To create a demand gen campaign in Google Ads with Claude or ChatGPT, connect your Google Ads account to PaidSync.ai and ask the assistant to create a Demand Gen campaign, which serves ads on YouTube, the Discover feed and Gmail. The campaign is created paused. Location is set on the ad group, not the campaign, and audiences attach at the ad group.

Which Tools Do the Work

Demand Gen, formerly Discovery, builds demand on Google's feeds. It takes four steps, each with its own tool:

create_demand_gen_campaign, create_demand_gen_ad_group, add_demand_gen_audience and create_demand_gen_ad change it.

How the Workflow Is Built

ToolWhat it does
create_demand_gen_campaignCreates the paused campaign
create_demand_gen_ad_groupAdds the ad group with its locations
add_demand_gen_audienceAttaches the audience
create_demand_gen_adAdds the ad

Order matters. Create the image and logo assets before the ad, set locations on the ad group, and attach the audience after it exists. A video asset opens up YouTube inventory, so use one when you have it.

How to Create a Demand Gen Campaign in Google Ads With Claude in 5 Steps

These steps use Claude to create a demand gen campaign. PaidSync.ai also works in ChatGPT, and the prompts are the same.

1

Connect Google Ads to PaidSync.ai

Create a free account at paidsync.ai and approve Google Ads on Google's own sign-in screen. You do not need a developer token or a Google Cloud project, only a login with access to the account where you will create a demand gen campaign.

2

Add PaidSync.ai to Claude

Install PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my Google Ads accounts" and select the account to create a demand gen campaign in.

3

Create the campaign

Give a name, a daily budget and a bidding strategy. Ask the assistant to run create_demand_gen_campaign.

4

Create the ad group and audience

Create the ad group with its target locations, then attach an audience to it.

5

Create the ad

Prepare the assets, then create the Demand Gen ad. Review everything, then enable the campaign.

How to Check the Result

Read the campaign and ad group details and check locations, audience and the ad. Enable the campaign only when all four pieces are in place.

Use these two prompts to create a demand gen campaign, in this order.

"Create a Demand Gen campaign called Launch Awareness with a daily budget of 40 and maximize conversions bidding."
Comes back as a preview before it is applied.
"Create an ad group called Spain Lookalikes in the Launch Awareness campaign targeting Spain."
Comes back as a preview before it is applied.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a demand gen campaign in Google Ads?

In Google Ads, create a Demand Gen campaign, then set the ad group, audience and ads. With PaidSync.ai, ask Claude or ChatGPT to build each piece, and each one previews first.

Where do I set location for Demand Gen?

On the ad group. Google rejects campaign-level location for Demand Gen, so the ad group tool takes the target locations.

Yes. PaidSync.ai connects Google Ads to ChatGPT and to Claude, and the same tools run in both, so you can ask it to create a demand gen campaign the same way you would in Claude.

What do I need before I create a demand gen campaign?

A connected Google Ads account, a name, a budget, a bidding strategy, target locations, an audience and the ad assets.

How much does it cost?

PaidSync.ai is free for 15 tasks a month with no card, enough to create a demand gen campaign and see the result. Pro starts at $99 a month. See pricing.
