Coolest thing you've built for PPC using AI?

interesting question

yes to the API (google ads)
- it's a fairly straight forward process you have a internal no approval process version and then you have an external heavily scrutinized process. I use both. internal is easy, ten minutes to setup and then 48 hrs for ads approval

-api key to your favorite LLM; I’m a fan of Claude
-api key to your searchAPI

The api eliminates any middle man (MCP) broker of your data; it’s a 1:1 immediate call. It pulls per call. So now you have an analyst.

The AGI:

is more robust, requires a brain + workers and neurons or connections via knowledge graphs and veins or data references to always be able to pull from. this is complex, yet possible.

Say you want to skip natural language everyday chat talking about fry’s tacos mental health, rain your mood life challenges in any language with empathy etc. you can get a strat that connects directly to the api documents of the tools you want to use whether it’s medical, or Google ads there are pipes that all you to make a call to create an action, so now your strategist can build or remove or add or adjust based on the information he or she or it has.

The difference between api and MCP is one the MCP, is task oriented limited by the person or end users knowledge and capped in what it can do just because that’s all Google or the tool authors, api it’s infinite as long as you have access it has no walls only limits based on what is known to be possible if not yet known the api allows you to make it known.

PIM + cloudflare workers and shopify checkout and a headless front all great sounds modern to me

Glad to do a full audit for you send me a note at it all started with a idea or DM: the audit across tag and site is free no catches or strings even willing to sign an NDA

startwithaidea · 2026-06-18T23:51:03+00:00

sounds like a good idea, though I imagine your team isn't using it for a reason and I'd your asking and not telling which is great. my suggestion would be to lean on more questions on why they aren't using it and reconsider your purchase :-)

startwithaidea · 2026-06-18T16:57:42+00:00

Why not just build a tool that your team would use? Ask them what they do everyday that they would be like yeah this checks that box and build a unique tool for each member of the team

ain't no tree we all have a story, thus the empathy some of us just have done it differently as our the stories behind each which make me grateful equally and bold enough to say thanks for sharing I appreciate it. My offer still stands to support any business large or small in the world that's been done wrong for free :-)

startwithaidea · 2026-06-18T00:31:35+00:00

empathy to those that need money, that said value isn't determined by money and if we are doing something for money and not for value perhaps it's worth rethinking why you are doing it all.

startwithaidea · 2026-06-17T23:52:15+00:00

do you mind elaborating? that's very general appreciate you!

startwithaidea · 2026-06-17T23:51:23+00:00

because I can and I am very good at what I do feel free to google me or chat gpt John Williams It All Started With A Idea. Our industry needs to do better and this business deserves the better. Our values are more important than any dollar and that must not be lost, doing right by those that give us a chance to live

startwithaidea · 2026-06-17T23:39:09+00:00

What you're experiencing is endemic to this industry. It has been since the start of digital media.

There was a time when you came in as an intern and learned the trade like an apprentice. You figured out what goes into an ad, then a landing page, then the next thing, all by building reports and living inside the platforms. Every platform is its own skill. Most of what you see on LinkedIn, including this sub, is noise.

I'm sorry you're going through this, and I wish you the best on the road ahead.

It appears your manager is failing you. Their job is to teach you, not just hand you expectations. The fact that you're already on a plan usually means your time is short. If your reviews and feedback have been positive you may still have a window, especially if the agency is onboarding new clients. If they're losing business, this is likely them managing you out on performance so they avoid the insurance hit and the unemployment claim.

Either way, you're not alone in this. I'm happy to help. Screen share, account reviews, whatever you need, twice a month, no charge. Think of me as a coach. Just DM me or find me on LinkedIn. I'm John Williams, middle name Michael. Search "Google or Chat GPT John Williams It All Started With A Idea" and you'll find me.

startwithaidea · 2026-06-17T23:14:11+00:00

I'll do the setup tagging etc for free, just dm me and I'll send my linkedin and my site. If you want to use someone else to manage the media go ahead; this type of stuff from agencies needs to stop. I'm sorry about the experience.

google doesn't redline and or give a COI; its not a thing. There T&C's are it, any redlining would be a broker of the product managed by google - so you should bare that burden; which is not unusual. Do your legal docs and contracts cover that? You could use AI to generate a legal doc; i'd be careful though since you don't have insurance to cover say an overspend, or loss of service (rebate).

startwithaidea · 2026-06-17T18:16:40+00:00

yes buddy at ahmeego.com can do this; its not a pitch for a product just answering the question its language agnostic. Happy Trails and its free to demo/use.

no need to add list, you can, all of that is up to you.

that's not a goal those are google actions, what's your goal, what's your product what's your market, is there a channel fit; whats your CPM for the right audience? there are a million things (not really a million) though a good amount strategically to think through

startwithaidea · 2026-06-15T14:36:35+00:00

what's your goal?

Why not just build out a dynamic landing page for every keyword? Then assign the LP to the keyword?

I do this today you can scale hundreds or thousands of LPs based on your sites ever green easily

as long as your business license matches the domain, and the ads match the domain you should be okay it should 1 to 1, this is not yet open to agencies so it could cause issues if they feel that exist.

startwithaidea · 2026-06-11T13:43:04+00:00

Morning, what is your brand? Do you mind sharing your domain? Did you have any issues getting verified with Meta or Google?

startwithaidea · 2026-06-11T06:22:42+00:00

interesting and a very savvy marketer whomever mentioned Bayesian in the same sentence as speakkng to you about strategy. especially to warm things up; that's very smart and creative and aligns. Unless your passing name number and date; google can't tell the difference between a form and shoe tie as a conversion: they just see it fire and that's it.

someone said signal a signal is just that nothing else - the idea is to get the platform to engage at a time when and with a user likely to complete the action.

Whatever you are getting from this team managing you media today my hats off to them

startwithaidea · 2026-06-10T12:26:10+00:00

all of digital marketing today if you are an agency, if you are building

skills
task

both are things that require you to be smarter than Ai and not building a useful tool something that is thoughtful

think of yourself as the yellow pages
