CUSTOM COMBINATIONS
1
• Create all lists in Google Analytics and then use AdWords to build the Custom Combinations
2
• Custom Combination lists are used if you want to target people that have visited ‘X’ but not ‘Y’
3
• Create a custom audience by combining remarketing lists in an AND, OR or NOT relationship
Membership durations remain intact
for all remarketing lists that are
part of the combination

DID YOU KNOW?
“You need at least 1,000 people in your search
network remarketing lists (RLSAs) to use them. This is ten times more than display
remarketing lists.”Source: AdWords
GETTING THERIGHT STRATEGY
Virgin Active could remarket to existing members
visiting the Login page to promote new services
Wagamama could drive footfall into a
physical store with user location segmentation
Odeon could segment by device & remarket
to mobile users to promote their app
Subway could target by Affinity Categories
for ‘health’ if they launch a new healthy sub
Debenhams could use RLSAs to bid on [Dior]
which might otherwise be too generic
