Kim Clinkunbroomer, Google AdWords Professional

Kim is the “Real Deal.” If you’ve ever sought help in the Google AdWords Forum—odds are—you’ve been helped by Kim.

Her remarkable sense of service has earned her official recognition by Google as an “AdWords Forum Top Contributor.” To put this in perspective—of the tens of millions of AdWords users in the world—a total of eight are designated as “Top Contributors.”

  • To put this even more into focus: Kim leads the list.

In fact, this is how I realized what an incredible source of helpful knowledge she is. Perhaps like you, from time-to-time, I dive into the deep-end of the AdWords pool…and sometimes have to look around for help. Well, after realizing that I’d read half-a-dozen of Kim’s posts (always with the exact answer I sought), I decided to reach out to her.

  • Unlike the self-professed “AdWords experts,” I found Kim’s expertise to be authentic & substantive. Also, she “drinks her own champagne.” Unlike the guru’s, Kim doesn’t have an eBook, a seminar, a webinar, or an over-priced & under-valued coaching program…she does have years-and-years of real experience helping real businesses generate real traffic to their real sites and really sell things…for real!

Here’s your opportunity to get practical, tangible advice from a legitimate “SEM” (Search-Engine Marketing) expert. Submit your questions now! (Click here to submit your questions for Kim.)

  1. Why “Web-based Marketing” (in all forms) is an important part of every consultants marketing mix.
  2. What is (and isn’t!) “SEM” (Search-Engine Marketing).
  3. What is (and isn’t) “PPC” (Pay-Per-Click) Advertising, and why it is useful for consultants.
  4. If you haven’t used SEM or PPC yet, you’ll learn specific steps to get started.
  5. If you’re comfortable with PPC, you’ll learn how to accomplish more with less cost.
  6. You’ll learn specific things consultants should do with SEM/PPC…and specific things they should not do.
