Google Ads Recommendation Warning

This is why you should NOT blindly follow the recommendations that you see in your Google Ads Dashboard.
And also be careful about the recommendations you get from a Google rep.
Warning the results you are going to see in this video can be very alarming & costly for small business owners.
Now I don’t want this video to be a beat up on Google video, as I do really like the platform as it has allowed me to grow my own businesses and businesses of my clients.
BUT my 2 biggest frustrations with Google is their customer service or should I say non-existent customer service & their recommendations tab.

Omg! This just basically happened to me after speaking to a Google account manager. I wanted to stop spending but he managed to convince me into spending again and increasing the budget yet I got poor results.

[@AaronYoungGoogleAds]

Sorry to hear that hopefully you can recover your campaigns

[@kieranjameswatkins25]

Thanks for sharing this Aaron, important for us all to know. So easy to just accept recommendations and not know what’s going on while your spend goes up.
You’re a legend🙏❤️

[@AaronYoungGoogleAds]

My pleasure!

[@MasterBrain182]

This is pure gold 🔥 Thank you to share your knowledge with us Aaron.

[@AaronYoungGoogleAds]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@LaurentWiart]

Thanks Aaron, very true!
BTW, at the end of the video you mention 2 videos, but there is no "YT popup" showing the thumbnails to click and watch them

[@AaronYoungGoogleAds]

Thanks Launrent. For the videos the do show up but about 5 seconds after I mention them

[@ingemark1media542]

FULLY agree

[@mike.stankiewicz]

Hi Aaron - I could not see your additional videos - the left and the right one. They were not on the screen. Kindly add them to the video

Hey Mike, For the videos the do show up but about 5 seconds after I mention them

[@BihanChen]

The bigger question is what choice do we have other than Google ads? Social media ads?

[@johanswart9556]

Google rep, asked me to apply some of the auto-apply settings, totally tanked the campaign

[@AaronYoungGoogleAds]

Unfortunately it’s an all too common story

[@johanswart9556]

@@AaronYoungGoogleAds How do you fix it once it has happened?

[@mikeatkinson6565]

I know another company that doesn't give you any customer service... Meta!

[@opossumgrylls3275]

Meta is even worse.

[@BeeKayParadeEquipment]

Thank You so much !! we capture by google and every months they coming with more and more tricks to take our money .

[@gunlock177]

I mostly dismiss them as they are bloody ridiculous, if I followed their recommendations I’d be losing thousands a week

[@igumbinet]

Hey Aaron, can you cover the push via repeated emails of Google to enable "enhanced conversions". Not sure if this is just a move to suck even more data in that just benefits Google. When I see them pushing hard in multiple email notification I get that feeling that this is just the goal here.

[@user-gt6yx1zw2o]

Thank you for the insights, Aaron. Is there any way to get the peak time data for the last 30 days from Google ads or analytics during which customers communicate with our ads or send a message on WhatsApp or call?
We want to arrange our ad schedule based on that data instead of running ads from 8 am to 11 pm every day in Dubai and the car rental market is competitively brutal due to price as the main factor.

[@OrsonCorrell]

Good

[@TheSpud5000]

Hi Aaron. What would you recommend to do if i have been turning these on by recommendations from the Google marketing calls. Should i start again with new campaigns or try recover current campaigns? Thanks in advance

[@Standard-Manufacturing-Company]

Thanks for this great information

[@Abhilash.goud.edulakanti]

me to I will only some of them Which only I require

[@CibusMission]

Question: is there a simple way to reverse to when the ads were doing well? Like I have 1 month that was great and I would like it back the way it was for that month. Any ideas?

[@rijwankhan8571]

Hi, I want to run a Google ads campaign, so could you help me on that?

[@opossumgrylls3275]

I don't answer when the Google ads rep calls. It has ALWAYS been a complete waste of my time and I can barely understand them anyways.

[@nawazhmd]

Hi, so on a maximise conversion campaign i should untick “bid more efficiently with maximise conversions”? This will then increase the conversions and reduce the cost?

[@nawazhmd]

Even if you have a target CPA?

[@nVizGG]

@@nawazhmd Depends;
1. If u have30 sale last 30 days set a TCPA or TROAS
2. if u dont - untick and let it run on Max.conv og Max. convalue
Max.conv: u are selling "1 product"/style
Max.convalue: Selling alot of different products
