The wasted ad spend ratio, which is the inverse of the conversion rate, should be monitored and reduced.Quote of the show:Making sure your budget is utilized the right way is really important. Many accounts spend money on just one ad type or match type, or focus heavily on a single product. It's important to diversify and maximize traffic to all products. Additionally, allocating the budget effectively according to your strategy is essential to minimize wasted ad spend.Links:Personal - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/patientfirstpt/Personal - Twitter: https://twitter.com/PPCEntouragePPC Entourage - Website: https://ppcentourage.com/Carbon6 - Website: http://carbon6.io/Ways to tune in:Apple PodcastiHeart RadioSpotifyGoogle PodcastStitcherYouTubeSponsors:GETIDA delivers the maximum reimbursements with the maximum impact to recover lost revenue for tens of thousands of FBA sellers worldwide.With billions of FBA transactions audited daily, GETIDA is the global leader in Amazon FBA auditing and reimbursement solutions.You can sign up in minutes using your special promo code LEGENDS400 and get your first $400 in reimbursements completely free.Sign up now!
