    How to Create a 'Moat' Around Your Company/Department Like Meta

    Are you hesitant to invest in your team, fearing they might leave after you put in all that time and money? What if the real risk is in not investing, and they stay? Low-performing and uninspired. In this episode, Lauren and I chat about how investing in your team can create a powerful internal moat that attracts the right people and drives your business forward. We discuss a recent initiative at Lauren's company in which a team member took the lead to improve an internal process and created an SOP for it. It's a perfect example of why fostering initiative and empowering employees to take ownership can elevate your entire team’s performance. If you're struggling to create that type of culture, this conversation will give you ideas for reevaluating your core values to ensure your team’s alignment and ultimately build a work environment where the best talent thrives. We also explore how these ideas translate into digital marketing, leadership, and managing remote teams effectively.

    Stop Pausing Winning Ads With Meta Andromeda, Kill Conversions Instead - Part 2

    Apply to Work With Tier 11: https://www.tiereleven.com/apply-now Are you still pausing “winning” ads because Meta tells you the CPA is broken? In this episode, we break down the next layer of our three-part series on why turning off Meta’s conversion obsession is the smartest move you can make right now. John Moran walks us through a real case study where individual category campaigns, feeder strategy, and engagement metrics drove an 80% lift in new customers. We unpack why hook rate, CTR, and directional signals matter more than platform-reported conversions, and how Shopify and blended nCAC become the real source of truth. We also connect the dots between Meta and Google in a way most marketers completely miss. You’ll hear how improved Meta creative reduced Google spend by 20% while increasing total new customers by 37%. And if you want proof that Meta is a top-of-funnel growth engine and not an attribution tool, this episode lays it out step by step. In This Episode: - Why you should not pause winning ads - Hook rate & outbound CTR benchmarks - Example of benchmarking with nCAC - Amazon, Google, and Meta sales overlap - Case study: Meta’s impact on Google results Mentioned in the Episode: Previous Episodes On Why You Should Not Pause Ads: https://www.youtube.com/@perpetual_traffic Tier 11’s nCAC: https://www.tiereleven.com/ncac Tier 11’s Data Suite: https://www.tiereleven.com/what-we-do/data-suite Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/perpetual-traffic/id1022441491 Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/59lhtIWHw1XXsRmT5HBAuK Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@perpetual_traffic?sub_confirmation=1 We Appreciate Your Support!

    Stop Pausing Winning Ads With Meta Andromeda, Kill Conversions Instead - Part 1

    Apply to Work With Tier 11: https://www.tiereleven.com/apply-now CPAs look awful, so you pause the ads, and then revenue drops across channels. That’s not you. That’s the new reality of Meta Andromeda and the GEM-style ecosystem where “underperformers” can be the very ads feeding your whole business. John Moran is back to help us break down why cost per result and conversion columns can completely derail your decision-making. We walk through a real example where shifting spend away from a core set of ads didn’t just hurt Meta; it dragged down Amazon, Google, and everything else. Stick around to learn how we analyze ads by spend, identify themes the market is responding to, and only layer in conversion data after we’ve found the real winners. In This Episode: - Why you should stop pausing “underperforming” ads - Case study: analyzing active ads differently - How spending shifts affect performance across channels - Using ad spend instead of conversions to find winning ads - Real-life example of using spend to analyze ads - CPA and conversion data challenges Mentioned in the Episode: Previous Episode On Why Meta Is The Best Ad Platform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRnglXjlwMo Partner With Our Meta Ads Experts: https://www.tiereleven.com/apply Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/perpetual-traffic/id1022441491 Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/59lhtIWHw1XXsRmT5HBAuK Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@perpetual_traffic?sub_confirmation=1 We Appreciate Your Support!

    The Singular Fatal Mistake Service Businesses Make with Opt-Ins, MQLs & SQLs

    Are you drowning your leads with follow-up after follow-up? It’s a mistake many service-based businesses make, thinking more is better.

Lauren shares an in-depth example from one of her clients who was generating tons of leads but only achieving a 5% booking rate. We explore why this happens and how you can fix it.  From the crucial need for accurate data tracking to the importance of defining a "qualified lead," we outline the tweaks to your sales funnel that will boost lead conversions and significantly reduce your marketing spend.

    The Little-Known AI Creative Research Tactic to Hack Meta Andromeda

    Stop using AI like Google for market research. Here is an easy, done-for-you marketing research prompt to help you draft Meta ads that convert: https://www.tiereleven.com/prompt Are you still guessing what your market wants and calling it “creative testing”? That’s the fastest way to burn your budget in 2026. If your ads aren’t resonating, it’s probably not the algorithm. It’s your research. Most marketers skip the hardest part and wonder why creative diversification never works. In this episode, Cole Turner from Tier 11 breaks down a smarter way to do market research using AI. We walk you through a live demo showing how a multi-step prompting process compresses weeks of manual research into minutes. The real unlock isn’t the tool; it’s how you structure prompts to extract real voice-of-customer data, emotional triggers, and problem-aware insights that actually drive clicks, leads, and sales. We wrap by showing how to turn that research into ads, scripts, and landing pages that don’t sound like AI fluff. You’ll hear exactly how we use this internally before launching Meta campaigns, and why “garbage in, garbage out” is an accurate statement. In This Episode: - Why creative research still matters - ChatGPT market research framework - Turning research output into ads - When multiple ChatGPT prompts are necessary - How to access and use the market research prompt - Final advice on AI prompting Mentioned in the Episode: Previous Episode With Cole Turner: https://perpetualtraffic.com/podcast/episode-747-the-1-mistake-thats-secretly-killing-your-meta-andromeda-ads-with-cole-turner/ Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel: Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/perpetual-traffic/id1022441491 Follow and listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/59lhtIWHw1XXsRmT5HBAuK Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@perpetual_traffic?sub_confirmation=1 We Appreciate Your Support!
