We work with over 300 clients that run Meta ads. So, needless to say we are often fielding the questions "Is Meta down?" or "Is anyone else's ads slow today?". 

In this episode, Josh and Dylan discuss all things surrounding Meta Outages. What to do when there is one, how to know if there is one, how often they happen, and will you ever recover from an outage? 

Often, Meta Outages can cost a lot of money, cause a lot of confusion, and leave you questioning if your ads broke or if it's a fluke. This episode will answer all those questions and more.

The word "scale" gets used so much that I think it's wise to take a step back and think through what it looks like in REAL life terms for most businesses who aren't the "wild success stories." 

Don't ask HOW to scale, but WHEN to scale.

Because sometimes, it's best to do the brutal, boring work that's required to set a stronger foundation for those moments when you DO want to push the pedal to to the floor and go as fast as your supply can handle.

If you're feeling beat up and in a "slow season", listen to this episode.

If you walked into Shark Tank, there are three pretty common questions you'd get asked. Most people know the answer to TWO of them: what are your sales? What is your profit?

But most can't answer: what's the cost to acquire a customer?

In the marketing world, the acronym for this is CAC. (Cost to Acquire a Customer)

Every successful business obsesses over this number and does so on two primary levels: "blended" and by marketing channel.

In this episode, Josh dives into what CAC is and a little exercise to determine what yours should be, based on your business model.

By knowing this information, you can pour on the marketing gasoline, so long as you're in your "Target CAC" range!

The goal of entrepreneurship is to be able to buy back your time. That's probably part of the reason you started your business -- to create financial freedom to do what you want, but if you got that and you were a slave to your business time-wise, it probably wouldn't be enjoyable.

That's why, in this episode, Josh breaks down how to determine what's worth hiring someone for, when to do it, and the first 5 positions he believes you should fill.
