Frequently Asked Questions:

What does adding LTV to Google Ads actually mean?

It means creating a custom Google Ads column that tracks Life Time Value. This number can be useful for seeing how effective your ad campaigns are.

Do I need e-commerce to use LTV in Google Ads?

No. Service businesses can do it by assigning values to qualified leads, opportunities, and closed-won revenue, then importing those values back into Google Ads.

What’s the difference between LTV and conversion value?

Conversion value is what Google Ads uses for optimization and reporting. LTV is how you decide that value (usually based on downstream revenue, retention, and margins).

Should I use average LTV or per-customer LTV?

Per-customer value is best when you can do it. If you can’t, start with stage-based averages and improve over time as data quality increases.

Will importing LTV improve automated bidding?

Usually, yes. If the values are consistent and not inflated. Smart Bidding performs better when values reflect true business value, not vanity conversions.

What are the most common mistakes when adding LTV?

Double counting conversions, importing values with the wrong timestamps, and mixing lead generation.

How long does it take before LTV optimization actually helps performance?

You typically need enough volume for Smart Bidding to adapt, often a few weeks of consistent data.
