💸🔥 Burning Money for Growth? 🔥💸 In a dramatic twist of history, Pablo Escobar once burned $2 million to keep his daughter warm. While his actions were extreme, they draw a stark parallel to how companies today are 'burning money' in marketplace advertising. In the relentless pursuit of growth and market dominance, many businesses find themselves pouring vast sums into advertising efforts. The intent is to boost visibility and capture market share, but are these investments always strategic? Much like Escobar's gesture of desperation, not all ad spend yields the desired warmth of ROI. It's crucial for companies to evaluate their strategies, ensuring that their advertising spend is heating up growth rather than going up in flames. 🌐 Key Takeaways: Evaluate ROI: Regularly assess the return on your advertising investments. Strategic Spending: Allocate budget towards channels that provide measurable growth. Innovative Approaches: Consider out-of-the-box marketing strategies that may offer better cost efficiency. Let's make sure our advertising dollars are creating value, not just smoke. 🔥💰 If you are interested in the best practices for successful marketplace ads, feel free to send me a message. #MarketingStrategy #Advertising #ROI #BusinessGrowth #MarketplaceAds

In my marketing studies, I've delved into the complexities of promotional pricing and its impact on a company's bottom line. Through chapter readings, lectures, and assignments, I've gained valuable insights into tools like #breakevenanalysis, which are crucial for assessing the effectiveness of such promotions. ⛳️ Rock Bottom Golf's Father's Day promotion serves as a compelling case study. By offering a $100 discount on drivers, they significantly reduce their #marginperunit, but this strategic move aims to generate excitement and urgency among customers, potentially leading to increased sales volume. 🏌️♂️ Break-even analysis helps us determine how many additional units Rock Bottom needs to sell to offset the #fixedcost of the promotion (banner ads in this case). In this scenario, they need to sell approximately 188 additional drivers to recover the $15,000 spent on advertising. 📊 This exercise underscores the importance of considering both #margin and #salesvolume when evaluating promotional strategies. Marketers must carefully weigh the trade-off between short-term profit reduction and potential long-term customer acquisition and brand loyalty. 🏆 Tserennyam SukhbaatarTutehau Hunkin

Our biggest weakness right now is the rise and cost of acquisition. We started selling last June, and in order to achieve the conversions, we relied heavily on paid advertising. Although it worked for us, we have seen an increased rise in our total CPA. On top of that, our core offer's margins are not where I would like them to be. Essentially we are battling acquisition costs while battling to try and increase margin. Not the recipe for success. What are we doing and what have we learned? First of all, we experienced the seasonality of our business first hand. Not having the experience in the past, it was hard to make decisions without the data to back it up. We actually increased our ad spend during the winter/spring time in hope's to withstand the seasonality lull. My naivety did not know what to expect. Next year, what if we cut back in total ad spend and allocated resources to bridal expo's, strategic partnerships, our community building? True brand building. The other thing we will do? Introduce new product/services to our store with healthier margins (80%+) At the end of the day, the lessons and struggles we face allow us to learn and grow faster. I'm a firm believer of learning the first time it happens and correcting it so it doesn't again. #growth #building #ecommerce #entrepreneurship

Just a few questions I asked the 45 dealers I visited this week in the #ConnecticutMarket Do you want to reach #multiculturalConsumers? What are you doing to tap into the in-market shopper and expose the inventory you need to push? How are you building out Media and Creative? Are your old age units boosting on Social? Do your website banners match your current incentives? Is this 2022/2023 model running on your VLA’s? Constellation can support your dealership's entire full-funnel strategy by: 1.) Building awareness- within your market space and driving the right vin-specific unit to the in-market consumer. That they are looking for and not a random unit that doesn't have their interest. 2.) Consideration- Provide a full view of your current inventory and drill down on the model focus units you need to move. By putting the unit right in front of the in-market shopper. 3/4.) Full Go To Market Intent- Driving the in-market shopper to your website, and landing pages. Providing them a path to call, set an appointment, and drive the lot. #Constellation #NBCUSpotOn #WhyAreYouRunningVLAS

If you gave me £1 and I gave you back £132, would you do it? …well that’s exactly what I done for Jordan! Except it was 250 times more. From spending £250, to generating £33,000, and counting, in 2 weeks!! That’s 132x ROI, sounds crazy right? Our system is trialled and tested, and this makes it proven. Want to know how we done it?
