How do you launch Google Shopping and Performance Max from scratch?.
Start with the product feed and Merchant Center — without these campaigns won't run
Launching Google Shopping and Performance Max involves several mandatory stages. The critical piece is a correct product feed in Google Merchant Center: that is where Google pulls data for search cards and for the Performance Max AI. Without an approved feed campaigns won't start. At the same time you need to set up conversion tracking — without it the AI cannot learn or optimise bids toward your ROAS target. After launch, the first 2–4 weeks are the algorithm learning period: avoid sudden changes to budget or settings.
Google Shopping: products with photo, price and store name right in the results.
1Open a Google Merchant Center account and verify ownership of the domain.
2Prepare the product feed: title, description, price, availability, image_link, gtin/mpn.
3Upload the feed to Merchant Center — via Google Sheets, XML or API — and get products approved.
4Link Merchant Center to your Google Ads account.
5Set up conversion tracking (purchases, carts, micro-conversions) via the Google tag or GA4.
6Create a Standard Shopping campaign to test bids and product group structure.
7Launch the Performance Max campaign: upload assets (texts, images, video) and set the target ROAS.
8Wait for the learning period to end (2–4 weeks) and analyse the asset group report.
How much does Google Shopping and Performance Max setup cost?.
Performance Max: one budget — Google AI covers all channels around your target ROAS.
Price depends on catalogue size, number of campaigns and depth of conversion analytics
Cost is made up of Merchant Center and feed setup, campaign creation and structuring, conversion analytics configuration and monthly management. The more SKUs and the more complex the product group segmentation, the higher the workload. The click budget is a separate item — it goes directly to Google and depends on the niche.

Scaling ROAS across all channels
How does Performance Max use Google's AI to grow sales?.
Google's AI unites all channels into one managed flow around a target ROAS
Performance Max is a campaign type where Google's AI takes your assets (texts, images, video, product feed) and independently decides who to show ads to, when and on which channel. The core is machine learning models that train on your account's conversion data. The more conversions accumulated, the more precisely the algorithm distributes the budget. The key metric is ROAS (revenue per euro of ad spend): you set the target ROAS and the AI optimises toward it. The minimum threshold for stable performance is around 30–50 conversions per month according to Google data.

In short
In short: what Google Shopping and Performance Max give an online store.
Google Shopping puts your products with photo and price directly in search, delivering high ROAS thanks to the commercial intent of the query. Performance Max scales the result: one budget, Google's AI distributes impressions across Search, YouTube, Gmail, Maps and Display toward a conversion goal. The foundation of both formats is a correct product feed in Merchant Center and conversion analytics in place. Without a quality feed products won't be approved; without analytics the AI can't learn and optimise bids. Launch takes 1–3 weeks depending on catalogue size and account readiness.
