FAQ

Performance Max for B2B and lead generation questions from San Francisco operators

Should B2B brands use PMax at all?
Yes, with the caveat that conversion modeling needs to weight downstream events (MQL, SQL, opportunity) heavier than form fills. Without that, PMax optimizes toward easy leads, not pipeline.
How many asset groups should we run?
Two to four. One per product line or persona segment. Below two starves the algorithm; above four splits volume too thin.
Does PMax replace traditional Search campaigns?
Not for branded queries. Branded Search has higher intent and lower CPC. PMax handles non-branded discovery; Search handles brand defense.
What audience signals matter most?
First-party customer match lists and intent audiences. Demographic-only signals underperform.
How long does PMax need to train?
Two to four weeks of consistent budget and conversion volume. Switching strategies before then resets the learning phase.
