Retargeting has probably delivered some of the highest returns I've seen. Bringing previous visitors back often costs much less than constantly finding new audiences.
 
I enjoy reading discussions like this because everyone has slightly different experiences. What works brilliantly in one industry can completely fail in another.
 
If you're new to PPC, don't get discouraged by early failures. Almost everyone wastes some budget while learning. The important thing is understanding why it happened and improving from there.
 
One thing I appreciate about Google Ads is the amount of control available. Once you understand the platform, there are countless ways to fine-tune campaigns.
 
I've managed accounts where Facebook completely outperformed Google, particularly for lifestyle products. Visual content can have a huge impact when the product naturally suits social media.
 
I've worked with both platforms for quite a while now, and they each have their place. Google Ads usually brings people who are actively searching for something, while Facebook works well for introducing products to new audiences. I normally recommend using both if the budget allows.
 
The best advice I ever received was to stop making major changes every day. Allowing campaigns enough time to gather meaningful data made my optimisation decisions much more effective.
