It's sort of shocking how few people understand that ROAS ≠ growth.
I discussed this, and more, on The Innovation Agency Podcast this week.

So proud of Jenna Vaccaro, my colleague (and friend!) of 17 years (!!), for her awesome talk this week at State of Search 2025 in Dallas.
Jenna, you continue to raise the bar.

ROAS is a trap.
The real “green light” to scale ads is when your market proves you right, not when a ROAS dashboard makes you feel good.
That’s what I told @MischaZvegintzov on the Table Rush Talk Show.

I was a guest on "Let's Talk Marketing," hosted by Katya Allison. Over nearly an hour we covered:
My philosophy around making ROI your definition of efficiency; Our data-Scientist-backed work helping us understand how different marketing channels impact each other; the importance of setting clear customer acquisition goals; Life work balance, and hopefully setting an example for my son.

I did Gina Gardinder's radio show - 2 million listeners -and she asked me to name the common denominator to my failures. And maybe some of the wins, too :)

A Manhattan private school apparently “suddenly collapsed.”
No, it didn’t.
Schools keep telling me “We have a $1M shortfall” & “Our board won’t let us fail.” I would submit to you that both things are unlikely to be simultaneously true.
Anyway, this drives me nuts because it's preventable.

Tripled sales!
90-ft billboards in Manhattan!!
A clever nod to male cosmetic surgery that made people look twice!!!

THIS CAMPAIGN WAS SO MUCH FUN.
A $700K brand wants to be $5M by 2030?
First thing I ask is “How much of that growth is supposed to come from new customers?”
That answer > any pitch deck.
I talked about this (and my old favorite, "how to not efficient yourself out of business!") on the @WeLiveToBuild podcast.

The Culinary Institute of America Leadership Awards took place last night, raising more than $1 million in scholarship funds in support of CIA student Impact. It's always a fun night.
My interview with the The Daily Grind podcast just dropped.
Ad testing, AI, & how to build creative that actually works.
Also: caffeine, fiction, Howard Stern, and my mantra
"Left foot. Right foot. Keep walking."

Rowan College's Winter enrollment is up 3X.
We cracked the code with behavioral research, sharper creative, smarter timing (and a better product didn't hurt).
Proud of our Higher Ed team at @MasonInteractive for leading the charge.
