In short
Google Shopping is one of the most effective ways to bring products directly to the attention of potential customers. With Shopping Ads, your products appear at the top of Google with an image, price and product information. This makes Shopping a powerful advertising channel for e-commerce businesses looking to increase sales.
At Taskforce, we ensure that your Shopping campaigns are not only visible, but also profitable. Through smart bidding strategies, accurate tracking and continuous optimisation, we maximise the return on your ad budget.

What are Shopping Ads and why are they important?
Shopping Ads zijn productadvertenties die boven de zoekresultaten in Google verschijnen. In tegenstelling tot tekstadvertenties, tonen Shopping Ads direct een afbeelding, titel, prijs (waaronder steeds vaker de verplichte prijs per stuk) en de naam van de verkoper. Dit zorgt ervoor dat klanten sneller doorklikken en eerder overgaan tot aankoop.
A properly optimised Shopping campaign ensures that your ad budget is only used on products and searches that are actually profitable. Without a smart approach, costs can quickly add up without leading to more sales. That is why at Taskforce we focus on Shopping campaigns that not only generate sales, but also contribute to the profitability of your webshop.
Our approach to Shopping Advertising
To make Shopping Ads successful, we take a data-driven and strategic approach.
1. Feed optimisation
The basis of a successful Shopping campaign is a well-optimised product feed. We ensure that product titles, descriptions and prices are optimised for maximum visibility and relevance.
2. Smart bidding strategies
We use AI-driven bidding strategies and POAS (Profit on Ad Spend) optimisation to ensure your ads remain profitable.
3. Segmentation and structure
We cleverly allocate products based on margin, category and performance, allowing us to apply specific bidding strategies by product group.
4. Accurate tracking and data analysis
With tools like Profitmetrics and server-side tracking, we accurately measure conversions and analyse which products generate the most return.
5. Continuous optimisation
Shopping Advertising is a continuous process. We monitor performance daily and make adjustments where necessary to increase the efficiency of campaigns.
Which KPIs do we measure?
In Shopping Ads, we focus on the following KPIs to continuously improve performance:
- Click ratio (CTR) - How many people click on the ad?
- Conversions and conversion rate - How many visitors convert their click into a purchase?
- Cost per conversion (CPA) - What is the advertising cost per sale?
- ROAS and POAS - How much revenue or profit is generated per euro spent?
- Quality of the product feed - How well do product titles and descriptions match search queries?

Veelgestelde vragen over Google Shopping
Do I still need a separate Shopping campaign alongside Performance Max?
That depends on your situation. A standalone Shopping campaign gives you more direct control over bids per product, whilst Performance Max takes a broader approach across multiple channels at the same time. We’ll work with you to determine which combination best suits your objectives.
What happens if my product feed contains errors?
Google rejects products with incorrect or missing data, meaning they won’t be displayed. That’s why we continuously check the feed for data quality, before it affects your visibility.
Is Google Shopping still profitable with a small product range?
Ja, ook met een beperkt assortiment kan Shopping goed werken. De focus ligt dan minder op segmentatie per productgroep en meer op scherpe biedstrategieën en een feed die tot in detail is geoptimaliseerd.
