For instance, Google tracks every download, click, and impression of the users in its entire platform.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine the amount of data generated by users across the world every second. The data is unimaginable. The amount of data produced by your client\u2019s ad campaigns is humongous and can easily overwhelm you.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, today\u2019s world is driven by Big Data. Businesses are increasingly leveraging their data to make insight-driven decisions.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4345\" style=\"max-width: 80%;\" src=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/google-ads-time-of-day-1.jpg\" alt=\"Google Ads Time of Day\"><\/div>\n<p>Data is the \u2018new oil\u2019 in the PPC landscape.

Imagine sifting through your massive data only to discover you are dealing with outliers or one-off occurrences.<\/p>\n<p>Remember earlier on we compared pay-per-click marketing to nuclear physics.<\/p>\n<p>Well, here\u2019s another reason.<\/p>\n<p>Search engine marketing (SEM) is highly influenced by various factors that are out of your control, such as changes in users\u2019 tastes and preferences.<\/p>\n<p>Unless you have a brain with quantum computing power, keeping up with changes that influence your clients\u2019 ad campaigns is almost next to impossible.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>You are likely to make errors while trying to keep up with the speed of the changes. Essentially, keeping up with each and every change that can potentially break or make your clients\u2019 campaign is next to impossible.<\/p>\n<p>You need to automate some aspects of your <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/ppc-management-agencies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PPC management<\/a> to keep your clients\u2019 ROI positive and steady and <strong>most importantly, save time<\/strong>.

In other words, you need to demonstrate to your clients that your edge over the house is beyond doubt profitable.<\/p>\n<p>A profitable PPC advertising entails keeping tabs on shifts and trends to take effective measures to adapt (be proactive). Watching for shifts and trends in your ad campaigns manually is not an option. Not in today\u2019s pay-per-click (PPC) marketing<\/p>\n<p>To keep up with your competition, you need to create some spare time to create strategic goals, such as attracting and retaining new clients.<\/p>\n<p>Most <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/analytical-skills-in-marketing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PPC managers<\/a> find the number of tasks to be executed at their disposal outweighs the time available.

You need extra time to widen your strategic goals<\/h4>\n<p>Every business has a set of strategic goals that can be classified as either short, mid, or long term. Scaling is one of the common strategic goals for a business looking forward to claiming its share in its respective industry.<\/p>\n<p>PPC ad agencies are no different from other businesses.<\/p>\n<p>As a PPC manager, you need some time to craft sustainable goals for attracting and retaining more clients for more revenues.<\/p>\n<p>How can you achieve your strategic goals if you\u2019re ever preoccupied with tasks that can be automated easily?<\/p>\n<h4>\u00a0 2. Saving Time on Incremental Basis Cut Costs in Long Term<\/h4>\n<p>The practice of conserving time in small proportions can have a diminishing effect on your costs.<\/p>\n<p>The more you save your time, the more you cut costs in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>The extra time you manage to carve out of your busy schedule can help you come with innovative and creative ways to trim your overheads. Automating recurring PPC tasks can not only help you cut human resources costs but also save tremendous amounts of time.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4345\" style=\"max-width: 80%;\" src=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/google-ads-time-of-day-3.jpg\" alt=\"Google Ads Time of Day\"><\/div>\n<h4>\u00a0 3. Optimal Work-Life Balance<\/h4>\n<p>Work-life balance is an important aspect of a healthy work environment. Maintaining a work-life balance helps reduce stress and burnout at the workplace.<\/p>\n<p>Chronic stress is one of the most common health issues in the workplace. If you are from digital marketing background,<\/p>\n<p>it can lead to physical consequences such as hypertension, digestive troubles, chronic aches and pains, and heart problems. Chronic stress can also negatively impact mental health because it\u2019s linked to a higher risk of depression, anxiety, and insomnia.<\/p>\n<p>Are you wondering how work-life balance comes in pay-per-click marketing?<\/p>\n<p>Well, <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/sem-audit-checklist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">search engine marketing (SEM)<\/a> is daunting and can easily occupy a huge chunk of your time in a day.

Remember, your mental health plays a significant role during the <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/what-is-ppc-campaign-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">decision-making process<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>You need to be sharp at all times.<\/p>\n<p>Factors that influence your clients\u2019 ad campaigns, such as new tastes and preferences can easily catch you off-guard.<\/p>\n<p>To maintain a healthy mental state, you need to have an optimal work-life balance. The only way to squeeze extra time from your busy schedule is by letting technology take over time-intensive tasks.<\/p>\n<h4>\u00a0 4. Saving a Few Hours a Day Facilitates You To Creatively \u2018Wear Many Hats\u2019<\/h4>\n<p>The current recession due to the Coronavirus pandemic is really taking a toll on <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/what-is-data-visualization-used-for\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">small and medium-sized businesses (SMB)<\/a> all over the world.<\/p>\n<p>Pay-per-click advertising agencies have not been spared either.<\/p>\n<p>Hard times, such as the prevailing recession forces businesses to think creatively to shore up their revenues.<\/p>\n<p>Where can you get time to think creatively if you\u2019re ever occupied by tasks that can easily be accomplished via automation?<\/p>\n<p>Without enough time at your disposal, you\u2019re less likely to think strategically to grow your client list in the long term. Growing PPC agencies can easily catch up with enterprise-level agencies if they have extra time to experiment creatively.<\/p>\n<p>Innovations and smart strategies are born out of experimenting and making mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>How many elements did Thomas Edison experiment with before coming up with what shifted the current civilization from the dark ages, i.e., a working bulb?<\/p>\n<p>You guessed it right.

It Facilitates Easy Implementation of the 1% Continuous Improvement (Kaizen) Strategy<\/h4>\n<p>Optimizing your clients\u2019 ad campaigns by 1% on a daily basis can drive a whopping 3,778% improvement after 12 months.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s the 1% improvement?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/ppc-optimization-techniques\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The 1% improvement rule<\/a> is essentially the understanding that small gains (as little as a 1% change) will ultimately add up to massive improvement over time.<\/p>\n<p>These slight improvements add up quickly. In fact, they add up exponentially. If you strive to improve 1% every day for a whole year, your accumulative advantage would equal a 3,778% increase.<\/p>\n<p>Incredible, right?<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, it\u2019s hard to keep a constant upwards trend and there may be days when that 1% change is in the opposite direction.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that positive changes have a much more significant impact than negative ones. An off day won\u2019t ruin all your hard work!<\/p>\n<p>How can you achieve 1% continuous growth?<\/p>\n<p>You need solid strategies to save time, such as automating tasks that are relatively less significant and are incredibly time-consuming. For instance, sifting through your massive campaign data for actionable insights.<\/p>\n<h2>Time concepts and Pay-per-Click (PPC) Advertising<\/h2>\n<h3>\u201cA Stitch in Time Saves 9\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>The phrase basically means it&#8217;s better to solve a problem right away, to stop it from becoming a much bigger one.<\/p>\n<p>People use \u201ca stitch in time saves nine&#8221; to express that it&#8217;s better to spend a little time and effort to deal with a problem right now than to wait until later, when it may get worse and take longer to deal with.<\/p>\n<p>How is this saying relevant to pay-per-click (PPC) marketing?<\/p>\n<p>Like we said earlier, paid search marketing is marred with a massive amount of data. Essentially, all the activities of your target users are aggregated by Google and provided to you in granular and tabular form.<\/p>\n<p>The data is only worth gold to you if you\u2019re able to extract <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/what-is-an-insight-in-advertising\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">meaningful insights<\/a> to optimize your clients\u2019 ad campaigns continuously.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, only mountains are static.<\/p>\n<p>Everything else is dynamic and changing. Changes are everywhere. These changes can either make or break your PPC ad campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>You need to make continuous improvements to keep up with changes proactively.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4345\" style=\"max-width: 80%;\" src=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/google-ads-time-of-day-5.jpg\" alt=\"Google Ads Time of Day\"><\/div>\n<h3>What\u2019s Kaizen?<\/h3>\n<p>Kaizen is a Japanese term for continuous improvement. It was crafted soon after the Second World War to help Japan\u2019s industrial base improve its production efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>Kaizen is based on a premise that if you continuously improve a process the end result will compound in an exponential manner. Essentially, continuous improvement helps you kill two birds with one stone.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, if you continuously improve your clients\u2019 ad campaigns by 1% daily, the returns will grow exponentially by 3,778% by the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, if you continuously patch up small risks on a daily basis, by the end of the year, you\u2019ll have averted a major tragedy on your clients\u2019 ad campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>You need an intelligent tool that conducts data analysis and provides you with a consistent stream of actionable insights.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>To improve your ad campaigns on a continuous pattern for exponential growth in ROIs.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, procrastination is a thief of time. You\u2019re unlikely to catch up with your competitions and achieve your target objectives if you have a <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/ppc-optimization-techniques\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">habit of postponing Kaizen activities<\/a> on your ad campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>Sooner or later, you\u2019ll be confronted by a disaster, which may be in losses or missed ROIs if you let small problems mount continuously.\u00a0 It\u2019s very possible to stay ahead of your rivals if you have a tool that provides you with timely risks and opportunities signals. You\u2019ll be able to avert a disaster if you act promptly on the timely risk signals.<\/p>\n<p>Take action now and save that \u20189\u2019 later by letting a <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/PPC-Signal\/best-ppc-optimization-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>smart and intelligent<\/strong><\/a> complement your skills and experience in PPC management.<\/p>\n<h3>\u201cThe Early Bird Catches the Worm\u201d<\/h3>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4345\" style=\"max-width: 80%;\" src=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/google-ads-time-of-day-6.jpg\" alt=\"Google Ads Time of Day\"><\/div>\n<p>The proverb above means that the person who takes the earliest opportunity to do something will gain an advantage over others.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, the one who arrives first has the best chance for success.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s world is marred with intense competition in every respect of human life. Pay-per-click marketing is not an exception. Sometimes the thin line between winners and losers is differentiated by timely access to opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Like we said earlier, changes in factors that significantly influence the performance of your client\u2019s ad campaigns are inevitable. These changes may present an opportunity for you to exploit or risk to avert.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, opportunities are always short-lived. You need an automated PPC tool to provide you with opportunity signals to stay ahead of your competition.<\/p>\n<p>Timely access to <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/optimizing-google-ads\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">opportunity signals<\/a> can result in soaring returns (ROIs) or a significant reduction in cost per action (CPA). Imagine you\u2019re running over 10 ad campaigns on behalf of your clients. You happen to be using an intelligent tool that conducts an intensive and fast analysis on your data.<\/p>\n<p>Assume you\u2019ve received a signal that certain keyword groups are driving mouthwatering traffic to your clients\u2019 ads.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s Your Next Move?<\/p>\n<p>This is an opportunity for you to reallocate your ad spend to <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/effective-keyword-research-techniques\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">high-performing keyword groups for maximum ROI<\/a>. Assume you\u2019ve gone past the procrastination syndrome and now you add 1% improvement on your clients\u2019 ad campaigns on a daily basis.<\/p>\n<p>Can you imagine your ROI at the end of the year?<\/p>\n<p>Remember, 1% continuous improvement daily can balloon your ROI by over 3,778% by the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Higher ROI can result in your PPC agency attracting more clients even from your competition. Essentially, a tool that provides timely signals keeps you a few steps ahead of the competition, which is embodied by the age-old proverb &#8211; \u201cthe early bird catches the worm\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting the difference between insights and actionable insights with respect to this discussion. Actionable insights are deep meanings of data that drive a future action while insights are just in-depth meanings.<\/p>\n<p>For you to implement the 1% continuous improvement or Kaizen, you need actionable insights.<\/p>\n<p>For an insight to be classified as \u2018actionable\u2019 it has to be relevant and most importantly, timely. A<a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/PPC-Signal\/best-ppc-optimization-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> smart signal tool<\/a> can strategically position you to access opportunities that will set you apart from the competition.<\/p>\n<h3>\u201cTo be Warned is to be Forearmed\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s a no-brainer that to be warned is to be armed in advance. Essentially, if you have timely access to warnings about forthcoming risks, you easily devise mitigation strategies.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, if you receive an early warning about an upcoming tornado or hurricane, you can evacuate your family and valuables ahead of the disaster.<\/p>\n<p>Like we said earlier, PPC marketing is marred with changes beyond our control.\u00a0 Changes in pay-per-click (PPC) can be classified into three, namely:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shifts: Shifts are changes that deviate from either side of a determined average. They occur when a series of consecutive data points fall above or below the norm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Imagine your average cost per click in your client\u2019s niche is usually $4.\u00a0 Assume on Monday it rises to $6 before falling to $3.50. The fluctuation from the average is a shift.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trends: Trends are the gradual long-term movement of a metric either upwards or downwards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For instance, you can conclude that a CPC is on a downfall trend if the metric has been going down in a gradual fashion.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Outliers: Outliers are isolated occurrences that cannot be attributed to a pattern. In other words, they are single data points that fall way above or below the standard deviation line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Outliers are misleading and should not be relied upon to make critical optimization decisions. However, it does not mean you should disregard them entirely.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the factors that can influence positive and negative changes in your clients\u2019 ad campaigns are:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Shifts in users\u2019 tastes and preferences<\/li>\n<li>Competitors\u2019 landscape and strategies<\/li>\n<li>Adjustments made in your ad accounts<\/li>\n<li>Pay-per-click (PPC) marketing platform updates<\/li>\n<li>Seasonality<\/li>\n<li>Other factors<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4345\" style=\"max-width: 80%;\" src=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/google-ads-time-of-day-7.jpg\" alt=\"Google Ads Time of Day\"><\/div>\n<p>Changes, such as seasonality can result in your cost per click (CPC) and cost per acquisition (CPA) spiraling out of control.<\/p>\n<p>Surprise birthday parties are fun, surprise in a PPC campaign is not.<\/p>\n<p>Remember nobody likes surprises. Surprises are incredibly costly because they can easily result in negative returns, losses, and loss of customers in the long term.<\/p>\n<p>Paid search marketing is often likened to rocket science because of the lack of a one-size-fits-all approach. Imagine adding surprises into what seems to be an already complicated equation.<\/p>\n<p>You need a smart warning system that provides you with a reliable stream of risk signals to optimize your clients\u2019 ad campaign in a timely manner.<\/p>\n<p>Averting risks in the early stages is one of the smart strategies of saving time.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, you won\u2019t have to commit your time in the future to deal with massive problems that have been piling up due to procrastination.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, procrastination is a thief of time.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s an<a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/PPC-Signal\/best-ppc-optimization-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> interesting tool <\/a>that sifts your Google Ads campaign data and packages actionable insights as either opportunity or risk. This tool is noteworthy because it saves the time you take trying to classify an actionable insight as to either an opportunity or risk.<\/p>\n<p>Conduct \u2018health check-up\u2019 on your pay-per-click (PPC) campaigns FREE of charge.<\/p>\n<h3>Fire Brigade vs. Smoke Detector<\/h3>\n<p>What would you prefer?<\/p>\n<p>Fight fire or prevent it?<\/p>\n<p>Well, as a rational human your first instinct is to avert risks. Multiple surveys show that a majority of people prioritize protecting what they have more than gaining something new.<\/p>\n<p>Essentially, as a PPC manager, your first instinct is to protect your client\u2019s ad budget. It makes sense to have a smoke detector in your PPC ad agency rather than wait for the full-scale fire to call the fire brigade.<\/p>\n<h3>Proactive Vs. Reactive<\/h3>\n<p>A smoke detector is an analogy for an <a href=\"https:\/\/ppcexpo.com\/PPC-Signal\/best-ppc-optimization-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">intelligent PPC management tool<\/a> that provides you with timely and relevant risk alerts. Taking additional measures to prevent a problem from occurring is called being proactive. Conversely, waiting for a money-draining problem to take place to address it, is referred to as being reactive.<\/p>\n<p>Think of the time, money, and other resources you can potentially save by being proactive.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center; padding-top: 2px; padding-bottom: 2px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4345 tip\" style=\"max-width: 80%;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ppcexpo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/google-ads-time-of-day-tip-2.jpg\" alt=\"Tips\"><\/div>\n<p>Like we said earlier, being proactive in PPC advertising is a must-have rather than a nice-to-have due to sudden changes in factors that directly influence your Google Ad campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>Adopting proactive measures, such as using a PPC signal tool to keep you updated with risks and opportunities insights, can indeed be a smart way to outperform the competition.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the direct benefits of being proactive include the following:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>It reduces stress and tension that can result in catastrophic mistakes<\/li>\n<li>It saves your time, which is a very scarce resource in today\u2019s paid search marketing (SEM) landscape.<\/li>\n<li>It avails opportunities to you in a timely fashion.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Remember, accessing opportunities ahead of others can be the differentiator between a winner and a loser in today\u2019s competitive landscape.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>Most importantly, it saves you tons of money.
