Back in October 2023, MTN Nigeria announced that it was introducing an innovative product specifically targeted at businesses in the country: a Google Ads automation solution, which would make it easier for SMEs and startups to target new markets online. The product is the result of a partnership between MTN Nigeria and Adbot, an ad-tech company.

Speaking at the time of the solution’s unveiling, representatives of both organizations said that it would be available to all SMEs on the MTN Network. They explained that the Thryve Google Ads Bundle would enable small businesses to access Google Ads services, receive a fair amount of data, and substantially increase ad views and conversions for their websites on Google.

How the MTN Thryve Google Ads Service Works

This solution is powered by Adbot’s online advertisement automation technology. Businesses looking to expand their online visibility can provide inputs such as their ad’s target location, keywords, and ad copy. Doing these is fairly straightforward. Then Adbot’s system maximizes these inputs, runs the ad campaign, and continuously optimizes the ad by leveraging Machine Learning. The promise is that this solution simplifies ad campaign setup, increases ad reach and click-through rates, and ultimately drives down customer acquisition costs.
