Smart Shopping campaigns simplify campaign management by automating which of the following? Select All Correct Responses
Correct Answer
All of the above
Key takeaways
Ad creation, targeting and bidding are all automated together.
Creative is assembled from your feed images and text assets.
Automating all three is what removes the ongoing management work.
Why is this the correct answer?
All three are automated together, which is why the campaign type is described as simplifying management. Creative is assembled from your product images and text assets, targeting decides which audiences and placements to pursue across Search, Display, YouTube and Gmail, and bidding prices each auction towards conversion value. Automating any one of those alone would leave the other two as daily work.
Why are the other options wrong?
Ad creation
Ad creation is automated, but so are targeting and bidding, so choosing it alone is incomplete.
Targeting
Targeting is automated, but it is one of three rather than the whole answer.
Bidding
Bidding is automated too — again, only part of what the campaign type takes over.
Frequently asked questions about this topic
What work remains for the advertiser?
Feed quality above all, plus budget, the target return and which products are included. Those inputs set the ceiling on what the automation can achieve, so that is where the time goes.
