The episode focuses on how mistakes, specifically in PPC settings, can lead to unexpected successes and valuable lessons. Kate shares an early career mistake involving setting the wrong target ROAS and how it surprisingly generated positive results. The conversation highlights the importance of trust, both within teams and with clients, as well as the necessity of allowing AI and automation algorithms time to learn and optimize. Practical advice includes avoiding major changes on Fridays, taking a moment to breathe before reacting to mistakes, and fostering an open environment where learning from errors is normalized. The episode also touches on broader industry practices and the benefits of honest discussion about common mistakes.Key Takeaways:Mistake: Kate accidentally set a target ROAS to 40% instead of 400%, leading to unexpected high spend.Surprising Outcome: The campaign actually performed well, uncovering new sales opportunities.Lesson 1: Never make big changes on a Friday—you risk weekend issues without oversight.Lesson 2: Always double-check even simple inputs to avoid costly errors.Lesson 3: Build trust with clients—owning up to mistakes and handling them well builds credibility.Lesson 4: Don't over-constrain campaigns—loosening ROAS targets can sometimes yield better performance.Lesson 5: In the AI/PMax era, avoid constant changes—let algorithms learn and optimize.Lesson 6: Give changes time to stabilize before evaluating results (at least 1–2 weeks).Final Advice: Mistakes are inevitable—how you respond and resolve them matters most.00:00 Introduction to PPC Live The Podcast01:14 Meet Kate Luke: Digital Transformation Expert04:01 Kate's Early Career Mistake06:57 Lessons Learned and Client Trust13:06 Advice for Handling Mistakes13:29 Handling Client Mistakes with Confidence13:44 Lessons Learned from Simple Mistakes14:25 The Importance of Double-Checking14:49 Saying No to Friday Changes16:38 Encouraging Open Conversations About Mistakes17:55 Creating a Safe Space for Juniors19:27 Navigating AI and Automation in PPC20:54 The Learning Period in AI Systems23:02 Final Thoughts and FarewellFind Kate on LinkedIn Book a coaching call with AnuPPC Live The Podcast (formerly PPCChat Roundup) features weekly conversations with paid search experts sharing their experiences, challenges, and triumphs in the ever-changing digital marketing landscape.The next PPC Live London event is on July 31stFollow us on LinkedInFollow us on TwitterJoin our WhatsApp GroupSubscribe to our Newsletter

With warmth and clarity, she shares how each stage of her career was shaped by curiosity, grit, and a willingness to embrace new challenges.Having started in C/C++ development at Alcatel-Lucent, Anu transitioned into technical program management after earning a general management MBA in the U.S. — a shift she undertook during the 2008 recession. With no prior semiconductor experience, she joined Lam Research as an intern and steadily built her domain knowledge, moving from internal IT to core product engineering over the next decade.Now based in India, Anu leads software initiatives on tools that power the chips behind every smart device — and actively advocates for greater awareness and participation in the semiconductor industry, especially for women in tech.

Anu Miettinen kiinnostui kasvatustieteistä aikoinaan YT-neuvotteluiden jälkeen, ja työt Nokian koulutusorganisaatiossa vaihtuivat uuden alan opiskeluun. Varhaiskasvatuksen opintojen vanavedessä kasvatuspsykologian maisteriopinnot tukivat omaa kasvua vanhempana, kun vanhemmuus nosti myös omaa traumataustaa pintaan. Anun selviytymiskeinona oli tutkia aiheeseen liittyvää teoriaa ja hankkia lisää tietoa omista reaktioista, sekä löytää uusia, hedelmällisempiä tapoja toimia. Anu on ollut pitkään mukana Suomen trauma ja dissosiaatio-yhdistyksessä eli Disso ry:ssä, ensin sihteerinä ja myöhemmin puheenjohtajana. Nyt hallitustyöskentely on jäänyt taakse. Disso ry keskittyy tukemaan vaikeasta traumatisoitumisesta toipuvia henkilöitä. Vertaistoiminta on yhdistyksen toiminnassa tärkeää ja keskeistä. Anun puheenjohtajuuskauden aikana kehitettiin Disso ry:ssä myös tietoisuusnauha traumatisoitumisesta kärsiville henkilöille. Emotionaalinen traumatisoituminen koskettaa monia, ja on siksikin tärkeää lisätä aiheeseen liittyvää tietoutta ja vähentää häpeää ja stigmatisointia. Oma vanhemmuus voi nostaa kenellä tahansa eletyt emotionaalisen trauman kokemukset mieleen. Silloin on tärkeää tiedostaa, että kaikki omat reaktiot eivät ole valintoja, vaan hermoston toimintaa. Kun tämän tunnistaa, on helpompi lähteä työstämään omia toimintatapojaan, katkaista ylisukupolvista traumatisoitumisen kierrettä! Halusta auttaa syntyi myös Anun yritys, Traumama. https://www.disso.fi/ Anu Miettisen omat sivut: https://www.traumama.com

In this bonus episode for Patreon subscribers, Emerald and Tom chat with director of the ACT Conservation Council and ANU researcher, Simon Copland, about his new book The Male Complaint - “Inspired by leaders such as Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson, the online Manosphere has exploded in recent years. Dedicated to anti-feminism, these communities have orchestrated online campaigns of misogynistic harassment, with some individuals going as far as committing violent terrorist attacks. Although the Manosphere has become a focus point of the media, researchers and governments alike, discussions tend to either over-sensationalize the community or offer simplistic explanations for their existence. This book uses a mixture of historical and economic analysis, alongside actual Manosphere content, to delve deeper. With The Male Complaint, Simon James Copland explains how the Manosphere has developed and why it appeals to so many men. He argues that the Manosphere is not an aberration, but is deeply embedded within mainstream, neoliberal, social structures. For a cohort of alienated men, the promise of community provides a space of understanding, connection and purpose. This insightful book dares to dig into the corners of incel communities and online spaces where misogyny thrives. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand, and do something about, this growing and worrying phenomenon.” ---------- The show can only exist because of our wonderful Patreon subscriber’s support.

In this candid episode of PPC Live The Podcast, host Anu sits down with Peter Guba, a Google Ads expert and founder of Profit Mill, to explore the raw reality of PPC failures and how they can become powerful learning experiences. Peter shares two memorable mistakes from his career - one hilarious, one costly - that shaped him into the marketer he is today.The main story centres on a perfect storm of PPC disasters: while managing a multi-million dollar enterprise event management client, Peter's Dynamic Search Ads began targeting Christmas trivia content from the client's blog during the holiday season. This led to massive irrelevant traffic, zero qualified leads for over a month, and ultimately the loss of the client - despite Peter successfully fixing the issue using Google's data exclusion functionality.Key takeaways:1. Own Your Mistakes ImmediatelyTransparency and accountability are crucial when things go wrongClients respect honesty more than excuses or blame-shiftingThe person who made the mistake is often best positioned to prevent it from happening again2. Smart Bidding Requires Smart MonitoringAutomation isn't "set it and forget it" - it needs consistent oversightGoogle's algorithm needs substantial data to learn, which can be expensive with broad, irrelevant keywordsThird-party monitoring tools can help catch issues before clients do3. The Perfect Storm Elements to Watch ForDynamic Search Ads + Smart Bidding + Broad SEO content = potential disasterSeasonality can amplify existing targeting issuesEnterprise clients with razor-thin margins have zero tolerance for extended poor performance4. Industry Reality ChecksPPC isn't a magic bullet for fundamental business problemsUnderstand your client's organic conversion rates before diving into paid searchSome industries are simply too competitive for paid search to be profitable5. Authenticity in Professional CommunicationReal failure stories are more valuable than polished success narrativesIn an AI-driven world, genuine vulnerability becomes increasingly rare and valuable"Showing up" consistently matters more than being perfectBonus Lesson: Always double-check your presentation slides for competitor logos before sending - it might accidentally help your pitch!0:00 Introduction to PPC Live The Podcast00:53 Meet Peter Guba: Google Ads Expert05:09 Funny F-Up Story: The Logo Mix-Up08:48 Serious F-Up Story: The Christmas Trivia Disaster18:39 The Importance of Smart Bidding19:18 Learning from Mistakes20:21 Client Communication and Accountability22:02 Challenges with PPC and Demand Generation26:50 The Role of Automation in PPC28:59 The Value of Discussing Failures32:59 Final Thoughts and ResourcesFind Peter on LinkedIn and Profit MillBook a coaching call with AnuPPC Live The Podcast (formerly PPCChat Roundup) features weekly conversations with paid search experts sharing their experiences, challenges, and triumphs in the ever-changing digital marketing landscape.The next PPC Live event is on June 26th in Leeds, UKThe next PPC Live London event is on July 31stFollow us on LinkedInFollow us on TwitterJoin our WhatsApp GroupSubscribe to our Newsletter

In this episode of PPC Live: The Podcast, host Anu chats with Greg Finn, co-founder of Cypress North, about the biggest mistakes he's witnessed in PPC and how they became learning opportunities. Greg shares two major f-ups: a Halloween costume company that accidentally set their monthly budget as a daily budget (spending $300K instead of $30K), and his own team's Microsoft Ads import error that sent one client's ads to a completely different advertiser's account.More importantly, Greg reveals how these disasters shaped his management philosophy and company culture, emphasizing transparency, open communication, and treating mistakes as growth opportunities rather than failures.On Mistake Management:Intent matters more than outcome - if someone is trying to do the right thing, the mistake is secondaryTransparency builds trust - own mistakes immediately, provide full documentation, and offer immediate refundsCreate processes after mistakes to prevent repetition, not punishmentOn Company Culture:Foster an environment where employees feel safe reporting mistakes immediatelyFocus on education and growth rather than perfectionTreat team members as teammates, not competitorsOn AI Usage:AI works best as an assistant, not a replacement for human creativityAvoid AI-generated content that looks obviously artificialMaintain authentic brand voice rather than relying on AI for everythingOn Conversions:"All conversions are not created equal" - optimize for sales-qualified leads, not just any conversionSync CRM systems with ad platforms to focus on actual business outcomesQuality over quantity when it comes to lead generationThe episode emphasizes that mistakes are inevitable in PPC, but how you handle them defines your success as both a marketer and a leader00:00 Introduction to PPC Live The Podcast00:50 Guest Introduction: Greg Finn of Cypress North03:01 Greg's Background and Expertise05:33 Discussing $300,000 worth and uploading to the wront account PPC Mistakes19:53 Owning Your Mistakes20:14 The Illusion of Perfection on Social Media21:42 Encouraging Open Communication in the Workplace25:44 The Importance of Team Mentality27:29 Mismanagement of Talent30:32 The Role of AI in Marketing35:03 Conclusion and Final Thoughts and LinkedInBook a coaching call with AnuPPC Live The Podcast (formerly PPCChat Roundup) features weekly conversations with paid search experts sharing their experiences, challenges, and triumphs in the ever-changing digital marketing landscape.The next PPC Live event is on June 26th in Leeds, UKThe next PPC Live London event is July 31stFollow us on LinkedInFollow us on TwitterJoin our WhatsApp GroupSubscribe to our Newsletter

ABSTRACT To act rightly is to act in accordance with moral demands. But what grounds moral demands? Much contemporary moral philosophy tends to take a non-relational approach to answering this question. According to non-relational moral theories, to act rightly is to act in a way that honours or promotes the (non-relational) moral properties of individuals, for example their well-being or their rights. According to relational moral theories, by contrast, at least some moral demands are grounded in a relation between individuals. To act rightly, is to act in accordance with what our moral relations to other individuals demand from us. Within relational theories, there is a further distinction to be drawn. Most contemporary relational theories presuppose that moral relations are determined by relational moral properties of the individuals involved. Call this account of relational moral demands individuals-first relationalism. Radical relationalism, by contrast, rejects the normative priority of moral properties of individuals – whether they are relational or non-relational properties. Instead, it has a relations-first structure. My aim in this paper is to argue that some moral demands are radically relational.

Dan Hrvatske vojske obilježen dvjema izjavama, predsjednika Milanovića o optužnicama za hrvatske generale iz Bosne i Hercegovine te izjavom ministra obrane Anušića koji je izjavio kako ne zna jesu li zrakoplovi pod ingerencijom Hrvatske vojske spremni za protupožarnu sezonu. Prije toga se sastala dva brda na Pantovčaku, predsjednik Vlade i predsjednik Republike Plenković i Milanović, i razgovarala na Sjednici vijeća za obranu. Nakon prosvjetara koji najavljuju nove štrajkaške akcije, štrajk i u Fortenovi nekadašnjem Agrokoru Ivice Todorića. Što se tiče pokala u Hrvatskoj, sve počinje i završava u Rijeci.

In this episode of PPC Live The Podcast, host Anu interviews Kat Sale, co-founder of House of Performance, about a catastrophic client experience that serves as a cautionary tale for agency professionals. Kat shares how a gifting company client spent £40,000 in just three days with zero sales, despite her team's explicit warnings against their aggressive launch strategy. The situation escalated when the client refused to pay £12,500 in consultancy fees, forcing Kat to write off the loss and end the relationship.Key takeaway discussed: Key Takeaways"Eat the dog food" - Always test and understand your client's products before marketing themRed flags to avoid: Clients who speak poorly about their own team, have churned through multiple agencies quickly, or consistently ignore expert adviceDon't launch on Fridays unless you'll monitor campaigns over the weekendStart conservative: Begin with exact match keywords and modest budgets, then scale based on performanceCut losses quickly - Don't waste time chasing bad debts or difficult clients; focus energy on good relationshipsDocument everything - Keep clear records of advice given when clients ignore recommendationsDon't take failures personally - Sometimes clients aren't ready to listen, and that's not your faultBe transparent with mistakes - Clients appreciate honesty; cover-ups destroy trustUse AI as a tool, not a crutch - Maintain strategic thinking and creativity rather than relying completely on AICreate psychological safety - Leaders should share their own failures to normalise learning from mistakesKnow when to walk away - Some clients aren't worth the stress and damage to your businessMaintain perspective - "We're not heart surgeons, it's just advertising" - don't let work stress destroy your mental health00:00 Introduction01:31 Kat Sale's Background02:48 The Concept of 'Eating the Dog Food'04:43 Major Business Failure and Learnings22:43 Discussion on AI in Digital Marketing28:03 Conclusion and Where to Find Kat SaleFollow Kat on LinkedInBook a coaching call with AnuPPC Live The Podcast (formerly PPCChat Roundup) features weekly conversations with paid search experts sharing their experiences, challenges, and triumphs in the ever-changing digital marketing landscape.The next PPC Live event is on June 26th in Leeds, UKFollow us on LinkedInFollow us on TwitterJoin our WhatsApp GroupSubscribe to our Newsletter
Suoraa puhetta johtaa Maria Pettersson. Keskustelijoina ovat Petja Kopperoinen, Anu Koivunen ja Kaarina Hazard. Petja Kopperoisen aiheena on yliopistojen valintakoeuudistus. Tämän kevään osalta yliopistojen pääsykoerumba on alkanut ja samalla valintakoeuudistus on astunut voimaan. Valintakoeuudistuksen myötä järjestetään yhteensä vain yhdeksät pääsykokeet ja samalla pääsykokeella voi hakea usealle eri alalle. Tähän mennessä on järjestetty vasta kahdet kokeet ja silti on jo ollut useampia otsikoita, kuinka nuorten haaveet ovat kaatuneet, kun juna on myöhästynyt tai henkkarit unohtuneet kotiin. Petjaa kiinnostaa pöytäläisten näkemys valintakoeuudistuksesta. Onko valintakoeuudistus sittenkään hyvä, jos yhden kokeen epäonnistuminen kaataa useita hakukohteita ja katkaisee nuoren opiskelumahdollisuudet kerrasta? Onko uudistus tehty vain leikkaukset edellä, eikä hakijoiden mielenterveyttä ajatellen? Anu Koivunen kertoo kasvaneensa aikana, jota leimasi koulutusoptimismi – ajatus siitä, että koulutus on yhteishyvää, jolle kansalaisuus rakentuu ja jossa pyrkimyksenä on kasvava tasa-arvoisuus. Tutkimukset koulutuksesta ovat jo pitkään kertoneet aivan muuta. Useissa medioissa on viime aikoina haastateltu juuri väitellyttä Penni Pietilää, joka on tutkinut ammattikoulutusta. Anu siteeraa Helsingin Sanomien Tuomas Kasevan artikkelia "Mitä ihmettä amikselle tehtiin?" Tuomas Kaseva kirjoittaa: "Penni Pietilän väitöskirjan väite on, että ammattikoulutus pitää tiukasti huolen, että duunarit myös pysyvät duunareina. Tutkijan mukaan eri suunnista välittyy tiukka viesti, että työläistä ei saa sivistää. Hänestä ammattikoulutuksessa suhtaudutaan sivistykseen jopa vihamielisesti." Anun mielestä oheinen kirjoitus kertoo karmaisevaa kieltä ammatillisen koulutuksen tilasta. Tunnistatteko te yhteiskunnassa laajemmin tällaista "duunari pysyköön lestissään" tai "jokainen pysyköön yhteiskuntaluokassaan" kehitystä? Kaarina Hazardin aihe saa pontimensa OECD:n juuri julkaistusta maaraportista. Eräs kohta maaraportissa kertoo, että Suomen pitäisi leikata yritystukia. Kaarina odotti, että raportin julkaisun jälkeen mediassa lähtisi vilkas keskustelu siitä, minkälaista yritystoimintaa Suomessa halutaan tukea. Mistä leikkaamme? Mikä on Suomen suunta? Mikä on yhteinen visio, millä Suomi selviää? Kaarina kysyykin ihmeissään, miksi tämä mahtavan mehukas aihe ei ottanut tulta mediassa.

In this episode of PPC Live, host Anu interviews Chris Nightingale, founder of Can-Do Digital Marketing, about a significant mistake early in his PPC career and how he turned it around.

Darren welcomes Dr John Kunkel for the first time to the podcast. John is Senior Economics Adviser at the United States Studies Centre. He has worked as an economist, speech writer, policy analyst, adviser to government and industry executive. John is most well-known for being Chief of Staff to Prime Minister Scott Morrison from August 2018 to May 2022. From 2004 to 2007, he was also speech writer to Prime Minister John Howard. John has the ideal background to discuss the current geopolitical and geoeconomic moment Australia faces. He holds a PhD in economics from ANU and understands why markets and openness have been essential to Australia's success. But as a PM's Chief of Staff, including during the COVID outbreak, John is well aware of the complexity of Australia's national interests, the difficult of making policy, and the challenges posed by China and, lately, Donald Trump's America. The conversation starts with President Trump and the United States, moves to China, and finishes at home on how Australia needs new thinking, and new policy processes, to navigate this moment in history. Australia in the World is written, hosted, and produced by Darren Lim, with research and editing this episode Corbin Duncan and theme music composed by Rory Stenning.

What does it mean to innovate with principle in a world of complexity, volatility, and accelerating change? This week, I spoke with Anu Bradford, Professor of Law, Director of European Legal Studies Center, Columbia Law School. As part of our Nordic Visionaries series, Anu brings a timely and thought-provoking perspective on the intersection of innovation, regulation, and sustainability. Known globally for her work on EU law and digital regulation, and as the author of The Brussels Effect and Digital Empires, Anu offers an insider's view on how the Nordics and Europe are navigating the fast-evolving tech landscape. Together, they explore the mounting pressure on companies to adapt to shifting political and economic forces while staying true to their foundational values. From EU regulation and AI governance to geopolitical realignment and sustainability commitments, the conversation tackles the opportunities and tradeoffs innovators must grapple with today. Anu also highlights the need for disruptive innovation that improves lives, not just profits, and calls attention to the power of Nordic leadership to set global examples through clear values, pragmatism, and social trust. Whether you are a tech founder, policymaker, or corporate leader, this episode challenges you to consider what you build and why you make it. So, how do we define meaningful innovation at this moment? And what kind of future are we shaping when we choose to balance progress with principle? Join the conversation and share your thoughts.

What if the way we work could finally match the way we want to work? At Atlassian's Team '25, that vision is no longer a distant ideal. In this special episode recorded live from the event, I sit down with Anu Bharadwaj, President of Atlassian, for an in-depth conversation about the future of collaboration and the company's newly formalized System of Work. Anu offers a behind-the-scenes look at how Atlassian is rethinking productivity through a new lens. We discuss how the System of Work unifies teams, tools, and data to drive meaningful outcomes instead of isolated wins. Anu explains how this framework was designed to move beyond conventional work management tools, helping teams focus not just on doing more, but on achieving more together. One of the standout innovations is the Teamwork Graph. Built to provide context across tools and departments, it connects strategy to execution with clarity. We explore how this visibility allows leaders to uncover bottlenecks, align resources, and connect the dots between business goals and day-to-day work. It's about making the invisible work visible and measurable. We also dive into Rovo, Atlassian's new AI teammate designed to elevate rather than replace human contribution. Anu shares how AI tools are being developed to reduce cognitive load, eliminate friction, and give people more time to focus on what truly matters. By embedding intelligence directly into the workflow, Atlassian is helping organizations reduce the time lost searching for answers and navigating silos. For leaders looking to modernize their operations, Anu outlines where to start and what to watch out for. Whether you are overseeing enterprise transformation or leading a fast-moving team, this conversation provides a practical view into how the Atlassian platform is helping organizations unlock better outcomes. What resonated most for me was the shift from chasing productivity to enabling performance. Atlassian is not just enhancing collaboration—it's helping reshape how teams think, operate, and scale. If you're curious about the System of Work, the Teamwork Collection, or what was unveiled at Team '25, this episode is for you. It's a glimpse into the future of work that prioritizes people, aligns efforts, and enables continuous learning. Let me know what you think. How are you planning to turn insights into action within your team?
Did you know your gut health plays a huge role in bone health? In this episode, I sit down with Anu Simh, a board-certified functional health coach and founder of 9 Arms of Wellness, to dive into the fascinating connection between the microbiome and our bones. Anu believes that gut health is the foundation of lasting wellness. Her upcoming book, Flourish from Within, explores the gut's role in metabolism, hormones, and even bone health, showing that when we feed the microbiome, we support the whole body. Anu has guided hundreds of women through this transformation and is now training other coaches in her methodology. Anu discusses how a healthy gut microbiome can help absorb nutrients more effectively, support bone density, and even reduce the risk of osteoporosis. She also shares simple yet powerful tips for improving gut health, like incorporating fiber-rich foods and prebiotics into your diet.
