Review
Advanced Google AdWords is the definitive playbook for PPC professionals who want to move beyond basic optimisation and master the strategic nuances of paid search. As someone managing six-figure monthly ad spend, I’ve found Geddes’ data-driven frameworks indispensable for maximising ROI in increasingly competitive auctions.
The book’s “Profit-Based Bidding” methodology transformed our approach, we shifted from rigid ROAS targets to dynamic bid adjustments based on product margins, boosting overall profitability by 22%. Geddes’ “ad diagnostic” framework also helped us identify hidden weaknesses in underperforming campaigns, while his advanced scripting techniques automated 15+ hours of weekly optimisations.
