ZIP Code Targeting

Geo-targeting can be established at the ZIP code level, with up to 10,000 targets in each campaign or ad group.

Reporting Export Options

There are now more options available in the Export window to control what data gets pulled down so you don’t have to spend your time deleting and filtering unwanted information in Excel.

Other updates include more details in the Import Summary view and advanced options in Sync Settings to filter the campaigns you want to sync, including the ability to copy a list of campaigns from a Word doc, email or Excel.
