  • (Part 1) Why ROAS Sucks: The New Marketing Metric Everyone Should Use…But Aren’t

    Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) has been the go-to metric for measuring success in digital advertising, but is it actually holding your business back? In this episode, we break down why traditional ROAS is misleading, how agencies manipulate data to appear successful, and what you should be focusing on instead. John Moran joins the conversation to discuss the metrics that actually drive growth, including Media Efficiency Ratio (MER) and New Customer Acquisition Cost (NCAC). Learn how to shift your marketing strategy to prioritize long-term scalability and profitability, rather than short-term vanity metrics.

Plus, Lauren shares an eye-opening moment from a recent mastermind, telling us just how many high-revenue brands are still dropping the ball on AI-driven customer engagement.

  • Why Your Marketing Tracking Sucks (Even If You Think It Doesn’t) and How to Fix It

    In this episode of Perpetual Traffic, Ralph Burns sits down with Cameron Campbell, a top-tier media buyer at Tier 11, and possibly the only person who can outshine John Moran’s meta expertise—at least in the looks department. Cameron brings the heat, diving deep into why most brands are flying blind with their ad data, and what they should actually be tracking to scale profitably without burning cash.

    He breaks down the real numbers that matter, including NCAC (New Customer Acquisition Cost) and why relying on in-platform ROAS is basically trusting a magic 8-ball to run your business. Cameron also pulls back the curtain on Tier 11’s Data Suite vs. Meta’s Conversions API (CAPI), showing just how much revenue brands are leaving on the table when they don’t have full visibility into their customer journey. Plus, he shares his step-by-step approach to creative testing, scaling without panic, and avoiding the biggest mistakes eComm brands make.

    If you’re running paid media and want to know the difference between profitable scaling and expensive guessing, this is the episode for you. Grab your notepad—this one's packed.
