About this episode

This episode discusses the hidden costs associated with chasing cheap leads in advertising.

Cheap leads can look great in Ads Manager, but they may cost more than you think. In this episode, I explain why lead quality matters, how low cost leads can create false confidence, and what to look at beyond cost per lead.
