Precision: PPC enables you to be very precise in putting a targeted offer in front of a specific segment of the market. By identifying specific key words, creating unique offers, and writing tailored ads, you have a tremendous amount of control over who sees your ad, what offer they see, and where they land on your website.
Targeting: Another aspect of precision is the ability to target your market geographically, demographically, and by time of day and day of the week. When combined with keyword specificity, unique offers and well written ads, you can focus very tightly on the target market you are trying to reach. This ensures that the majority of people viewing your ads are qualified prospects.
Speed and Simplicity: This can be looked at two ways. First, while doing PPC right can be somewhat complex and time consuming, planning and executing a campaign can be accomplished in hours.

Financial Control: PPC provides the advertiser with complete control over how much money is being spent. A daily budget can be allocated, then changed depending on results of the campaign, and to take advantage of changing business conditions as they occur.
Length and Scope of Campaign: A PPC campaign can run for any length of time and can be very narrowly or broadly targeted. This enables the advertiser to use a campaign to accomplish different things, from delivering targeted offers to a narrow market segment for a short period of time, to more broad based branding and awareness.
