2# In-Market Clients

These are potential customers for your brand and they aren’t limited to the people who visited your website in past but they are available across tens of verticals like finance, automotive and retail. List for these audiences can be obtained from these verticals.

Start with using the list with as bid only and move to making their ad groups only when the list proves to be useful. Also there is no need of using tracking codes or waiting for the list to reach 1000 cookies to use it. You can straightaway layer the list with your ad groups.

Both Google and Bing have features to highlight the conflict. But the problem is that the conflict often goes unnoticed. And there are many reasons for marketers missing the conflict. You can use software or scripts that examine and highlight the keyword conflict.

This feature is available in AdWords and it is quite useful in performing repetitive tasks like bid management. With scripts, you can automate the task and save your valuable time for doing more fruitful work.

If yes then you need rethinking on the procedure as it can limit reach of your ads and affect the CTA in the long run.When you include a negative keyword in your campaign, you tell Google to stop displaying your ad on the pages that contain that specific keyword. When targeting customers, you show your ads to groups instead of what websites they are visiting. You should be selective in using the negative keywords.
