PPC Management Tool to Plan, Run and Measure Your Ads

Plan a Google Ads budget from real keyword costs before you spend, see who is advertising on your keywords, run your Google Ads and Meta Ads campaigns, and measure what every channel really earns.

What is PPC management?

PPC (pay-per-click) management is planning, running and improving the ads you pay for per click, on Google Search or on Facebook and Instagram. It covers choosing keywords, setting budgets, writing ads and checking whether the money comes back.

MarketNOW splits it into three tools that work together: PPC Planner to plan before you spend, Ads Manager to run your campaigns, and ROI Analytics to measure the return of every channel.

  • Run the campaigns — Connect Google Ads or Meta Ads, start a campaign from your plan, and pause or change budgets from MarketNOW.
  • Measure the return — Track clicks with short links, add your revenue, and see the profit and ROI of every channel.

Ads Manager: run Google Ads and Meta Ads

  • Connect Your Ad Accounts — Sign in to Google Ads and Meta Ads securely and pick the ad account to manage. For Meta, choose the Facebook Page the ads run as.
  • Campaign Results — Every campaign with its status, daily budget, spend, clicks and results for the last 30 days.
  • Pause, Resume and Budgets — Pause or resume a campaign and change its daily budget without leaving MarketNOW.
  • New Campaigns — Create a Google Search campaign with keywords and a responsive search ad, or a Meta traffic campaign with a link ad. New campaigns start paused, so you review them first.
  • Change History — Every change made to the account through MarketNOW, in one list.

ROI Analytics: measure what each channel earns

  • Tracked Links — A short link for any post, page or ad, with tracking tags added for you. Link-preview bots aren't counted as clicks.
  • Spend and Revenue — Add costs and sales by hand, upload a CSV, use a website snippet, or connect Stripe, Shopify, WooCommerce or Razorpay.
  • Channel Performance — Spend, revenue, profit and ROI for each channel, from LinkedIn and email to your blog and ads.
  • Revenue, Spend and Profit — Trends over time and a funnel from clicks to conversions to revenue, compared with the previous 30 days.
  • Unattributed Revenue — Sales that can't be linked to a tracked post are flagged, so you know how much of your revenue is explained.

5. ROI Analytics (sample data): revenue, profit and ROI for every channel, with unlinked revenue flagged.

Estimates before you spend, real numbers after

PPC Planner gives estimates: it uses real keyword costs and search demand, but the clicks and sales are worked out with Google Ads average rates, not your own account. Treat them as a guide for setting a budget.

Once campaigns run, the real numbers come from your connected ad accounts in Ads Manager and from the clicks and revenue in ROI Analytics.

Spend on Ads With Your Eyes Open

Plan the budget from real keyword costs, run your campaigns and see what every channel really returns.
