As a newly started company with a small budget, what would be the most effective way to approach Google Ads to maximize results without overspending? Are there specific strategies or campaign types you would recommend starting with? Thanks in advance!
Topic summary
A newly started company seeks advice on maximizing Google Ads effectiveness with limited budget while avoiding overspending.
Key Recommendations:
-
Budget Management: Set a budget you can afford, but note that staying within budget doesn’t guarantee profitability.
-
Testing Approach: Experiment with different strategies, as effectiveness varies by account.
Two Suggested Starting Strategies:
-
Performance Max (without ad assets): Limits ads to shopping and display formats only, simplifying initial setup.
-
Standard Shopping (advanced setup): Enables targeting specific search terms to avoid wasting budget on generic, low-intent queries.
Both approaches include video tutorials for implementation. The discussion remains open for the original poster to test and report results.

Hello DeArt, thank you for your question.
With regards to overspending, always make sure you assign a budget, that you can afford. Of course, when you set a budget, it doesn’t mean it is profitable.
So there are two ways to move forward, and as always experimenting and testing is recommended to find what works best. Not every strategy works with every account.
You could start with Performance mas with no ad assets, that means your ads are only for shopping ads and display ads, explained here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6VhX7MqIgY
You could also start with standard shopping with an advanced setup that allows you to target specific search terms, this to avoid spending on generic search terms. Here is an explainer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiRIDzRrHno
