Why Your Marketing Isn’t Working (And What Actually Does) w/ Michael Trkolta
In this episode of Inside Marketing with MarketSurge, Reed Hansen sits down with Michael Trkolta, Managing Director of Web Oracle, to break down why most marketing strategies fail—and what actually drives consistent growth.
With over 20 years of experience (and a past life as a professional tennis player), Michael shares how discipline, fundamentals, and clarity separate businesses that grow from those that stay stuck.
If your marketing feels chaotic, expensive, or just not working—this episode is your wake-up call.
What You’ll Learn:
• Why most businesses are wasting time and budget on the wrong tactics
• The real role of AI in marketing (and what NOT to trust)
• How to build a marketing system instead of chasing campaigns
• Why your website might be hurting your conversions
• The difference between traffic and actual revenue
Key Takeaways:
• Clarity beats complexity
• Marketing is a system, not a campaign
• AI gets you 80% there, but still needs human verification
• Strong foundations matter more than flashy tactics
• More traffic doesn’t always mean more revenue
