https://www.pn.com.au/blog/5-things-you-need-to-know-before-applying-for-the-google-ad-grant/For many organisations, online advertising can sometimes prove to be confusing and hard to manage if you don’t have a background in Digital Marketing. At PN Digital, we love helping organisations succeed, especially those who operate to make a positive impact in society, and have partnered with Connecting Up to offer a discounted Google Ad Grant management service.
The Google Ad Grant is a $10,000USD grant that Google awards to eligible NFPs to put towards their digital ad campaigns. PN Digital’s management service helps organisations who have already successfully applied for the grant but who do not have the internal resources to manage the ad campaigns themselves.
If you have already successfully applied for the grant and want help managing it then we invite you to get in touch to discuss how we can help. If you are thinking about applying for the grant and want to know more then read our top 5 things to know before applying:
1. How does Google Ads work?
For those who are unfamiliar with how Google Ads work, here’s a short overview. Google Ads, previously known as Google AdWords, is Google’s advertising system where advertisers (aka your organisation) bid on certain keywords for their clickable ads to appear in a Google search. When a user clicks on your ad, it will direct them to your website and voila! you have a new site visitor.
When a user clicks on your ad, advertisers pay a fee to Google (which is covered by the grant) which varies depending on keywords used as well as what other advertisers are willing to pay in the keyword auction. Organisations who successfully apply for the grant will have a budget of up to $10,000USD each month to spend on Google Ads, to help them drive traffic to their website and/or campaign landing page.
2. How can PN Digital help?
As Google Ad Grand specialists, PN Digital will help you manage your Ad Grant account. There are certain criteria that must be met to retain your grant, including quality scores, click through rates and conversions. If you aren’t meeting these baseline requirements, you will forfeit your grant.

As Google Ad Grant managers, our job is to create an effective campaign for your business that will drive focused, highly convertible traffic. We also set up measurement techniques so that we can show you the value you’re getting out of your grant.
