Should I pause campaigns that aren't converting?

Not immediately. First, identify where the problem exists. Questions to ask include: - Is the campaign receiving enough impressions? - Is CTR acceptable? - Are people clicking but not converting? - Is the landing page working correctly? - Has enough data been collected? Sometimes the campaign isn't the problem-the offer, website, or follow-up process is. Only pause campaigns after collecting sufficient data to make an informed decision.
