1. Are you spending your daily budget? - You're fine. If not you may be so ultra niche you can't spend more, thats a tough one to figure out. 85% impression share is fine, you wont always get 100%.. I routinely see in my account 90-96%, but 85% honestly is not bad. Point is no one really gets...
Started to go through my Steely Dan collection the last week on repeat now that I have my iPod modified with a SSD and bigger battery and also loading up other music.
However, i also listen to a lot of shit to help in my marketing life/career.
Things like:
--
While a lot of this is now...
I'm not so sure of this.
Granted, I don't know what you are doing and example you gave might just be weak ( or I don't understand it ), but I have gotten Ai to do whatever I want and I ask and do some complex shit with it.
I think it comes down to a few things:
1. model you are working with...
I'm an OPPORTUNIST, so it comes down to what does the client need.
Some client just want a strategist, some want an ad manager, some what someone to do the ad management and LP copy and backend.
Just purely depends on what they want, but I myself dont restrict myself.
I dont much trading, but I do invest.
Largely just weekly purchases of SP500 of a set $ amount.
But then I have a huge lump sitting in just cash at the brokerage too, for when the SP500 dips down more than X% and I might take 1/5th of the cash and buy SP500. I do this in a tiered strategy so I...
I don't remember the convo details, but:
1. Bidding on the competitor term is allowed. Meaning you bid on "send grid" and your ad is generic. - Your fine.
2. Bidding on competitor term and then having "SendGrid" in the ad too - not going to end well. If trademarked and listed with Google...
Modding my 5.5th gen iPod.
Larger battery, larger Flash micro SD storage, bluetooth, USB-C, taptic, and RockBox software.
Loading with music, audiobooks, videos, etc I don't wanna have to pay for every month... good bye XM Radio, Spotify, Apple Music, and whatever else I pay for that should be...
I understand the wanting to keep it local/open-source to pay less for fails.
However, as a heavy user of Ai for video ads, I can tell you the paid models are far more advanced.
You will spend a hella lot more time and wasted stress on regenerating fails on the open source, then any cost you...
Yes and I do it all the time.
It's called Projects in ChatGPT AND in Claude
Or
Gems in Gemini
These features have been around a while now, start using them.
People have been burnt by diet pills and diet fads for going on 3/4ths of a century or more now, looking at modern advertising. Longer if you look at the snake oil salesmen of the 1800's and Im sure this went on in Ancient times too back with Cleopatra, etc.
They still buy into diet fads today...
I feel it's a croc of shit.
We launched SerpWoo on it and I actually got to the point we had the highest votes for it for the day I set it up, during the day.
At the end of the day, we were no where to be found on the list though, even though we had the most votes.
It was like they decided at...
I'd say it depends.
Interests were never what people thought they were. Not ever.
People always thought interests meant, people were a positive signal for that interest group.
But it wasn't
Go leave negative comments on posts about cats. Pretty soon you will be in the "cat" interest group (...
You mention a few things here.
As an entrepreneur, your job is to solve problems.
Initially, this is why I built SERPWoo.com.
I was ranking organically back before SEO was even a thing when I was a Yahoo Directory editor and DMOZ editor. Then I did it with Google too. But I got out of SEO to...
Google offering buyouts to it's employees that work in the Ads unit.

I know 100% for a fact Google is hunting for more money in their pockets atm based on other events, and now this?
I'm on my way this year ( the $26M was last year ) to hit over $60M+ in ad spend this year alone.
Prior years I have done more than $200M in ad spend, but COVID really took a toll on a lot of advertisers and those types of spend years vanished for a lot of marketers who had clients.
Good to be...
1. Anywhere from free ( samples ) to $50k+
This ranges from companies like your local HVAC and plumber, to Alibaba, TeamViewer, MalwareBytes, Virgin, John Deere, PGA, etc
2. Yes
3. Yes, but finding someone like me is gonna be tough. Trust = yes, skillful as me = idk. There are plenty of good...

1. I think for your example, with or without you, this happens with the ROAS and profit example. Even if I wasn't running ads and I did nothing ( like you said ) - it would happen.
Based on that, I don't think about it. If it can happen without me, it will happen with me so a lot...
Can you export data to CSV or Sheets?
I don't do YouTube Organic much, so I don't know if you can get "reports".
But I take my YouTube Paid ( from Google Ads ) and export data as CSV and then upload the CSVs to ChatGPT. I even do multiple CSV's as time series and compared the uploads.
I's say stick with the Ai, but learn a secondary skill.
The Ai route will take a while.
I'm working with some big names, who are true authorities in SERP results ( pre Ai, and currently ) and they have horrible results in Ai. I'm talking people who dominate SERPs organically, have huge social...
I firmly believe $0.80 of every ad dollar should be spent on the headline/hook.
IYKYK
Because of this, I have always been more focused on hooks and headlines than other parts of my ad.
And seeing how Google and Meta are shifting us to more to CTV and Linear type of targeting, this focus has...
