Working at a lead generation company, we hear the question all the time:
“Why can’t I just run Google Ads myself?”
The answer is simple: because chances are, you’ll waste money—a lot of it.
Sure, running ads might look as easy as clicking a few buttons, but behind every successful campaign, there’s a lot of expertise, data, and technology that most business owners don’t have at their fingertips.
What Agencies Have (That You Probably Don’t)
- Powerful software to run and optimize ads in real time
- Keyword lists a mile long, built from years of testing and refining
- Access to hundreds of accounts so we can spot industry trends before you ever hear about them
- A whole team of certified pros from different marketing backgrounds, each bringing unique expertise
What It Takes to DIY (and Do It Well)
We’re not saying you can’t do it yourself. But here’s the reality check:
Do you have…
- The time and money to buy and learn advanced ad software?
- The patience (and budget) to build massive keyword lists and test them over months, even years?
- A network of colleagues willing to share their ad account data so you can benchmark performance?
- The commitment to become certified in multiple ad platforms, and then hire a team that is also certified?
If the answer to any of these questions is “no,” you’re already starting at a disadvantage. If the answer is “yes”, good for you! Check out this guide on how to get more leads with Google Ads.
It just makes sense
I wouldn’t try to install a new roof myself and expect to be successful with no experience or crew. I’d probably fall off.
So why would you start a PPC campaign and expect to be successful without the right tools, training, and team? The result could be the marketing equivalent of falling off your business’s growth curve.
