In case you haven’t heard, Google has announced that it’s helping NZ small businesses by giving them $75 worth of free search advertising.

There’s a catch – you must be new to Google Adwords.

On the Google landing page, they say:

“We’re giving New Zealand businesses the opportunity to get $75 of free advertising on Google sites. In these challenging times, advertising on Google sites gives you a cost effective and measurable way of reaching prospective customers at the exact moment when they’re searching online for your products or services.”

How can advertising online with Google help your business?
  • Reach people searching specifically for your product or service.
  • Pay only when people click on your ads.
  • Control your advertising costs: set your daily spend limit, there’s no minimum spend or contract required.
