Do you feel like you're burning money at the altar of Facebook while Zuckerberg builds a VR empire? Are you earning break even ROAS, and hoping ad prices don't rise any further?
If you are, that's not uncommon.
In August, I was at Ecommerce Day in LA, and heard their keynote speaker say "Facebook and Google's entire business model is to take credit of sales that were already going to happen."
And then he convinced me that was true.
Joining us today with some unconventional wisdom on building a better marketing plan for your brand is Rand Fishkin.
Rand Fishkin is cofounder and CEO of SparkToro, makers of fine audience research software.
