  3. Start your advertising with standard shopping campaigns, so you can learn which search terms are being used. So don’t use PMax to begin with.
  4. Make sure you have a high enough daily budget, like $50 / £50 per day, to ensure you are getting traction
  5. Ensure your conversion tracking is working as well as your remarketing tracking.
