We covered a lot on our show today with Massimo Chieruzzi, as he tells his story through the episode while pulling out lessons about content marketing and lead scoring. This episode is part comedy and a whole lot of insights and tactics about content marketing. You’ll hear about some of the pinnacle moments Massimo had while building AdEspresso, his content marketing strategies, his thoughts about startups and the ups and down of moving your business to a new country. We also talk about how he was able to build up AdEspresso in such a short time by doing a lot of split tests, with actionable information and sharing the data of what they found. They also created a giant swipe file, which anyone can make for their own audience. Now you have a page on your site that’s very attractive where you are aggregating information, getting a ton of backlinks without having to create a 5,000 word post. We also talk about his big exit from the company, and how so many have this idea they will exit, retire onto easy street, but that’s usually never the case. You’ll also want to check out Massimo’s manifesto he wrote which is all about revenue acceleration on his new venture, Breadcrumbs.io. There’s a lot of principles in there that pulls a lot of the nuggets he references, such as the value exchange.

He’s a multi-hyphen dude. He’s been a radio speaker, journalist, developer, marketer, entrepreneur and angel investor.

L’applicazione di cui vi voglio parlare oggi si chiama Toggl, è un tool semplice ma allo stesso tempo potente soprattutto perché ha lavorato molto sulle integrazioni con altre applicazioni. Toggl serve a registrare – in diretta o in un secondo momento – il tempo che spendiamo a lavorare su determinate cose. Usarla è molto semplice: basta schiacciare un bottone e la app comincia a tracciare il tempo.E d’altra parte Toggl è scritto diversamente ma chiaramente richiama la parola inglese “toggle” che vuol dire far scattare un interruttore. A questa semplicità d’uso possiamo aggiungere un contesto, per esempio specificando su quale task stiamo lavorando e a quale progetto appartiene questo compito. In più, come accennavo prima, si possono inserire dei record di tempo anche manualmente, senza tracciarli in diretta.Continua su:http://www.MERITA.BIZ/76### NOTE DELLA PUNTATA ###Per seguire Massimo Chieruzzi il miglior modo è cominciare dal sito di AdEspresso.Poi lo trovate anche su Twitter e Linkedin.### PODCAST ###HTTP://www.MERITA.BIZ/PODCAST Sottoscrivi il podcast su: iTunes: http://j.mp/MERITA-ITUNES Stitcher:http://j.mp/MERITA-STITCHER Spreaker:http://j.mp/MERITA-SPREAKER Soundcloud:http://j.mp/MERITA-SOUNDCLOUD ##### WWW.MERITA.BIZ #####

AdEspresso rendere semplice l’ottimizzazione le campagne pubblicitarie su Facebook.AdEspresso rende facile per gli inserzionisti di Facebook testare diverse pubblicità attraverso un sistema di split testing economico e immediato. Il vantaggio è presto detto: consiste nel poter fare automaticamente diverse prove con le componenti visual e i testi mentre si fa visualizzare l’adv a diversi target demografici.Con pochi click, quello che avrebbe richiesto moltissimo tempo oggi ne richiede molto meno e tutto questo grazie a AdEspresso. Insomma AdEspresso lavora sul ritorno sull’investimento pubblicitario e aiuta il responsabile dell’azienda che sta conducendo la campagna a non sprecare tempo e fondi su target che rispondono meno di altri.L’idea è fantastica, la cosa incredibile è ci si potrebbe aspettare che un’impresa così la potesse realizzare solo un grande player della Silicon Valley, invece no. AdEspresso è una startup made in Italy che è cresciuta e si è poi internazionalizzata fino a diventare uno dei partner più influenti di Facebook.Gli amici di Merita Business Podcast ricorderanno la puntata registrata con Armando Biondi dal titolo “Startup in Italia o all’estero? Da dove parto per arrivare ai miei primi 10 milioni di euro”. Fu uno degli episodi più scaricati in assoluto i cui ci si interrogava su cosa fosse meglio: fondare la startup in Italia o direttamente all’estero.Ovviamente era rimasto aperto tutto il capitolo relativo a AdEspresso, ne avevamo parlato pochissimo e la curiosità di capire come dall’Italia si potesse fare una startup così di successo era rimasta sia in me che in alcuni ascoltatori che mi avevano scritto chiedendo qualche dettaglio in più sulla storia di questa startup.Aggiungendo a tutto ciò i risultati del sondaggio condotto fra gli ascoltatori del posdcast, i cui risultati chiedevano in maniera inequivocabile qualche storia d’impresa in più, l’idea di iniziare proprio da un successo italiano ha creato l’occasione per questa intervista a Massimo Chieruzzi, CEO e Co-Founder di AdEspresso.Ne è nato uno scambio interessantissimo che ha toccato moltissimi temi: dalla nascita della startup al ruolo dell’incubatore d’impresa. Dalla difficoltà di partire in lingua inglese alle sfide per trovare i talenti più adatti ad integrarsi in azienda. Dall’inbound marketing ai ritorni della pubblicità su Facebook.Insomma, una puntata registrata un po’ a metà fra Milano e San Francisco che appassionerà molti ascoltatori.Continua su:http://www.MERITA.BIZ/75### NOTE DELLA PUNTATA ###Per seguire Massimo Chieruzzi il miglior modo è cominciare dal sito di AdEspresso.Poi lo trovate anche su Twitter e Linkedin.### PODCAST ###HTTP://www.MERITA.BIZ/PODCAST Sottoscrivi il podcast su: iTunes: http://j.mp/MERITA-ITUNES Stitcher:http://j.mp/MERITA-STITCHER Spreaker:http://j.mp/MERITA-SPREAKER Soundcloud:http://j.mp/MERITA-SOUNDCLOUD ##### WWW.MERITA.BIZ #####

With so many advertising platforms out there, why should you choose Facebook, and what benefits does it offer over the other options? One of the biggest differences with Facebook compared to Google - for example - is that where Google helps you find new customers, Facebook helps new customers find you. Facebook boasts a huge worldwide audience of 1.55 billion active monthly users, and has unrivaled audience enormity. That reach alone makes Facebook appealing. But when you add in the ability to enhance audience targeting, increase reach for your content, awesome tracking of performance and ROI, and only spend as little as you like and still get results, Facebook advertising is a no brainer, especially for small businesses looking to make a big impact. Massimo Chieruzzi loves to talk about using Facebook advertising for small businesses. His business, Ad Espresso, is a leading Facebook Ads optimization platform. Massimo loves helping small businesses get the most from their Facebook advertising while keeping it both simple and affordable.   www.agentsofchangecon.com/160
