Follow these steps and you’ll be on your way to success:

1. Download the Google app in Shopify
2. Assuming you already have a Google Ads account, connect it under Settings.

4. In the “Page” menu on the left, choose Campaigns.
5. Use the plus button  to select New campaign.

8. Select your Merchant Center account and country where products are sold.
9. Enter a campaign name.
