Adbot launches campaign to offer 1000 Lionesses of Africa members 1000 FREE Google Ads campaigns

January 28, 2022 Melanie Hawken

Lioness Radio / The Business of Funding Podcast Ep.3

There are 3.5 million searches a day on Google. If your business is not advertising on Google you don't exist to online customers. That is why Lionesses of Africa is collaborating with Adbot to change this. Adbot is giving away 1000 FREE Google ads campaigns to 1000 women business owners, each to the value of R1000. The campaign runs until 31 January 2022.

Adbot ceo Michelle Geere says, “Adbot aims to help every SME owner in Africa advertise online successfully. We believe this effort will support SME owners by giving them access to new markets which in turn will grow their business. We know the barrier to entry usually is budget and knowledge of how to manage these complex platforms. That's why we at Adbot would like to offer 1000 Lionesses of Africa members 1000 FREE Google Ads campaigns, to the value of R1000.

It is very simple. All you have to do is

  1. Click here https://promo.adbot.co.za/loa/

  2. Add your email and cellphone number

  3. Verify that your email is correct by clicking on the email sent by Adbot

  4. Fill in some detail about your business and add keywords.

  5. And you are live!

  6. If you are stuck please WhatsApp the Adbot team on +27 78 573 7341

Deadline to apply is 31 January 2022.

This offer is perfectly suited to companies in the seeding phase of their business journey where they are still testing platforms and markets. This campaign is the most effective for entrepreneurs who have done their own Google Ads or paid someone to do it before. For the simple reason that they are able to measure past performance with the free campaign.

Adbot was introduced to Lionesses of Africa by its impact partner, Enygma Ventures, the private investment fund focused on investing in women-led businesses in Southern and East Africa, co-founded by Sarah and Jacob Dusek. Enygma Ventures partners with Lionesses of Africa to produce The Business of Funding Podcast. To listen to Episode 3 and hear from Sarah and Adbot ceo, Michelle Geere, click here:

About Adbot

Every time someone searches for a product or service using Google, there is an opportunity for them to see what your business has to offer. If you’re not on Google search, that’s a whole lot of missed customers! The problem is trying to do your own Google search advertising is complicated and time consuming. That’s where we come in at Adbot!

You don’t need to learn how to do it yourself or bribe a friend to do it for you. At Adbot, we do all your Google search advertising for you. From opening your Google Ads account to managing your campaigns monthly – we do it all! We use machine learning to optimise your keywords, ad copy and bidding 24/7. That means that businesses who have signed up with us are ranking 100% better than their competitors who haven’t. Oh, and let’s not forget – there are no setup or monthly fees. You only pay when someone clicks on your ad.

Sarah Dusek, Co-founder, Enygma Ventures

“Women get so little funding to help them scale. And it doesn't need to be this hard. It's hard right now because there are very few women investors, which made me realize, more women entrepreneurs need to become women investors. And so that's how I got here. We are actively searching for great women entrepreneurs to invest in. My whole thesis is that if we can empower women, we can literally change the world.”
