Google’s remarketing tag is one of the most underused tools that I see anywhere when I look into ad campaigns. When it comes to running Google ads, you need to check if your ads are well-optimized, if your ads are properly running and targeted, and if you are following up on hot leads.

But most of the time, I don’t even see a remarketing tag used or activated. I don’t see this feature built into the marketing campaigns. This will result in a huge waste of money.

If you don’t have your remarketing tags properly configured and utilized, then you are probably paying more. If you are spending more than you convert customers, then your business won’t ever be a success using Google ads.

Remarketing tag is very important in lowering your ad costs since you are not wasting any paid click by retargeting people who already clicked on your ads and successfully converting them to customers,
