In this article we will review the Google call ad and guide you step by step how to set up such an ad in your advertising account.

A lot of business owners put most of the money into their business from phone sales, or at least a hefty percentage of it. WHEN WE CREATE AN AD THAT DIRECTS PEOPLE DIRECTLY TO A PHONE CALL WE ARE ACTUALLY BRINGING THE CUSTOMER STRAIGHT TO US ON THE PHONE, WHERE FOR SOME OF US IT IS OUR HOME PITCH AND WHERE WE CAN GUARANTEE A HIGH CHANCE OF CONVERTING THE HALIDE TO BUY, RATHER THAN SIMPLY SENDING IT TO A SITE WHERE IT MIGHT GET LOST, NOT LEAVING DETAILS OR ABANDONING A CART.

Google call ads are a type of Google ad that allows business owners to encourage people to call their business directly from the search engine. The ads only appear on devices you can call from, such as smartphones and tablets.

When a potential customer clicks on an ad for calls, the customer's device automatically calls the business' phone number. This allows businesses to connect with potential customers instantly and efficiently.
