THE MICROSOFT DECISIONS

Four places where we diverge from your Google strategy.

The only search platform with professional audience data.

Microsoft Ads is the only search platform that lets you layer LinkedIn audience signals onto keyword campaigns. Target by job title, industry, company size, and seniority, directly inside your search campaigns. For franchise operators selling to business buyers, this is targeting Google cannot offer.

  • Job title and seniority targeting
  • Industry and company size filters
  • Layered onto existing keyword campaigns
02 / THE IGNORED CHANNEL

Every business pours budget into Google. Almost none touch Microsoft.

Most businesses dump their entire paid search budget into Google and never look sideways. That leaves a high-value audience on Bing, Yahoo, and AOL with less competition and lower costs. These are not fringe users, they are Windows default searchers, corporate desktop users, and an older demographic with higher disposable income.

We position Microsoft Ads as a strategic complement to Google. Same intent-based model. Different audience. Lower auction pressure. Better cost efficiency. If you want to maximize every advertising dollar, ignoring Microsoft is leaving money on the table.
