    #111: Laura Webster, Criminal Defense Lawyer, Scaled to $82K Months with Paid Ads

    If you think paid ads won't work for lawyers… this episode might change your mind. In this client spotlight, Ashley sits down with Laura Wester, criminal defense Lawyer and owner of Laura Wester Law in the Atlanta area. Laura practices criminal defense, DUI, serious traffic cases, protective orders, and driver's license issues. Before this year, she was starting from complete ground zero when it came to advertising. Fast forward to now? She just had an $82,000 month. She generated so many inbound calls from ads that she had to hire an answering service. And she temporarily turned her ads off because the volume was that high. In this episode, we break down: ✨ The test campaign that brought in high-quality local leads ✨ What happens when even a C-level ad strategy creates serious volume ✨ How learning ads gave her peace of mind beyond referrals ✨ Why advertising allows her to be selective about the cases she takes ✨ The mindset shift every business owner needs Laura shares what it was like learning ads from scratch, navigating tech, tracking, and why sticking with it became her proudest accomplishment of the year. If you're relying only on referrals, if you think your industry is "different," or if you've been putting off learning about ads because it feels overwhelming, Laura's story is your proof that it can work.

    #110: The uncomfortable truths about refunds

    This episode is an honest conversation about why I almost never ask for refunds, and how that single habit has shaped the kind of buyer, leader, and business owner I have become. Why? The way you buy doesn't stop at the transaction. It quietly influences how you show up, what you tolerate, and the kind of people you attract into your business. In this episode, Ashley explores the deeper patterns behind refunds, commitment, and discomfort, and why those patterns often repeat on both sides of the sale. In this episode, she breaks down: 💰 How your buying behavior mirrors the clients you attract 💰 The common pattern behind refund requests she's seen over time 💰 Why discomfort is often mistaken for failure 💰 How buyer identity quietly shapes confidence and leadership Be the buyer you want to attract. Everything else tends to fall into place. Connect with Ashley: @ads.with.ashley Join the Challenge: Win With Paid Ads Challenge Read the Book: How to Win With Paid Ads

    If you own a short-term rental and your entire strategy is hoping Airbnb or VRBO sends you bookings, this episode will completely change how you think about your property.

    #105: How YouTube Uses Search History In Targeting Ads

    YouTube ads are not just video ads. They are intent, behavior, content, and data layered together. In this episode, Ashley explains why YouTube works so well when it's done correctly, and why most people struggle when they treat it like a button-pushing platform. Ashley breaks down how YouTube utilizes Google data, including search behavior, website visits, app usage, and video watch history, to target people who are already paying attention. You're not guessing who might be interested. You're meeting people who are already thinking about buying. This is why YouTube ads feel "psychic" when done right. In this episode, she breaks down: 🎯 Why YouTube ads work differently than social ads 🎯 How Google data powers YouTube targeting 🎯 The 6 YouTube targeting types and when to use each one 🎯 How to reach people who are already mid-decision 🎯 The difference between skippable and non-skippable ads 🎯 CPM vs CPV and why YouTube lets you buy attention Connect with Ashley: @ads.with.ashley Join the Challenge: Win With Paid Ads Challenge Read the Book: How to Win With Paid Ads

    #104: How Google, Meta & TikTok Algorithms Actually Work

    Most people think the algorithm is working against them… until they realize it's only responding to the signals they're giving it. In this episode, Ashley breaks down how the Google, Meta (Facebook & Instagram), and TikTok ad algorithms actually work, and why fighting the algorithm is the fastest way to waste money. The algorithm doesn't judge your ads or "hate" your account; it simply follows patterns, data, and behavior. She explains why success with paid ads isn't about tricks or hacks, but about training the algorithm with clear signals, clean tracking, strong messaging, and enough volume to learn. You'll learn: ⚡️ How ad algorithms really learn and optimize ⚡️ Why bad tracking and weak signals confuse delivery ⚡️ Why your messaging is your targeting ⚡️ How low budgets starve campaigns and stall results ⚡️ What the learning phase actually means (and why it's normal) ⚡️ The key differences between Google, Meta, and TikTok algorithms If you've ever felt stuck in the learning phase, frustrated with inconsistent results, or convinced the algorithm was broken, this episode will completely change how you approach paid ads.  Connect with Ashley: @ads.with.ashley Join the Challenge: Win With Paid Ads Challenge Read the Book: How to Win With Paid Ads
