- 0:00I spent over 122 million dollars on
- 0:02Google Ads to generate my clients over
- 0:0410.2 billion dollars in sales in over
- 0:071,000 different niches. And these are
- 0:10the six Google Ad hacks that I wish I
- 0:12knew sooner. Starting with hack number
- 0:15one. When it comes to Google Ads, most
- 0:17people do it all wrong. They set up
- 0:19their Google Ads campaign, they go into
- 0:21Google Keyword Planner, they populate
- 0:24their campaigns with pretty much all of
- 0:26these irrelevant keywords because they
- 0:28only doing it based on the cost per
- 0:30click. Now, what you must understand is
- 0:32that in any Google Ads campaign that
- 0:34there are 20% of keywords that move 80%
- 0:37of the freight, meaning they get you 80%
- 0:39of the leads, 80% of the ROAS. And what
- 0:42most people don't realize is that the
- 0:4480/20 principle [music] is actually
- 0:46fractal. And what that means in other
- 0:48words is that you get 4% of keywords
- 0:51that drive 64%
- 0:53of the results inside of your campaigns.
- 0:55And if you don't believe me, just look
- 0:57inside your Google Ad campaign right
- 1:00now. Do an export of all of the keywords
- 1:02and you will realize that 20% of your
- 1:04keywords drive 80% of the [music]
- 1:06traffic. And consequently, 4% of the
- 1:09keywords drive 64%
- 1:12of your results. And once you do this
- 1:14exercise, you will see that there is a
- 1:17handful of keywords that I call Coliseum
- 1:20keywords. It is the one keyword that you
- 1:23pretty much can build your entire
- 1:25business around. And this is what all of
- 1:27the pros do. They identify what are the
- 1:30few keywords inside their campaigns and
- 1:32their industries that really is the
- 1:34lever that drives most of the growth for
- 1:36their business. So, instead of running
- 1:38around thinking about how do I get the
- 1:39most amount of traffic for my monthly
- 1:41budget? Instead, you want to look at it
- 1:43through a different lens and think about
- 1:45[music] how do I make the most amount of
- 1:47money from my budget every month. And I
- 1:50realized this early on in my career. I
- 1:52actually cold called a huge insurance
- 1:55company through their call center and it
- 1:57ended up closing them. It was still to
- 1:59this day one of the biggest deals that
- 2:00I've ever closed in my life. And I never
- 2:02forget logging into their campaign and
- 2:05seeing that there was a few keywords in
- 2:06there, like the word life insurance,
- 2:08that was a hundred and eighty-two
- 2:11dollars a click. And this company was
- 2:13spending around two million dollars a
- 2:15month on this single keyword alone.
- 2:18After running their campaign for over
- 2:20six months, we identified that the word
- 2:23life insurance was driving 64%
- 2:27of their results. And we found out that
- 2:29while we obviously needed to have a
- 2:30whole bunch of other keywords [music] in
- 2:32the campaign, unless we were performing
- 2:34very, very well for that one keyword,
- 2:36our sales and our leads would suffer
- 2:38dramatically. So, the way that you want
- 2:40to be thinking about your coliseum
- 2:41keywords for your own business is
- 2:43transactional [music]
- 2:44keywords. I.E. keywords that have a lot
- 2:47of intent behind them. Don't look at
- 2:49them at just based on how much search
- 2:51volume that they get, or on basically
- 2:53how much they cost to get that as a
- 2:55click. Instead, you want to put yourself
- 2:57in the shoes of the buyer and think
- 2:59about when you're looking at every
- 3:01single keyword on that list, do I think,
- 3:03using my discretion, [music] that
- 3:05somebody typing that would be looking to
- 3:07buy my service? For instance, if you're
- 3:09an accountant and you're in New York
- 3:11City, going for the word accountant,
- 3:13that's a single keyword, it's going to
- 3:14get a shitload of volume, the CPCs will
- 3:17be cheaper, because there's not much
- 3:19purchase intent behind it. Instead, if
- 3:21you were going over bookkeeping
- 3:23accountant New York City, there is more
- 3:25queries in that, the CPC is going to be
- 3:27higher, but there's going to be a lot
- 3:29more buyer intent behind that. And you
- 3:30want to make sure that a vast majority
- 3:33of your budget is only focused on
- 3:35keywords that [music] have a high
- 3:37transaction ratio. So, this is how to
- 3:39apply this in your business. If you're
- 3:40running Google Ads right now, go into
- 3:42your Ads Manager, export all of your ad
- 3:45spend by keywords, and add all the
- 3:47additional columns on there, whether
- 3:48it's cost per lead or ROAS, and get that
- 3:51number, feed it into Clawed, and
- 3:53basically say which of the keywords are
- 3:56driving 80% of the results. And then it
- 3:58will give you the list of keywords, and
- 4:00then you're going to find out that
- 4:01there's probably four or five keywords
- 4:03in your ad account that are literally
- 4:05driving 64% of your results. And I'm
- 4:07going to tell you in a moment exactly
- 4:09what you want to do with those four to
- 4:11five keywords. And that is hack number
- 4:13one, coliseum keywords. And this isn't
- 4:17theory, I'm not some armchair expert, so
- 4:19this is literally the stuff that I use
- 4:21to go from cold calling businesses in my
- 4:24bedroom making $150 a day to then taking
- 4:27that money, investing it into ads and
- 4:29traffic and Google Ads, and it
- 4:31ultimately landed me a seat on Shark
- 4:33Tank. So now you know exactly how to
- 4:35find the most valuable keywords in your
- 4:37market. Now I'm going to show you how to
- 4:39actually write ads that grab your
- 4:41prospects by the throat and demand their
- 4:43attention, which brings us to hack
- 4:46number two. So when it comes to Google
- 4:48Ads, 2% of advertisers literally get 50%
- 4:52of the traffic. And half of all Google
- 4:54searches result in the user not clicking
- 4:57on any ad at all. And the reason that
- 4:59that is is that most people's ads are
- 5:02limp, boring, and vanilla. And what you
- 5:05will notice very, very quickly [music]
- 5:06is that everybody does the same
- 5:09They just take that keyword, they stick
- 5:11it as the opening headline, and then
- 5:12they write a limp description, and then
- 5:14they're kind of done. Or they commit the
- 5:16worst cardinal sin of all, and they try
- 5:19to sell people their product or service
- 5:21from the ad itself. People can't buy
- 5:23from your ad, so why try to sell it?
- 5:26Instead, what your ad must be doing is
- 5:28simply selling the click. You must load
- 5:31up your ad with a huge benefit. Yes, you
- 5:33must include the keyword, but there must
- 5:35be a level of intrigue. Intrigue and
- 5:38curiosity is one of the most powerful
- 5:40human emotions that exist, and all we're
- 5:42trying to do is to steal the vast
- 5:45majority of people's attention on that
- 5:47Google search page to get them [music]
- 5:49to click to our ad. So, the way that we
- 5:51do that is by understanding what's
- 5:53behind the [music] click. When you use
- 5:54Google, you use it because you're
- 5:56searching for information. But, most
- 5:58people, they don't think about that when
- 6:00they're writing their ads. They think,
- 6:01"Well, this is an advertisement, so I
- 6:03must sell my thing." But, what people
- 6:04want is information. So, we must promise
- 6:06them from the ad itself that they are
- 6:08going to get the information that it is
- 6:09that they're looking for by clicking on
- 6:11our ads. Sounds pretty elementary, but
- 6:13you'll be absolutely surprised with how
- 6:15many people ignore this basic
- 6:17fundamental. So, how do you write a good
- 6:19Google ad? Well, first of all, we don't
- 6:22sit down with a blank piece of paper and
- 6:24try to come up with a great ad. That is
- 6:26what amateurs do. What we do is we do
- 6:28something called the Halo strategy. We
- 6:30take your Coliseum keyword and we jump
- 6:33onto Google. And we start looking around
- 6:35in forums, on Quora, on Reddit. And we
- 6:38start to populate the Halo strategy
- 6:40worksheet that has all of their hopes,
- 6:42fears, pains, and dreams. We don't want
- 6:45to guess what our market wants. We want
- 6:47to enter a conversation that is already
- 6:49taking place in their mind. And then I
- 6:51want you to open up your Google Ads
- 6:53Builder. And I want you to completely
- 6:55unleash hell. I want you to write as
- 6:58many headlines as you possibly can. And
- 7:00then I want you to whittle it down to
- 7:02the 20 best headlines of all. And the
- 7:04way that we think about headlines on
- 7:06Google Ads, we first must deliver on the
- 7:08click. We want to take our Coliseum
- 7:10keyword and we do need to more often
- 7:12than not include that somewhere in the
- 7:14ad. So, let's say that you're a divorce
- 7:16lawyer. You jump on the Google, you type
- 7:17it in, you can see four ads that come up
- 7:19on the screen. Divorce lawyers in
- 7:21Lilydale, professional divorce lawyers,
- 7:23separation experts. Like, they've all
- 7:25got the keyword directly at the start of
- 7:28the ad. Instead, what we want to do is
- 7:30we want to sell the click. Somebody that
- 7:32is typing in divorce lawyers, they have
- 7:34got questions that they need answers to.
- 7:36So, what we're going to do is going to
- 7:37go around in all these forums, look at
- 7:39all these divorce books. We're going to
- 7:40do all of the hard gruntwork to find out
- 7:43the emotionally charged ad copy that we
- 7:46can put together that is going to make
- 7:47it next to impossible for somebody not
- 7:50to click our ad. So, check this out. A
- 7:52top divorce lawyer's secret checklist
- 7:55finally revealed. 22 tip-offs your
- 7:58husband may be cheating on you. Nine
- 8:00foolproof ways to discover if your
- 8:02husband is hiding money. This is really
- 8:05understanding the psychology of that
- 8:07marketplace. If you go around and you
- 8:09look at online, you'll find out that
- 8:11most divorces happen because there is
- 8:14some infidelity happening within the
- 8:16marriage. And then you can see who are
- 8:18the people that mostly are searching for
- 8:20divorce lawyers, you'll see that there
- 8:22is a skew towards women. That's why we
- 8:24use the husband line on there. So, it's
- 8:26really understanding the market to write
- 8:28an ad that is irresistible for people
- 8:30not to go out and actually find the
- 8:32answers to these questions that we're
- 8:34posing to them. And especially when
- 8:35you're competing with all the
- 8:36advertisers that are all doing the same
- 8:38thing, you got to zig while everybody
- 8:40else zags. And this is how you get
- 8:42disproportionate returns from every
- 8:44dollar that you spend. You can come up
- 8:46with endless ads that literally come
- 8:49into any market and wipe the floor with
- 8:51the competition by just applying just a
- 8:53little bit of creativity. And that is
- 8:55hack number two. Sell the click. And if
- 8:58you're enjoying this, you're getting
- 9:00value out of it, make sure that you are
- 9:02subscribed cuz your boy is going to be
- 9:03dropping way more sauce in the coming
- 9:06weeks. So, when it comes to actually
- 9:08bidding on these keywords, what most
- 9:10people do is they just hand the keys to
- 9:12Google and they let this thing run
- 9:14rampant and just ding ding ding on your
- 9:16credit card. So, instead, let me show
- 9:18you exactly what I would do if I had a
- 9:20samurai sword to my neck and I would be
- 9:23beheaded unless my Google Ads campaign
- 9:26was profitable. Which brings us to hack
- 9:28number three. So, when it comes to
- 9:30building out Google Ads campaigns,
- 9:31there's typically two different
- 9:33approaches. One approach is what I call
- 9:35the fishing [music] trawler approach.
- 9:36Where there's a fishing trawler, They
- 9:37cast out a big net and they run them all
- 9:40in there and then over time they
- 9:42basically throw out the fish that they
- 9:43don't want. AKA the keywords [music]
- 9:46that are unprofitable for them. It
- 9:47sounds okay, but it is a very costly
- 9:50exercise because you need to buy all the
- 9:52data and you end up spending a huge
- 9:55amount of money on clicks that were
- 9:57never going to be profitable for you in
- 9:58the first place. And the next way is
- 10:00what I call the knife to the neck
- 10:02approach. And it's if you had a knife to
- 10:04your neck, this was your last $2,000 and
- 10:07this campaign absolutely positively had
- 10:10to work, otherwise you would be
- 10:11beheaded. And this is exactly what I
- 10:13recommend that you do. Is you sit down
- 10:15and you look at your [music] Coliseum
- 10:17keywords and you scrutinize every
- 10:19keyword on there and you say, "What is
- 10:21the nature of that click? What do I
- 10:23think that someone would be looking for
- 10:25when they do [music] search that?" Does
- 10:26it have a high transactional intent
- 10:29behind it? And if the answer is no, it
- 10:31doesn't make it on our list. So, we're
- 10:33going to populate our ad campaign only
- 10:35with those keywords. And every single
- 10:37day we're going to log in and we're
- 10:39going to see, are we hitting our daily
- 10:41budget based on these keywords? [music]
- 10:43And if we're not, we're going to keep on
- 10:44increasing our bid by 10 to 20% per day
- 10:47until our ad is guaranteed to be at the
- 10:50top of the page and we are spending our
- 10:52budget. And if we still do that exercise
- 10:54and we still [music] haven't hit our
- 10:55budget, only then are we going to start
- 10:58adding other keywords in until we hit
- 11:01our daily budget. This way you're really
- 11:04controlling that your ads show up for
- 11:06and you can be way more intentional. And
- 11:08then every single day you want to look
- 11:10at what are the keywords that are
- 11:12hitting KPI or aren't hitting KPI. And
- 11:14the KPI for you will [music] either be
- 11:16cost per lead or ROAS. And then over
- 11:19time, like a bonsai tree, we want to
- 11:21trim and prune this thing where we're
- 11:23removing keywords that aren't getting us
- 11:25the results so the keywords that we do
- 11:27have in there are getting more budget
- 11:28and then the results just compound and
- 11:30get better and better [music] over time.
- 11:31So, here's how to specifically apply
- 11:33this for your own business. Every single
- 11:35day, try to identify five keywords that
- 11:37have high transactional intent you can
- 11:39add to your campaigns. Then, you want to
- 11:41look for about 15 to 20 negative
- 11:44keywords, meaning you do not want your
- 11:46ads showing for these keywords, and add
- 11:48these to your campaigns. So that over
- 11:50time, you're spending 10 to 20 minutes
- 11:53per day in refining and trimming this
- 11:55bonsai tree, and basically making sure
- 11:58that you are spending more money on the
- 12:00things that are working and less money
- 12:02on the things that aren't working. And
- 12:04that's how you drive profitability
- 12:05long-term. And that is hack number
- 12:07three, the bonsai tree. Okay, so that's
- 12:10how you make sure that your campaigns
- 12:11are profitable. But now, let me show you
- 12:13the dirty little secret on why I bid as
- 12:17high as humanly possible on my most
- 12:20valuable keywords, which brings us to
- 12:22hack number four. Most people think
- 12:25their job is done once their ads are
- 12:27showing up on page one. They do a little
- 12:29bit of hygiene check as they do a couple
- 12:30of Google searches. Yeah, there my ads
- 12:32are. Look, look, there I am at position
- 12:34three, I'm at position four. This is an
- 12:36amateur move, because Google's own stats
- 12:38show that position one in the ads is
- 12:41double the amount of traffic from
- 12:43position number four. And that first ad
- 12:46literally steals 70 to 80% of all the
- 12:50clicks on the ads. So, think about that,
- 12:52right? You are literally able to grab
- 12:55the lion's share and market share of all
- 12:57the traffic by ensuring that you are
- 12:59paying one position number one. So, what
- 13:02we are going to do is we are going to
- 13:03find out not one of the cheapest leads,
- 13:05but not one of the cheapest clicks, but
- 13:07what are the leads that drive the most
- 13:10revenue for our business. So, you can
- 13:12set this up with a tracking platform
- 13:14like Wicked Reports or Hiros or a whole
- 13:17slew of other tracking reports, where
- 13:19effectively we get the actual data of
- 13:23what leads came into our business and
- 13:25what keywords they actually searched for
- 13:27to become a lead. And then what you want
- 13:29to do is you want to jump into your ads
- 13:31manager and you want to see what your
- 13:33search impression share is for that
- 13:35[music] keyword. All search impression
- 13:37share is is the amount of share that you
- 13:39are taking up when people do those
- 13:41searches. So let's just say that you
- 13:43have a 50% impression share, that means
- 13:45if 10 people were to jump onto Google
- 13:47and search for that keyword, your ad
- 13:49would only show up five out of 10 times.
- 13:51[music] And what I have found from
- 13:53spending hundreds of millions of dollars
- 13:55on Google Ads is the sweet spot of where
- 13:57you want to be operating is between 80
- 13:59[music] and 85% impression share.
- 14:02Because when it comes to positions of
- 14:04the ads, the results aren't linear, they
- 14:06compound. You want to make sure that you
- 14:08are literally taking the lion's share of
- 14:11your marketplace by bidding the most
- 14:13aggressively. [music] So after we've
- 14:15achieved this for our Coliseum keywords
- 14:17and we've got an 85% in search
- 14:19impression share, we've kept on
- 14:20increasing our budget and there's no
- 14:22more traffic to buy for those keywords,
- 14:25that's where we start to add other
- 14:26keywords on that might have less intent
- 14:29behind them, but are going to ultimately
- 14:31fuel our strategy and also drive more
- 14:34traffic over time. But the thing that
- 14:35you want to make sure that more so than
- 14:37anything is that 80% of your budget are
- 14:40going to those Coliseum keywords that
- 14:43you know have the highest LTV. You don't
- 14:45want to treat all keywords equally.
- 14:47[music]
- 14:48So I recommend splitting up your budget
- 14:50and having 80% in a campaign with just
- 14:53your Coliseum keywords and then the
- 14:55other 20% for all of these keywords that
- 14:57go a little bit further outside [music]
- 14:59from the bull's-eye and might be a
- 15:01little bit more informational, a little
- 15:03bit more research-based queries and not
- 15:05so much transactional queries. So let's
- 15:08wrap all this up into the action steps
- 15:10and how you can deploy this right now in
- 15:12your business. You want to go through
- 15:14and make sure that for your top four to
- 15:16five Coliseum keywords that you have an
- 15:1980 to 85% impression share for them.
- 15:21Keep on increasing the bids until you
- 15:23achieve this. And the only way that you
- 15:25can do this is if you have the data to
- 15:27do it. So then, block out a 1-hour
- 15:29meeting with yourself on the first
- 15:31Monday of every single month, sit down,
- 15:34look at all the sales that you did in
- 15:36your company, and then have on that also
- 15:38all the keywords that those people
- 15:40specifically typed in in order to become
- 15:44a lead, and then make sure that your
- 15:45media buyers know, "Yo, yo, yo. Spend
- 15:48[music] 80% of our budget on these
- 15:51keywords cuz they brought us the [music]
- 15:53biggest, fattest, juiciest clients each
- 15:55and every month." And that is hack
- 15:57number four, position number one or
- 16:00nothing. And now look, the moment that
- 16:02you do this and your ad account starts
- 16:04printing money, a little ding, ding,
- 16:06ding is going to go off in the fine
- 16:08headquarters of Google, and the Google
- 16:10reps are going to start calling you. And
- 16:12they're going to tell you certain things
- 16:14to activate in your ad account that is
- 16:16going to burn your profit margins to the
- 16:18ground. So, I'm going to tell you
- 16:19exactly what to do when that phone
- 16:22starts ringing, which brings us to hack
- 16:25number five. So, every single month
- 16:27you're going to be getting emails and
- 16:28you're going to be getting calls from
- 16:29the fine folks over at Google. And
- 16:32they're going to call you up and say,
- 16:33"Hey, Sabri, I was just looking at your
- 16:35account here, and I can see that you
- 16:36don't have these features turned on, and
- 16:38you don't have PMAX on, and you don't
- 16:39have AI max, and you don't have all of
- 16:41these little whistles added onto your ad
- 16:42account that you should really add
- 16:44because you're missing out on all this
- 16:45traffic." Then you're going to be
- 16:47tempted. You're going to be like, "This
- 16:48is Google. They're calling me. They're
- 16:50telling me these are the things I need
- 16:51to do in my ad account. Surely they have
- 16:54my best interest at heart." And then you
- 16:55do those changes to your ad account, and
- 16:58lo and behold, you spend a lot more
- 17:00money, but you don't make a lot more
- 17:02money. You don't get a lot more leads,
- 17:03but you do get a bigger bill at the end
- 17:06of every single month. And you see, the
- 17:08fine folks at Google, they have
- 17:10commission based on the amount of
- 17:12features that you have enabled in your
- 17:15account that you must hit. They want to
- 17:17learn on your money. They want you to
- 17:19enable all of the features so that they
- 17:21can see what is working and what isn't.
- 17:22So, we are going to ignore their calls.
- 17:25We are going to block their numbers. We
- 17:27are not going to listen to their advice
- 17:29cuz the most advanced thing that you can
- 17:31do is to do the fundamentals and that's
- 17:34exactly what I have been giving you in
- 17:36this video so far. And how do I know
- 17:38this? How do I know that this is the
- 17:41case? Cuz I've been lured into this
- 17:43many, many times. And I say, "Hey, this
- 17:45sounds great and I can count on one hand
- 17:49the times that these things have
- 17:50actually [music] worked. And even when
- 17:52they do work, they are not mega needle
- 17:55movers. They haven't geometrically
- 17:56changed my business. [music] So,
- 17:58instead, I learned the hard way. I spent
- 18:01all the money. I have the battle scars
- 18:03to prove it and now I just focus on the
- 18:05fundamentals. Do I have the best ads?
- 18:07[music] Are those ads the most relevant
- 18:10to the landing pages that I'm sending
- 18:11them to? Do I do all the tracking that I
- 18:13need to do know exactly what are the
- 18:15keywords that are making the most money?
- 18:17Am I spending 80% of my budget on those
- 18:19keywords? And I repeat that [music]
- 18:21cycle. And do not be tempted by shiny
- 18:23object syndrome. I keep to the
- 18:26fundamentals. So, the way that you can
- 18:27specifically apply this to your business
- 18:30right away is by having the auto apply
- 18:33recommendation off, to have Google's
- 18:35number blocked in your phone so you do
- 18:37not get tempted to pick it up and to try
- 18:40any of these features and you say to
- 18:41yourself, "I'm not going to do anything
- 18:43else until I know what my four to five
- 18:46Coliseum keywords are and until they are
- 18:48spending 80% of my budget and I [music]
- 18:50have a dedicated landing page for every
- 18:52single one of them, then I will start to
- 18:54experiment." And the key rule is that
- 18:57you don't roll out any new features
- 18:59until you are spending your entire
- 19:02budget, you have 85% search impression
- 19:05share. So, you're mainly focused on
- 19:07search. At the end of the day, their
- 19:09core product is search and that's what
- 19:11remains [music] to be the most
- 19:12profitable thing on Google. And that is
- 19:14hack number five. Do not take the
- 19:17[music] reps' call. So, you've protected
- 19:19your account from the Google rep. You
- 19:21are page one, position one for your most
- 19:24valuable keywords. Now, it is time to
- 19:27break the legs of your competition in
- 19:30front of the eyes of your prospect,
- 19:32which brings us to the sixth and final
- 19:35hack. So, on Google, you can actually
- 19:37bid on your competitors' brand names.
- 19:39Now, it's a little bit of a dirty thing.
- 19:41People don't really like to talk about
- 19:42it. Everyone does it, but everyone does
- 19:45it the wrong way, cuz they are lazy
- 19:48marketers. And what they do is they take
- 19:50their landing pages, and they just go,
- 19:52"Oh, like there's 100, there's 2,000,
- 19:54there's 5,000 searches for this biggest
- 19:57competitor in my marketplace. Let me
- 19:58build a competitor ad group, add my
- 20:00competitors' brand names in there, and
- 20:03then basically send that traffic to my
- 20:04landing [music] page." Look, you are
- 20:06going to get traffic. You are going to
- 20:08get leads. You are going to get sales
- 20:10for a result of it. But, more often than
- 20:11not, these are the least profitable
- 20:14parts of most people's campaigns. It's
- 20:16cuz they do it in the shitty, lazy way.
- 20:18Instead, if you haven't already been
- 20:21picking up what I'm putting down, we're
- 20:22going to do things the hard way, but the
- 20:24right way, so we can have more dineros
- 20:26in our bank account each and every
- 20:28month. So, what I want you to do is I
- 20:29want you to highlight the five to 10
- 20:31biggest competitors in your market. I
- 20:33want you to populate their brand names
- 20:35into Google Keyword Planner. That's
- 20:37going to show you the amount of searches
- 20:39that those competitors get. And that's
- 20:40going to tell you which are the ones
- 20:42that are getting the most traffic, and
- 20:43they're going to get most of the
- 20:44attention when we're building out our
- 20:46ads. And instead of just having a basic
- 20:48landing page that gets all of the
- 20:50traffic from our whole campaign, and
- 20:51setting our competitor campaigns, we're
- 20:53going to be building specific ads that
- 20:56again kick the bruised knee of our
- 20:59prospect. They're searching for a
- 21:00competitor, we want to put a seed of
- 21:02doubt in their mind, and get them to
- 21:04click through to our landing page. And
- 21:05then what we are going to do is we're
- 21:07going to have a dedicated landing page
- 21:09for each and every competitor that we're
- 21:11going up against, and we want to say all
- 21:13the pros and cons of doing business with
- 21:15us and doing business with them. We
- 21:17don't want to leave it by chance. We
- 21:19don't want to just hijack their traffic.
- 21:21We want to break the legs of this
- 21:23competitor in front of the eyes of the
- 21:25prospect. [music] So they know
- 21:27unequivocally,
- 21:28100%, we are the business to do business
- 21:32with. And the reason that this works is
- 21:33that people are naturally going to be
- 21:35comparing other people. It's very rare
- 21:37that if you're selling something that's
- 21:39expensive, that somebody is just going
- 21:41to come through, do a Google search, and
- 21:43do business with you, and not get
- 21:45comparative quotes. [music] But
- 21:46depending on where you are in the world,
- 21:48it is actually illegal to include that
- 21:50competitor's brand name in your [music]
- 21:52ad if their brand name is trademarked,
- 21:55which most people are. So you need to
- 21:56get a little bit creative with the way
- 21:59that [music] you actually still get
- 22:00clicks, but don't mention their name.
- 22:02You can bid on their brand name, you
- 22:04just can't in the ad itself. [music] So
- 22:06there are a few ways to do that. A great
- 22:08way is to get a second opinion, or I
- 22:10suggest that you see this before hiring
- 22:13them. It doesn't name them, but it
- 22:15brings up enough curiosity to make them
- 22:17want to come through and check you out.
- 22:19And this isn't the case in every market,
- 22:21but you want to check this out so you
- 22:22don't get in any hot water. Then once
- 22:24they arrive on the landing page, this is
- 22:26when you want to do all the selling that
- 22:28needs to be done. I'm talking about
- 22:29comparative tables showing the
- 22:31differences, the pros and the cons. I
- 22:33don't like on competition. I
- 22:36like building myself up and showing all
- 22:39the proof elements of why people should
- 22:40do business with me, more so than why
- 22:42they shouldn't do business with the
- 22:44other person. Depending on how
- 22:45aggressive that you want to be, you can
- 22:47go very hard in the paint here. Here's
- 22:49how to apply this specifically for your
- 22:50business in your industry. I want you to
- 22:52find three of your biggest competitors,
- 22:54and make sure that they are also the
- 22:56ones that are getting the most amount of
- 22:58search traffic. Then what I want you to
- 23:00do is to build three dedicated landing
- 23:02pages specifically addressing your
- 23:05service offering versus the competition.
- 23:07If you want to get sneaky, you can talk
- 23:09about prices, you can bring out reviews,
- 23:11you can do all of that kind of stuff,
- 23:13depending on how hard that you want to
- 23:14go. Then I want you to shave off 5 to
- 23:1610% of your overall search budget on
- 23:18going on bidding on your competitor's
- 23:20brand names and scoop up all those
- 23:22low-lying cherries that are out there in
- 23:24the orchard. And that is hack number
- 23:26six, break their legs. So, everything
- 23:29that I've shared with you in this video
- 23:31is the fundamentals. And the most
- 23:33advanced thing that you can do is to
- 23:34follow the fundamentals. Make sure that
- 23:36you master these things before mucking
- 23:38around with P-Max or A-Max or any of
- 23:41these fringe features. [music] And if
- 23:43you're wondering, "Sabri, you're on
- 23:44Shark Tank, you're making all these
- 23:45millions. Why are you giving us all the
- 23:47sauce? Why are you producing all of this
- 23:49content?" Well, I made a promise to
- 23:51myself. I was raised by a single-parent
- 23:53mother. I was raised in a house with not
- 23:55an abundance of money. And I said, "If I
- 23:57ever make it, I am going to do
- 23:59everything in my power to put out
- 24:01content to help people [music] not
- 24:03experience that pain." And my way of
- 24:05doing that is by making this content and
- 24:07sending the elevator back down to you
- 24:10guys that are just on the come up. And
- 24:12so, if this content can change just one
- 24:14person's life that is out there watching
- 24:17it, all the efforts, all the content
- 24:18that I put out is worth every single
- 24:21second that I spend [music] doing it.
- 24:22And if you liked this video, you're
- 24:24going to absolutely love this one that I
- 24:26put together on how to become
- 24:27disgustingly good at digital marketing.
- 24:30Like, subscribe, and I'll see you in
- 24:32[music] the next one.
