Rafal brings a wealth of experience in Meta Ads, Google Ads, SEO, and team-led digital strategies that have generated millions in client revenue. Together, they explore how Rafal has achieved results like turning $1,600 in ad spend into $10,000 in revenue within just three months, and how his clients have scaled from $50K to $100K revenue while maintaining the same ad budgets. The conversation dives into why most businesses are leaving money on the table by relying too heavily on AI-driven campaigns like Google Performance Max or Meta’s automated systems, and what can be done instead to take back control. This conversation delves into the key aspects of scaling online businesses through performance marketing, including: ✔️ Why “set and forget” ad strategies fail in today’s market✔️ How Rafal retargets audiences efficiently across platforms with minimal spend✔️ What types of e-commerce and B2B businesses are seeing the biggest gains✔️ How SEO and link building enhance paid ad results for sustainable growth✔️ What traditional agencies get wrong—and how to avoid wasting budget Whether running an e-commerce store, SaaS platform, or media brand, this episode offers highly actionable insights for anyone ready to maximize their ROI and take a smarter approach to digital marketing.

Last year, she explains, had the “Caitlin Clark effect” that brought viewers and advertisers alike to these games, but she thinks it's too early to tell if the effect has continued this year.

In Part 2 Ralph Burns and John Moran continue their breakdown of why ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) is an outdated and misleading metric for scaling businesses. They introduce a better, more reliable metric that high-growth brands use to measure success—one that actually aligns with business revenue and profit, rather than vanity numbers. Expect insights on how to use Meta for prospecting and Google for conversions, why multi-channel attribution is essential in today's digital landscape, and how top media buyers are shifting away from ROAS in favor of more effective tracking strategies. If you're still optimizing for ROAS, you're probably leaving money on the table.

We are here at eTail Palm Springs and seeing and hearing the latest and greatest in e-commerce and retail. This year, many advertisers - especially retailers -- are being asked to do more with less. At the same time they have smaller budgets, they also must contend with an astonishing amount of waste: nearly 2/3 of every ad dollar spent actually goes toward the end inventory, and up to 15% of total spend goes to fraud or made-for-advertising content. Today we're going to talk about what to do about all of those wasted ad dollars. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Matt Wasserlauf, CEO at Blockboard.

In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is joined by Aviv Canaani, CRO at Datarails, who shares how he helped move the company from 90% outbound to 90% inbound. "One of our best performing ads is something actually I saw, usually it comes from the team, but I saw this TikTok ad for I think it was a B2C company. Something like, someone asked a lady a question and whatever they ask she says 'yup'. 'Oh, does it do this?' 'Yup'. 'Does it do this?' 'Yup'. So I sent it to the team. I'm like, let's try to do something like that for Datarails. It's been our one of our best performing ads on TikTok. So I think it's really understanding, you know, the channel you're focused on and you have to create the fun, engaging videos that align with what works in the channel, but with our own spin of marketing, our own software." Aviv shares: • Diversification and reducing dependency on any single ad channel • TikTok success in B2B; from user-generated content to understanding the algorithm • Reducing attribution confusion: the simple switch the DataRails team made to categorise and analyse data • How they've scaled their marketing budget in direct proportion to AE hiring: their data-driven system that predicts meeting generation based on marketing spend • His transition from VP Marketing to CRO and his biggest learning managing sales teams • Combat rising ad costs: why creating platform-specific content rather than using a one-size-fits-all strategy is key and more!
