Struggling to generate a meaningful return from Google Ads?
You are not alone.
In this episode, CJ Moneyway sits down with John Horn, CEO of StubGroup, a digital advertising agency specializing in paid media management, Google Ads optimization, account suspension recovery, and advertising compliance.
According to John, StubGroup has helped more than 2,000 clients generate over $400 million in revenue by navigating the complexities of pay-per-click advertising and creating campaigns focused on measurable business results.
John explains why many paid advertising campaigns fail, how poor targeting and weak conversion tracking can drain marketing budgets, and why hiring the least expensive advertising provider can create greater costs over time.
CJ and John also examine one of the most stressful challenges advertisers face: Google Ads account suspensions. John shares why accounts are suspended, the mistakes businesses commonly make when appealing, and how advertisers can build more compliant and resilient campaigns.
