Are You Actually Ready to Run Paid Ads? Here's How to Know

Ep.144 - Most businesses don't fail at paid advertising because they picked the wrong platform. They fail because they weren't ready when they launched. In this episode of Endless Customers, Alex Winter sits down with Tanner Holman, paid social strategist on the Swell team at IMPACT, for an honest conversation about what it actually takes to make paid ads work.
