Simple beats complex
In non-marketer speak - if you complicate things you just confuse people. And confused people do the WORST thing possible. Nothing. They don't buy. Because they're confused. And they're confused because... you confused them. If you gave me 100 accounts to manage I'd probably end up simplifying at LEAST 95 of them. Simplify the offer. Simplify the ad. Simplify the CTA. Simplify the landing page. Less static, less noise, fewer potential obstacles for your prospect to trip over.

you really need to do this
Hi, It's Kyle. Quick one this time. If you run a local business you need to be using Google ads. There is no local business that would be hurt by using Google ads. Every local business in existence would benefit from doing Google ads. Every. Single. One. I guarantee it. BUT. If you're using it you do need to know what you're doing.

Little hinges
Learn about this huge difference in ranking for this client by changing a little "hinge".. "Little hinges swing big doors." Hi, It's Kyle. Had something weird happen to me this week, wanted to tell you about it. So we're helping this client rank in the top 3 in Google for his business.

Cheaters
This is how we beat two cheaters to rank our clients business #1 on Google. Hi, It's Kyle. Was doing some client work recently. We got hired to rank him in Google's top 3. So we got to work. Couple weeks go by, we do what we do best, and after all that I checked the results. Good news and bad news. Good news: He made considerable progress from his initial spot (#27) Bad news: He was ranking #4 Turns out we were having a hard time ranking him in Google's top 3! This rarely hap
