- Eastern Michigan University's College of Business and Google, present case studies of how they managed $10,000 monthly AdWords advertising grants for non-profits. As a group, these students produced just under 3.8 million ad impressions and over 85,000 clicks for their non-profits resulting in a click through rate of over 2.2%. Non-profits reported significantly improved sales in their online stores, attendance at their events, and traffic to key areas of their web sites. The case studies are ongoing and updated periodically.">EMU Google Adwords Partnership
