Click through rate (CTR), Form completion, App installation, Sign up (email / Newsletter) or downloads.
