"AI Marketing is Here, Actually its Already Been Here"

00:09— Our Technique this week is; "AI Marketing is Here, Actually its Already Been Here"

Shiny new tools:

 Google’s latest Performance Max additions focus on planning, customization, and evaluation:


  • The Performance Planner uses machine learning to “simulate” campaigns and forecast your potential ROI. Super useful, if accurate.
  • Asset group scheduling helps you schedule asset groups so you can pause or enable them when needed. Also, you can now add up to 15 headlines to your asset groups.
  • Explanations and insights show why campaigns may not work, perform diagnostics, and give recommendations. You can also add data segments as data signals in your campaigns, which may help you evaluate your first-party data.

Google also suggests best practices for these new features, so check out their full description. It may give you an edge in the following weeks!


Bumpers and trim:

 Also, you can now trim videos into 6-second shorts, which should make it easy to create bumper ads.


The machine learning-powered tool finds “important scenes and brand assets from the original video” and adapts them to shorter formats… all by itself. Sweet.


Why we care:

 Google seems to be using the upcoming holiday online shopping spree as a testing ground for their machine learning capabilities.

Three take-aways:

  1. In short, the US hotel industry occupancy percentage growth rate has dropped 50 basis points in each of the past two years.
  2. Average daily rate growth has also been cut in half since last year.
  3. Unfortunately that combination produces a pathetic 0.74% growth rate in revenue per available room.

Bottom line, the industry isn't growing, eliminating any cushion for any looming demand displacement.



So with global market volatility imitating a roller-coaster, group events and corporate travel under intense scrutiny, and new COVID-19 cases popping up across the nation...
