What should you do when your search campaigns are maxed out? In episode 128 of the Inside Google Ads podcast, host Jyll Saskin Gales shares a story about a Google Ads coaching client who runs an agency, and achieved incredible results for a local service business... until he hit a wall when trying to scale the budget. She discovers that his client has a non-brand search impression share of 91% (!), and discusses what this means, and what to do next.
If you feel stuck with a budget that will not spend, or CPCs that keep rising, this episode provides a clear path forward for your Google Ads growth.
