Key Insights

🚀 Performance Max Campaign is the Star Performer

The OnlineSales-PMax campaign delivered exceptional results with 575 add to cart actions at an incredibly efficient $0.67 cost per add to cart. The 18.88% add to cart rate is outstanding and shows strong product interest. However, the campaign is limited by its $50 daily budget, which represents a significant scaling opportunity.

🎯 Demand Gen Campaign in Learning Phase

The newly launched Demand Gen campaign spent $622.97 with 0 add to cart actions so far. This is normal for a new campaign in its learning phase. Google's algorithms typically need 2-4 weeks and 50+ conversions to optimize fully. Monitor closely over the next few weeks.

📉 Cost Efficiency Dramatically Improved

Cost per add to cart dropped from $451.05 to $1.76, a 99.6% improvement. This suggests that Google's machine learning has found the right audience segments and bidding strategy. The Performance Max campaign has exited its learning phase and is now performing efficiently at driving product interest.

💰 Budget Allocation Opportunity

With the PMax campaign limited by budget and delivering excellent add to cart rates, there's a strong case for increasing its daily budget from $50 to $75-100. The Demand Gen campaign at $100/day should be monitored for another week before adjusting.

📊 Week-Over-Week Growth Trajectory

The 124% increase in spend yielded a 57,451% increase in add to cart actions, demonstrating exceptional campaign performance at driving product interest. This dramatic improvement indicates that previous optimization efforts have paid off and the account is now scaling efficiently.

Next Week Priorities
