Whenever I go to a conference I almost always get sucked into a conversation about how Shirt Agency does online advertising. So in this episode I go over the basics of online advertising by breaking it into 3 difficulty sections:

EASY STUFF-

Facebook Boosts,

Google Search ads.

REQUIRES SOME EFFORT-

Instagram ads,

Video Ads on FB Youtube,

Basic Targeting.

TRYING AS IF IT WAS YOUR JOB-

Pixels,

Re-targeting,

Funnels,

A/b Testing.

I also go over my strategy for creating engaging content and why I hate coupons.

Inspired by the book "Made to Make it" by Ryan Moor we focus on what will make a print shop stand out. We discuss building customer profiles and how best to serve those clients. This leads into building a basic vision for their company Grandline Graphics. Just being a printing company is not enough! Customers need clear messaging to understand why a shop is unique.
