The difference between profitable and failing ecommerce Google Ads campaigns often comes down to four critical columns most marketers and Shopify store owners never check.

In this episode of Ad Spend Secrets, Luke Smith (founder Simply Converting) reveals four essential Google Ads columns that most ecommerce businesses overlook - but are crucial for maximising ROI.

By understanding these columns - you'll gain clarity on where your ad dollars are actually going.

Luke walks through exactly how to use the Products section view to identify which items are consuming your budget versus generating returns in your Shopify store.

You'll discover the crucial difference between important but sometimes confusing metrics, and how this helps identify products that might appear unsuccessful - but are actually driving significant cross-selling revenue.

Plus, learn how to quickly exclude underperforming products to redirect your budget toward higher-converting items.
