You can now exclude existing customers from PMax. Game changer. Before: inflated ROAS from warm audiences Now: real new customer acquisition Do this: • Exclude past buyers + visitors • Split prospecting vs retention • Track new customer CPA Growth ≠ recycled revenue. #ProteanDigital #GoogleAds

There’s no “perfect” Google vs Meta split. It depends on: → Product → Demand → Stage Start 60/40 → test 60 days → shift budget to the winner. Brands that optimize mix (not follow...

You’re resetting the learning phase and killing performance. ✅ Let Google/Meta learn 1–2 weeks ✅ Minor tweaks: negative keywords, <10% bid changes ❌ Major changes: big budget shifts, targeting changes, pausing campaigns #ProteanDigital #GoogleAds #MetaAds #PaidSocial
If your agency needs days to answer basic performance questions… They’re not managing your account daily. Real operators already know the numbers. #ProteanDigital #PaidAdsStrategy #AgencyLife #EcommerceGrowth
Advantage+ Shopping = Meta’s version of PMax. Great for scaling. Not for testing. Works best with: → 30+ conversions/day → $100+ budget → Strong creatives Use manual campaigns first. Then layer ASC to scale. Automation ≠ strategy. #ProteanDigital #MetaAds #PaidAds
Google Ads isn’t media buying anymore. It’s signal interpretation. Clean data = better performance Bad data = amplified mistakes Fix your inputs. #ProteanDigital #GoogleAds #Ecommerce #Marketing
You spent $85 acquiring a customer… then go silent for 3 months. That’s where profit leaks. Fix it: → Post-purchase ads → Email + SMS + retargeting → 120-day nurture system 40–55% vs 15–25% repurchase rate. Retention > acquisition. #ProteanDigital #LTV #PaidAds
Your December ad budget should be 2–3x your January budget. Why? Holiday traffic costs more, but conversion rates rise even faster. Typical Q4 pattern: • CPM ↑ 30–70% • CVR ↑ 25–50% Result: Better scaling opportunities. Plan budgets 90 days ahead. #ProteanDigital #EcommerceGrowth #PaidAds
Meta CPMs spiked 24–66% in Q4 2025. High CPM ≠ bad. Focus on: • CTR (creative quality) • CVR (offer & landing page) • Cost per acquisition Stop obsessing over CPM, it’s just one input. #ProteanDigital #MetaAds #PaidSocial #AdOptimization
Blended CAC hides channel performance. Blended = total spend ÷ customers. $50K → 500 = $100 CAC. But channel CAC reveals: Search $75, Meta $133, Email $50, Shopping $200. Blended looks fine, channels show reality. Email/Search scale, Shopping cut. Better decisions +40–60% (2025 PSG).
Optimizing for gross margin instead of contribution margin can cost 30–40% profit. Set Google Ads conversion value rules on contribution margin, not gross margin. Like, Comment, Share, & Follow for more. #ProteanDigital #EcommerceProfit #MarketingStrategy #GoogleAdsOptimization
Mobile = 78% of traffic But converts half as well as a desktop. You’re paying the same CPC. Fix mobile CVR → unlock profit. #ProteanDigital #EcommerceGrowth #CRO #Marketing
Donald Trump approved the sale of 500,000 AI chips to the UAE just a few months after an UAE royal bought a 49% stake in Trump's crypto company. Is this sh*t legal? No, no, and HELL no.

I'm very grumpy, tired and frustrated. Our boiler broke when we were in Thailand last year and was patched up but we needed a new one. So we went eco and ordered a heat pump. It's very loud, we have no hot water or heating for five days and currently no water at all.

Today, I stood shoulder to shoulder with students from across Ontario to demand the repeal of Ford’s OSAP cuts. This is about more than policy - it’s about whether young people can afford to build a future in this province. We won’t let this government price a generation out of their dreams.
