Performance Max Insights

Evaluate the performance of your PMax campaigns & discover your uplift potential.

Do you face the same challenges
as online retailers we work with?

Heavy focus on
top sellers

PMax prioritizes bestsellers and neglects longtail products, leading to challenges in predicting product performance, missed revenue opportunities, & slower business growth.

Common setup for
all & no control

PMax lacks steering options, especially without first-party data like margins, stock levels & seasonality, leading to equal treatment of all products. Consequence? Lower margins, AOV drop & lower ROAS.

Lack of reporting
transparency

PMax's campaign performance is unclear on a product level, making optimization way harder. It's hard to know which products perform best, need priority or generate revenue from brand traffic.

What you can learn from this data: figure out if you're experiencing a best seller bias; forecast which products have a possibility to be top sellers; understand how not to rely only on just a handful of products to drive your revenue.
