AI is automating and improving the efficiency of pay-per-click campaigns. However, it is not intended to replace the marketing strategist or PPC manager. The marketing team is more important than ever in offering high-quality, manual creative ad assets to the ad platforms, which inform the AI machine.

“Automatically created assets,” where the “asset” is the headline or description of the advertisement, are how the AI power component is used. What the advertiser writes and inputs into Google Ads is referred to as “manual assets.”

Content needs a new approach in the age of AI, as AI is redefining how people search and what marketing creative needs to deliver. As users increasingly make decisions within a single, AI-powered interface, it is harder to perfectly message map creative to ideal personas throughout their buying journey. Successful brands are harnessing assets that are adaptable, scalable, and ready to respond instantly. Tools like Microsoft Copilot are reshaping where and how creative appears, modular content giving marketers the agility to show up with relevance in any moment of intent.

Modular content matters in AI-powered search. Modular content breaking campaigns into smaller, reusable blocks like headlines, benefits, images, proof points, and CTAs, each tagged with metadata for audience, intent, or format. The components can be mixed and matched across various touchpoints, like Copilot answers, paid search ads, social carousels, and beyond. By contrast, traditional creative content

1. Landing Page And Website

Landing page and website content are key aspects of getting the most from AI. AI algorithms need content to draw from, and the better the content, the more potential outputs they have. After providing the URL, Google would find the relevant information on the page to generate ad creative.

Clever, flowery marketing language or excessive jargon takes a back seat to concise, fact-based language. For some smaller advertisers who do not have complete control over frequent content changes without incurring web dev fees, keeping content up to date can be challenging.

Landing page content aligning with the ad copy, keywords and messaging should be consistent with the search ads to maintain user trust and engagement. Highlighting the unique benefits or solutions your product/service offers, use compelling headlines and subheadlines that immediately capture the visitor’s attention.

2. Manual Assets  

“Manual assets” are the headlines and descriptions that you write and enter into Google Ads. Since the headlines and descriptions are served in many combinations, it is important that the assets communicate a cohesive message. Enabling AI would enable the automatic generation of descriptions to be thrown into the mix.

15 headlines with a maximum of 30 characters, trying to assign a strategy to the type and number of headlines. For instance, brand name, keywords from the adgroup, CTA, and feature/benefit.

Up to 4 total, with up to 90 characters per description. In the end, the advertisement should be clear, succinct, and convincing enough to encourage users to click and convert, even though you should employ keywords, creative headlines, and take Google recommendations into account.

3. Keywords

Keywords are still important in search campaigns with automated assets since they tell Google and, eventually, your customer what the advertisement is about. In terms of account structure and keyword selection, adhere to best practices. Your landing page and advertisement should always be directly related to the keywords.

Now is an excellent opportunity to analyze and assess your keywords, keeping AI automation in mind, if haven’t been a perfectionist lately. An excellent shortcut is to navigate to the ad ideas section of the ad creation tool. Google would display “popular keywords from the adgroup,” which you can click to include as a headline.

Final Thoughts

AI in ads and automatically generated assets is that it is a “set and forget” model that solves problems with ad management resources, time, and performance. The process enables AI to take knowledge, strategy, and ongoing management to ensure the messages served to your ideal customers meet and exceed what is done manually. This can be achieved with humans setting it up for success.
