PMax Campaigns Audience Signals

Performance Max works best when it knows who to go after. With Primer, you can feed it high-intent audience signals—like decision-makers at mid-market companies, or people showing strong buying intent. These tailored signals help guide Google’s automation toward the leads that actually matter, improving efficiency and conversion quality.
