Key Updates in the October Demand Gen Drop
1. Attract More New Customers
To start, the New Customer Only Mode helps you find people who have not purchased from you before. In fact, advertisers using this feature saw their new customer ratio increase by 11.5%. Additionally, they lowered acquisition costs by 3%. Consequently, this tool lets you grow your customer base without overspending.

3. Simplify Your Bidding Strategy
Next, Target CPC (Cost-Per-Click) bidding has arrived. This feature allows you to optimize your campaigns using consistent settings across different platforms. Therefore, it makes ad management easier and enables you to compare performance more effectively.
4. Create Videos with AI
In addition, you can now use AI to generate video ads. The AI works to optimize your videos for the best viewer experience. Consequently, you’ll be able to reach more people on YouTube and connect with a wider audience, even if you have a small production budget.
5. Turn Product Feeds into Storefronts
Moreover, you can now integrate your product feeds directly into Demand Gen campaigns. When you combine this with tROAS (Target Return on Ad Spend) goals, advertisers have seen a 20% increase in conversions. As a result, your product list becomes a dynamic virtual storefront, boosting your sales potential.
