The Truth About When (And Why) Your Ads Investment Might Be Failing You

Ready to stop wasting your hard-earned money on Facebook ads that don't convert? 🚀

If you've ever hired an ads manager hoping they'd magically make your launches profitable (only to be disappointed), you're not alone. As both an ads specialist and a course creator myself, I've seen this heartbreaking scenario play out hundreds of times. The problem isn't your ads manager (usually) and it's definitely not you – it's that we've all been fed dangerous lies about how online course marketing actually works.

In today's episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what's really happening when your ads don't perform, why it's NEVER just about “finding the right audience,” and the critical foundational elements you need in place before investing a single dollar in cold traffic. This is the tough love episode that just might save your next launch!

“Ads can never ever make you money. Hear me when I say this. This is me, the ads manager telling you that ads will never make you money.” ✨

🔥 In This Episode:

  • Discover why throwing more traffic at an underperforming offer is like putting a fire hose in your mouth (and exactly what to do instead)
  • Unpack the critical relationship between audiences, offers, and launch mechanisms that determines your profitability
  • Learn why launching to cold traffic without proven conversion data is basically donating money to Mark Zuckerberg
  • Master the exact sequence for testing and validating your offer before scaling with ads
  • Identify the real metrics you should be tracking to know if your marketing (not just your ads) is working

Pour yourself a comforting cup of tea – this episode might challenge everything you thought you knew about Facebook ads! ☕️
