Episode Description from the Publisher

Most people think paid ads are only for getting customers. But some of our best hires, around 15 of them, came from ads too. In her debut episode, Ashley sits down with Marianne Ewanouski, the head paid ads coach at Paid Ads Academy. Marianne runs every ad platform for the company (Facebook, Instagram, Google, YouTube, TikTok, Spotify, and the new ChatGPT ads) and coaches clients from zero revenue all the way to eight figures. She dreamed of Mad Men style advertising, fell in love with paid search instead, and found PAA through an Instagram hiring ad she applied to within 24 hours. In this episode, they break down: ๐Ÿ’ผ What hiring ads are, and how PAA grew to eight figures with 15+ hires and no recruiter ๐Ÿ’ผ How to run hiring ads on Google, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Facebook/Instagram (and why each platform is set up differently) ๐Ÿ’ผ Why every ad points to one careers page hub, built around real core values and a video application ๐Ÿ’ผ The qualify and disqualify trick that keeps you from paying for the wrong clicks ๐Ÿ’ผ Two mistakes Marianne sees on coaching calls: low-intent keywords and burying your credibility You'll walk away seeing paid ads as more than a customer channel. They are how you find the people who help build your business. ๐Ÿ† Join the Challenge: Win With Paid Ads Challenge ๐ŸŽฏ Connect with Ashley: @ads.with.ashley ๐Ÿ“˜ Read the Book: How to Win With Paid Ads
