Campaign Launch Guide

Use this skill with the burnr8 MCP tools to plan and launch a new search campaign.

Pre-Launch Checklist

Before launching, confirm with the user:

What product/service is being promoted?
What is the landing page URL?
What is the daily budget?
What is the target CPA or ROAS?
Who is the ideal customer?

Step 1: Keyword Research

Call research_keywords with seed keywords from the product description.

Evaluate results by:

Monthly search volume: ignore < 100/mo
Competition level: prefer LOW/MEDIUM for new campaigns
Top-of-page bid: sets CPC expectations

NOTE: research_keywords requires an account with active campaigns and billing enabled. If it returns empty results, ask the user for keywords manually.

Step 2: Campaign Structure

Recommend themed ad groups. Each ad group should:

Have 5-15 tightly related keywords
Share a common intent (e.g., "buy X" vs "X reviews")
Start with Broad Match + Maximize Conversions (Smart Bidding needs data)

Do NOT create SKAGs (single keyword ad groups) — they fragment data and hurt Smart Bidding.

Step 3: Write Ad Copy

Write 15 headlines (max 30 chars each) and 4 descriptions (max 90 chars each).

Headline angles — use variety across all of these:

Keyword: include the primary keyword verbatim
CTA: "Start Free", "Try Now", "Get Started"
Price/Offer: "$9.99/mo", "7-Day Free Trial"
Social Proof: "Join 5,000+ Users", "Rated #1"
Feature: "AI-Powered", "1200+ Questions"
Pain Point: "Stop Wasting Time", "Struggling With..."
Differentiator: "Unlike Competitor", "No Credit Card"

Do NOT pin headlines unless strategically necessary — it reduces RSA flexibility.

Step 4: Launch

Call launch_campaign with all components. It creates:

Budget (daily, non-shared, explicitly_shared=false)
Campaign (PAUSED, Search, correct network settings)
Ad group with keywords (Broad match)
Responsive Search Ad

Step 5: Post-Launch Checklist

After launch_campaign succeeds:

Confirm campaign is PAUSED (it always starts paused)
Verify geo targeting: call get_geo_target_type_setting — should be PRESENCE not PRESENCE_OR_INTEREST
Recommend adding extensions:
- 4+ sitelinks (call create_sitelink)
- 4+ callouts (call create_callout)
- Structured snippets (call create_structured_snippet)
Remind user: enable campaign only when ready (set_campaign_status requires confirm=true)
Set expectations: wait 2 weeks for learning phase before optimizing
