An increasing number of job listings in digital marketing ask for “scripting knowledge” or at least mention it as a desired skill. It’s a big plus on your resume that will make most agencies and many large in-house PPC managers want to hire you.

Knowing how to use Adwords Scripts will also project your career upwards by impressing your colleagues and your boss. Your output will feel like magic to them and they will value and appreciate your work even more than they do already. You will be able to help your colleagues by relieving some of the burdens of boring repetitive PPC tasks and present bigger results (ROI) to your boss. You’ll be the PPC Rockstar in the company. Eventually this enables you to move up in your company; from PPC specialist to PPC analyst to PPC manager and who knows, become PPC director.

Even if you don’t end up staying in PPC, learning Adwords Scripts will teach you things that can be transferred into almost any job you can think of. Coding Javascript is a globally applicable skill to have.

Adwords Scripts will progress your career as a PPC freelancer as well. You can help businesses make more money and as a result make more money for yourself. Thanks to monitoring and alert scripts you will make less mistakes that might cost you clients. Thanks to automated bid management and other scripts for campaign optimization you can deliver more bang for your buck. Clients will notice improved returns and be happier to pay your bills.

Adwords Scripts benefits for agency owners

As an agency owner you want to be working ON your business instead of IN your business. Working on your business will allow it to grow. But working on the business also takes a lot of time. Time you can’t spend in the Adwords interface. Adwords Scripts enable you to spend more time working on the stuff that matters to grow your business by freeing up time and preparing the work you can delegate to your team.

Google Ads Scripts will enable you to drive your cliensts’ account performance. Given the right pricing model this directly translates into additional revenue for your company.

Don’t belive me? Here’s a quote from Christopher Larking, Director of Online Advertising agency Arcalea:

“scripting has improved our performance in many ways, most notably it’s given my agency the ability to think more strategically vs being buried in repetitive tactics that often cannot return the same value for ROE (return on effort)”

 

 

BONUS: Knowing Google Ads Scripts and understanding code gives you an insight into the way the world works that most people don’t have. Algorithms drive the future of humanity. Best be part of it! 🙂
