The general tone around the digital marketing industry lately has been somewhat bleak. Over the last handful of years, specific channels have gotten more and more popular, driving competition to high levels.

PPC is no stranger to the situation above and is, in fact, caught quite in the middle of it. Many paid search clients and accounts are seeing year-over-year budget increases without necessarily the same increases (if any at all) in performance.
What does this mean for paid search? PPC provides a highly controllable channel from which you can test, forecast and project business goals and performance through. It’s time to begin (if you’re not already) utilizing the channel to power your entire marketing plan.
