JAMPACKED PODCAST

We’re diving deep into something every eCommerce brand dreams of: scaling their ads profitably.

Whether you’re running Facebook, Instagram, Google, or even TikTok ads, scaling is a tricky game. Go too fast, and you burn through cash with poor results. Go too slow, and you miss out on massive growth opportunities.

But don’t worry... in this episode, I’ve got a clear, step-by-step approach that will guide you through scaling your ads without sacrificing your profitability. And we’ll also cover a critical part of scaling that’s often overlooked: how to know if you’re actually ready to scale in the first place.

Now this is an episode I recommend grabbing out a notebook or if you’re a “walk and listen” podcaster like me, jotting down things into your phone notes - because this episode is going to be (jam)packed with detailed value.

Today, we’re diving into a game-changer for digital advertisers: Meta’s Advantage+ campaigns.

If you’re an intermediate to advanced marketer ready to take your paid ad strategy to the next level, you’re in for a bite-sized treat.

In this episode, we cover: what Advantage+ campaigns are, how they work, and most importantly? How to use them to scale your business profitably.

We’ll cover everything from the basics to best practices, plus the pros and cons you need to know before jumping in. Spoiler alert: the old-school ways of manual targeting and retargeting? They’re on their way out.

Whether you’re running ads for an e-commerce brand, a B2B service, or scaling something entirely new, this episode has what you need to stay ahead of the curve.

After a bit of a hiatus, it feels SO good to say "Welcome to Season 3 of the Jampacked Podcast!"

I’m your host, Jarrah Brailey, and this season, we’re diving deep into the heart of what truly drives results (and one of my favourtie topics to yap about): paid ads.

This podcast season is for intermediate to advanced marketers who are looking to learn more about what it takes to scale a brand to new heights in 2025.

From Meta and TikTok to Google Ads, we’ll explore the strategies, data, creative techniques, and performance metrics that power today’s most successful campaigns. But we’re not just talking about what works — we’re breaking down why it works, so you can make smarter, data-backed decisions.

Expect clear, actionable insights, calm and analytical episodes, and expert advice to help you navigate the ever-changing world of paid ads. By the end of each episode, you’ll walk away with the tools and knowledge you need to optimise your strategy, elevate your campaigns, and grow your business faster.

Get your note pad (or notes app) ready, this season is juicy...

The highly requested Q&A episode is here!

As of next month, I’ve been in business for six years (wow) and whilst I feel like I’m just getting started… I’ve definitely learnt a lot along the way too.

With things being “easier” on the technical side of things with the help of AI…  our ad creatives have become the biggest lever we can pull when it comes to consistent campaign success. 

Our team has been knee-deep in the world of paid ads for the past six or so years, let me tell you, it's been quite the ride… and a lot of the advice we might’ve given 6 years ago, is no longer 100% true [things change FAST!]. 

However, one thing we have always spoken about and pushed our clients to think outside the box with is their AD CREATIVES. 

At Jampacked, it’s safe to say we live and breathe paid ads and creative strategy. 

So in this episode, we’re feeling generous and sharing 10x ad creative ideas we’ve seen consistently bring in amazing results as well as our top tips for creating scroll-stopping ads in 2024 across Meta and TikTok.

Welcome to the very first episode of Season 2 of the Jampacked Podcast! 

Today, we're unpacking one of my favourite platforms - TikTok. 

We’ve all heard of it, most of us use it, some of us are posting on there, but from what I’m hearing - not many of us are actually seeing much success on there. I’ve scaled multiple TikTok accounts to 5, 10, 20 and 50 thousand + followers and have created multiple viral videos since using the platform as well as made some new friends, and seen opportunities come my way through my TikTok content.

So today, I’m going to be sharing with you 8 things that make a successful TikTok content strategy and what you’ll see us doing for our clients to help them get the most out of the platform.

Rebranding my company this year has been the best thing I’ve ever done for this business, … and not just for the obvious reasons like having a new look and feel that I’m in love with & really proud to share. Rebranding has transformed us from the inside-out; it’s sparked an amazing new energy internally, invigorated our team with a new sense of purpose, made our vision more crystal-clear than ever, attracted top new talent into our team, delighted and excited our existing clients and given us more momentum than ever as a company.

The entire rebranding process has confirmed what I already know to be true in the digital marketing world. And that is.. 

• The power of your brand lies in the story you share. And you are at the core of your story.  
• Fresh, on-trend (but still unique) and bold marketing allows you to cut through the noise on socials. And - bright colours go a loooong way. 
• Sometimes all it takes is a freshen-up to be seen by your ideal market and re-invigorate your team.

I am thrilled to be welcoming my amazing friend, business-big-sister, and the power behind our entire rebrand… Kylie Hannaford, Founder and Creative Director at Three Blocks Left, onto the Jampacked Podcast today.

Kylie was the mastermind behind our entire rebrand and working with her on what we now call Jampacked Agency was the most empowering, exciting and fulfilling experience.

Having been in the design industry for 20 years, Kylie has so much gold advice to offer on rebranding… in today’s episode we discuss why, when, and how to rebrand so that you not only retain your existing customers and brand awareness, but how to do it in a way that invigorates your community, team and most importantly…you.
