Here, we’ll take a look at helpful information that if I knew from the start, I’d be way ahead of my competition.
When was just getting started, I did not really have a clear understanding of its depth and breadth?
This is why I came up with this article for those new to PPC that way they won’t go through what I had to experience when just starting off.
1. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes
Being able to learn from your mistakes plays a very key role in our success. I know mistakes can be expensive and derailing in PPC.
Being able to monitor your performance in real-time and being able to act quickly can help identify and prevent paid media catastrophes before they take place.
Let’s take a look at areas to major your focus on to avoid mistakes that may turn out costly:
- Avoid incorrect budget and bid settings that might cause the account to overspend.
- Avoid disorganized account structure that goes against intended strategic direction.

Moreover, you can also learn from other people’s mistakes. This is why you should interact with other peers in the industry and read much about their journey.
