In this episode, Stephanie Rado Taormina joins me to discuss life, business, mindfulness, and her journey as a creative entrepreneur.

Stephanie is the owner of Have Some Fun Today, a brand inspired by shifting people's mindsets and bringing joy.   

I truly had an awesome time interviewing her and I believe her brand is full of meaning and purpose.

Stephanie and I connected via LinkedIn. When I came across her profile, I noticed it was filled with wisdom, mindfulness, and stories of her life's work and journey. This drew my to her, as I also believe in the importance of mindfulness and feel it has changed my life.

In this video, Search Engineers host Matt Abbagnaro interviews Rob Fraser of Endur Apparel.  Endur apparel just celebrated it's 5 year anniversary! Huge congratulations to Rob and his entire team.  We go deep in this episode on what it means to be an entrepreneur, how to deal with setbacks, Rob's journey from $0-$10 Million in sales, and more.  Rob shares a story of a trying time in his business when he had to buy out his co-founder because of poor performance. To do this, he took out a personal loan of over $100,000, only 2 years into his business.  Since then, he has skyrocketed his success. Rob believes adversity and struggle in business can be a huge advantage to you in the long run.  I know for sure so many people can gain a ton of value from this episode

Bing Shopping Ads are an AMAZING way to boost revenue in your business!


According to Statista.com , 38% of Bing users report an average household income of $100,000 or more.
33% of Bing users have at least a Bachelor’s degree
Bing receives 12 billion searches per month worldwide
Monthly search volume of Bing in the united states is 500m

-One thing you can do is go inside your Microsoft Ads and Google Ads accounts. Open Microsoft keyword planner, and Google keyword planner. Enter some relevant keywords in your niche, and compare average search volume and cost per click. You will find that for most of the keywords you search for, Microsoft Ads cost per clicks will be significantly lower almost every time.

-In addition to CPCs being lower, like we read at the beginning of this episode, a significant amount of the traffic that you will be paying for will be from folks with an average annual income of $100K or more.

-People still think Bing is useless, and this is exactly why it is such an amazing opportunity right now. Most big box retailers and larger ecommerce stores are not taking advantage of Bing AT ALL. This leaves a huuuge hole in the game waiting to be filled by whoever is willing to take action.

-Native ads, facebook ads, facebook retargeting ads, youtube ads, and shopping ads all play a very different and important role in your funnel. Whether you’re just getting started, or just looking to boost revenue in your business, Bing shopping ads are a HUGE way to increase sales.
