Well, no one can deny the fact that<a href=\"http:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/sales\/how-to-use-emotions-to-sell\" rel=\"nofollow\"> emotions are one of the most powerful forms of communication<\/a>. This is the reason why emojis have now found a place in almost all business marketing communications. And just when it seemed like they had made it to Google PLAs (Product Listing Ads), Google took a U-turn on the issue by removing them altogether. This was when a Denmark-based advertiser somehow managed to get an emoji to be a part of his Google shopping campaign ads.<\/p>\n<p>And if, as a part of Google&#8217;s subscribed base of advertisers, you&#8217;re also itching to do the same then you won&#8217;t be able to do so. Google recently revamped its <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/merchants\/answer\/160556?hl=en\" rel=\"nofollow\">merchant guidelines<\/a> to completely scrap the existence of emojis from its shopping campaign ads.<\/p>\n<p>The new Merchant&#8217;s Policy guidelines now makes it hard for advertisers to make use of repeated and unnecessary punctuations, capitalization, or symbols (such as emoticons, etc.) by listing them under the Don&#8217;t Use category.<\/p>\n<p>On a serious note, businesses need to take Google&#8217;s words seriously on the matter as they want to make PLAs an emoji-free zone for advertising communications.<\/p>\n<p>For more info, write to us at <a href=\"mailto:sales@agencyplatform.com\">sales@agencyplatform.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emotions speak louder than words!!
