PPC Ponderings Podcast

Season 2 - In the next season of the PPC Ponderings Podcast, we're talking to people we don't know... but who know PPC! Kirk loves chatting with new friends, and we wanted to share his conversations with the world as it pertains to PPC knowledge. Our objective is to have short interviews with smart people so we can get you one super tactical thing per episode you can change in your PPC process today. Season 1 - While many PPC Podcasts are in interview format, we'll be taking more of an investigative look at key themes in the world of Digital Advertising in our Core episodes. Episodes will be split into Core episodes with a journalistic approach and production, and Bonus episodes with an interview format of the experts used in each Core episode. Taken from the chapters of Kirk Williams' (PPCKirk) book: Ponderings of a PPC Professional, much has already shifted in the PPC landscape, and we'll interview smart PPCers and dig into themes in a fresh way to give you an insightful and interesting look at the changing world of PPC Marketing.
