Google Ads is one of the most powerful tools for driving leads and sales, but many small business owners and marketers struggle to get the results they want.

If you’re running Google Ads (or thinking about it), don’t let these five myths hold you back. Let’s break them down—along with actionable fixes to make your campaigns more effective.
