Google Ads has launched the a new feature for Smart Bidding that gives you more control over seasonality adjustments. To provide more control in these rare situations, you can now apply seasonality adjustments for Search and Display campaigns, Google said.

Google gave this example, "Let’s say you’re planning a flash sale for the weekend. Historically, you’ve seen a 50% increase in conversion rates when you’ve run a similar sale.
