Hi completely new to PE. Is carry always offered as a percentage or as a fixed $ DAW? Is $ DAW just to help illustrate what your % is worth? Or could carry offers be fixed to a specific $ in perpetuity

Dear Fishbowl PPCers I need your help!

A client is insisting we used Adobe bod manager for their campaigns, and neither me nor my team have experience with it.

We're also not on a timeline where we can really get up to speed on it ahead of a couple deadlines.

I've also argued for budget for external consulting hours and that's been disapproved.

I'm on my own. Or am I?

Hoping some kind soul with experience managing Google Ads through Adobe can help me out.

I feel left out in my firm. How do I make 'friends' with my colleagues? I've been here for a year.
