tactics
• Make data driven decisions without sacrificing your spend
(bid low, optimize towards low eCPC to drive efficient
traffic to site)
• Be mindful of the audience targeting flat fee (choose
relevant, low cost segments)
• Remember: Some tactics don’t seamlessly report
conversions (mobile app). These are still valuable tactics
to include, but set expectations accordingly
