Why Budget Pacing is Critical

What is Budget Pacing?

Budget pacing is the process of monitoring your advertising spend to see how it compares to your pre-allocated budget. It answers a simple but critical question: “Are we spending our money at the right speed?” Proper pacing ensures you spend your entire budget evenly over the campaign period, without running out of money too early or having to rush to spend it at the end.

Interpreting Your Results

On Pace: Your actual spend is aligned with your ideal spend. Your campaign is on track to spend the full budget by the end date. No immediate action is needed.
Overspending: You are spending your budget faster than planned. You risk running out of money before the campaign ends. Consider lowering your daily bids or budgets.
Underspending: You are spending slower than planned. You may not spend your full budget, missing out on potential results. Consider increasing your bids or expanding your targeting.
