Send us a textCPMs are the great equalizer of marketing media. To make great decisions, you need to know how to calculate them and when to use them.In this episode of the Maven Marketing Podcast, Brandon Welch and Caleb Agee break down one of the most misunderstood metrics in all of advertising: CPM, or Cost Per Thousand (impressions). The “M” is from the Latin word “Mille” meaning thousand. Marketers love to talk about targeting and impressions, but without understanding what CPM tells you, you might be overspending without realizing it.Learn how to calculate CPMs accurately, what counts as a good CPM across different platforms, and—most importantly—how to compare medias with each other.You'll learn:The real definition of CPM and how to use itWhy CPMs are crucial in Tomorrow MarketingAverage CPM benchmarks across digital, TV, streaming, and out-of-homeThe danger of random impressions and why repetition winsHow to ask the right questions when buying mediaIf you're running any kind of advertising campaign—this is the marketing math that can make or break your ROI.Subscribe for new episodes every Monday, and email us your marketing questions at MavenMonday@frankandmaven.comFREE MARKETING AUDIT: MavenMarketingAudit.comOur Website: https://frankandmaven.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmavenTwitter: https://twitter.com/frankandmavenLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/Host: Brandon WelchCo-Host: Caleb AgeeExecutive Producer: Carter BreauxAudio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera GuyDo you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

Send us a textWe can get distracted by all the activities and actions associated with marketing. Still, when it comes down to it, there are only 3 things that marketing can do to attract customers. On this episode of Maven Monday, Brandon and Caleb will help you shed all of the complexity and asses what result you can really expect from your marketing.Are you trying to bring people to your category? You'll need to convince them to buy what you're selling and then you need to convince them to buy it from you.Should you convince them to buy from you instead of a competitor? Getting a bigger piece of the market is usually the biggest focus of your marketing.Or can you make them come back and do repeat business? Your previous customers can help you increase profitability, get higher close rates, and help you grow your customer base. This is one of the most overlooked options in marketing.You could be sitting on a gold mine!FREE MARKETING AUDIT: MavenMarketingAudit.comOur Website: https://frankandmaven.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmavenTwitter: https://twitter.com/frankandmavenLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/Host: Brandon WelchCo-Host: Caleb AgeeExecutive Producer: Carter BreauxAudio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera GuyDo you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

Send us a textYou're busy.As a small business marketer, you've got so many hats stacked on your head that you've gotta duck every time you walk through a doorway. Get this approved. Design that. Put out a fire over there.Today, Caleb & Kyle are going to help you breathe just a bit easier! On this episode of Maven Monday, we're going to share three practices that will make you a more productive marketer. These are the same practices the team at Frank & Maven uses to help manage dozens of clients across the country and grow them year after year.We'll start by Time Blocking. Instead of having a task list, you're going to structure your day around a constant that no one can avoid: time. This will help you be realistic about what you can accomplish daily. You'll tell your time where to go instead of wondering where it went.Then, we'll discuss the four-minute feedback meeting. Yes, you heard that right. FOUR. MINUTES. If you gather everyone in one room, show them what you've got, and hear their live thoughts, you'll get what you need quickly and save them the headache of another hour-long meeting.Finally, you're going to start using a second brain. No, science hasn't progressed this far, but technology certainly has. Get the little details, notes, and tasks out of your brain and into a tool that helps to organize everything. Whether you realize it or not, you'll feel more freedom to actually be creative and do better problem-solving.FREE MARKETING AUDIT: MavenMarketingAudit.comOur Website: https://frankandmaven.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmavenTwitter: https://twitter.com/frankandmavenLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/Host: Brandon WelchCo-Host: Caleb AgeeExecutive Producer: Carter BreauxAudio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera GuyDo you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

Do you ever feel like time should stand still, especially when it comes to the magic of Walt Disney World? This week, Britt and I whirled through the theme park's most treasured attractions, from the swashbuckling adventures on Pirates of the Caribbean to the cosmic zoom of Space Mountain. We mused over the moments that make these rides timeless, and even got into a friendly dispute about the ideal temperature for experiencing Florida's enchanting world of fantasy.Our conversation didn't stop at the borders of Walt Disney World. We ventured into the realms of Disneyland and California Adventure, where our hearts beat for the classic thrills like the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror and the cherished Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular. These are the attractions that, in our eyes, should never change a pixel in their storytelling tapestry, as their charm and nostalgia are what keep us coming back for more. We even cast a loving gaze at the unsung heroes like "Living with the Land," sharing our conviction that these experiences are just as vital to the park's spirit.Finally, we peeked into the crystalline future with the upcoming Journey of Water inspired by Moana and defended the wild integrity of Disney's Animal Kingdom. From the majestic peaks of Expedition Everest to the soaring flights on Avatar's banshees, we agreed these attractions should remain untouched, preserving the enchantment that Disney's mastery has painted for us all.
