Written by yours truly. This is definitely one of the top 10 questions I get asked when it comes to @GoogleAds campaigns.

[St. Gregory @St_GregoryGroup]

We’ve managed SEM campaigns for over a decade, & a question we get asked over & over is “should I bid on my brand name?” Here are 6 reasons our answer is almost always a resounding "YES!" https://t.co/0uw4mknbw7 #DigitalMarketing

@jordangodbey Well, the goal is to be “happier.” The lessons weren’t terribly long, & there were easy action items each step of the way. I also noticed a small (but noticeable) improvement in my own happiness level early on, which I’m sure acted as positive reinforcement & kept me going.

Are we all just Veruca Salt?

Eric Enge (@stonetemple) at #pubcon says 53% of mobile sites are abandoned if they take longer than 3 seconds to load... yet the average mobile page takes 15.3 seconds to load.

So what we're demanding isn't reality... or at least not the norm.

When I asked my algebra teacher when I would ever need this math in the "real" world, apparently an appropriate answer would have been for figuring out how long it'll take #Google to crawl your site!🤦‍♀️

@jaltucher 1824 election where Andrew Jackson, John Quincy Adams, Henry Clay and William Crawford were the main contenders. Also 1912 when Roosevelt formed his own party (bull moose party) to take on republicans and democrats.

@johncrenshaw 💯%. In my experience just being reliable (doing what you say you’re going to do when you say you’re going to do it) makes a huge difference.

[Alex Webb @AlexInMarketing]

@Ayotheauthor Yep. 🤦‍♀️ = me for or the last 75 minutes. I feel like I’m watching a bad reality TV show. In about 5 minutes they’ll start flashing a number on the bottom of the screen & telling you to text in your vote for America’s Next Top Politician.

@semrush Pros: Things (ex copy / landing page offers) can be tested quickly, results (ROI) can be achieved quickly, you have more control over when/where/how your website shows up.
Cons: It can be costly and that cost isn’t stable.
