In this blog post, we are excited to share the key highlights and insights gained from this amazing event. Join us as we explore how AI is revolutionising the marketing industry and shaping its dynamic landscape.

Google has introduced a game-changing feature – AI-driven chat for creating Google Ads campaigns directly within the Google Ads interface. This new asset creation feature is designed to lighten your load, giving you more time to focus on strategy and growth. Plus, you’ll have the final say – you can tweak the AI-generated assets before they go live.
A New Era: The Search Generative Experience
The Google Search Generative Experience (SGE) is a promising innovation that aims to integrate Search and Shopping ads directly. Still in the experimental stage, this groundbreaking feature offers a sneak peek into the future of monetised SGE. This is the kind of edge that can set you apart in the marketplace
Maximise Performance with PMax
Performance Max (PMax) campaigns are about to get even better. With the addition of generative AI to create text assets and images, your campaigns will have an edge in the increasingly competitive digital market. Two new goal enhancements will also help you steer PMax efforts towards your ideal customers, boosting your return on investment..

Harness the Power of AI with Google Product Studio
The Google Product Studio tool is your new secret weapon. It allows you to manipulate product photos, edit, enhance, or even sharpen photos via Google AI. It’s time to take your product images to the next level and create a visual brand that truly stands out.
The Next Generation: Google Merchant Center Next
The Google Merchant Center is evolving into Google Merchant Center Next by 2024. This simplified platform will streamline the product feed creation process, reducing the technical work and making it easier for you to showcase your products. An improved UI and insights in the Performance tab promise to enhance your user experience within the platform.
Tactical Tools for Success
Google Ads is set to get even better, with several tactical elements on the way. These include better insights, more tools to guide Google around brand restrictions, and the power of AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) in Smart Bidding. This is your chance to take your Google Ads account to the next level.
Expand Your Reach with New Campaign Types
