You want to completely understand how paid search is converting. This should
include the conversions or purchases that were assisted by your paid search
efforts.
◉View conversions from paid search based on first touch vs. last touch
◉View conversions from other channels that were “assisted” by your
paid search efforts
◉Get full credit for all conversions/leads generated by your paid search
efforts, regardless of where in the funnel your visitors are

5. Targeted Remarketing Lists
The more targeted your remarketing efforts the more likely you are to see
conversions. Building custom lists using conversion data can be a highly effective
tactic to boost conversions.
◉Highlight specials and promotions for visitors who have already
converted at top of funnel to boost lower funnel conversions
◉Create targeted campaigns to generate referrals from recent users
that converted on your site
