Wizard's Roundtable | Marketing Secrets from Wizard of Ads Johnny Molson

Business book publisher Ray Bard says all bestselling books share 4 traits:
1: A Big Idea
2: Nuts and Bolts
3: Entertainment
4: Hope
These 4 elements are applicable to your advertising, also. Nuts and Bolts seems to be the one that most people get right away. A Big Idea often shows up. But, conspicuously missing are Entertainment and Hope.
In this episode of The Wizard’s Roundtable, Chris Maddock and I recap our recent Martinis and Marketing class at Wizard Academy where we spent a good deal of time talking about Hope.

There’s a kind of fraud that comes from lack of transparency from Google and Facebook, a kind of fraud that comes from criminals stealing ad dollars from businesses, and a kind of fraud that could be happening because your digital manager isn’t paying attention. It all adds up to a lot of loss for businesses. In this episode of The Wizard’s Roundtable, we look at the different kinds of mismanagement that can plague your advertising efforts.

While the Wizard's Roundtable was being used for holiday dinners, we thought we would replay one of the most popular videos of 2020.
 
This conversation with Ryan Patrick, Tim Miles, and Johnny Molson is one-part instruction manual for media providers and one-part checklist for businesses.
For businesses, it’s important to understand the kinds of questions you should be getting from your media provider. If they’re not asking these questions, find somebody who will ask you these questions (or find a new media provider).
