1. Campaigns: where you analyze, optimize, and manage your campaigns
2. Goals: where you define, monitor, and update your conversion goals
3. Tools: where you can find tools for: 
   1. Planning
   2. Bidding and budgets
   3. Troubleshooting
   4. And more
4. Billing: where you monitor your spend and payments
5. Admin: where you manage your team, security, and account settings
