[Podcast] #48 Free is Bad

2020-11-24T16:10:51+00:00

Have you thought about your daily routine, and how much is FREE? Have you ever stopped to think about all of the “free” things that you use every day? Email, Search, Web Browsers, Social Media, Apps, News & Information? All of these things cost someone, and they have to be paid for somehow. Unfortunately, according to John Marshall’s new book, Free is Bad, you are paying for these services, just not in the traditional way.  What all of these “free” things have in common is that they are supported by the ad-tech system.  By using these, [...]

2020-10-27T14:51:34+00:00

Marketing's Lack of Empathy in a Pandemic Where is True Empathy? Any number of marketing media articles are focused on the economics of the pandemic.  From spend estimates, sales estimates, and consumer psychology.  Especially as we head into the holiday season, we are being bombarded with news and advice about how to position, brand, and sell in these "unprecedented times." But where is the recognition and realization of the impact that this pandemic has held?  Where is the realization that people may not be ready to spend, or even not have the money to spend?  Granted, marketing's job is [...]

Endless Coffee Cup #45: Searching for Keywords

2020-10-01T16:17:56+00:00

Don't Overlook the Most Powerful Tool in Marketing: Keywords Keywords are the foundation for digital marketing. They provide in-depth marketing data of searcher intent, word associations, and buying factors. So why is this important tool so overlooked? And why is Google slowly taking keyword data away? Many believe that AI will replace the need for traditional keyword research, but that may be a short-sighted view of the purpose of keywords.   Keywords provide insight into the searcher’s mind and allow us to find critical insights such as intent, questions, and surrounding context. More than just for rankings, [...]

Decoding Google's Search Algorithm How reliable are the SEO Studies that claim to have reverse-engineered Google's search algorithm? In this episode, Jeff Ferguson of Amplitude Digital and Jennifer Hood, Data Analytics Consultant join Matt to discuss the accuracy of studies of Google's search engine ranking algorithm.  Many SEO companies claim to have tested multiple aspects of the ranking algorithm and then use this data to sell their products.

2020-07-02T16:51:28+00:00

The Amazing World of Ad Fraud Uber turns off 2/3 of their programmatic ad spend ($150 million) – and sees no change in results.

A recent ISBA Programmatic Supply Chain Transparency Study – found no transparency and that 15% of ad spend simply “disappears” into the system, without a trace.

The Need for Digital Literacy Skills Fake News, Deceptive Ads, Propaganda Matt and Ashley met up and recorded a socially-distanced podcast a few weeks ago.  Of course, the conversation turned to the overwhelming amount of fake news surrounding COVID-19.  But beyond fake news, there is a substantial problem in people’s ability to discern what is true and what is false information online.   In addition, meme culture creates, perpetuates, and reduces complex issues to binary choices. Many times, they break rules of logic and argumentation to further an agenda by inflaming the emotions of the audience. And [...]
