Same question here. I think if you launch a Search campaign and link your business profile, you automatically appear for some searches on Google Maps 🤔
Hey i think there is a correction, smart ad -Call ads focused on all paramater like engagements, get direction as well as. So these conversion also comes from search, search partner sites, display ads, map is just like 30%
Yes, Good point, @clicktrackmarketing can you elaborate on this. I've always been looking for a way to only show ads 100% of the time in the Google Maps or Google Business Profile placement. I know you can use the location extension and set your bid % increase higher to increase the likelyhood but it still often shows in search placements. Also if there is a way to remove the "engagements" & "get directions" conversion actions ?
@@clicktrackmarketing I don't have the option for smart campaign or directly advertise GMB via advertise option. Could you help me with this?? Is only option is PMAX
Thanks, just what I was looking for! I started this campaign 2 days ago and I added 6-7 keywords, but in the Search Terms report there are lots of non relevant keywords where my ads showed up and people click on it :( Is it normal now? I added those keywords to the negativ keyw list
When we add keyword should they be present in title and description we add 15-20 keywords how is it possible to have them present in gmb title and description
It's tough for no physical location but use NEAR ME keywords and still link to the profile. Add the conversion goal of GET DIRECTIONS, CALLS, and FORMS. What type of business?
Does anyone know why Smart Maps Business ads, which were running normally, suddenly stopped spending the budget, only showing impressions without receiving any clicks? I've checked all the basic errors in the content and ad account, and there are no violations.
You can use the PMax campaign but you’ll need to add a ton of URLs to exclude and watch the search terms closely to add negatives. Select Directions (Get more visitors) as the goal and make sure you link the profile.
If my Google business profile has no address but instead I service an area such as my city, will this still be placed on maps? It seems like I can't add it as an asset location because the profile has no location.
You can add actual locations to target once you connect your profile. It’s fairly hidden though. You can always schedule a paid call and we can help you build it.
You can add some keywords but the goal is to show up more often on the maps results. Like “restaurant near me” for the keyword and maybe Best Restaurant San Diego as the headline of the ad.
Tried this for our medical clinic and got disapproved. They responded with “Speculative and experimental medical treatment”. Not sure if it’s the headlines or descriptions. Any fix for this?
Medical field is tricky and if you get disapproved, you can appeal but might need to create a new account with new card on file and different email associated with the new account. What type of medical business? You can also check the policies page.
I can't find anymore the "Smart Campaign". Is this content already too old? How can we reach the same objective without the Smart Option in the campaing setting?
You have to use PMax campaign now and put the goal as GET MORE PHYSICAL VISITORS or GET MORE CALLS If you have an older Google Assistant account, you can still use the Smart campaign. Make sure the keywords are something people will search for in the maps. “Restaurant near me” “realtor near me” and so on.
There’s a list 7500 websites to exclude since Google moved everything to PMAX. Make sure to add tons of negatives and email me for the list of negatives.
You mention a super low daily ad budget but you don’t cover anything about the keywords and there CPC. You just randomly put in whatever words it’s going to eat up your low daily budget
I don't see smart campaigns in my client's account. Could it be because my client's ad account isn't verified yet? Or is it because my client is from Ukraine?
Smart Campaign is not longer an option in google ads. Any suggestions?

@@AngelLopez-no7ze hi, did you end up figuring this out?
@@georgestithos3663 No I did not. @clicktrackmarketing did not respond to me yet. Do you know the answer to this?
Thank you for taking the time to show this simply and efficiently.
Thank you excellent video nobody knows how do map adds. Just got mine set up
you used performance max?
Great video. Could you send the link for that youtube checklist you mentioned?
Sounds good. What is the ballpark cost per click for restaurants in a 100k population metro?
It depends on the keywords and competition it the maps clicks are far cheaper. Set it up or reach out for help.
Hi, very fun, and easy to follow..10/10, just wondering how long it takes before an ad show on google maps. Big TNX : )
Usually 1-2 days depending on budget, keywords, ads, and vertical.
Hi, I do not have the option to create a smart campaign, which is the video where I can find that information. Thanks heaps!
Google forces us to move to PMAX which causes another problem now. You can exclude 7,000 wasteful domains, but you’ll need to email me for the list.
@@clicktrackmarketing Hi can i get that list thank you

Keep adding negatives and I have a list of 7500 websites to avoid with PMAX. Shoot me an email or DM and I’ll share it.
@@clicktrackmarketing Thanks! I write you.
Can you add a phone number to this campaign that then replaces the GBP phone number when the ad shows? And not the default GBP number?

how to setup for a service based business with no physical location but serving multiple zip codes?

@@DavidEsau Home cleaning business. We just need leads/calls
hi thankyou helpful for your video

They removed Smart campaign option from accounts. Any other way around to do this?

Aren't phone numbers in headlines not allowed?

Should the keywords which we added be present in headlines ?

I cant find "smart campaign", can you help me?

@@XicoFlores777 THANK YOU!
@@clicktrackmarketing i figured it was under pmax, i am sure we need to disable a lot of garbage that comes with pmax
You open your gmb and click on advertise and I can create a campaign just like the above
Does it also shows on Google search not only on maps
As long as you link Google Ads campaign to your business profile it will show up more on the maps based on the hundreds of accounts we’ve helped.
Can you do one search campaign and one local campiagn on the same account?
Yes. Of course. 🎉 Just know that each campaign has a separate budget.
@@DavidREsau thanks for your answer. But, can you have both campaigns on the shared budget item?
If you set up a shared budget then yes.
Did this, and I got charged for multiple clicks from 3rd party sites. Then I was told u can't edit that in smart campaign??

i cant see smart campaigns

What kind of business do you own? If a restaurant, use stuff like “best restaurants near me” “sushi” “Mexican food” etc.
