Ads Lens for industrial coatings

B2B Google Ads exoskeleton — injected over the native UI, applied to industrial coatings & surface finishing.

Coating shop ad accounts live in the Google Ads interface all day — pulling search terms, reviewing keywords, flagging contamination patterns. Ads Lens strips away the distraction layer and lets you work directly in the native UI without context-switching to scripts or external dashboards. In industrial coatings, where your search-term report is full of hobby powder-coat queries mixed with legitimate ASTM-B633 zinc-plating RFQs, the macro filter row is the difference between spotting contamination in five minutes and drowning in 500 irrelevant terms. The n-gram report built into Ads Lens catches the specification patterns (Type II, Type III, SC3, salt-spray ASTM) that are actually converting, so you can bid harder on those exact combinations and bury the hobby stuff. Run the statistical-significance scanner weekly on your search terms — it flags when a specification keyword cluster crosses the threshold from "might be real" to "actually converts" so you stop guessing. Recommendation: use the exclude queue to bulk-harvest all the B2C contamination keywords (motorcycle, wheel, frame, hot rod, restoration) in one session, then run it monthly to catch new patterns as Smart Bidding finds cheaper pools.

About Ads Lens

A content-script overlay that lives directly on top of the Google Ads interface. Adds a macro filter row, a statistical-significance scanner, per-business-day metrics, an exclude queue, and an n-gram report — without ever leaving the search-terms, keywords, or campaigns view. The "thing every senior PPC manager wishes Google would build, then builds for themselves in scripts and never quite finishes."
