PPC training Lancashire
Do you use Google Adwords to generate new leads, sales or awareness of your services? Suppose you use an agency or someone else to manage and optimise your account. How many reports have you been sent that you need help understanding?
All the charts, graphs and abbreviations such as CTR, CPC, and CPA, and other terminology such as bounce rates, cost/conversion, impressions etc. It can all become confusing to the best of us! (Take a look at our PPC Jargon buster for more help).
There are generic PPC training courses that you can go on or information you can search for around the web. They will help you understand what these mean. Although this information will help, but, what they can’t do, is help you understand your results and data references.
Choosing a bespoke PPC training session for your Adwords campaigns focuses on the data generated from your campaign. There is little point in learning all the best ways to optimise your PPC campaigns on YouTube. As you don’t use video marketing or how to generate more sales using Google shopping if you are a plumber!
What Google Adwords PPC training can help you with
There are multiple areas Google Adwords can help with, crossing over into Social Media and SEO, as well as where your money is being spent.

- New keywords and topics – We can show you how to identify the actual searches people make to generate your advert on Google.

Google Adwords can generate lots of search data in a short amount of time. There is no reason why this data can’t be used across different platforms!

Trying PPC without learning
We speak to many people who are dead against using Google Ads. “It costs too much”, “It doesn’t work”, “competitors click on your Ad and waste all your money”, and many other stories.
To address the first two scenarios, yes, it can cost too much, and the results will be rubbish if you don’t know what you’re doing. Although, Google will offer suggestions on how to get the most clicks on your ad. However, these clicks are not necessarily the best for you. However, we concentrate on getting clicks most likely to convert clicks into customers, generating sales and leads. We don’t aim to target people researching your products or services (this is what SEO would be doing) but target people ready to buy or commit to your services. We aim to target these clicks and show you how to do that through PPC training.
Addressing the “competitors click on your ad and waste your budget” isn’t true. Google has spent a lot of money and time developing systems to counter click fraud and does a good job! Our team has experience working with huge European campaigns, with over a million pounds of ad spend per week. The number of fraudulent clicks discovered in this was minimal.
