Use Performance Planner for campaigns

This is real work, not a feature someone invented — it comes from real job ads and real questions people asked. Below are four ready AI prompts: get it done, make it easy for the next person to say yes to, work out the right move when you are stuck, and stop it coming back.

Before I present these Performance Planner scenarios to the client, make them actionable. Clearly explain the trade-offs between each scenario, highlight the one that best balances cost and conversions for our goals, and flag any assumptions that carry significant risk.

The client just asked for a Performance Planner scenario with a 50% budget increase, but I can't get it to show a proportional increase in conversions.
The client just asked for a Performance Planner scenario with a 50% budget increase, but I can't get it to show a proportional increase in conversions. It's plateauing, and I'm afraid they'll think I'm holding back or that the tool is broken. I can't just say it won't work. What's the most likely reason for this diminishing return in the planner, and how can I explain this to the client effectively, showing them the optimal spend point?

I often struggle to translate Performance Planner insights into clear, convincing recommendations for clients.
I often struggle to translate Performance Planner insights into clear, convincing recommendations for clients. They see numbers, but I need them to understand the 'why' and the 'what next.' What habit should I change to better articulate the strategic implications of these plans and guide clients to confident decisions?

Questions people actually ask

honest answers, no sign-up

Every task here was seen in the real world. Someone doing the job named it, a real job ad asked for it, or a lot of people asked about it online.

If nothing real showed a task, it is not on the page. That is the whole rule.

They are the same job approached four ways, because what you need depends on where you are.

Get it done today. Make it easy for the next person to say yes to. Work out the right move when you are stuck. Learn the pattern so the job stops coming back.

For most of these jobs it can carry the heavy thinking - draft it, sort it, check it, rehearse it with you.

It cannot sit in your chair, take the blame when a number is wrong, or notice what nobody wrote down. Let it do the first 80%. Keep the last 20% that is truly yours.

No. Copy any prompt and paste it into the AI you already use. No account, no score, no wall in the way.

Any of them. The prompts describe the work rather than naming a product, so they are not tied to one assistant.

That is also why they keep working when you switch.

Change it freely. Every prompt is a starting line, not a rule.

Put in your real numbers, your real names and your real deadline. The more you make it yours, the better the answer comes back.

The tasks come from real job ads, published job data and the questions people ask in public forums.

The steps come from Google Ads's own documentation, with practitioner sources for the traps the manual does not mention.

Push once. Ask it to sharpen the weakest part and to say what it assumed.

Most wrong answers come from a missing detail rather than a bad prompt - tell it the thing it could not know.
