Step by step

  1. 01

    Conversion tracking first

    PMax learns from conversions — never launch without it.

  2. 02

    Asset groups by theme

    Group products/services by audience or category.

  3. 03

    Upload 5+ assets of each type

    Headlines, descriptions, images, videos, logos.

  4. 04

    Audience signals (not targets)

    Feed customer lists and high-intent keywords as hints.

  5. 05

    Add brand exclusions

    Prevents PMax from cannibalizing your free brand traffic.
