Your daily Google News.
Kasim:I'm Kassam and I'm here with Michael Naline.
Kasim:Michael, always a pleasure mate.
Kasim:It's great to be back.
Kasim:I love speaking to you.
Kasim:The Google ads, God.
Kasim:I'm gonna quote you on that forever.
Kasim:This is our second interview, so that means that people liked you and we
Kasim:could tolerate each other's presence.
Kasim:no, like, last time I was actually quite surprised.
Kasim:I thought I actually had to listen back last time.
Kasim:I'm like, oh, we actually spoke about some good stuff.
Kasim:And then the response I actually got from people, I just realized I'm
Kasim:getting a lot of glare in my glasses.
Kasim:I got hundreds of people adding me on LinkedIn just from that interview.
Kasim:Had like really positive response.
Kasim:So I think like people enjoyed it.
Kasim:And I just wanna make sure that when we have our chat today, we
Kasim:just kind of like really throw Adam bottom of like value to them.
Kasim:So get ready guys.
Kasim:This is gonna be good.
Kasim:Yeah.
Kasim:So the last video, if you didn't see it check it out.
Kasim:I'll make sure to include it in the description of this video.
Kasim:That one had 3,100 views.
Kasim:Mm-hmm.
Kasim:Which is a lot for my channel.
Kasim:Like, I think if I get a thousand views on a video, I
Kasim:know that I did something right.
Kasim:So that one obviously popped off pretty well.
Kasim:I did promote it a bit.
Kasim:I just posted a few times on LinkedIn and on Instagram, so I think I got
Kasim:a bit of you were most audience.
Kasim:Yeah, my audience to have a look at it, mate.
Kasim:but I'll, say that you've got a pretty big channel now.
Kasim:You're nearly a.
Kasim:10 K, which is, yeah, we're about to fucking amazing.
Kasim:Good work, man.
Kasim:I mean, for a niche like ours, that's not a, I didn't know if we would quite make it
Kasim:that far, but I'm pretty happy about it.
Kasim:Right.
Kasim:You're posting regularly, you're posting like really high quality.
Kasim:In terms of content videos, like I know I watch them regularly.
Kasim:All the other Google ADSD specialists always come to your videos for like,
Kasim:It's the most up-to-date stuff because a lot of the stuff in the market now
Kasim:being at trainings is very antiquated because it's based on stuff that was
Kasim:working a year ago, two years ago, and like a lot of those gurus aren't actually
Kasim:up to date or still running an agency.
Kasim:So they're still talking about tactics and strategies from like
Kasim:five or 10 years ago, which.
Kasim:To an extent kind of work.
Kasim:But if you're up against killers like you and me, you've got, yeah, you fucked.
Kasim:Sorry about my language.
Kasim:That's kinda the thing too, is like it really got to a point to where, I
Kasim:mean, you used to be able to run your own Google ads two years ago for sure.
Kasim:Mm-hmm.
Kasim:And then, it started to just narrow down and narrow down and narrow down.
Kasim:And then I look at what's involved from a strategy perspective.
Kasim:technical implementation, put it aside, so, Just from a strategy perspective,
Kasim:I think it's damn near impossible.
Kasim:And I've always been afraid to say that because I own an agency, so I
Kasim:never wanted to tell people like, oh, you can't do this yourself.
Kasim:I actually wanted to be the opposite.
Kasim:I wanted to say, Hey, you can do this yourself.
Kasim:Here's how.
Kasim:Mm-hmm.
Kasim:And then once you get past a certain point, come hire me.
Kasim:But now I'm kind of like, I don't even think you should do this yourself.
Kasim:Right?
Kasim:Like, this is too hard.
Kasim:I was, I was reflecting on this yesterday just because of especially
Kasim:the changes in the market.
Kasim:And I actually took a note.
Kasim:I just wanna say like, Google Ads has an extremely low margin for error, right?
Kasim:And is unforgiving, like you make one small change, you've
Kasim:spent thousands of dollars.
Kasim:And especially like on some of the clients that you and I manage, like
Kasim:bigger clients, you make a small keyword issue like change the match
Kasim:for some reason, or the settings off.
Kasim:You could spend five, 10 K on nothing.
Kasim:And if you're not on that like a hawk or you don't have like tracking or
Kasim:dashboards to really be on top of that.
Kasim:You cooked and like, I sent you a few ideas of things we could chat about.
Kasim:Like I hit up a few mates.
Kasim:Agency owners, marketing managers before this, and most of 'em were
Kasim:saying like, what are the biggest mistakes you see in an account?
Kasim:now it's like, well, everything, because if you're not like a really sophisticated
Kasim:Google Ads advertiser, you are not gonna know all the small things and all
Kasim:the small things that, the stuff that you talk about or the stuff that, you
Kasim:know, our agencies actually implement.
Kasim:Like, people go, oh, what are the things I need to do?
Kasim:And it's like, dude, it's asking a surgeon like, what do you need to do?
Kasim:It's like, there's so many small things that, , everyone's looking for the big
Kasim:thing, but there's like a hundred small things and you mess one up, and that's.
Kasim:Everything gone.
Kasim:So like there is such a low margin for error I've noticed, which I'm
Kasim:presuming you agree with as well.
Kasim:I was on a sales call this morning with a gal.
Kasim:Hopefully she never watches this video because I flat out turned down her work.
Kasim:I don't end up on a lot of those calls, but this one Mike, who runs our,
Kasim:customer intake, he was kind of on the fence and he was like, Hey man, can
Kasim:you just, come up, give a heart check?
Kasim:And the first thing she says to me, or one of the first things is, Hey,
Kasim:if I hire you, I wanna know that you're not gonna make any mistakes.
Kasim:And I was like, no, I'm gonna make all the mistakes.
Kasim:I'm just gonna make 'em more efficiently than you are.
Kasim:but those folks that really wanna know like, oh, you're gonna do
Kasim:this perfectly the first time.
Kasim:No, that's not how Google ads works.
Kasim:Like, I'm not gonna make technical errors, but we don't know until we test.
Kasim:no matter how many times I say that , I mean, I feel like I'm a broken record,
Kasim:you know, like, oh, you have to test.
Kasim:There's no guarantees, whatever.
Kasim:But then I end up on the phone with someone who's like, oh,
Kasim:I've watched all your videos.
Kasim:How long is this gonna take?
Kasim:And I'm like, well clearly you haven't watched any of
Kasim:my videos cuz I have no idea.
Kasim:there's an issue there that if you really could do that, you'd be a billionaire.
Kasim:You'd have every climber world, and you've said that so many times, I'd
Kasim:laughing and you'd be like, I knew that I'd be a much wealthier human.
Kasim:I wouldn't be like, and you'd be running a business that wasn't advertising.
Kasim:But the other, like, the other part of that is, is people are being marketed with
Kasim:like the proven strategy, this and this.
Kasim:Like everything's gonna work.
Kasim:So then when actually come to an expert and an industry leader like
Kasim:yourself, They expect to get that.
Kasim:Like you to be like, yeah, it's gonna work.
Kasim:But like then you're honest with them.
Kasim:It's like going to like the top surgeons, I keep saying surgeons cuz it's relevant
Kasim:and like you've got like a horrible something basically with surgery.
Kasim:And then they would never say to be surgery in rocket science.
Kasim:Yeah.
Kasim:Like they would never say to you, yeah, yeah, this will be a hundred
Kasim:percent work, a hundred percent cure.
Kasim:They know there's like liabilities that come with that.
Kasim:, not even from a marketing perspective, but just like a legal perspective like.
Kasim:There's no way you can ever guarantee it.
Kasim:You can increase the odds and it's just like, reducing the
Kasim:downside, but there's no guarantee.
Kasim:Cuz if there was, you and I would be billionaires on a boat laughing a lot.
Kasim:Yeah, I do.
Kasim:I'd just be buying businesses and running Google ads for which we also do we've
Kasim:gotten good enough to where it's like, all right, let's go play the equity game.
