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

The Science of Flipping | Become a real estate investor | Real Estate Investing like Robert Kiyosaki
In this episode of The Science of Flipping, I sat down with Jason from MotivatedSellers.com, one of the top lead generation companies in the game. We got real about what it actually takes to convert a motivated seller lead—spoiler alert: it's way more than a couple calls and a text. Jason breaks down why 27% of their leads close within a year, but 64% of those don't go under contract until 90+ days after the lead comes in. We dive deep into real data, proper expectations, why follow-up is everything, and how you can stop blaming the leads and start closing more deals. If you're running PPC, buying pay-per-leads, or thinking about lead gen in any serious way—this episode is your wake-up call.
In this episode of The Digital Marketing Podcast, Daniel, Ciaran, and Louise take a deep dive into the often-misunderstood world of keyword research - one of the most foundational yet complex elements of digital marketing. What starts as a seemingly simple task (“just pick some keywords, right?”) quickly unravels into a minefield of audience intent, brand positioning, search behaviour shifts, and the sometimes soul-crushing reality of traffic that doesn't convert. The trio break down the full process with real-world insight, humour, and some very candid reflections on what not to do. From teaching postgraduate students at Imperial College to running real commercial SEO campaigns, Daniel shares his evolving approach to keyword strategy - highlighting how brand clarity, buyer personas, and mapping the full user journey are essential to getting keyword research right. What you'll learn in this episode: Why volume-based keyword selection is a trap How to balance traffic, intent, and competition in your keyword choices Why middle-of-the-funnel content is often your secret weapon How to prune and optimise your existing content for better conversions The problem with vanity metrics (and what to track instead) How new AI-powered tools like Content Raptor and Keywords Everywhere are changing the game The role of search across Google, YouTube, social and even email What to look for in competitor analysis and how to use keyword clustering effectively Louise brings sharp insight into modern search behaviour and the growing importance of voice, conversational search, and featured snippets, while Ciaran opens up about years of chasing traffic volume before realising conversions are what truly count. (Spoiler: a blog about banana peels and Botox might bring in traffic—but probably not sales.) The episode ends with a step-by-step process for approaching keyword research in 2025, including content ideation, testing, SEO hooks, and how to integrate what you learn across multiple marketing channels. Key Takeaways: Keyword research isn't about finding more keywords - it's about finding the right ones. Strategic alignment between brand, content, and intent is critical. Most marketers overinvest in top-of-funnel traffic and neglect conversion-focused content. Updating and optimising your existing content can often move the needle more than publishing something new. A good keyword is one that drives results - not just visits. With tools, frameworks, and honest advice, this episode is your ultimate keyword research sanity-check. Whether you're building a content strategy from scratch or refining an existing one, this is the guide you didn't know you needed.
In this compelling episode, marketing trailblazer Jay Berkowitz takes us on a journey from his early days working for household names like Coca-Cola and McDonald's in Canada to becoming a digital marketing pioneer in the U.S. Jay shares how he helped grow a dot-com startup into a $60 million company at the dawn of the internet advertising era—before Google was even out of beta. Through a mix of firsthand stories, evolving marketing philosophies, and game-changing innovations, Jay outlines how he transitioned from consultant to full-scale digital agency founder, and how his strategic approach to sales and public speaking helped him build long-lasting success. Jay delves into the transformative impact of artificial intelligence on search marketing, the importance of leading industry trends, and his team's commitment to innovation through the "Rule of Three" and quarterly product launches. He highlights key lessons from books like The E-Myth and Traction, and explains how implementing structured systems like EOS helped him scale his agency while empowering his team. Listeners will gain deep insight into how niching down, adapting quickly to technology shifts, and building a leadership-driven culture can unlock sustainable business growth—especially in competitive sectors like legal marketing. Takeaways: Success in digital marketing and business often begins with identifying a real, unmet need—whether it's helping companies get online, educating audiences on emerging tools like Google, or modernizing direct response strategies. Solving meaningful problems builds trust and creates organic demand.Before scaling a business, it's vital to understand how to sell your services. Speaking engagements, clear value propositions, and a strong understanding of the client's pain points help establish authority and drive growth—often more effectively than traditional sales pitches.Applying systems like the EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) or the E-Myth framework enables businesses to scale sustainably. Implementing SOPs, structured leadership roles, and regular strategy sessions creates stability and fosters long-term growth.Leveraging emerging technologies like AI and tools such as ChatGPT or automated intake systems can offer a major competitive advantage. A proactive mindset toward testing and integrating new tools is essential to stay relevant in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.Focusing on a specific vertical—like personal injury law or franchise marketing—enables deeper expertise, easier prospecting, and better client results. Niching down streamlines operations and opens the door for scalable, repeatable strategies that outperform generalized approaches.Successful marketing today is built on data. Understanding a business's digital footprint—from Google Maps rankings to PPC performance—can uncover opportunities that significantly impact client outcomes. Tools and reporting are no longer optional—they're foundational. High-performing teams are built on trust, shared leadership, and mutual accountability. Clients who approach marketing as a partnership, trust expert advice, and operate with structured business practices consistently achieve better results and long-term growth.

Welcome to a timely episode of Build a Better Agency! This week, host Drew McLellan is joined by research partner Susan Baier from Audience Audit to unveil the results of the 2025 Agency Edge Research, fresh from its debut at the Build a Better Agency Summit. Together, they dig deep into how agency clients really feel about artificial intelligence—where they're embracing it, where they're hesitant, and what they truly want from their agency partners as AI becomes an ever-more central part of the marketing landscape. Susan and Drew break down the study's findings, revealing surprising good news for agencies: most clients are not only comfortable with agencies using AI, they actually want their agencies to be transparent and step up as guides and educators in the new AI-driven world. The episode introduces the three client mindsets the research uncovered—AI Embracers, AI Skeptics, and AI Opportunists—exploring what each group wants, fears, and expects when it comes to agency use of AI. Along the way, Susan shares eye-opening data that challenges common agency fears, like the myth that all clients want to replace agencies with tech or are solely focused on cost savings. . Drew and Susan discuss practical, actionable opportunities for agency leaders to build trust, grow their strategic value, and tap into new revenue streams by leading client conversations about AI. They emphasize key client desires: greater transparency around AI use, expert guidance on tools and applications, and clear communication about regulations and risk. You'll also hear why clients view agency guidance on AI as an entry point not just for marketing, but for broader organizational needs—a potential seat at the coveted strategy table. Don't miss this episode if you want to stay a step ahead in the evolving AI landscape.

Today on the Wholesale Hotline Podcast (Wholesaling Inc Edition), Brent Daniels is joined by Ellis Tran. He dives deep into the world of co-living/padsplit, sharing his personal strategies and top advice to help you get started. This episode is packed with value — I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Show notes -- in this episode we'll cover: Ellis explains why the two most powerful words in real estate are no longer just "cash flow"—they're now “pad” and “split,” revealing how co-living allows investors to generate income even in high-priced appreciation markets. A full breakdown of how Padsplit's room-by-room rental model can turn a single-family home into a 7–9 bedroom income machine, generating $2K–$2.5K/month in net cash flow—even at Arizona's current median home price. Key property criteria for successful co-living investments: C to C+ neighborhoods, non-HOA, corner lots, close to public transportation and job centers—plus how to legally structure rentals to navigate density and zoning rules. Why Padsplit's tech-driven platform is “Airbnb for affordable housing,” offering furnished rooms with no credit checks for renters, while handling payments, tenant screening, and conflict mitigation for investors. Insights into how investors are scaling fast, converting underperforming Airbnbs and even building multifamily Padsplits—like one project converting 24 duplexes into 96 cash-flowing bedrooms projected to gross $90K/month.

This week, host Drew McLellan is joined by Matt Davies and Pieter-Paul von Weiler, the strategist duo behind the Better Briefs Project, to tackle one of the most persistent and frustrating challenges agencies face: the elusive art of creating a truly effective brief. If you've ever struggled with unclear objectives, misaligned expectations, or wasted rounds of creative development, this episode is packed with data-driven answers and practical solutions. Drawing on global research from over 1,700 marketers and agency professionals across 70 countries, Matt and Pieter-Paul share eye-opening findings about the wide gap between what clients think they're delivering in a brief and what agencies are actually receiving. They break down the staggering disconnect—like the fact that 78% of marketers believe their briefs offer clear strategic direction, while only 5% of agencies agree—and explore the ripple effect this misalignment has on wasted budgets, morale, and creative outcomes. Drew leads a discussion on why so many briefs fall short, what really constitutes a great brief, and how both agencies and clients can step up to improve the process. You'll hear actionable advice on teaching clients the value of a well-crafted brief, initiating honest conversations before a live project starts, and creating custom templates that actually work for both sides. Plus, Matt and Pieter-Paul draw on their extensive agency experience to explain the difference between client briefs and creative briefs, and how agencies can strategically refine incoming briefs for stronger creative results. Whether you're an agency owner, account executive, or creative lead, don't miss this episode if you're ready to reclaim lost time, reduce budget waste, and build stronger partnerships with your clients around the brief-writing process. By the end, you'll feel equipped to have more candid, constructive conversations and ensure every campaign starts with clarity and purpose.
