Show notes

If you need practical, tactical tips for your Facebook Ad Campaigns, we've got you. In this episode you will hear from Molly Pittman, Pepijn Hufen, and Dennis Paskalev in Part 2 of our 'What's Working Now' double feature. You'll hear why Molly is so excited to have these two Media Buying experts on the Podcast sharing with you all. Listen for several under-utilized retargeting strategies, ways to scale your top of funnel ads, and more.

"Even now, in these times, it all comes down to basics. Right? And that doesn't mean the basics are easy, but marketing to a certain extent has not changed, only like the true colors of how good of a marketer you actually are. All that becomes much more visible, now that the algorithm is struggling a bit". Pepijn Hufen.

Ep. 94, Google's Performance Max - A Dream For Digital Marketers? With Molly Pittman and Kasim Aslam. Mar 21, 2022

Show notes

Traditionally, 50% of all Google Ads Campaigns fail in the first 90 days. So why are these two leading marketers SO excited about Google's Performance Max? Hasn't it been generally getting a bad rap?

Our guest today, Kasim Aslam, owns the #1 Ranked Google Ads Agency on The Planet. Listen if a Google Ad-Type that's Audience centric (instead of KeyWord centric) is music to your ears. Kasim talks with Molly about how (and why) Google seems to have been holding back - but is now laying their cards on the table. You'll hear all about Performance Max, what it is, and what it can do for you.

"The Google ecosystem is so much more robust than the Facebook ecosystem. Facebook is an app or a website. Google owns the world, it's the internet, right? The Google display network reaches 90% of internet users." Aslam.
