PPC campaign Audit & Setup
Industrial campaigns require more granular ad group architecture than most verticals. Product categories, application types, and buyer roles each warrant separate ad groups with distinct keyword lists and match type strategies. Exact and phrase match dominate — broad match in industrial surfaces too many irrelevant queries from researchers and students, not buyers with active purchase intent.
Negative keyword management is continuous and critical. Terms signaling informational intent, competitor brand names, and non-commercial queries all need to be excluded to keep spend focused on procurement-stage searches. Industry-specific exclusions protect budget from queries that look relevant but never convert to a real inquiry.
Every ad group is built around how industrial buyers actually search — not how category managers think they search.
