    Darren Fox, Founder and President, Idea Marketing Group, Inc.

    There's a big difference between running successful Google Ads and wasting money on ineffective campaigns. MORE >

    When potential customers search for your company, your products or your services, competition can be intense. Google Ads (also called “Pay-Per-Click” campaigns) are the only way to guarantee your company will appear on the first page of Google’s search results.

    Google Ads can be expensive...if they’re done wrong.

    You can run your own Google Ads campaigns. But, if you don’t have the proper training and experience, you’ll end up spending a lot of money and see very little results.

The question comes in many formats and learning to recognize the question and, more importantly, learning how to answer this question is critical to a successful outcome. What are the underlying reasons you are being asked this question? What is the most effective way to answer? MORE >
