			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Regular readers know that in the last few months we&#8217;ve taken to including cartoons in our newsletter &#8211; we use <a href="http://www.flantoons.co.uk/" target="_blank">Mike Flanagan of Flantoons</a> and he&#8217;s fab <img src='http://nikkipilk.sc10.co.uk/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>This month our newsletter will focus on Google Adwords help, and our September special offer, which is a <a href="http://www.nikkipilkington.com/google-adwords-management/september-offer" target="_blank">Google Adwords Healthcheck</a> for just £40.</p>
<p>One of the things that we find a lot of when doing these healthchecks is that people are often getting thousnds of clicks on their ads per month, but no sales from their site. Obviously this could be for a number of reasons, but one of the reasons we come across a lot is that thy simply haven&#8217;t thought their keyphrases through properly, and haven&#8217;t made sure that they&#8217;re not getting clicks that were meant for some other product or service.</p>
<p>To illustrate this, Mike came up with 2 cartoons &#8211; and we love them. The first one is below, as although it makes me (Nikki) giggle every time I look at it, I have the feeling that some of our more staid readers may not like to see it in their inbox <img src='http://nikkipilk.sc10.co.uk/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><a href="http://nikkipilk.sc10.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rabbit11.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-488" title="rabbit1" src="http://nikkipilk.sc10.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rabbit11-1024x736.jpg" alt="rabbit1" width="514" height="369" /></a></p>
<p>We&#8217;ll probably go with the other cartoon (sign up to the newsletter if you want to see it!) but I think the above one does a great job of showing just one of the mistakes you could be making with Adwords &#8211; it might be worth having a <a href="http://www.nikkipilkington.com/google-adwords-management/september-offer" target="_blank">Google Adwords healthcheck</a> to find out if you&#8217;re making more!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>STOP PRESS &#8211; READ THIS FIRST!</strong></em></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>OK, we get a lot of visits to this page. We also get a lot of phone calls to our office, and comments left below, the majority of which I remove for being abusive. So I&#8217;m afraid I&#8217;m going to shout: WE&#8217;RE NOT GOOGLE! All we&#8217;ve done is provide a customer support phone number for them &#8211; in the post, below. Please stop calling us and asking poor Leigh: &#8220;Are you Google?&#8221; or we&#8217;ll consider setting up a premium number&#8230;. thanks!</strong></em></span></p>
<p>When you&#8217;re spending money with Google, it&#8217;s nice to know you can get hold of them, right?</p>
<p>Well they don&#8217;t make it easy, but there is a number that connects to their very helpful customer support department in Ireland. Make sure you know your Customer ID number (in the top right hand corner of your Adwords account), then give them a call on <strong>0845 358 0038</strong> &#8211; you have to press 2 and then enter your ID number once connected.</p>
<p>They&#8217;re very good at calling back when they say they will, and can sort most problems very quickly.</p>
<p>[Edited to add 14/08/09 - an email in today tells us: "<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Your Google phone number has been very good but they have changed the option 2 to enter your ID and then give a recorded message to got to the web help menu.
