    Why Your TV Ads Are Getting Ignored

    Send us Fan Mail Most TV ads fail before the customer ever hears the message. Not because the business is bad. Not because TV “doesn’t work.” But because modern audiences are distracted, multitasking, scrolling, cooking dinner, or barely paying attention at all. In this episode, Brandon breaks down two simple tests that can completely change the effectiveness of your broadcast advertising and help your commercials cut through the noise in a world where attention is harder to earn than ever. If you’re spending money on TV, video, or tomorrow marketing campaigns, this conversation will challenge the way you think about what people actually remember… and what they never notice in the first place. #TVAdvertising #BroadcastAdvertising #SmallBusinessMarketing #MarketingStrategy #AdCreative #SmallBusinessGrowth #BusinessGrowth #MavenMonday #MavenMarketingPodcast #FrankAndMaven #MarketingAdvice #MarketingPodcast #Entrepreneurship #SmallBusiness #LocalAdvertising Our Website: https://frankandmaven.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankandmaven TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmaven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/ Host: Brandon Welch Executive Producer: Carter Breaux Audio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera Guy Join the Maven Marketing Mastermind to get actionable advice from the team at mavenmethodtraining.com Do you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

    How they booked $9M of business in 24 hours

    Send us Fan Mail Big results rarely happen in a single moment. They’re earned long before anyone notices. In this episode, Brandon and Caleb unpack a story that sounds almost unbelievable at first: a local business generating massive demand in just one day. But instead of pointing to a shortcut or a lucky break, they walk through what was happening behind the scenes long before that moment ever arrived. This conversation is a reminder that growth doesn’t follow your timeline; it follows patterns, seasons, and consistency. And if you’ve ever questioned whether the steady, often unexciting work is worth it… this one will challenge how you think about timing, patience, and what actually drives big outcomes. If you’re in a season where results feel slow, and you’re tempted to pull back... this episode might reframe everything. #MarketingStrategy #SmallBusinessGrowth #BrandBuilding #ConsistencyWins #BusinessGrowth #LeadGeneration #MarketingThatWorks #EntrepreneurMindset #PlayTheLongGame #CustomerTrust Our Website: https://frankandmaven.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankandmaven TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmaven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/ Host: Brandon Welch Executive Producer: Carter Breaux Audio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera Guy Join the Maven Marketing Mastermind to get actionable advice from the team at mavenmethodtraining.com Do you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

    How to Know For Sure Your Ads Are Working

    Send us Fan Mail Most business owners are looking for the wrong signals. They watch for obvious wins… wait for clear feedback… and assume silence means nothing is happening. But what if that’s exactly backwards? In this episode, Brandon and Caleb challenge one of the biggest misconceptions in advertising, and share a perspective that might make you rethink what “working” actually looks like. If you’ve ever felt unsure, impatient, or tempted to change things too early… this one will hit close to home. Because the signals are there. You just might not be seeing them the right way. #MarketingStrategy #AdvertisingTips #AdCreative #DigitalMarketing #BrandBuilding #MarketingAdvice #SmallBusinessMarketing #AdFatigue #MarketingPodcast #BusinessGrowth Our Website: https://frankandmaven.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankandmaven TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmaven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/ Host: Brandon Welch Executive Producer: Carter Breaux Audio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera Guy Join the Maven Marketing Mastermind to get actionable advice from the team at mavenmethodtraining.com Do you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

    How to Get More Clients You LOVE

    Send us Fan Mail If you’ve ever looked at your calendar and thought, “I don’t want to deal with that client today…” this conversation is for you. Not all growth feels the same. Some customers energize your team, strengthen your culture, and make the work better. Others… just aren’t quite the right fit. In this episode, Brandon and Caleb explore a simple but powerful idea: who you work with shapes everything. If your business is growing but things feel heavier than they should… If you’ve ever wondered how to create more consistency, clarity, and alignment… This Maven Monday will challenge how you think about saying yes—and why the businesses that grow best aren’t the ones that take everything… but the ones that choose carefully. #BusinessGrowth #Entrepreneurship #ClientExperience #MarketingStrategy #SmallBusiness #Leadership #BusinessTips #CompanyCulture #EntrepreneurLife #MarketingPodcast Our Website: https://frankandmaven.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankandmaven TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmaven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/ Host: Brandon Welch Executive Producer: Carter Breaux Audio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera Guy Join the Maven Marketing Mastermind to get actionable advice from the team at mavenmethodtraining.com Do you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

    How Often Should You Change Your Ads?

    Send us Fan Mail If your ads feel stale… It’s easy to assume people are just ignoring you. So you switch it up. New creative. New message. New campaign. But what if the problem isn’t your ad… it’s when you’re changing it? In this Maven Monday episode, Brandon and Caleb break down one of the most misunderstood questions in marketing: how often should you actually change your ads? And more importantly, what happens when you change them too soon… or not soon enough. Because the truth is, most business owners don’t have an ad problem; they have a timing and repetition problem. If you’ve ever wondered: “Are people tired of my ads?” “Am I running this too long?” “Or did I pull it too early?” This episode will help you think about advertising the right way, so you stop guessing and start getting more out of every dollar you spend. #MarketingStrategy #AdvertisingTips #AdCreative #DigitalMarketing #BrandBuilding #MarketingAdvice #SmallBusinessMarketing #AdFatigue #MarketingPodcast #BusinessGrowth Our Website: https://frankandmaven.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankandmaven TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmaven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/ Host: Brandon Welch Executive Producer: Carter Breaux Audio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera Guy Join the Maven Marketing Mastermind to get actionable advice from the team at mavenmethodtraining.com Do you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

    A Dad’s Performance Review

    Send us Fan Mail What if you asked your kids how you’re doing… and actually listened? In this special Maven Monday episode, Brandon sits down with his most honest critic (and most important audience) for a conversation that has nothing to do with marketing and everything to do with what actually matters. Because behind every growing business, every late night, and every big goal… there are people at home experiencing the version of you that’s left over. This episode is a reminder that success isn’t just measured in revenue or growth. It’s measured in how you show up when the workday is over. It’s a little different. A little more personal. And maybe exactly what you didn’t know you needed to hear this week. Because the most important feedback you’ll ever get… probably isn’t coming from your customers. #Leadership #Fatherhood #WorkLifeBalance #EntrepreneurLife #SmallBusiness #FamilyFirst #PersonalGrowth #BusinessOwner #LifeLessons #MavenMarketingPodcast Our Website: https://frankandmaven.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankandmaven TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmaven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/ Host: Brandon Welch Co-Host: Anna Welch Executive Producer: Carter Breaux Audio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera Guy Join the Maven Marketing Mastermind to get actionable advice from the team at mavenmethodtraining.com Do you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

    Why You’re Getting Bad Applicants

    Send us Fan Mail You post the job. The applications come in. But the people raising their hands just don’t feel like the right fit. If you’ve ever wondered why the talent you’re attracting doesn’t match the company you’re trying to build, this episode will challenge the way you think about recruiting. In this Maven Monday conversation, Caleb looks at hiring through a different lens—one that most businesses overlook. The way your company shows up in the marketplace doesn’t just influence customers. It quietly shapes the kind of people who want to work for you, too. Because by the time someone finds your job posting, they’ve already formed an opinion about your company… whether you meant to send that signal or not. If you’re growing your team, frustrated with the quality of applicants, or trying to build a workplace that attracts great people naturally, this episode will help you see the hiring process in a completely different way. Sometimes the problem isn’t the job listing. It’s everything that happens before it. #Hiring #Recruiting #TeamBuilding #Leadership #SmallBusiness #CompanyCulture #EmployerBrand #BusinessGrowth #Entrepreneurship #TalentAcquisition #HiringTips #BuildYourTeam #WorkplaceCulture #BusinessLeadership #MavenMarketingPodcast Our Website: https://frankandmaven.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankandmaven TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmaven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/ Host: Caleb Agee Executive Producer: Carter Breaux Audio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera Guy Join the Maven Marketing Mastermind to get actionable advice from the team at mavenmethodtraining.com Do you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?

    Distractions In Disguise: Every Yes Is A No

    Send us Fan Mail They rarely show up looking like distractions. They don’t wave a red flag or present themselves as a problem. Instead, they show up looking sharp (like a new opportunity, a new platform, a new strategy, or a new partnership). And the truth is… most of them aren’t bad ideas. They’re just not the thing that actually moves your business forward. In this Maven Monday episode, Caleb Agee explores a powerful concept from the book Essentialism by Greg McKeown and what it means for leaders and business owners who feel constantly busy but still pulled away from the work that matters most. Inside this episode, you'll learn: How to spot distractions in disguiseUnderstand the hidden cost of saying yesHow to take back control of where your time and energy went If you’ve ever felt like your calendar is full but your progress feels slow… this episode is for you. Because sometimes the most powerful move you can make in business isn’t doing more. It’s learning when to say no. #Entrepreneurship #BusinessCoaching #Essentialism #Leadership #Productivity #BusinessGrowth #SmallBusiness #SayingNo #MavenMarketingPodcast Purchase your copy of Essentialism by Greg McKeown here: https://www.amazon.com/Essentialism-Planner-90-Day-Guide-Accomplishing/dp/0593578414[…]id=1773153846&s=books&sprefix=essen%2Cstripbooks%2C149&sr=1-2 Our Website: https://frankandmaven.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/frankandmavenmarketing/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/frankandmaven TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@frankandmaven LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/frank-and-maven/ Host: Brandon Welch Executive Producer: Carter Breaux Audio/Video Producer: Nate the Camera Guy Join the Maven Marketing Mastermind to get actionable advice from the team at mavenmethodtraining.com Do you have a marketing problem you'd like us to help solve?
