NEW: “Google MDS” - Manager Defined Spend
1st November 2007

This is so new that there is no documentation on this anywhere I can find. My Google team is hot for me to get on this, and I think it’s a great product enhancement. A MDS is essentially a MCC (My Client Center). Although, the big difference is that the advertiser has the ability to create, modify & apply budgets without the need for a separate Service Agreement for each account. One Service Agreement, and then your Google rep just needs to create the child account shells. It will look the same as your existing MCC, although there will be a button to the right that says, “Modify Budget”: The Manager Defined Spend (MDS) is a new program by Google designed to allow you to create, fund, and modify your managed accounts with greater flexibility and efficiency. KEY POINTS: The MDS (Manager Defined Spend) is empowering the SEM’s to adjust their own accounts & budgets/flight dates without the need for an additional service agreement. Google rep still needs to create a child account shell. Transitioning to a MDS from a MCC will not affect quality score, because it’s the same account. 1. Your login/password for your MCC remains the same No related posts. |

I’m not sure what the new part is here? The ability to modify budgets per client at the MCC/MDS level has been around for a long time now. Also, if you didn’t have it on your main control panel, you can always go into individual accounts and modify it. Why is moving it up 2 clicks so “hot”??
Also, from a usability point of view, it makes more sense to always adjust budgets keeping the campaign metrics in perspective, which isn’t as well done from the MCC interface, especially considering the useless nature of most of the columns on there!

Hi Farhad,
Modifying daily budgets is not what we’re talking about here. The excitement is that the MDS allows large agencies or SEM’s to create new accounts without the need for additional Service agreements.
