Hierarchy Builder for fluid power

Site category structure → campaign structure, applied to fluid power & hydraulics.

Hydraulic distributor accounts evolve over time: what started as three campaigns (OEM, MRO, Aftermarket) has grown into 30+ campaigns with overlapping structures and silent coverage gaps. Hierarchy Builder reads your site's category taxonomy and proposes a campaign and ad group structure that mirrors it — so instead of guessing, you have a data-driven proposal with explicit reasoning. For a distributor, this usually means restructuring around product categories ('Pumps', 'Cylinders', 'Manifolds', 'Valves'), buyer intent ('OEM Design', 'MRO Emergency', 'Aftermarket'), and geography. The naming convention enforcement is the detail that saves hours: when your account spec says campaigns should be named '[Buyer]-[Category]-[Geo]', Hierarchy Builder enforces that naming on the proposal, and new team members cannot deviate. Conflict and duplication detection catches the overlaps: 'PN-HPU-150 hydraulic pump' is probably in both 'Pumps' and 'Generic Power Units' ad groups, but Hierarchy Builder flags it so you clean it up before launch. Recommendation: run Hierarchy Builder when your account has grown to 25+ campaigns (usually year two of operation). Use the proposal as a roadmap, not a mandate — some manual customization is always needed. Implement the proposal in a test campaign first, measure performance for 30 days, then roll the structure to the full account. Pair Hierarchy Builder with Audit to score health under the new structure.

About Hierarchy Builder

Reads your site's category taxonomy and proposes a campaign and ad group structure that mirrors it. Built for the moment your account has been running for two years and the structure no longer reflects how the business actually sells.

About fluid power

Fluid power buyers split into two distinct tracks: OEM design engineers selecting components for new equipment, and MRO maintenance buyers replacing failed parts. Both speak in part numbers, pressure ratings, and ISO standards — but they convert on entirely different campaigns.
