Over 150 hours of research, interviews went into the creation of this presentation on how today's fastest growing internet retail companies are accomplishing their remarkable growth.

Time Collapsing Mastermind Marketing Tips Business StrategyRoland Frasier
From the Ed O'Keefe Time Collapsing Mastermind in San Diego, California on March 9, 2017, these are the slides from my presentation on what's working now and marketing tips for 2017.
There are 3 really big takeaways in this deck. First, the benefits of a "More Than One" funnel. Revenue from offering tripwire buyers the ability to purchase more than one of whatever your product funnel lead item is typically exceeds an additional 50% of sales without offering multiple buy options on the front.
Second, we are using a great new content distribution and monetization tool called Sniply to share other people's content with our list. At the bottom of the content, Sniply provides a place for you to include a message and place a link and call to action related to the content.
Third, either Justin Brooke of IMScalable or Mike Rhodes came up with a super smart idea of how to reduce retargeting costs dramatically, actually by an amount equal to the bounce rate on your site. By delaying the firing of the retargeting pixel on your site for 45 or more seconds, you don't pixel people who are not interested in your site and who bounce. Brilliant.
Lots of other goodies here too. Definitely good actionable items to help you increase conversions, get competitive intelligence, some great MARTECH, marketing tools and more.
The AdWords ad auction is just another algorithm and any computer algo can be cracked. In this session I’ll review my analysis of $10 Billion in paid search spend and precisely explain how AdWords really works, and how to leverage various idiosyncrasies and system loopholes to generate massive profits using a purely white-hat approach. I’ll also cover a half dozen of the most insanely powerful features that are used by less than 3% of advertisers which have demonstrated ability to increase average returns by +2x each.

Monthly Social Media News Update May 2024Andy Lambert
TL;DR. These are the three themes that stood out to us over the course of last month.
1️⃣ Social media is becoming increasingly significant for brand discovery. Marketers are now understanding the impact of social and budgets are shifting accordingly.
2️⃣ Instagram’s new algorithm and latest guidance will help us maintain organic growth. Instagram continues to evolve, but Reels remains the most crucial tool for growth.
3️⃣ Collaboration will help us unlock growth. Who we work with will define how fast we grow. Meta continues to evolve their Creator Marketplace and now TikTok are beginning to push ‘collabs’ more too.
For too many years marketing and sales have operated in silos...while in some forward thinking companies, the two organizations work together to drive new opportunity development and revenue. This session will explore the lessons learned in that beautiful dance that can occur when marketing and sales work together...to drive new opportunity development, account expansion and customer satisfaction.
No, this is not a conversation about MQLs and SQLs. Instead we will focus on a framework that allows the two organizations to drive company success together.

32. “Settling The Quality Score”?
Link To PDF File: http://bit.ly/qs-whitepaper
Larry Kim (@larrykim) #wordstream
33. Key Finding #1: They’re Downplaying QS
Quality Score Is a Helpful Diagnostic Tool, Not a Key
Performance Indicator
•Why: Your Quality Score is like a warning light in a
car’s engine that shows how healthy your ads and
keywords are. It’s not meant to be detailed metric that
should be the focus of account management
-- Source: New Google White Paper on Quality
Score.
Larry Kim (@larrykim) #searchex
34. But Wait – What About This?:
QS is important in order for your ads to be successful
… QS plays a key role in determining your ad's
position and how much you'll pay for a click. In
general, the more relevant your ad, the higher your QS
– and the higher your QS, the better your position and
the less you will have to pay for a click...Being
successful with AdWords means getting your products
or services in front of the people who are most likely to
become your customers and a high Quality Score can
help make that happen.
-- Source: What is AdWords Quality Score and
Why Does It Matter?" from Google (2011)

39. Quick Recap
1. Below Avg. CTR =
Low QS
2. Low CTR ads:
Have Lower Ad Positions (Fewer Clicks)
Often don’t even get displayed
Get penalized w/ up to 400% higher CPCs
Have up to 64% higher cost per conversion

Keywords and Get HIGH CTRs.

Editor's Notes
Show how the keyword expansion is easier using a tool. Explain that we’re following the same best practices that Brad Suggested.
Now guys just a quick warning here. I’ve got like 40 data-packed slides and just 15 minutes to go through them so try to keep up! After all, this is SMX advanced not SMX beginner.
Talk about how google makes it very hard for PPC spammers, too. Google shut down millions of spammy accounts year. All keywords/ads are graded with a quality score. The higher your quality score, the higher your ad ranking and lower your cost per click.
The first big change I’ve noticed is that Google expects way more performance from your ads. They’ve raised the bar in terms of the quality they expect from your ads. Here I’m showing some research into expected click through rates across a few thousand advertiser accounts and found that the average click through rates for any given ad position is much higher than you might expect -- and keeps trending even higher. So why should you care?
Done
Talk about how google makes it very hard for PPC spammers, too. Google shut down millions of spammy accounts year. All keywords/ads are graded with a quality score. The higher your quality score, the higher your ad ranking and lower your cost per click.
I’ve heard people say that it’s not possible to get high quality scores in your specific industry (as if google has a personal grudge against you and your industry). Keep in mind that quality score is based on beating an expected average click through rate for a given ad position. So by definition, in any industry, essentially around half of the accounts out there have above average quality scores, the other half don’t.
To prove this, I recently segmented average quality scores by industry and found that in all industries, there were (surprise surprise) both high and low average quality scores for every industry!
For example, I looked at specifically at B2B companies (the purple dots in this graph) and found that the calculations used to determine their Quality Scores weren’t a heck of a lot different from any other industry.
What about Finance Companies – the yellow dots in the graph? surely google must be out to get wall street? Again, not a huge difference compared to other industries.
Same with Ecommerce companies – the orange dots in this graph. Again, their quality score calculations were very similar to every other industry out there. So if you hear anyone say that It’s not possible to get a high quality score – I think that could be a bit of a cop-out – the problem could be their strategy.

Talk about the reasons why we thought that there could be a great opportunity here.
Talk about the process of defining different audiences based on where they visited on our website, so that we can message to them differently in our ads. Talk about how we didn’t have to use managed placements because we already have people visiting the site and we’re merely trying to convert them.
Describe how we target different ads to different audiences. Mention that even though there are ad builders available from google, we designed our own.
