How to Hire a Google Ads Agency Without Losing Your Shirt
We all need help with Google Ads from time to time. It’s a big system, and nobody can specialise in all of it.
The problem is, getting help from a consultant or agency is fraught with risk. It’s a Wild West industry, that seems to be getting more wild as time passes.
So the question is: how should you protect yourself as a business owner? What do you need to know before hiring help?
This conversation provides an insight into how an agency really works, and how to approach one in a way that negates your risk.

Levels of Buyer Awareness
Building a remarketing maze isn’t right for everyone. So what is the use case? And should you begin on Google, Facebook… or somewhere else?
The answer comes down to your buyer’s level of awareness. In other words, how much do they know about the problem they have, and about your solution?
On this episode we talk about how to audit your audience by awareness, in order to make sensible investments in your marketing systems.
The book mentioned at the start is Breakthrough Advertising, by Eugene Schwartz (highly recommended if you can find it). Ben Hunt’s ladder of awareness (based on Schwartz’s work) is detailed here.
