In this episode… What is the biggest mistake that high-growth ecommerce brands are making right now? According to advertising experts Benton Crane and Jason Portnoy, it's that many brands choose only one of two types of advertising: direct response marketing or traditional branding. Not only is this binary thinking holding you back from success, but it may actually be detrimental to your business in the coming years. With imminent changes in digital advertising and paid media as a result of iOS 14, Benton and Jason suggest that it may be time to bridge the gap between advertising that generates ROI and advertising that builds your brand. So, what exactly can you expect from the future of marketing, and how can you ensure that you stay in business when it happens? Discover what the future of digital advertising holds in this episode of the eCommerce Profits Podcast as Joshua Chin interviews Jason Portnoy, Founder and CEO of JPORT Media, and Benton Crane, CEO of Harmon Brothers. Together, they discuss the importance of mentors when building a business, how to bridge the gap between advertising for ROI and building brand equity, and what to expect from iOS 14 and other changes to paid media. Stay tuned for more!

Favorite Quote “Anyone who wants to grow, I want to have a conversation and see if I could help you. At the same time, I'm completely transparent and honest. If I do not believe I could help you or bring any value to you. I will not take one cent from you. I don't believe in being paid without delivering value.” - Jason Portnoy Connect with Jason Portnoy: Instagram Twitter Jportnoy.com Perfectly Mentored Podcast Jportmedia.com Jason@jportmedia.com Connect with Mario Arace: marioarace.com Facebook Instagram Enjoyed the Podcast?
