Before you touch bids on a local Ads takeover — what's on your hard-stop list?
Tiny agency / freelance ops note (local lead-gen accounts):
We've had week-1 chaos when "access" meant Ads login only — and the definition of a lead still lived in someone's head (or nowhere).
Working hard stops before bid or strategy changes: billing admin, written definition of what counts as a lead (call vs form vs both), location settings that match the service area, and a named owner for fixing tracking when it breaks.
If you run takeovers: what's on YOUR non-negotiable list before you change anything that spends money — and what do you still let slide on day one (knowing it might bite week 2)?

Love this angle, honestly. What made you look into it in the first place?
Good point. Did you test that with users before committing to it?
Nice progress. What is the next thing you are focusing on?
Thanks — next focus is making the hard-stop list boring and repeatable: one page you can send before kickoff so “access” isn’t just Ads login.
Still stress-testing which items actually save week 1 vs which ones look important and get ignored. Open to what’s non-negotiable on your takeovers.
