Adwords Management – Unique Selling Point

It’s time to get directly to the point in your message. Although you may think you have narrowed it down to a rather tight message, have you actually informed your customers as to why they need to buy from you?

After all, this could be the most important part in your AdWords management. Because this is the ingredient in marketing that trumps all others. With this ingredient, everything in marketing gets easy. Without it, people wander around in an aimless stupor for years.

So just what is this magic ingredient? It’s simply being able to provide a good answer to the following question:

Why should I do business with you, rather than someone else, or why should I do business at all?

Another way of asking the same question is:

What do you guarantee?

When you can truly answer these two questions, your ads will practically write themselves. When you can truly answer these questions, people will be lining up to buy from you.

When your business possesses a simple, unmistakable mission, it stands out in an age of obfuscated marketing messages and Byzantine corporatespeak. Your answer to this question is your unique selling proposition (USP). A statement of value that’s so clear and focused it’s almost impossible to misunderstand it.

Less is more. Your business will grow, the world will sit up and take notice, and even your Google ads will write themselves, when you stand out from the crowd with a clear, simple, and utterly unique message.

WHAT IS A USP?

Your USP is thr one thing special about you that your customer can’t find anywhere else. It’s your Unique Selling Proposition. It’s what you bring to the table that no other business does, or even can.

Your USP is about the uniqueness of your product. It’s even more than that. It is the whole reason for why your product is necessary in the first place. It is why your accompanying services are necessary, and why it’s necessary to get the product now rather than later.

Many of the difficulties people have with Google come from a USP that isn’t clear and unique. If you have your USP right up front, everything from the keywords and ads to the price of your product, everything will fall into place, making you and your customers satisfied.

Tips for Success with PPC Advertising

Here is a word of caution to anyone who is venturing into PPC advertising for the first time. Slow down! There is a pretty substantial learning curve with PPC advertising. Taking the time to learn some information about how Google AdWords and PPC advertising works can and will save the newbie advertiser a great deal of time, money and aggravation.

Before starting with a PPC campaign, it is wise to gain some knowledge and insight into how Google AdWords work. The initial lessons you get can save you a great deal of time and/or money. Google has some wonderful training right on their site. Also a great resource I found that is recommended by several of the top earners I work with is Perry Marshall’s, “The Definitive Guide to Google AdWords.” It is well worth the investment plus you get other invaluable tips to Google.

I am a very hands on learner so I went in full force to design my own PPC campaign with very little research. After spending hundreds of dollars with no substantial return, I decided to take a break and start from ground zero. I knew that PPC could drive a great deal of traffic to my landing page if done correctly. All I was doing was dumping money into Google.

Remember with Google AdWords, many times less is more. Lets talk about who you are targeting. If you target your ads to a very small niche audience, you will use a very narrow group of keywords that are specific to what your target audience is looking for. You will have a lower impression rate for your ad, but your audience will be clicking on your ad. Your click through rate will increase.

Why is that? Well, you are providing your niche target with ads that are directly aligned with what they are looking for. They are looking for something specific and you are delivering it right to them with your targeted keywords and ads. Talk about a win ” win situation.

Always run two ads simultaneously. You will have your control ad and your test ad. Once you hit about 50-60 clicks, you will know which ad is working and which ad needs to be dumped. Obviously, you will want to make the higher performing ad your control and revamp or completely dump the other to create a new competing ad.

The lower performing ad has one of two fates. You will either toss is completely (if it does absolutely nothing for you) or you will make some minor change to try and improve it. Keep in mind that in PPC, sometimes less is more. By changing one word, it could become your highest producing ad.

This is a great way to ensure that you are always working towards increasing your lead generation by raising the bar of expectation for your ads. This is a great example of a way to apply attraction marketing principles to your marketing and attracting the quality leads you are looking for.
