Our Amarillo, TX PPC Management Strategies

PPC Ads Management consists of creating and optimizing paid advertisement plans in Amarillo. However, that is an incredibly simple explanation, so let's dig a little deeper.

A paid ads agency for Amarillo often begins by getting to know your company and its business model before providing professional PPC management. This information helps determine the next steps, since the way you'd approach paid ads for a local Amarillo company is much different from how you'd handle it for an ecommerce brand.

For example, local Amarillo service providers are often only interested in qualified leads. This can be accomplished through paid advertising that drives traffic to an optimized landing page or sales funnel. If those digital assets don't yet exist, or need substantial improvement, then you could start with Google Local Service Ads or Facebook Lead Forms.

Alternatively, ecommerce brands are most often interested in online sales. Using paid advertising, you can get traffic to a page optimized for products or categories. You might even want to include Google Shopping Campaigns in some cases. We've even utilized sales funnels to help sell products, subscriptions, and services.

Understanding the metrics that will be used to optimize and scale Amarillo PPC is the next step. For paid ads to be effective, most Amarillo paid ad companies will implement email collection plans, such as squeeze pages or lead magnets. To better understand ad attribution and reporting, it makes sense to integrate with Wicked Reports, Triple Whale, or Northbeam. For that to make sense though, your ad spend should be over $1,000/month.

Your Amarillo business should use a variety of advertising tactics and marketing tools to be successful with paid ads. For example, the best Amarillo paid advertising plans will include plans to:

  • Drive traffic to your digital assets (websites, sales funnels, etc) from search engines, social channels, and third-party websites.
  • Increase revenue for your Amarillo small business through qualified leads or online sales.
  • Better understand ad attribution through the integration of third-party attribution software.
  • Showcase social proof through case studies, white papers, video testimonials, and other factors.
  • Engage users in story creation, email collection, and user generated content.
  • Test the effectiveness of different ad creatives across different media and ad placements.

How Paid Advertising Helps Amarillo, TX Businesses

One of the most obvious benefits of Amarillo paid advertising is the quick increase in traffic it provides.

The quality of your ads, landing pages, and business model will determine whether or not that traffic increase results in higher conversions.

If you are interested in running paid advertising in Amarillo, we recommend that you start slowly.

Before diving into PPC advertising or scaling your ad campaigns, make sure you have realistic goals, a working sales funnel, and the ability to gather actionable data.

If you run into trouble getting the conversions you were expecting, don't blame Facebook or Google. The issue is often in the ad creatives, campaign settings, or sales process.

When everything comes together, paid advertising can be an invaluable addition to the digital marketing strategy of your Amarillo company. Just keep in mind increased traffic doesn't always result in more conversions!

Quick Wins for Your Campaigns

How We Manage Amarillo, TX Paid Ads

Our team of paid advertising specialists is knowledgeable about the latest PPC trends in Amarillo. Drive traffic and conversions to your Amarillo digital assets with our experience across dozens of industries.

Keyword Research

In the context of paid advertising, you'll find keyword research mostly relates to search network campaigns on the Google Ads and Bing Ads platforms. After all, search ads only show up based on what is searched on Google or Bing.

For example, a person searching for a roofing company in Amarillo might search "Amarillo Roofer" on a search engine. As a paid advertising manager for that Amarillo roofing company, targeting that exact phrase wouldn't require in-depth keyword research.

However, what if that exact match keyword wasn't producing enough search volume and the Amarillo roofing company needed to increase their advertising reach? To solve the problem, keyword research would be required.

After discussing options, the next step might involve the paid ads manager talking with the Amarillo roofing company what services they want to target more often and where. It might also require some broadening of the keyword targeting.

As an example, the Texas PPC manager might find that "Canyon, TX roofing companies" and "Amarillo roof repair" have high search volumes. The first phrase targets a location nearby Amarillo that might still be within the company's service area. If the repair work is extensive, the second phrase might result in a more lucrative roof replacement project.

Negative keyword lists can also benefit from keyword research. These are used to stop your PPC advertising from showing in search queries that you know won't produce conversions.

For example, someone searching for "free roof repair companies" or "how to advertise to roofing contractors" isn't likely to purchase a roof replacement service. However, they might see your paid ads if you are using broad keyword targeting without any negative keywords like "free" or "advertise".

As you can see, no matter how obvious your keyword research needs might be at the start of building out your campaign, they become more complicated as you begin to scale your ads and reduce wasted ad spend.

Audience Research

Audience research is often mentioned as part of scaling social media ads on Facebook and Instagram in Amarillo paid advertising campaigns. However, Bing Ads and Google Ads also allow audience targeting.

Let's go over a little history on audience research and targeting within the Facebook Ads platform.

Facebook custom audiences were heavily relied upon by Amarillo's PPC advertising managers in the past. In fact, one of Facebook Ads' most appealing features was the ability to collect data on users, which advertisers in Amarillo eagerly took advantage of.

The rise of data privacy and machine learning had a significant impact on custom audiences over time.

Apple's iOS 14.5 update included a pop-up message that lets users opt out of personalized ad tracking. This had a negative impact on Facebook's ability to track user behavior on mobile devices in Amarillo and beyond. In fact, it even affected the accuracy of ad attribution reporting.

Then came improvements to their machine learning algorithms, which greatly diminished the need for custom audiences and lookalike audiences for most Amarillo ad agencies. Their algorithm has become so good at understanding your ideal audience that you typically do more harm than good by choosing your own interest-based targeting.

While there will still be plenty of Amarillo PPC advertising firms relying on custom audiences, the trend is moving toward broad targeting. Don't take our work for it though. If you've been involved in the creation of Facebook ads, you've probably noticed the removal of interest-based targeting options here and there. Maybe you've even seen changes to how "Advantage Detailed Targeting" is recommended during the setup process.

Interested in another take on audience targeting? Social Media Examiner's blog article does a good job of explaining recent modifications.

This isn't to say audience research and targeting is going away. Amarillo ad campaigns will likely always have targeting options that can be manipulated for extra performance.

Landing Page Creation & Optimization

An important factor in the success of your Amarillo paid advertising campaign is the landing page.

Our first step when managing a paid advertising campaign in Amarillo involves reviewing the landing pages for best practices. Here are some of the factors we look for in this review:

  • Is there a benefit-focused headline?
  • Are there any images above the fold?
  • Is the content written in a compelling manner?
  • Am I able to find a lead form right away?
  • Can you easily identify the call to action?
  • How quickly does the page load?
  • Is there social proof?
  • Can I load the page on a mobile device?

Quality landing pages are the result of many factors.

Make sure your landing page follows best practices before you spend money on Amarillo PPC advertising!

You should never consider your landing page complete. Try running A/B testing every few months to continue refining your Amarillo sales pitch.

Revenue Funnel Development

As an alternative to a landing page, you might want to consider building out one or more sales funnels. We rely heavily on sales funnels for lead generation, email audience building, and even online purchases.

For example, we have a client that promotes an online fitness challenge that you could even join from Amarillo. In the course of managing their digital marketing, we built several sales funnels using Click Funnels. Here are a few of the funnels we used:

  • We used squeeze pages to help capture email addresses while building awareness for the program.
  • For leads, we provided healthy eating tips, fitness tips, webinars, and sneak peeks as lead magnets.
  • We used application funnels to push people toward the idea of wanting to apply to participate in exclusive programs.
  • We used sales letter funnels to serve as the registration system for the online program.

There are many different types of funnels, so your Amarillo business isn't limited to only these options. Just keep in mind these can be incredibly helpful for gauging interest in a product or service, building out an email subscriber base, and selling a product or service online.

If you do decide to implement a funnel, take your time at it. Doing this type of work yourself can take weeks of training, whether you learn it at home by yourself or at a technical school in Amarillo. It can take years of experience to master funnels, however. You can save yourself some time by looking for a PPC management agency, like WebCitz, to handle the heavy lifting!

Conversion Optimization

Having a clear understanding of your conversion rate is critical to making informed advertising decisions. The average conversion rate is between 1-3%, but that varies greatly between industries, products, and services throughout Amarillo.

Let's run through a basic scenario to help illustrate the impact of conversion rates.

  1. You sell a $100 sweatshirt in Amarillo on your website.
  2. You have a 1% conversion rate, meaning for every 100 Amarillo residents that visit your website you sell 1 sweatshirt.
  3. You have a $0.50 average cost per click (CPC), meaning for each person in Amarillo that visits your website you spend 50 cents.
  4. To sell 1 sweatshirt, you need 100 clicks from paid ads, which would cost you $50. This is known as your cost per acquisition (CPA).
  5. Your return on ad spend (ROAS) would be 2x, meaning for every dollar spent in paid advertising you get two dollars in return.

For most Amarillo small businesses, this return on ad spend wouldn't be acceptable unless the margins were great.

To improve the situation, you hire a paid advertising agency to modify your campaign settings, ad creatives, and landing page experience.

Let's assume those improvements bring your conversion rate up from 1% to 2%. That means for every 100 visits to your website you now sell 2 sweatshirts. This is twice the return on ad spend! You might be profitable now selling those sweatshirts.

Understanding your conversion rate, and knowing how to improve it, can be crucial to the management of your Amarillo paid advertising.

Ad Creation

This is potentially one of the most important aspects of a Facebook Ads account.

When you run Facebook Ads or Instagram Ads in Amarillo, you are mostly targeting a cold audience that is more interested in quickly scrolling by advertisements in favor of seeing what their friends and family are up to online.

You should develop an understanding of how to capture someone's attention in a split second.

To do this, you need to build out great ad creatives that make someone stop for a second and say to themselves, "wait a second, what...?"

This doesn't happen by running the same ad creative over and over and over again. Even if it is a good ad, it will eventually become stale. You should change things up frequently, even if you are just targeting people in Amarillo.

If you don't change out your ad creatives and test new ideas, you'll suffer from what is called "ad fatigue." This is the state in which your target audience (in Amarillo and beyond) has already seen your ad so many times that they instinctively scroll by it without ever interacting with your brand.

Don't be caught in this situation. You should understand when to pause an ad because it isn't performing as well as it once did. You should understand when to test new ideas, especially if you are emotionally attached to an ad that you spent a lot of time making.

This is one of the benefits of working with a paid ads management agency that helps Amarillo small businesses, since we are proponents of testing new ad creatives regularly.

Ad Attribution Consulting

Knowing your ad attribution is important. If you don't know what ad attribution is, it is the process of determining which advertisement resulted in the conversion you experienced on your Amarillo site or funnel.

You might be suffering from ad attribution glitches and not even know it.

Do you rely on Facebook Ads or Google Ads to tell you which campaigns, ad sets, and ads are performing the best?

If so, you are relying on incomplete data to form critical decisions about when to turn off or scale an ad.

For Amarillo ecommerce businesses running on Shopify, we recommend you look at ad attribution companies like Triple Whale or Northbeam to get a much clearer picture of your ad attribution.

For Amarillo content-based websites, or ecommerce websites in platforms other than Shopify, check out ad attribution companies like Wicked Reports or Hyros to get a better idea for how well each of your paid advertising campaigns are doing.

Types of Paid Ads for Amarillo, TX PPC Campaigns

In Amarillo, there are many ways to run PPC advertising. Amarillo has a variety of business industries that use paid advertising. Let's take a look at some of the most common ones.

Local Ads within Amarillo

You can use nearly any advertising platform to run local ads for your Amarillo small business. Depending on the nature of your local Amarillo business, you may find better success in one platform versus another. It is important to try out every available option to see which works best for your needs. Let's talk about a few local area advertising choices.

There are going to be two options from Google.

As a first step, you can run traditional Google Adwords, possibly using their newer Performance Max campaign type. The Google algorithm finds the best combination of headlines, images, videos, and service locations to bring you local customers using this type of dynamic ad campaign. We often use Performance Max campaigns for professional services companies in and around Amarillo, such as accountants, lawyers, dentists, and physicians.

Alternatively, if your business qualifies, Google offers a Local Service Ads option. Using Local Service Ads, you get charged a flat fee for each lead the platform generates. Plumbers, electricians, roofers, and heating installers in Amarillo often use Google Local Service Ads.

Facebook Ads can also be used to target people in Amarillo. This is a little more straightforward, since it just involves setting up a campaign that has ad sets with geographic restrictions to Amarillo as a city, or specific Amarillo ZIP codes. We often rely on local Facebook Ads for all types of Amarillo company industries.

Social Media Advertising for Amarillo Small Businesses

Pretty much any online ad you see on a social media network website is going to qualify as a social ad.

The trick to social media advertising is keeping the ad creatives fresh. The performance of your campaign will gradually decline if you do not rotate your ad creatives every couple of weeks. A weekly change in ad creative is often recommended for higher-spend ad campaigns.

The best part of social media marketing is you can target audiences that have never thought of your product or service, or perhaps just aren't thinking about it now. The opposite is true when you run search engine marketing since your ads will only show when someone is actively looking for what your Amarillo business has to offer.

However, this benefit can also be a curse, since conversion rates are typically lower when people aren't closer to making an immediate purchase.

Search Advertising throughout Amarillo

You should invest in search advertising if you know people are searching online for your products or services.

There are some people out there who refer to this as Amarillo Search Engine Marketing, or SEM for short. This is just a different way of explaining search ads, which are advertisements placed on the search results page of a search engine.

If you've been running search engine ads on Google for a while and have been successful at it, we suggest considering copying the campaigns over to the Bing Ads platform. As of an October 2022 study from StatCounter, about 3.57% of online users rely on Bing for their primary search engine.

Display Ads for Amarillo Organizations

Many different message boards, chat rooms, game lounges, news websites (even local area Amarillo news stations), gossip sites, and more run display advertisements.

Bing Ads and Google Ads both offer these.

To get started with display ads, you just need a set of ad creatives in different image sizes. Additionally, you should have a general idea of your target audience, but both ad platforms have algorithms that help you produce results.

Retargeting Ads in Amarillo

Your Amarillo website, landing page, or sales funnel won't convert everyone on the first visit.

Retargeting ads are almost always recommended to help bring people back to your website after they have weighed their options.

You can run retargeting ads on any ad platform, too.

Shopping Ads for Amarillo Ecommerce Companies

This type of search ad was popularized by Google Shopping Campaigns.

To get started with Google Shopping, you just need an ecommerce website, a product feed (CSV or TXT), a Google Merchant Center account, and a Google Ads account for your Amarillo storefront.

With these tools in place, you'll be able to provide Google Ads an updated list of all your accurate product data, including the title, SKU, image, price, and availability. Using that information, they can determine what types of search queries to display your products at the top of search results.

Video Ads within Amarillo

You can run video ads on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and other social media networking websites.

Using YouTube Ads is as basic as setting up a video ad campaign in Google Ads.

Facebook Ads is required if you want to run video ads on Facebook or Instagram.

The conversion potential of video ads is excellent on both platforms. Video ads are frequently used to showcase product launches, custom services, and personal introductions.

If you have the budget to support ad creatives in video format, look to implement them into your Amarillo paid advertising campaigns.
