Increased Conversions
Our experience so far suggests it really enhances the focus of ads on google maps and other mobile locations that would might normally slip thru if you just ran google ad words alone. While we have experienced lower click thru rates; the overall number of conversions captured over the entire google franchise is very impressive. Campaigns with existing legacy adwords campaigns seem to be more selective in the visits as it has more data, versus just running it stand alone. Engagements like store directions, phone calls, form submissions, bookmarks, and map visits have increased and after consulting with clients has equated to more foot traffic into their businesses.
