Learn how to approach paid ads in a way that actually drives results, without wasting budget.
Most small businesses don’t have a traffic problem – they have a conversion and clarity problem. This session will walk through how to approach paid ads (Meta, Google, YouTube) in a way that actually drives results, without wasting budget.
Nick Lavery and Unnati Singhania will break down what’s working right now, where most businesses go wrong, and how to build a simple, effective system you can apply immediately.
You will discover:
- When paid ads make sense (and when they don’t)
- The difference between awareness, traffic, and conversion campaigns
- How to structure campaigns for Meta and Google
- What makes a high-performing ad (creative, messaging, offer)
- Budgeting basics and how to avoid common pitfalls
- How to measure performance without overcomplicating it
Expected outcomes:
- A clear understanding of how paid ads fit into your overall marketing
- A practical framework for launching or improving campaigns
- Confidence in where to spend (and where not to)
- A checklist you can use to evaluate your current or future ads
Seats are limited!
Cost: $20 + tax
