Transcript
jon:

The clients that stick with companies are not the ones

jon:

that are generating the leads.

jon:

It's the companies that's generating the most sales.

jon:

Very important distinction, and that's where we like to live,

jon:

is the sales, not the leads.

jon:

Remember what I said earlier, sales dictates your optimizations.

jon:

Leads do not.

jon:

Your CPA does not dictate your organizations you're sales.

jon:

Is remarking delivery to lower cpa?

jon:

Sure.

jon:

Should you crank it up?

jon:

Well, is it actually delivering you sales?

jon:

Yes, but actually like at like one 10th of what my other campaign is doing.

jon:

So then your actual cost per sale is a lot higher now.

jon:

Hey, I'm back . All right, All right, so now we're gonna be talking about after you

jon:

have a quality lead instead of HubSpot, what do you do with it inside of Google?

jon:

Those two things, either one, use it to your own knowledge and simply just

jon:

make optimizations as you see fit.

jon:

But it has largely to do with the size of the campaign or size of the

jon:

account that you should be matching.

jon:

So I'm gonna choose big account now.

jon:

This works especially well with large accounts because a lot of times you're

jon:

not having the full visibility as to the attribution model that you

jon:

chose, for example, like what was the first click, What was the last click?

jon:

What was the remarketing like?

jon:

Where did that lead actually come from?

jon:

Choose your own bidding or attribution model that makes the most amount of sense.

jon:

Attribution model is not for Google, is for you.

jon:

I always like to say that the attribution model to Google doesn't matter.

jon:

It's how you set.

jon:

That matters.

jon:

We've been scaling this account here, as you can see, like crazy.

jon:

been working really, really well.

jon:

And in this last 30 days, I have 12 different campaigns, 150 k in spend.

jon:

So this one, where did the lead come from?

jon:

That's a hard one.

jon:

. That one is very, very difficult, especially when the majority of

jon:

our cost, 87,000 of that one 50.

jon:

So a little bit more than half is coming from Performance Max.

jon:

I have Performance Max.

jon:

I have a dsa, I have a remarketing, I have a brand, I have a general search,

jon:

I have a lot of different campaigns.

jon:

I have a YouTube remarketing, all the good stuff.

jon:

And then different types of YouTube marketing to the non

jon:

convers to the converters.

jon:

It's a long sales cycle.

jon:

It's a $15,000 custom build gas grill.

jon:

Kit essentially made specifically for a person's backyard.

jon:

We're doing lead generation.

jon:

that's all we're counting.

jon:

One thing that's important is when you're counting your conversion actions

jon:

for lead generation, make sure you're counting what you want to be counting.

jon:

So this company here had and I won't say their name out loud, but if

jon:

you know who LP is, you know that they have a lot of here that shows

jon:

conversions that aren't really real.

jon:

Like yeah.

jon:

They spend more than three minutes and more than five minutes.

jon:

Wow.

jon:

Conversions.

jon:

It's junk, we're only counting the convergence.

jon:

That makes sense.

jon:

Who designed their own product and then submitted that

jon:

product requesting for a quote.

jon:

Like, Hey, I'd like to have this built.

jon:

How much would this cost?

jon:

Now, they came in on the ad, that shit said that, their kits

jon:

are starting at eight grand.

jon:

So that's one thing that I'm doing to generate a quality lead is saying,

jon:

Hey, hey, before you even come to our site, you know you're gonna

jon:

click on an $8,000 product, right?

jon:

And I'm like, Yep.

jon:

So perfect.

jon:

I've leaked that hurdle.

jon:

So the ways that you're generating these leads, even if it is like an

jon:

an eCommerce type of lead, it's a.

jon:

Commitment.

jon:

So make sure that you're starting off on the best possible way you can,

jon:

and this is a side point that I'm making, but it's an important side

jon:

point where the leads that you're generating will not be bait and switched.

jon:

Say, Well, that happened.

jon:

Your competitors are doing much better job at explaining prices

jon:

up front most of the time.

jon:

Or there's someone out there that they're gonna start down that journey first.

jon:

And if they start down that journey with them first, you've lost.

jon:

Doesn't matter if they come back two months later, you can't scale that

jon:

strategy of I didn't trick ' make sure that you're least doing lead generation

jon:

the most honest way you possibly can, that's gonna get you the highest close.

jon:

And the highest close rate means clients stick with it.

jon:

The client says, Stick with companies are not the ones

jon:

that are generating the leads.

jon:

It's the companies that's generating the most sales.

jon:

Very important distinction, and that's where we like to live,

jon:

is the sales, not the leads.

jon:

The reason why I bring this up is I have to go back one week so to take

jon:

off this last week here, so I'm just gonna do the third through the 20.

jon:

Cool.

jon:

you'll see here from the third to the 25th, we have 425 leads.

jon:

I'm using data driven, so there's a little bit more leads than this, but

jon:

then you're gonna see another type of conversion action called Quality Lead.

jon:

Now this is an imported lead.

jon:

This is coming from their sales tool.

jon:

This is actually coming from Salesforce.

jon:

They're exporting all the leads with G.

jon:

And we're uploading them, and it's a manual process, so it does kind of

jon:

stick, but this is absolutely worth it if you wanna do it on a basis,

jon:

which means you only have to do this four times a month For $150,000.

jon:

Yeah.

jon:

We'll upload things four times a month.

jon:

that's completely fine because we need to know this.

jon:

But what is this?

jon:

So this is a person that says, I like what you have proposed.

jon:

Let's move forward.

jon:

Let's get started.

jon:

Here's, a down payment, and now let's go through the build out process.

jon:

This is a lead that's gonna close.

jon:

It's gonna take longer than 90 days to actually make this sale.

jon:

Google will only go out 90 days.

jon:

I can't import the sales.

jon:

It's not physically possible.

jon:

Google will only stop counting g cli after 90 days.

jon:

So on the 95th day of like, yes, we got it and we made 15 grand.

jon:

And I try to import that as is up that least too old and

jon:

it's just not gonna count it.

jon:

So I can't see visibility.

jon:

So we have to pick a timeline within whatever the attribution window.

jon:

Preferably 90 days if we're gonna count it post lead generation.

jon:

What do I mean by that?

jon:

So by generate a lead and.

jon:

I need to pick within 30, 60, or 90 days, whatever your conversion

jon:

window is of that, imported leads, whatever that conversion window

jon:

you set, that's your time limit.

jon:

That's it.

jon:

Go as far as you can, which is 90 days.

jon:

If it's past 90 days, you have to point, pick a different point in time

jon:

that is going to show an indication of quality Before you can import that.

jon:

that's the timeline.

jon:

So our best bet was, well, this person already is working

jon:

through the sales process.

jon:

They're going to close, We're building it now.

jon:

We'll count that as a sale.

jon:

We don't know how much the final is.

jon:

we can't get that because there's gonna be little points of what kind of countertops

jon:

and do you want this trim and what color?

jon:

All this stuff's gonna be found out later on.

jon:

quality lead is what we're.

jon:

This is not a glitch.

jon:

I'm interrupting the video you're watching because I need to remind

jon:

you that I'm always looking for people to join our team.

jon:

that I know what I'm talking about.

jon:

If you have questions, comments, concerns, or confessions,

jon:

hit me below in the comments.

jon:

And now back to your regularly scheduled program.

jon:

And the way that we do this is in tools and settings in the conversions area.

jon:

On the left hand side, you're gonna see an area called uploads.

jon:

What we're actually taking, the leads that are being generated in an

jon:

Excel spreadsheet and capturing g.

jon:

What's the conversion action that we made new, The new one called Quality Lead.

jon:

it's not a conversion action that's being counted through TAG or through analytics.

jon:

It's, it's literally just an import through clicks conversion action.

jon:

And then we're just sticking a time on there that this was essentially happened.

jon:

It just has to be after the click.

jon:

It doesn't matter what time it actually happens, it just

jon:

has to be after the click.

jon:

That's all that Google's.

jon:

Gonna need for verification.

jon:

this is simple.

jon:

These are three fields.

jon:

we can make this field up.

jon:

This is what we made.

jon:

The client just needs to have G cli, That's all they need.

jon:

They just need to have the G cli.

jon:

And with that G cli, when we upload 'em we'll populate their attribution

jon:

model where that lead came from, and it'll go right back and say, Hey,

jon:

that quality lead came from this.

jon:

It's perfect.

jon:

it's amazing.

jon:

instead of the conversion action settings here, instead of Google, you can

jon:

actually go and look at the templates.

jon:

And if you look at the template from like, let's just say conversion

jon:

from clicks, which is what we're using, they'll give you Google

jon:

sheet and now you gotta clone this.

jon:

But it's just like, hey, as long as you have a click id, and then what

jon:

you named it and when it happened, You can leave these blank or just take 'em

jon:

out, but you really just need this.

jon:

So they just need pull GDS here and send it to you.

jon:

That's all this takes.

jon:

it's not a difficult, it's time consuming.

jon:

It kind of stinks because you have to do it manually.

jon:

But there is ways to do this automatically.

jon:

It's a little bit more Advanced, you have to have either an SFTP connection or an

jon:

HTTPS connection, and you have to pull from a source that's much more difficult

jon:

than a client just sending you Ted g lids a a But I can see here, what's nice about

jon:

this is I know that I'm trending up.

jon:

We have 58, 48 67.

jon:

I went for 89.

jon:

Then we had one little bit of a dip.

jon:

This is the 4th of July weekend.

jon:

That makes sense.

jon:

70 75.

jon:

The latest one was 76.

jon:

These two are higher because this is actually longer than a one week

jon:

period, but the last one week period between the 22nd and 30 showed 76.

jon:

I already know my account collectively is delivering myself, my client.

jon:

More quality leads.

jon:

Great indication of success.

jon:

Happy client.

jon:

Now, what do we do with it?

jon:

We look at different things so far from the third to the 25th out

jon:

of 425 leads that were generated.

jon:

82 essentially sales.

jon:

Now was this, tell me, Well, at an average of $15,000 per sale, let's pull

jon:

on our handy dandy calculator here.

jon:

Yeah, that worked.

jon:

82 times 15,000, 1.2 million.

jon:

Cool.

jon:

What I spend to get that six nine.

jon:

Very, very happy.

jon:

See why we're scaling . That's some of the reasons why we now 10 x this campaign.

jon:

and just to give you all an understanding the previous year

jon:

when they're running with Google ads with the, with the other agency

jon:

collectively, we have 565 more leads.

jon:

That's why we're scaling is because we can see what's actually happening.

jon:

Now let's, look at some other things.

jon:

Here's a really, really, really, really, really crazy thing that happens

jon:

is your CPA is not indicative of the optimizations you're going to make.

jon:

Remember what I said earlier, sales dictates your optimizations.

jon:

Leads Do not.

jon:

What does that mean?

jon:

My cost per conversion is $162 in performance Max.

jon:

But I have, And who could do quick math in their head?

jon:

I'm, contrary to Popular probably.

jon:

Opinion or belief.

jon:

I'm bad at math.

jon:

82 out of four.

jon:

424.

jon:

What is that?

jon:

A 20%.

jon:

Yep.

jon:

Okay.

jon:

Thank you.

jon:

On car , my human calculator.

jon:

Appreciate that.

jon:

, 20% close rate.

jon:

That's good.

jon:

Now what's a 20% close rate?

jon:

Well, it means that you take your CPA multiply by five.

jon:

That's your cost per close deal.

jon:

Makes sense?

jon:

But a hundred and $62 lead.

jon:

Your discovery remarketing was 1 56.

jon:

That's a bad example.

jon:

Let me go back in time because I've actually started to reduce

jon:

that before when I had a high amount of ad spend in there.

jon:

And I'm just gonna assume that I'm looking at a proper time range.

jon:

So lemme just find this I saw this and stopped it.

jon:

that's why it looks worse now.

jon:

There it is $129 versus 170.

jon:

So remarketing was delivering me 129 versus 176, right?

jon:

That looks better.

jon:

129 is lot of one 70.

jon:

That's $50 cheaper now out of 412 that came in here.

jon:

13 quality leads.

jon:

Remember the other one?

jon:

420 leads.

jon:

There's.

jon:

Out of 420 leads here, there's 13.

jon:

Now we know that this is discovery remarketing.

jon:

However, I also know that they're running a lot of different channels.

jon:

I'm remarketing everybody.

jon:

I'm remarketing their Facebook.

jon:

I'm remarking their, Instagram use, I'm marketing the link

jon:

tree, I'm marketing organic.

jon:

they're doing $50,000 postcard delivery.

jon:

I'm remarking everybody, And I'm using data driven attribution.

jon:

So it should be remarketing also myself and giving me a weight.

jon:

Well, when I started to crank up remarketing, my CPA started to increase.

jon:

My lead quality didn't go anywhere.

jon:

So I already know that this is not where my quality leads are coming from.

jon:

Pax is going through my quality leads.

jon:

out of 415 conversions, 13 of them are good.

jon:

that's a really bad ratio when you're considering 1500 here and three.

jon:

your CPA does not dictate your optimizations, your sales do.

jon:

Is remarking deliver you a lower cpa?

jon:

Sure.

jon:

Should you crank it up?

jon:

Well, Is it actually delivering you sales?

jon:

Yes.

jon:

But actually go at like one 10th of what my other campaign is doing.

jon:

So then your actual cost per sale is a lot higher now than performance max.

jon:

I'm taking the higher CPA to make more sales.
