Stop waiting for a bigger waitlist before you launch

Home services RSAs feel unfinished because you write assets without controlling every combination. Cover service, availability, credentials, and offer, pin must-appear lines to Headline 1 or Description 1, and separate bidding conversions from observation metrics.
Smart Bidding CPC spikes after a conversion usually mean thin campaign-level conversion data, not a fleecing scam. Pre-train on Manual CPC, use Portfolio bidding with Max CPC, and switch only after the data floor.
Limited by budget pitches a big spend increase at a soft ROAS while your Target ROAS holds. Use Impression Share Lost (Budget), softscale, and clean inventory before you trust the suggestion panel.
You exclude brand from Performance Max and ROAS tanks. That drop usually exposes padded blended numbers, not a random algo failure. Stabilize budget, read placements, and judge MER.
