Event Driven Paid Search Campaigns
|
Most paid search campaigns are designed to run for an indefinite period of time. Event driven campaigns, on the other hand, are short-term and tied to particular occasions or occurrences, whether planned or reactionary. This might involve a weekend special on golf clubs, a multi-channel product launch around the NBA playoffs, the promotion of a political campaign, or even a major news story.
Such campaigns might run for a few weeks or just a few hours. Join us to learn how to create and optimize these high-impact, transitory campaigns. Hear a discussion of the various forms event-driven paid search campaigns can take, and how to use them to greatly improve your paid search ROI.
Includes search engine marketing 101...best practices and how to avoid search engine malpractice. Citing real life examples, Brian gives easy to implement takeaways such as how to optimize campaigns, the importance of keyword selection, and how to determine the best techniques and tools to meet your specific needs. |
