Google AdWords Advertiser Guide
The Spectrum Group Online is a certified Google Partner. That means we follow the quality and ethical guidelines set by Google. Even so, we highly recommend our clients read Google’s Advertiser Guide on working with a third-party vendor.
We charge a fee to manage your AdWords and/or AdCenter account; this fee may be a flat fee or a percentage of your advertising spend. We will provide written information about our fees before starting work on your advertising campaigns. Additionally, you will receive an invoice or statement each month for work completed on your behalf.
One of our differentiators is transparency; we believe our clients should own their accounts. Before working with us, you will open your own AdWords and AdCenter accounts. Then, you will grant us administrative access. If you want information about your account, including Customer ID, we will be happy to share this information. We will also show you the work we complete on your behalf at any time. In our status meetings or reports, we will show you performance information including cost, clicks and impressions.
