Up to this point, the settings for both types of campaigns are the same. In the next part of the article, I will show you how to create a standard and smart shopping campaign.
Keep in mind that your selection cannot be changed, so choose your campaign subtype wisely. Smart Shopping campaigns use automated bidding and targeting. They take precedence over standard shopping and remarketing campaigns running on the Display Network. A standard campaign, on the other hand, allows for both manual and automated bidding strategies and adjustments. Offer ads and product images will appear on the Google Search Network.

Campaign name, rates, budget
After selecting the product campaign subtype, in the next paytm database step you should enter the campaign name, daily budget and specify the bidding strategy. The next selection gives you the option to change the campaign priority - it is worth doing this if you have more campaigns with the same products running on your account, because without setting the priority, the one with the higher rates will be displayed. If you only have one campaign, set this value to default.

Additionally, you can choose the start and end date of your ad.

The system, as the next setting options, presents us with the configuration of a flexible display ad. Its task is remarketing, i.e. returning with an ad to people who were on the website of the advertised online store. We should add the logo of our store, a marketing image in Google Merchant Center, then fill in the headline, ad text and final URL address. By saving the settings, the Smart Shopping product ad is ready.

As the article shows, preparing a product campaign shouldn't be too difficult. Product ads are one of the most effective ways to promote a store's assortment on the Internet.
