Does Google PPC still work for home service businesses—or is it just an expensive mistake?In this Clicks to Calls episode of Owned and Operated, John Wilson sits down with Service Scalers CEO Sam Preston to break down the truth about Google Ads (PPC) for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical companies. Some operators swear PPC is dead. Others are spending six figures a month and winning.

From budget minimums and landing pages to tracking revenue (not just calls), this episode lays out a clear framework for deciding if PPC belongs in your business—and how to avoid burning cash if you try it.If you've ever said “Google Ads don't work for us,” this episode will challenge that assumption.What you'll learn in this episode:Why PPC still works—and why most operators think it doesn'tThe real difference between LSA and PPC (and why PPC breaks first)Budget thresholds you actually need to make PPC viableWhy landing pages matter more than ad copyShout Out to FieldPulse

In this episode of Digital Marketing from the Coalface, Dave and Julie explore the counter-intuitive reality of B2B growth: why receiving fewer clicks often signals a healthier strategy than chasing high-volume traffic.   They discuss the "Mark Kermode Effect"—a bizarre algorithmic failure where YouTube's AI confused Dave with the famous film critic based on their glasses and grey hair, driving thousands of irrelevant views that immediately bounced.   For engineering and tech leaders focused on efficiency, Julie and Dave also dive into practical applications of generative AI in operational workflows. Dave shares his experience using Claude Code to rapidly prototype and update internal resource management software, allowing non-developers to fix issues and run test plans via GitHub.   Finally, they look at how NotebookLM is transforming how technical data is consumed, turning dense structural engineering reports on infrastructure into engaging audio summaries.    

Episode #368 – Stop Overwriting Your Emails (Write Shorter Emails That Get More Clicks) In email marketing, most ecommerce founders don't actually have a copywriting problem - they have an overwriting habit. Your email turns into a mini essay because you're trying to explain, prove, and reassure all at once. But in email marketing, simple, straightforward copy isn't boring — it's persuasive. Clear emails create momentum, get more clicks, and make buying feel easier. In this episode, I'm breaking down why overwriting happens, the mindset shift that makes clarity feel safe, and a repeatable email copy framework you can use to write shorter, higher-converting marketing emails. In this episode, you'll learn: Why ecommerce founders overwrite emails (and why it feels "responsible" in the moment) The 3 fears that lead to long, dense email marketing copy What "simple copy" actually means in email marketing (one point, one promise, one action) A quick clarity check to spot overwriting fast What not to do when you try to simplify (simple ≠ vague, simple ≠ corporate) The Straightforward Email Copy Framework: Hook → Value → Shop Path How to edit using the "So what?" filter so every line earns its place The mindset shift: email's job is to drive the click, not be the full sales page Dive deeper with the accompanying blog post: https://joyjoya.com/blogs/podcast/strong-email-copy-how-to-write-ecommerce-emails-that-sell Work with Joy Joya: https://joyjoya.com

This episode is really about one thing: deciding when “no sales yet” actually means something. Because in real accounts, non-converting spend isn't some small inefficiency. It's often 30 percent of spend. Sometimes it's 50. I've seen it hit 80 percent. Ten thousand dollars in ad spend, eight thousand going to search terms that never convert.What changes the way you look at this is separating converting behavior from non-converting behavior. If you include all the wasted spend in your averages, you end up judging new keywords against a broken baseline. Instead, you want to look at what your converting traffic normally does and use that as your benchmark.Another big takeaway is that not all keywords deserve the same level of patience. Branded terms might convert every couple of clicks. Competitor terms might need fifty clicks before you see a sale. If you use one rule across the board, you'll end up killing keywords that were slow, not bad.We'll see you in The PPC Den!

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Are you feeding your data into AI and assuming the insights it gives you are accurate? What if those confident-sounding answers are quietly steering you in the wrong direction? More agency owners are turning to AI to analyze and interpret performance data, and for good reason. Used correctly, it can save massive amounts of time and move teams beyond using AI to crank out blog posts, ads, or emails faster. But when it comes to attribution, performance analysis, and real decision-making, AI has a dangerous flaw: it's often wrong with absolute confidence. Today's featured guest understands where most agencies go wrong with AI-driven data analysis. He'll break down why large language models frequently misinterpret marketing data, how flawed inputs and assumptions lead to misleading insights, and what it actually takes to get reliable answers from AI without burning budget or making bad strategic calls. Scott Desgrosseilliers is the founder and CEO of Wicked Reports, a marketing attribution platform built specifically for e-commerce brands doing between $5M and $50M in annual revenue. Scott has spent years deep in attribution, analytics, and now AI, figuring out how to separate real signal from noise in an ecosystem where every platform claims the win. He'll talk about how most platforms may be misleading you and the framework he uses to bring sanity back to attribution for serious e-commerce brands. In this episode, we'll discuss: Why AI is sounds smart but gets marketing attribution wrong. Injecting intention into AI. The Five Forces framework to improve your AI data.

Why AI Sounds Smart But Gets Marketing Attribution Wrong One of the biggest myths around AI is that it's inherently "smart." Scott shared that it took eight months for Wicked Reports to release their AI analyst, not because the tech wasn't powerful, but because it was too confident while being wrong. AI models are designed to sound affirmative. Ask them a bad question, and they'll still give you a polished answer. If you ask ChatGPT if you should jump off a bridge, it'll say, "Yes, that's a great idea," unless you explicitly train it to be critical. That's a massive problem when you're dealing with revenue attribution and ad spend decisions. Another major issue is that AI lacks native understanding of time, which is foundational to attribution. Clicks, impressions, tags, and conversions happen in sequence over days or weeks. Without heavy rules, coaching, and sanity checks layered in, AI can't naturally interpret cause and effect. Left alone, it simply fills in gaps, and those hallucinations can cost you real money. Why Intention and Metrics Matter More Than the AI Tool The first thing Scott's team had to "inject" into the AI was intention. Not all campaigns exist to do the same job. Prospecting, retargeting, direct response, and existing customer campaigns each have different goals and therefore require different scoreboards. If you don't tell the AI what the intention is for each row of data, it will make assumptions. And those assumptions are usually wrong. The "North Star" metrics and leading indicators change depending on what you're trying to accomplish. A prospecting campaign shouldn't be judged the same way as an abandoned cart flow. The second big issue is AI's obsession with ROAS. ROAS is easy to latch onto because it gets rewarded with "thumbs up" feedback, but it's often misleading. If two-thirds of your reported revenue comes from repeat customers via email or SMS, AI might tell you your ads are crushing it when they're not. Simply separating new customers from repeat customers already puts you ahead of 95% of advertisers. The Five Forces Framework for Making Better Attribution Decisions To solve these problems, Scott introduced his Five Forces Framework, (intention, expectation, action, outcome, and optimization) a methodology most agencies simply aren't using. The first force is Intention, which defines both the scoreboard and the timeframe. New customer acquisition might need a 30–90 day window to show results, while an abandoned cart campaign can be evaluated in seven days. Without this context, teams panic too early and kill campaigns that haven't had time to work. The second force is Expectation, which is all about alignment. Brand owners often look at Shopify, GA4, Meta, Google, Klaviyo, and SMS dashboards—all showing different numbers. Without agreeing on a single version of truth, clients freak out and shut down top-of-funnel campaigns after five days because the data "doesn't look good yet." Setting expectations isn't a one-time conversation; it has to be reinforced constantly. Reducing Drama: Use "Scale, Chill, and Kill" to Guide Ad Spend The third force is Action, which includes launching the campaign but only after defining clear boundaries. Scott recommends setting "Scale, Chill, and Kill" zones before you spend a dollar. For example, if your acceptable new customer acquisition cost is $50–$70, that's your Chill zone. Below $50? Scale it. Above $70? Kill it. These predefined rules remove emotion, reduce second-guessing, and dramatically lower what Scott calls "psychic stress" inside agencies and brands. Once campaigns run, the fourth force—Outcome—is simply measuring performance against those zones. Did it scale, chill, or die? Optimization Is More Than Creative Tweaks Most agencies obsess over creative, constantly swapping headlines, images, and copy. For Scott, optimization should be more structured. At his agency, they use a decision log to rank potential actions by impact, focusing on whether the problem is the offer, the creative, the traffic, or the budget. But Scott added a fourth optimization factor most teams miss: signaling. If you don't send the right signals back to ad platforms, your optimization efforts don't matter. Meta, in particular, is very good at claiming credit for conversions it didn't truly drive and if it sees quick conversions, it will chase more of those, even if they're just repeat customers. Training Ad Platforms to Optimize for What Actually Matters To fix this, Scott recommends creating separate events in Meta's Events Manager for new customer purchases versus repeat purchases. That way, ad sets can optimize specifically for the outcome you want. If you're closing existing customers through email or SMS, you don't want Meta learning from those conversions. But when a new customer buys, Meta gets a clean signal and starts finding more people like them. Scott noted that when creative and offer are solid, sharpening signals alone can dramatically reduce acquisition costs within a month. You can even go deeper by signaling based on SKU types, allowing platforms to optimize toward higher-quality or more strategic purchases—not just any conversion they can grab credit for.

In a week where the gold price soared to new heights and the rand flexed impressively against the dollar, The Finance Ghost and Moe-Knows have turned their focus to the high-stakes world of emerging markets. But as global indicators flash green, is it as simple as buying the $EEM? In this episode, Moe breaks down the macro recipe for a sustainable emerging markets rally and why South Africa might be in the sweet spot of a global rotation right now. He warns against ‘betting the farm' on emerging markets overall, highlighting the wisdom of being highly selective in where you place your capital. Ghost brings the conversation a little closer to home. He explores whether macro wins filter down to individual companies, with MTN as a great example of how a stock in South Africa can reflect the dollar realities. He also deals with the recent Clicks and Cashbuild performance and the jitters in the South African consumer story. This week's topics: The emerging market rotation: A global investment view on developed vs. emerging markets. The three pillars of an emerging market rally: Understanding the essential roles of a softer dollar, easier interest rates, and the electrification-led commodity surge. MTN as a currency proxy: A clever way to play frontier market currency shifts through a telecom giant. The Clicks and Cashbuild conundrum: Why falling inflation and record Black Friday sales aren't translating into volume growth for SA retailers. Yield vs. growth: Why South Africa remains a carry trade destination for bonds, even while the consumer economy faces structural pressure.

As anti-Israel influencers in Miami parade their ignorance for clicks, and a handful of church leaders in the holy land rail against Christian Zionism, we must question their motivation. All of this stokes antisemitism that continues to spread at a pace this nation has not seen in generations. As Jewish communities face harassment, as lies about Israel spread like wildfire, and as Israeli hostage Ron Givil remains in captivity, his fate is a reminder of the evil we are up against.

CES 2026 recap with Marc Aflalo and Mitchell Whitfield, covering the shift from AI buzzwords to real outcomes, the return of BlackBerry-style typing with Clicks, Pebble's comeback with a color e-ink watch and a $70 voice memo ring, LG's household robot, Dell reviving XPS, Samsung's trifold and a no-crease folding display preview, and Lego Smart Bricks that add lights, sound, sensors, and on-brick logic.Marc and Mitchell kick off the new year with CES, and a simple question: what will actually show up in real life after the hype? They agree the tone around AI changed. AI is still everywhere, but brands are selling results instead of shouting “AI.” Marc points to privacy concerns and recent headlines as part of the reason. The show floor feels less like one giant theme and more like a mix of ideas that let people chase what interests them. They run through the biggest standouts. Clicks returns with two products. First, an updated MagSafe slide-out QWERTY keyboard accessory that works across devices. Second, the Clicks Communicator, a prototype Android 16 phone built around distraction-free communication, with a stripped-down interface and a clear “secondary device” pitch. Mitchell likes the idea, but questions whether most people want to carry two phones.Pebble makes a comeback at CES with the Pebble Round 2, a round watch with a full color e-ink display, built as an accessory, not a phone replacement. They also flag Pebble's new smart ring, priced around $70 to $75, with a microphone for quick voice memos and one-button reminders, positioned as a lower-cost, less intrusive option compared to higher-priced rings.Robots show up again, this time with a practical angle. Marc calls out LG's household robot, aimed at folding laundry, helping with kitchen tasks, and interacting with smart appliances. Mitchell immediately jumps to security risks, then lands on the real question: cost. These robots need to become mainstream enough to stop feeling like luxury items.Dell revives the XPS brand in a more serious way than a simple rebrand. Marc highlights the clean XPS branding, new 14- and 16-inch models, and fixes to past complaints. Mitchell adds that XPS still matters for people who want high-end performance without the gamer look.Samsung's Galaxy Trifold gets its official moment, but the bigger story is the booth teaser, a folding screen preview with no visible crease. They both want real video proof, not marketing images. The conversation turns to hinge engineering, materials, and the likely premium pricing of folding hardware.Then they hit the moment Mitchell has been waiting for: Lego Smart Bricks. They describe bricks with chips that recognize other bricks, plus built-in lights, sounds, music, and sensors that detect movement, rotation, pressure, and orientation. Marc adds the key detail: logic can run on the bricks themselves, triggering actions when parts tilt, separate, or reconnect. They predict companion app control, Bluetooth customization, and a big wave of sets starting with Star Wars, then Marvel.Subscribe and follow Your Tech Report for ongoing CES 2026 follow-ups, including interviews with CTA's Allie Fried and more guests from the show floor, plus check-ins with companies featured in past years.

How will Medicare's telehealth back-and-forth – and new developments like the 10-year CMS ACCESS Model – reshape the investor playbook? Markus Bolsinger, co-head of Dechert's global private equity practice, joins Dechert partner Jennifer Hutchens and associate Brooke Meadowcroft to unpack shifts from pandemic-era expansion to the October 1, 2025 “telehealth cliff” and reinstatement through January 30, and what they mean for strategics and PE. They explore the convergence with DTC pharma and how digital-first infrastructure, data integration and safeguards can make telehealth the connective tissue between coverage and access to care.

CES 2026 trends take center stage in this conversation with tech journalist Jon Cohen. You hear how AI has shifted from hype to practical, on-device use, why privacy now matters more, and which products feel close to real-world adoption.From the show floor in Las Vegas, Marc Aflalo sits down with Jon Cohen to unpack what CES 2026 actually delivered. AI is still everywhere, but the tone has changed. Companies now focus on local, on-device AI instead of cloud-first systems, driven by privacy concerns and faster processing power.Jon highlights two future-facing ideas that stood out. The first is a non-invasive breath sensor that aims to estimate blood glucose levels using molecular analysis. It is still in clinical trials, but the potential impact for people with diabetes or pre-diabetes is clear. The second is a new generation of exoskeletons designed for daily life, work environments, and aging in place, rather than extreme activity or sports.They also explore the rise of assistive and age-focused tech, the growing accessibility presence at CES, and why augmented reality glasses are evolving more quietly than expected. Jon shares insights on new smart glasses designs that address privacy concerns, the explosion of robots on the show floor, and even a blackjack-playing robot built for Vegas.The conversation wraps with hands-on impressions of the Clicks physical keyboard phone, nostalgia-fueled BlackBerry design cues, and a clever new audio concept from Soundcore that blends open-ear listening with active noise cancelling. Chapters0:01 – CES 2026 overview and AI maturity0:45 – On-device AI and privacy shift2:45 – Non-invasive glucose monitoring by breath4:44 – Exoskeletons for work and aging in place6:17 – Accessibility and age tech at CES7:00 – Smart glasses and privacy-first design8:20 – Robots everywhere at CES9:29 – AI ethics and public perception10:48 – Gesture control and wearable interfaces11:18 – Blackjack-playing robot in Las Vegas11:36 – Clicks keyboard phone hands-on impressions14:45 – Soundcore AeroFit Pro 2 audio conceptLike and subscribe for weekly coverage of tech, accessibility, and real-world innovation.
