Flights were booked. The venue was ready. Then came the explosions, security alerts, canceled travel plans, and the kind of uncertainty that forced organizers and attendees to make major decisions with very little time.This isn’t a sensationalized version of the story. KJ gives us an honest look at the pressure, responsibility, and human side of managing a massive international event when circumstances outside anyone’s control change everything.We also discuss how the affiliate marketing community responded. Competitors helped each other, attendees checked on one another, and relationships became stronger because the industry came together when it mattered most.Then we turn our attention toward what’s next.Affiliate World is officially coming to the Americas for the first time with Affiliate World Americas in Cancún, Mexico, on September 7–8, 2026.KJ explains why Cancún was selected, including international connectivity, accommodations, accessibility from the United States and Latin America, and the opportunity to connect affiliate marketers, ecommerce entrepreneurs, networks, advertisers, traffic sources, and technology companies from across the Americas.We also discuss why physically entering a market matters. You can study regulations, compliance requirements, and consumer behavior online—but you gain a completely different understanding when you meet the people doing business in that region.Affiliate World Dubai is also expected to return in 2027, bringing the global affiliate marketing community back to one of its biggest international destinations.Finally, KJ shares practical advice for first-time conference attendees and introverts who want to generate real ROI from events:• Don’t wait for people to approach you• Introduce yourself and ask questions• Attend the networking events• Stay open to unexpected conversations• Focus on building relationships before pitching business• Follow up after the conferenceOne conversation can change the direction of your entire business—but only if you’re willing to start it.AFFILIATE WORLD AMERICAS: CANCÚNSeptember 7–8, 2026Cancún, MexicoMeet 2,000+ attendees from more than 110 countries, hear from leading performance marketers, and connect with advertisers, networks, affiliates, ecommerce operators, and traffic sources from around the world.LEARN MORE AND GET YOUR TICKETS:https://affiliateworldconferences.com/americasPOWERED BY OUR SPONSORS🐐 RINGBA CALL TRACKINGThe GOAT of Pay Per Call.

The difference between “we’re growing” and “we’re building something that lasts” usually comes down to a handful of uncomfortable decisions: who you say yes to, what you refuse to ignore, and how quickly you’re willing to change.In this episode of The LFG Show, we sit down with Travis Prouty, CEO of The Call Gurus, to unpack what it takes to achieve Inc.-recognized growth six years in a row—and what repeatable, sustainable scale really demands.Travis shares his journey from chasing early clients to reaching a point where The Call Gurus turns away most opportunities because the right fit matters more than temporary revenue.We get tactical about scaling a call center from fewer than 100 agents to approximately 1,600–2,000 agents. Travis breaks down hiring, leadership turnover, employee morale, campaign diversification, and building a strong company culture across a major Guadalajara operation and work-from-home teams in multiple countries.If you operate a call center, manage a BPO, buy calls, generate leads, or depend on inbound call tracking and analytics, you’ll immediately recognize the operational decisions and trade-offs behind this level of growth.The bluntest part of the conversation centers on legal risk and compliance. We discuss TCPA exposure, DNC regulations, proper opt-in language, and why “we’ll figure it out later” can wipe out everything you’ve built.Travis explains why investing in experienced attorneys and attending compliance-focused events isn’t unnecessary red tape—it’s a long-term growth strategy that builds trust and makes enterprise buyers more comfortable doing business with you.We also discuss bootstrapping, smarter spending, marriage, raising kids while traveling, avoiding ego-driven decisions, and creating a business that can continue growing without destroying the people behind it.POWERED BY OUR SPONSORS🐐 RINGBA CALL TRACKINGThe GOAT of Pay Per Call.

Most marketers think the money is lost on cold traffic. We disagree.The real leak happens after the click—and as advertising costs continue to rise, that leak can become the entire business.Recorded live from Affiliate World Europe in Budapest, we sit down with Jasin Impiglia of LeadX Pro to discuss what’s working right now in affiliate marketing and media buying—and what operators must change to remain profitable in 2026.Jasin pulls back the curtain on the dating vertical and explains how teams buy traffic across Meta, native advertising, and adult traffic sources. We break down the psychology behind the click, how these funnels move users from initial interest into registrations and paid chats, and why many of these offers attract older men dealing with loneliness and limited offline options.That leads us into a much bigger conversation about responsibility, compliance, and trust. As AI-generated models, deepfakes, and “AI girlfriends” become more realistic, how will everyday users know what—or who—is real?We also go deep into the operator playbook for 2026:• Diversify your traffic sources instead of betting your entire business on one platform• Own your internal tools, tracking, data, and other valuable assets• Stop treating monetization as a one-time event• Turn one click into multiple revenue opportunities• Build smarter funnels, retargeting systems, and long-term follow-up• Create an ecosystem that can survive the next major platform changeWhen competition gets brutal and acquisition costs rise, the businesses that monetize users beyond the first click will have the best chance of bringing their margins back.This conversation was recorded in Budapest at Affiliate World—one of the biggest and most valuable gatherings for affiliate marketers, media buyers, advertisers, ecommerce operators, networks, and traffic sources from around the world.Affiliate World is bringing that same energy to Cancún for the first-ever Affiliate World Americas on September 7–8, 2026.

We sat down with Deividas Tokaris, Founder of Triple Scale, live from Affiliate World in Budapest for a deep conversation on what is actually working in Meta advertising right now—and why the advertisers winning today are treating creative like a measurable production system instead of hoping for one great ad.Meta ads aren't randomly “getting worse.” The platform is changing, competition is increasing, and teams that aren't measuring the right things are getting exposed.One of the biggest metrics Deividas focuses on is something many brands still don't track:CREATIVE WIN RATE.What percentage of the ads your team produces actually become winners?If you don't know that number, it's difficult to manage your creative team, forecast budgets, scale production, or understand whether your real problem is volume, concepts, execution, targeting, or the offer itself.Deividas breaks down how serious advertisers can use creative win rate to make better decisions and explains why successful brands are increasingly operating like media companies.We also get into the myth of the “infinite money glitch.”Buying more traffic isn't enough.Long-term e-commerce growth depends on retention, customer experience, fulfillment, strong offers, post-click execution, and building a business that can actually support the traffic you're paying for.Deividas also shares his journey from selling pizza coupons to becoming a media buyer, eventually helping scale brands to serious revenue—and the lessons that came when rapid growth created entirely new operational problems.Then we zoom out to one of the biggest opportunities many US advertisers overlook:EUROPE.With large audiences, potentially lower CPMs in certain markets, and less competition than some US categories, Europe can offer brands an opportunity to diversify—but localization, market selection, logistics, and understanding each region matter.We also discuss Meta ad account bans, backup plans, platform relationships, and why attending conferences and building real relationships inside the industry can become a competitive advantage.If you're a media buyer, DTC brand owner, affiliate marketer, agency owner, or entrepreneur spending money on Meta, this episode is packed with practical insights on:• Meta Ads• Creative Testing• Creative Win Rate• Facebook & Instagram Advertising• DTC & E-Commerce Growth• Media Buying• Scaling Brands• Retention & Customer Experience• European Markets• Meta Account Redundancy• Product-Market Fit• Knowing When To PivotA huge thank you to KJ Rocker and Affiliate World for partnering with The LFG Show and helping us bring conversations like this directly from some of the biggest stages and events in performance marketing.ABOUT THE LFG SHOWThe LFG Show brings you conversations with top entrepreneurs, marketers, media buyers, investors, operators, and builders who are actually doing the work.We cover affiliate marketing, lead generation, media buying, AI, sales, business growth, investing, entrepreneurship, and the strategies being used by today's top performers.SUBSCRIBE TO THE LFG SHOW:https://www.youtube.com/@TheLFGShow👍 Like the video💬 Comment your biggest takeaway🔔 Subscribe and turn on notifications📲 Share this episode with someone running adsPOWERED BY OUR SPONSORSRINGBARingba is a leading call tracking, routing, analytics, and performance marketing platform for businesses operating in pay-per-call and inbound calls.https://www.ringba.com/ISELLFORYOUiSellForYou provides education, community, resources, and opportunities for entrepreneurs growing in affiliate marketing, lead generation, media buying, AI, sales, and online business.https://isellforyou.com/lfg

Manuel Perez takes the stage at Affiliate Summit East in New York City for a powerful panel hosted by Davis, breaking down one of the biggest differences between making money and actually building a valuable company.A business can generate massive revenue and still be incredibly fragile.In this conversation, Manuel and the panel dig into the gap between affiliate marketing cash flow and true enterprise value—and why a $100M affiliate business can potentially be valued below a $50M software, marketplace, or technology company.The question is simple:**What do you actually own?**Traffic can disappear. Offers can disappear. Buyers can disappear. Platforms can change.But when you start building proprietary distribution, technology, customer relationships, recurring revenue, data, retention, and infrastructure, you're building assets that can dramatically change the value of the company.Manuel walks through the evolution from affiliate marketer to operator and eventually to owner.The conversation covers using AI to scale without unnecessarily bloating headcount, understanding the entire call and conversion funnel instead of simply chasing the cheapest leads, and focusing on buyer value and customer outcomes.Then the conversation moves into an even bigger opportunity:If you're already creating demand every single day, **why not own the supply?**Manuel breaks down the transition into insurance ownership, where the value isn't just in acquiring a customer once—it's in retention, lifetime value, renewals, residual income, customer service, cross-selling, and building a brand customers actually trust.The panel also goes deeper into building at the FMO/IMO level, including software designed to remove bottlenecks around onboarding, compliance, quality assurance, retention, and agent performance.And with AI becoming a true "second brain" for businesses, operators now have the ability to identify patterns, improve performance, and scale smarter than ever before.If you're an affiliate marketer, media buyer, lead generator, call center owner, insurance entrepreneur, or founder trying to build something bigger than monthly cash flow, this episode is packed with lessons on:• Enterprise value• Business valuation multiples• Affiliate marketing• Pay-per-call• Lead generation• AI and automation• Insurance ownership• Customer lifetime value• Retention and renewals• Building recurring revenue• Creating proprietary technology• Turning distribution into an asset• Building a company that could eventually be acquiredThe ultimate goal isn't just making more money today.It's building something that has **defensibility, optionality, recurring value, and an asset somebody else would actually want to own.**THE LFG SHOWThe LFG Show brings you conversations with some of the top entrepreneurs, marketers, investors, media buyers, operators, and top 1% performers in business.We sit down with people who are actually building companies, generating revenue, investing capital, scaling teams, and finding new ways to make money online.If you're interested in entrepreneurship, affiliate marketing, lead generation, media buying, AI, investing, sales, business growth, and learning directly from people operating at the highest level, you're in the right place.SUBSCRIBE TO THE LFG SHOW👍 Like the video💬 Drop your biggest takeaway in the comments🔔 Subscribe and turn on notifications so you don't miss the next episodeAnd send this episode to a founder or entrepreneur who is still optimizing only for cash flow instead of building long-term enterprise value.---## POWERED BY OUR SPONSORSRINGBARingba is the industry-leading call tracking, routing, analytics, and performance marketing platform built for businesses operating in pay-per-call and inbound calls.Track your calls, optimize your campaigns, understand your traffic, route calls intelligently, and use powerful technology and AI to get more value from every conversation.https://www.ringba.com/### ISELLFORYOUiSellForYou provides education, community, resources, and opportunities for entrepreneurs looking to grow in affiliate marketing, lead generation, media buying, AI, sales, and online business.Learn how today's top marketers are building and scaling businesses in the performance marketing ecosystem.https://isellforyou.com/lfg---## CHAPTERS0:00 Multiples And The Optionality Mindset1:17 From Affiliate To Insurance Owner2:24 Using AI To Scale Lean3:49 Stop Buying Cheap Leads5:03 Owning Supply With An Agency6:31 Retention, LTV, And Brand7:44 Building The FMO Layer And Platform9:55 AI As A Second Brain11:47 The Asset Ladder And Valuation13:58 Closing Takeaways And Thanks14:35 Final Reactions From The Room**The LFG Show — Learn from the people actually doing it.**#TheLFGShow #AffiliateSummitEast #AffiliateMarketing #ManuelPerez #PerformanceMarketing #LeadGeneration #MediaBuying #PayPerCall

THE GODFATHER OF META HAS ENTERED THE CHAT. 🔥The LFG Show got the opportunity to sit down with an absolute legend in performance marketing — Tim Burd, widely known as “The Godfather of Facebook Ads.”We caught up with Tim in Barcelona at ATO, where he was also a featured speaker, to talk about his evolution from Facebook advertising and masterminds to legal lead generation, mass tort, intake centers, call centers, and ultimately owning more of the funnel.Tim is the co-founder of AdLeaks and has spent years at the highest levels of digital advertising, entrepreneurship, consulting, and performance marketing.And this episode goes way beyond Meta ads.Selling leads is getting harder.Meta changes.Acquisition costs rise.Buyers tighten caps.Margins get squeezed.Tim explains why some of the smartest operators are moving beyond simply generating leads and starting to control more of the transaction.Instead of just getting paid for a form fill, what happens when you control the intake, qualification, follow-up, and signed retainer?That’s where the conversation gets serious.🔥 FROM FACEBOOK ADS TO MASS TORTTim shares his journey from Facebook Ad Virus, consulting, and high-level masterminds into SSDI and mass tort marketing.He breaks down why mass tort can create massive opportunity, but also comes with volatile budgets, strict quality expectations, compliance challenges, and a small group of major buyers where reputation matters.One bad batch can follow you.One great relationship can change your business.📞 OWN MORE OF THE FUNNELOne of the biggest takeaways from this episode is Tim’s move into intake centers and call center operations.When you control more of the process, you gain something incredibly valuable:FEEDBACK.Why didn’t the lead qualify?Why didn’t they sign?Was it the ad?The landing page?The targeting?The call handling?The speed-to-lead?That feedback helps improve everything upstream.Better ads.Better targeting.Better conversion.Better margins.Tim also explains why you should NOT build a massive operation before proving the model.Test it.Dial in the economics.Understand conversion.Then scale people, technology, and overhead.Sometimes the advantage isn’t more traffic.It’s calling faster, following up longer, training better, and executing the fundamentals better than everyone else.💰 OWN THE OFFERThe evolution is simple:Run traffic → Generate leads → Control intake → Understand conversion → Own the offer.The closer you get to the actual revenue event, the more control you have over your economics.If you’re in Facebook ads, affiliate marketing, lead generation, mass tort, pay-per-call, call centers, or high-ticket performance marketing, this episode is packed with value.Huge thank you to Tim Burd for sitting down with The LFG Show in Barcelona. 🐐🔥👇 COMMENT BELOW:Would you rather own the LEAD or own the entire OFFER?LIKE 👍SUBSCRIBE 🔔SHARE this with someone who runs traffic.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🔥 SPONSORED BYI SELL FOR YOUYou already paid to acquire the customer.

Paid social can change overnight.Accounts get flagged without warning. Platform policies shift. A creative that crushes on Meta can completely die on TikTok or Snapchat.Live from Affiliate World Budapest, The LFG Show sits down with Nilufar Usupova, CEO of Rezono, to break down what media buyers, agencies, and advertisers must do to stay compliant, protect their accounts, and continue scaling in an unpredictable performance marketing industry.Nilufar shares what it takes to launch and grow a performance marketing agency with credibility—from building legitimate platform partnerships and developing strong operational systems to creating a team that understands the unique differences between every advertising channel.In this episode, we discuss:🔥 Why agency ad accounts may receive stronger reputation signals🔥 How account history and credibility can impact stability🔥 Why diversification across Meta, TikTok, and Snapchat is essential🔥 TikTok pre-approvals and what they actually protect you from🔥 Advertising in restricted and newly opened verticals🔥 Opportunities in licensed iGaming🔥 Snapchat tracking, attribution, and pixel setup🔥 Why some advertisers incorrectly assume Snapchat does not work🔥 Leadership under pressure🔥 The Women in Affiliate Marketing panel🔥 Why asking for help can become a competitive advantageNilufar also explains why a one-size-fits-all media buying strategy does not work. Every platform has different users, policies, tracking requirements, creative styles, and enforcement systems. The teams that understand those differences are the teams positioned to scale.When margins are tight and competition is high, better technology, stronger partnerships, cleaner attribution, and platform diversification can make all the difference.Whether you are a media buyer, affiliate, advertiser, agency owner, or performance marketing professional, this conversation is packed with practical insights you can apply to your campaigns.Let us know in the comments: Which advertising platform are you trying to scale next?Subscribe to The LFG Show for more conversations with the leaders shaping affiliate marketing, lead generation, media buying, and performance advertising.🔥 SPONSORED BY 🔥I SELL FOR YOUTurn more customers into long-term revenue with I Sell For You.I Sell For You helps brands recover revenue and increase customer lifetime value through professionally managed outbound sales campaigns.

🔥 Want to build a bigger business, close more deals, and stop chasing shiny objects?In this episode of The LFG Show, David Stodolak sits down with Nate Ancelet, founder of Money Printer Marketing and Policy Printer, for one of the most honest conversations we've had about entrepreneurship, sales, leadership, and scaling a business.Nate pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build a high-growth company, why most entrepreneurs fail because they chase too many opportunities, and why obsession—not motivation—is what separates winners from everyone else.They dive into the massive opportunity in life insurance, why inbound sales require a completely different mindset than outbound, and how Nate has helped hundreds of agents transition into a more scalable business model.But this episode goes much deeper than insurance.Nate shares emotional stories about speaking with single parents risking their last dollars to build a better future, the responsibility that comes with leading people, and why customer success has become the foundation of everything his company does.Whether you're an entrepreneur, affiliate marketer, agency owner, sales professional, or someone looking to level up financially, this episode is packed with practical lessons you can apply immediately.👇 Subscribe for more conversations with the biggest founders, operators, marketers, and entrepreneurs in the game.   / @thelfgshow  ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🔥 Sponsors☎️ RingbaIf you're buying calls, generating leads, or running performance marketing campaigns, Ringba is the platform trusted by some of the biggest performance marketers in the world.

Thinking you’re profitable while your system is quietly leaking leads, misreporting sales, routing traffic to the wrong buyers, or letting bad data destroy your margins.You can have the best traffic source in the world—but if the infrastructure behind your business is broken, scaling just means losing money faster.📍 We’re in New York City with Greg Dobak, CEO of Standard Information, breaking down one of the most important—and most overlooked—layers of the lead generation business: LEAD DISTRIBUTION INFRASTRUCTURE.Greg explains what Standard Information actually does and why modern lead management requires much more than simply sending a lead from Point A to Point B.We get into ping post and direct post routing, buyer and vendor portals, CRM integrations, accurate reporting, real-time lead validation, duplicate detection, phone checks, fraud scoring, blacklist and litigator scrubs, compliance fundamentals, and data enrichment.Because if you're brokering, buying, or selling web form leads, you need to know exactly where your leads are going, whether the data is legitimate, what buyers are converting, and where your margins are leaking.Greg also explains why he believes his platform can compete with legacy tools that were built for a different era of lead generation—and why flexibility, transparency, better reporting, and modern infrastructure matter more as traffic costs continue to climb.☀️ Then we get into the SOLAR ROLLER COASTER.Greg shares what it was like operating through the boom, the whiplash, and the downturns of the solar industry—and why surviving difficult markets comes down to relationships, reputation, adaptability, and staying in the game longer than everyone else.⚖️ We also ask the obvious question:Why would a licensed attorney choose startups, SaaS, and lead generation?Because building beats boredom.Greg breaks down his journey into entrepreneurship, why he chose the uncertainty of building companies, and what keeps him interested in an industry that never stops changing.🤖 Then we talk about AI and where the lead generation industry is heading next.Software is becoming cheaper to build.Creative is becoming easier to produce.AI is lowering the barrier to launching products and businesses.But CLEAN DATA?That's becoming more valuable than ever.When everyone has access to similar software, similar AI tools, and increasingly similar creative capabilities, proprietary data, accurate reporting, trusted relationships, and operational infrastructure become the real competitive advantages.📈 We compare what’s working across Meta, Google, YouTube, and newer testing grounds, why Greg sees the industry shifting from simply selling leads toward building SaaS and technology businesses, and what operators need to understand about the next phase of performance marketing.We also break down some of the hottest—and surprisingly massive—verticals in home services, including roofing, kitchen and bath, siding, basements, insulation, and other niches where serious lead volume and opportunity still exist.The biggest lesson?The operators who protect their reputation, take care of their partners, survive the bad months, and stay in the game are usually the ones left standing when the next opportunity arrives.👇 POWERED BY THE LFG SHOW PARTNERS 👇🐐 RINGBA CALL TRACKING — The GOAT of Pay Per Call.Track every call.

YOU ARE LEAVING MONEY ON THE TABLE!! ISELLFORYOU.COM/LFGMost brands don't have a traffic problem. They have a "nothing happens after the click" problem.If you're running e-commerce, nutra, peptides, telemedicine, or any direct-response offer, the revenue you're chasing through cold traffic is often already sitting inside your abandoned carts, failed payments, inactive customers, and missed follow-ups.In this episode of The LFG Show, we sit down with CEO I Sell For You, Marco Guarracino, to break down how elite brands are building back-end revenue engines that turn one-time buyers into loyal customers through inbound sales, customer retention, and relationship-driven follow-up.Marco explains a simple strategy that can dramatically increase revenue: put a phone number everywhere that matters. Your sales page. Your VSL. Your homepage. Your thank-you page. Your emails. When a customer picks up the phone and calls, they've already raised their hand. The businesses that capitalize on those moments win.We also dive deep into the future of AI in sales and customer service. Not AI replacing people, but AI making sales teams better through real-time coaching, agent performance optimization, intelligent routing, and better customer-to-agent matching that leads to stronger rapport and higher conversions.Plus, Marco shares a peptides case study that recovered over $1.3 million in just 30 days through failed-payment recovery, customer care outreach, referrals, retention strategies, and smart upsell systems.If you're focused on increasing customer lifetime value, improving retention, and unlocking more revenue from the customers you already have, this episode is packed with actionable strategies you can implement immediately.🔥 SponsorsRingba – The GOAT of Pay Per Call Tracking & Analytics[https://www.ringba.com/](https://www.ringba.com/)iSellForYou – Recover More Revenue Without Increasing Ad Spend[https://isellforyou.com/lfg](https://isellforyou.com/lfg)Join the LFG Community:[https://www.lfgshow.net/](https://www.lfgshow.net/)🎙️ Subscribe for more conversations with elite entrepreneurs, operators, marketers, and industry leaders.NO MONEY.

SEAN DOUGHERTY: LEAD GEN, AI, MEDICARE & TAXES | BUILDING REAL BUSINESSES THAT LASTAI is moving so fast it feels like if you blink, the whole game changes overnight… but in lead gen, insurance, Medicare, and tax, the people who actually LAST are the ones who understand relationships, reputation, systems, and trust. In this episode of The LFG Show, Chance Garner sits down with Sean Dougherty, President of Providence and a true OG in the lead generation and performance marketing world who has been building real businesses long before AI became the hottest buzzword online.From Providence Digital Marketing generating leads and scaling campaigns, to Providence Senior Care helping seniors navigate Medicare, to Providence Tax helping people better understand their finances and taxes, Sean has quietly built an ecosystem around service, systems, and longevity while adapting through every major shift in technology and marketing.This episode dives deep into the evolution of lead gen and AI — from the early days of AI voice systems generating calls at scale to today’s automation tools that can support quoting, zip-code plan guidance, contracting, CRM infrastructure, back-office operations, and agency automation. Sean breaks down how AI should be used to compress time, improve operations, and make businesses BETTER without removing the human edge that drives referrals and long-term partnerships.We also get into entrepreneurship, faith, resilience, pickup basketball lessons that translate directly into business, overcoming losses, mentorship, NIL opportunities for athletes, Pressure Athletics, tax education, and why integrity still matters in industries obsessed with screenshots and shortcuts.This one is packed with value for agency owners, affiliates, media buyers, insurance operators, call centers, tax professionals, entrepreneurs, and anyone trying to build something REAL in today’s digital economy.NO MONEY NO HONEY 🐻🍯============================🚀 SPONSORS & PARTNERS📰 NewsBreak — One of the MOST underrated traffic sources in the game right now.Native, local, video, multiple surfaces, and HUGE scale.Get up to $5,000 in ad credits when you sign up using our link:[https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signu...](https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signu...)📞 Ringba — The GOAT of Pay Per Call.Enterprise-grade call tracking, routing, analytics, and the legendary Ringba X marketplace helping drive BILLIONS with a B in calls and revenue.Level up your routing, analytics, and payouts:[https://www.ringba.com/](https://www.ringba.com/)============================📲 CONNECT WITH SEAN DOUGHERTY   / sean-dougherty-20a52b121  Providence Senior CareProvidence Digital MarketingProvidence Tax============================📲 CONNECT WITH LFG🎥 Subscribe To The LFG Show[   / @thelfgshow  ](   / @thelfgshow  )📸 Instagram[  / thelfgshow  ](  / thelfgshow  )💼 LinkedIn[  / thelfgshow  ](  / thelfgshow  )

Most people chase success like it’s a car, a watch, or something to post on social media…Then they finally get it—and still feel empty.That’s why this conversation with Brad Cohen hits different.Recorded live at Medicarians in Las Vegas, Brad breaks down what it actually takes to build something real in business—and more importantly, something that lasts.From a 500 sq. ft. office with eight cubicles to helping pioneer the modern health insurance call center model, Brad’s journey is not built on hype. It’s built on systems, discipline, leadership, and doing the right thing when nobody is watching.This is not theory. This is decades of execution.One of the biggest takeaways from this episode is Brad’s philosophy:“Trust Movement Only.”Trust isn’t what you say—it’s how you move.It’s your actions when there’s no applause.It’s how you treat people when there’s nothing to gain.That mindset shows up in everything—from how he leads teams, to how he builds companies, to how he gives back (including personally feeding hundreds of homeless people and staying hands-on in the process).This episode goes deep into:• Building and scaling call centers in health insurance• Leadership that actually earns respect• Why money cannot be your identity• Systems and training vs hype and shortcuts• Creating a culture people want to be part of• Mentorship at every level• The dangerous mindset of entitlementBrad also drops a reality check on today’s workforce:Stop hiding behind online applications.Go knock on doors. Shake hands. Earn your opportunity.If you’re in insurance, lead gen, pay-per-call, performance marketing, or any high-accountability business—this is a masterclass in how to think, operate, and lead at a high level.This is what LFG is all about:Real people.

The fastest way to kill a lead gen business is chasing scale before you’ve earned trust. From Miami, we sit down with Ian Brennan of Avanto Media to break down what it really takes to win in affiliate marketing when buyers are stricter, traffic is noisier, and the easy days are gone.Ian goes all the way back to 2008 and shares a brutal early lesson that shaped how he operates today. We dive into Avanto Media’s core verticals like auto insurance, auto finance, personal loans, and mortgage products like refi and HELOC, plus why mortgage leads are both high payout and high risk if you don’t respect compliance.This episode is for real operators. If you care about buyer KPIs, quality, compliance, and building campaigns that actually last, this is the playbook.We also get into what most people won’t say out loud — conferences don’t make you money unless you know how to work them. The booth is just the beginning. The real ROI comes from follow-up, relationships, and being intentional about who you build with.Then we shift into health, stress, and longevity… and Ian’s Finland-inspired sauna culture that turned into an invite-only networking experience: Affiliate Sauna.If you’re building in lead gen, performance marketing, or pay-per-call… this is a must watch.---TIMESTAMPS0:00 Sponsor Messages And Offers1:02 Miami Intro And Guest Welcome1:49 Early Career And A Hard Lesson2:42 Avanto Media Verticals And Mortgages3:40 Why Lead Gen Got Harder8:20 Vetting Partners And Hiring Right10:59 Making Events Pay Over Time18:40 Health Habits For High Stress Work22:49 Finland Saunas And A New Networking Event29:28 Where To Find Ian And Closing---SPONSORS (SHOW THEM LOVE 🔥)RingbaThe GOAT of pay-per-call.

If your Meta ad account has ever felt like oxygen… then got restricted and left your business gasping… this episode is REQUIRED watching. 💨❌Dan breaks it down in a way most people won’t: scaling Meta ads isn’t about chasing magical agency accounts, “whitelisted” BMs, or praying your CPM drops overnight. That’s fairy tale marketing. 🧚‍♂️The truth?CREATIVES win. SYSTEMS win. COMPLIANCE wins. 💰We go deep into:👉 How ONE ad account can actually scale (without a graveyard of backups)👉 Building real uptime through compliance + smart appeals👉 Why most “agency accounts” are smoke & mirrors👉 The REAL way to run restricted offers (telehealth, GLP-1, ED) without getting clipped👉 Why your NETWORK is your real insurance policy in this game 🤝👉 Pricing models that actually make sense (and why % of spend is a trap)👉 Turning ad spend into PROFIT with cashback + Amex points 💳💸Dan’s take is simple… and ruthless:If your ads don’t convert, no “special account” is saving you.If your system is broken, scaling will break you.This is about building infrastructure that LASTS.Not gambling your business on hope. 🎯If you’re running Facebook ads, Meta ads, affiliate offers, ecommerce, or ANY paid traffic… this is one of those episodes you run back twice. 🔁👇 TAP IN 👇Subscribe.

NO MONEY. NO HONEY. 🐻🍯One platform tweak can wipe out months of momentum overnight… so we pulled up to Affiliate Takeover Miami and sat down with Tyler Dusty, growth partner at GrowRev, to break down what it actually takes to scale paid traffic without building a fragile business.Miami energy was different for this one.Surrounded by killers in the space, this conversation goes straight into what real operators are doing right now to stay ahead. If you’re still relying on one traffic source, you’re already behind. Tyler breaks down why diversification across Facebook, Google, Snapchat, and emerging channels isn’t optional anymore… it’s survival.We get into why attribution is the backbone of predictable growth and how stepping into a fractional CMO mindset changes the game. This isn’t just about buying ads… it’s about owning the entire acquisition machine from click to close.Then we go deep on telehealth and the peptide boom.GLP-1s are exploding, demand is everywhere, but most people miss the real lever… capital. If you’re running subscription offers, you can be negative day one and still win big — but only if you can fund the gap long enough for retention and LTV to catch up. This is where most media buyers get exposed.From there we talk scaling realities… creative fatigue, protecting ad accounts, and why going from 20k/day to 200k/day is a completely different sport. More spend doesn’t fix problems… it magnifies them.We also break down building with the exit in mind. What buyers actually want, what’s hot right now in M&A, and how to position your company so you’re not stuck… you’re in demand.And then… the story that shifts perspective.Tyler shares what it felt like being in Dubai when a missile hit nearby — and the unexpected calm that came after. One of those moments that makes you rethink pressure, risk, and what actually matters.If you’re in lead gen, pay per call, telehealth, or performance marketing… this one is packed with real game.Subscribe, drop a comment with the channel you’re betting on right now, and send this to a media buyer who needs to hear it.SHOUTOUT 🔥Affiliate Takeover MiamiIncredible event, high-level operators, and real connections being made.

This isn’t surface-level “prompt tips” — this is about turning AI into infrastructure inside your business.We get tactical on how to actually use Claude and ChatGPT inside performance marketing, media buying, and daily execution. From campaign ideation to creative iteration, Jason explains how to build prompt systems your team can reuse — not just one-off wins.Then we level up: prompt frameworks rooted in proven copywriting principles, paired with a simple but powerful loop — make the model grade its own work, refine it, and repeat until it hits the standard. That’s how you go from “AI output” to operator-level results.We also dig into the human side of the AI shift. Working with AI looks a lot like managing employees: clear direction, structured inputs, ongoing training, and fast feedback when things go off track. That same mindset is changing hiring — “AI-first” isn’t a buzzword anymore. The best teams are testing workflows, tools, and API fluency… not resumes.Zooming out, we hit the bigger questions:What happens to jobs?Why exponential change is so hard to predict?And how thinking like Ray Kurzweil can actually reduce fear and help you prepare instead of react.On the lead gen side, we keep it real:Quality > volumeAPI-first platforms are winningAnd where calls vs. leads actually break down when you scaleWe close with forward-looking bets — telehealth, peptides, longevity — and what it means when distribution, compliance, and acquisition all collide in an AI-driven healthcare world.This episode is for builders.

From Austin, Texas, we sit down with Tony Avila (IG: @yotonyishere) to break down the real mechanics behind building a scalable giveaway business. On the surface, giveaways look like a shortcut — but the real operators treat them like infrastructure. Tony explains how compliance, clean systems, disciplined media buying, and strong brand relationships turn a simple giveaway into a repeatable machine.Tony shares how he went from a hungry media buyer running ads to building a network tied into motorcycle clubs and major Harley-Davidson relationships — creating launches that get bigger and better every time because the systems keep improving.We also dive into the culture of performance marketing. The phrase “high-functioning degenerates” hits close to home in this industry — work hard, play hard environments where deals get made, partnerships form, and opportunities compound. But this episode also gets real about discipline: choosing the right masterminds, avoiding idea overload, and why being around serious operators forces you to level up fast.Tony’s story started long before giveaways. After immigrating from Mexico to South Jersey, he skipped the traditional college route, built a mall t-shirt kiosk, learned how to sell online, and survived the brutal make-money / lose-money cycles that every real media buyer knows too well.We also unpack political ad creativity, getting authorized with platforms, and the lesson most marketers learn the hard way: the paperwork you want to avoid is usually the exact thing that keeps you in the game when platforms change overnight.If you’re in e-commerce, affiliate marketing, lead generation, or paid traffic, this episode is a real look at how winners filter opportunities and double down on the lane that actually compounds.Subscribe to The LFG Show, share this episode with a friend in the game, and leave a review so more operators can find the show.Sponsors 🤝🔥Ringba — Call tracking, routing, and monetization built for performance marketers scaling pay-per-call campaigns.[https://www.ringba.com/lfg](https://www.ringba.com/lfg)NewsBreak is matching up to $5,000 in ad spend when you sign up with the LFG link 👇[https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signup?utm_source=pod&utm_medium=lfg](https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signup?utm_source=pod&utm_medium=lfg)

Most business content celebrates the win… but skips the part that almost breaks you.On this episode of The LFG Show, we go the opposite direction.Instead of flexing the highlight reel, we unpack the real moments entrepreneurs face before scale ever feels “safe.” The sleepless nights staring at payroll with the wrong bank balance. The painful lessons in forecasting. And the realization that hustle alone can’t replace financial strategy forever.My partner Edmond Pain joins me to break down the hidden landmines that show up when companies start scaling fast.We talk about the painful side of growth most people never post about:• Cash flow panic during rapid scale• Forecasting mistakes that nearly break companies• Tax structure errors that cost business owners millions• Why “you don’t know what you don’t know” becomes expensive as you level upEdmond also explains why so many founders miss massive tax strategy opportunities simply because they never structured their companies properly or built a proactive financial plan.And we get real about something most founders avoid: *knowing your numbers.*Having a CFO (even fractional) only works if you're willing to actually understand your financials.We also unpack a brutal near-exit story where valuation moved fast because buyers look at **rolling performance**, not just a clean calendar year. When the solar market shifted, the deal changed overnight.Then we connect it to what’s happening right now in **roofing and home services growth**.We break down:• Scaling from $5M → $10M → $25M• Seasonality and material costs• Labor challenges and operational structure• Org charts and putting the right people in the right seats• SOPs that actually protect EBITDAFinally, we talk about what’s working today:AI automations, virtual staffing, and back-office systems that remove chaos and give businesses flexibility when markets shift.If you're building a business and want the *real roadmap — not just the highlight reel — this episode is for you.*Subscribe, share this with a friend who's in the grind, and drop a comment with the biggest pain point you're dealing with right now.

Comment the word MAC down below for a chance to win a Mac Mini 💻🔥and a FREE seat to Samar's masterclass on February 26th 5pm estOne-Man Billion-Dollar Company With AIImagine a future where a single founder can credibly build a billion-dollar company—and the backbone is AI. This episode breaks down what it actually takes to make that real: not hype, but systems, discipline, and community that turn ideas into repeatable outcomes. From onstage workshops to late-night research sprints, we share the moves that compress timelines, lift margins, and keep your team locked in on what matters.Samar Hussain joins us to unpack the operating system behind his momentum: live workshops where attendees open laptops and ship working tools on the spot, a quiet but potent paid Telegram community that prioritizes action over chatter, and a relentless research habit that keeps him ahead of model upgrades and new workflows.We get tactical on building internal AI tools:– Call scoring systems that kill fraud in minutes– Transaction audits that slash subscription bloat– Data pipelines that replace gut feel with real forecasting– Workflow automation that turns chaos into clarityThe payoff is speed. When your team can wield AI against real process flows, you stop firefighting and start forecasting.We also go deep on focus and proximity. Splitting attention across too many verticals tanks profits and spikes stress. By picking one revenue engine, consolidating roles, and cutting redundant expenses, growth becomes smoother and more defensible. Proximity amplifies it: surround yourself with operators who give blunt feedback and set a higher bar. That environment forces sharper decisions on hiring (hello Gen Z AI super-users), training, and saying no to shiny offers that drag you off course.Looking ahead, we outline a serious plan for MiamiCon: an AI-powered event built around personalization, structured for operators in the room, and designed to deliver compounding edges—not fluff. If you’re ready to replace noise with data, hype with hands-on builds, and clutter with clean systems, this one is for you.Huge shoutout to our sponsors:Ringba – The leader in call tracking and performance marketing infrastructure.

📞💰 Phone Calls That Print: The 2026 Pay-Per-Call PlaybookLIVE from Affiliate Summit West in Las Vegas 🎰🔥Hosted by The LFG Show’s David StodolakA dead offer doesn’t mean dead demand. The money didn’t disappear — it moved to the phone.In this heavyweight panel recorded live in Vegas, we break down the macro shift reshaping performance marketing right now: consumer-initiated inbound calls are outperforming form leads and outbound at scale. Spam labeling, falling connection rates, and tighter regulations are crushing dialers — while calls deliver the highest intent, cleaner compliance, and real conversations that actually close.Adam Young, Founder & CEO of Ringba, lays out the macro reality from the front lines. Billion-dollar call flows, scale signals from Ringba’s GOAT Club, and why inbound calls are becoming the most defensible channel in the industry heading into 2026.Then we get tactical 🔥We map how top operators are diversifying beyond Meta into TikTok, NewsBreak, Snapchat, CTV, radio-style audio, and even direct mail — and how those channels only work when paired with serious call tracking, instant routing, and full-funnel attribution.Samar Hussain breaks the creative bottleneck wide open. JSON-driven prompting, Sora and VEO pipelines, variation engines, strict naming conventions, and daily UGC-style output that stays compliant while slashing costs. Learn how to extend 15-second model limits, structure testing cadences, and connect performance back to prompts so scaling becomes systematic — not luck.On the ops side, Boris Shvarts from Pitch Perfect explains how to run onshore warm transfers at 20k+ calls per day with rev-share alignment, carrier approvals, supervisor ratios, DID registration, and stress-proof tech stacks — all priced to buyer CPA and LTV.Carlos Corona Jr. shows how to stop begging for cap by partnering directly with operators, automating real-time quoting across auto, health, and life, and launching prepaid marketplaces so overflow turns into revenue instead of waste.David Stodolak closes with the biggest blind spots most marketers are missing: fragmented, local, high-ticket services like HVAC, plumbing, electrical, pest control, med spas, and elective surgery — plus the massive upside still sitting in Spanish-language programs.The winning pattern for 2026 is clear 🚀Diversify channelsCapture every variableManufacture compliant creatives at scaleOwn enough of the back end to protect marginsHumans still close humans on important buys.

Stop scrolling — you’re looking at the early days of a gold rush 🛒🔥TikTok Shop isn’t saturated. It’s not “late.” It’s still in the early stages of its real potential, and the people who understand that right now are building a massive head start.In this episode, we go deep on TikTok Shop with Jose Torres, founder of Creatify — the #1 TikTok Shop operation in America 🇺🇸🏆. Not hype. Not theory. Real systems, real scale, real revenue.This conversation makes one thing crystal clear: TikTok Shop today feels a lot like Facebook ads or Amazon in the early days. The algorithm is still generous, the infrastructure is still forming, and creators and brands who move now are locking in unfair advantages before the masses arrive.We break down exactly how the machine works:• How creators qualify and get approved• How to request product samples the right way• Why guessing kills momentum and a tight creative formula wins every time• How top brands coordinate thousands of UGC posts that turn into a compounding content engine across TikTok and MetaThe numbers are eye-opening 📈You’ll hear real examples — including a creator who jumped from roughly 20–30K in monthly profit to 430K in a single month — and brands scaling by treating TikTok Shop content like performance media, not random posts.We also get specific on what TikTok is prioritizing right now:• Skincare and supplements are leading the charge• Home goods and select niches still work with the right story and on-camera trust• Live shopping is exploding overseas and slowly ramping in the U.S.• Short-form UGC remains the primary driver of sales todayWhether you’re:• A brand sitting on inventory• A creator chasing 15–25% commissions per sale• Or someone who feels like they’re always late to trends…the playbook is simple:Align product and personaHook fastShow benefits visuallyAsk for the saleThen scale what works with discipline instead of chasing hype 💰🚀We also talk sustainability. Big ambition requires structure. Meditation, training, routine health checks, and consistency are what keep you sharp when the grind hits hard. The opportunity is massive, but the winners are the ones who can stay in the game long enough to compound.If you’ve been waiting for a real entry point into TikTok Shop, this is it.Hit follow, share this with someone who needs a new income stream, and drop a review telling us what niche you’re launching next 👀🔥——Sponsors (LFG Family 🤝)RingbaCall tracking, routing, and analytics built for marketers scaling real revenue.https://www.ringba.comNewsBreakOne of the most underrated traffic sources in the game — and they’re matching up to $5,000 in ad spend when you sign up through the LFG link 💸https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signup?utm_source=pod&utm_medium=lfgNo money.

Your equity is up, cash is down, and monthly payments are crushing budgets 📉🏠In this episode, we sit down with Derek Jarr of Stay Frank to break down a practical alternative for homeowners who can’t — or won’t — take on new debt. We unpack home equity investments, a model that provides cash today with no monthly payments and a payoff at sale or refinance.If you’re sitting on a 2–4% mortgage you won’t touch, a sub-620 credit score, and five or six figures of equity locked inside your walls, this could be the bridge between high-interest cards and real financial stability.We walk through exactly how the structure works using real numbers, the trade-offs versus HELOCs and cash-out refis, and why this isn’t “cheap money” — it’s a strategic bridge. Derek explains the guardrails that keep deals safe, including typical credit bands, minimum accessible equity, and loan-to-value thresholds.We also explore when a sale-leaseback can be the smarter move 🧠Selling the home to an operator while leasing it back allows homeowners to delay a move and unlock funds now. This can be especially powerful for retirees or anyone facing rising HOA dues, insurance premiums, and property taxes.For performance marketers, this is a greenfield opportunity 🚀Search demand is still thin because consumers don’t fully understand the category, which creates massive upside for operators who lead with education. Declined refi leads, HELOC fallout, debt settlement lists, and distressed homeowner data can convert extremely well when you qualify properly and transfer warm calls.We dig into payout structures, two-to-four-week funding timelines, and why early adopters can capture outsized returns before this category goes mainstream.If you’re ready to test a niche that solves a real problem and rewards operators who actually do the work, this episode maps the playbook.Enjoy the episode, share it with a friend who needs a smarter path to liquidity, and subscribe to stay ahead of the next niche that scales 👊Sponsors:Ringba – call tracking and pay-per-call infrastructure built to scale[https://www.ringba.com](https://www.ringba.com)NewsBreak – reach local audiences at scale with native advertising[https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signup?utm_source=pod&utm_medium=lfg](https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signup?utm_source=pod&utm_medium=lfg)No Money No Honey

Where would this industry be without Harrison?Long before playbooks, gurus, or conference stages, Harrison was already in the trenches building, breaking, and rebuilding the systems that performance marketing and pay-per-call still run on today. He isn’t adjacent to the story — he’s a central character in it. A true pioneer whose fingerprints are all over how this industry scaled, stabilized, and survived.In this episode, we sit down with Harrison, and his story is straight out of the wild west of the internet.It starts at 13 years old — spamming the internet, flipping coins on eBay, living in sketchy forums, and hacking early SEO before anyone knew what SEO even was. That chaos turned into momentum. That momentum turned into a seven-figure run before most people finish college. And then came the real test: scaling into a nine-figure affiliate network that exploded under bad AR, weak controls, and adrenaline-fueled decisions.The wreckage became the lesson.We go deep on the things most operators never talk about:– Why promising wires you can’t send destroys trust instantly– How weekly, no-minimum payouts quietly kill businesses– Why radical transparency with advertisers and traffic sources can unlock exclusive access– How one counterparty default can wipe out years of top-line winsHarrison breaks down real operator decisions:– Trade credit insurance that saved six figures– Modeling payroll for twelve months of zero cash flow– Choosing durability over hype, ego, and dopamineRingba is a core part of this story.As partners, Harrison and Adam Young helped architect the infrastructure that modern pay-per-call depends on. We talk about the early chaos of the industry, the trust failures, the lack of real controls, and how Ringba was built by operators who had already lived the downside. From call tracking to intelligent routing to marketplace liquidity, Ringba didn’t just grow with the industry — it helped define it.We also break down Ringba X, a programmatic call exchange built slowly and intentionally, prioritizing compliance, quality, and longevity in a space that usually chooses speed over stability. Built to last, not built for hype.Then comes the pivot nobody saw coming.A brutal private jet experience turned into a full-scale aviation business serving billionaires, built on 24/7 service and fair economics for aircraft owners. We break down a surgical, near break-even play that landed Grant Cardone as a client — flying him to Paris on a private jet — and why five hours of proximity at 40,000 feet can beat any conference hallway deal.If you’re a performance marketer, founder, or operator trying to scale the right way, this episode is required listening:– Communicate early– Insure receivables– Respect margins– Build real systems– Partner with people who’ve lived the downside– Keep showing up when it’s uncomfortableSponsors:Ringba – call tracking and pay-per-call infrastructure built by operators, for operatorshttps://www.ringba.comNewsBreak – reach local audiences at scalehttps://admanager.newsbreak.com/signup?utm_source=pod&utm_medium=lfgSubscribe, share this with someone who needs perspective, and drop a review telling us the one safeguard you’re implementing this week.No Money No HoneyLet’s Freakin’ Go

Ever wonder why some TikTok Lives feel like a party and a checkout line at the same time? That’s not luck, it’s engineered.We sit down with Carmen Muley, CEO of Paragon Social Commerce, to unpack how creators and brands move from nice content to content that actually converts. Carmen’s path runs from China’s 2015 live streaming studios to today’s TikTok Shop surge across Spain, Germany, and the UK, and she brings an operator-level playbook for anyone who wants sales, not just views.We get tactical on what’s working right now:How to write clear creator briefs that define the buyer, the angles that matter, and what actually sellsLive formats that win, including fast demos, proof, price framing, and resetting the hook every few minutes for new viewersMarketplace mechanics like commissions, product showcases, and why a simple setup with consistency beats big-budget productionHow to start going live with products you already own, secure your first sales, and use that traction to earn samples and brand dealsProduct selection gets its own spotlight. Carmen shares how tools like Kalodata and Fastmoss help spot trends early, plus surprising winners like olive oil, umbrellas, and seasonal Spanish ham alongside evergreen staples such as fashion, beauty, and small electronics.We also dig into the biggest brand mistakes:Skipping strategyExpecting instant resultsFailing to brief creators or briefing them poorlyCarmen ties it together with how Paragon Social Commerce supports TikTok Shop end to end, including setup, catalog and pricing, live operations, affiliate management, ads, and team training, all built on constant testing, not theory.If you’re ready to turn attention into revenue on TikTok Shop, this conversation gives you the blueprint: brief clearly, go live often, test angles, and let data train your growth.—LFG SponsorsRingbahttps://www.ringba.comNewsBreakUse code: https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signup?utm_source=pod&utm_medium=lfg—Subscribe, share this with a creator or founder who needs it, and leave a review telling us what you’re testing first.No Money No Honey.

Two booths facing each other, stacks of signed books, and a team that somehow manages to be everywhere at once—this episode pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to scale pay-per-call from a “nice tactic” into a true category with billion-dollar upside.We sit down with Eric Vari, VP of Sales at Ringba, alongside sales weapon Ross Van Meter, to break down the mindset, mechanics, and momentum driving Ringba’s growth. Eric explains why pay-per-call is still early innings—and how Ringba is deliberately building for the inflection point with enterprise-grade call tracking, intelligent routing, and Ringba X, a marketplace designed to add real liquidity for buyers and publishers. He also shares how Adam Young and Harrison Gevirtz push strategy forward by pressure-testing ideas, leading from the front, and reinforcing a culture where truth, speed, and ownership win. The north star is clear: real adoption, relentless innovation, global expansion—and a long-term path toward a $10B valuation.Ross brings it down to the field level. From daily content that builds trust before the show to relentless outbound that converts during and after, he details how he books 50–60 meetings per event and closes 25–30% within weeks. The playbook stays simple: start newcomers in white-hat home services, set clean KPIs, and scale what proves out. Education is a force multiplier—the Pay Per Call Revolution and the new step-by-step workbook are designed to help publishers launch faster with fewer blind spots. Partnerships complete the flywheel: a direct integration with NewsBreak unlocks a high-intent 40+ audience primed for insurance and home services, while Snapchat matched spend lowers the risk of testing new acquisition channels.If you’re a publisher, brand, or marketer tired of signal loss, soft attribution, and guesswork, this episode is a practical roadmap for turning intent into outcomes—covering how to pick a vertical, structure campaigns, and leverage platforms like NewsBreak and Snapchat for measurable conversions.Shoutout to our sponsors who power The LFG Show:Ringba – The leading pay-per-call tracking and routing platform, built for scale with enterprise-grade analytics, real-time routing, and a marketplace that connects buyers and publishers with precision.👉 https://ringba.comNewsBreak – A massive local-news advertising platform that delivers high-intent traffic at scale, especially strong for insurance and home services, with native placements that convert.👉 https://admanager.newsbreak.com/signup?utm_source=pod&utm_medium=lfgSubscribe, share this with a teammate who needs a stronger lead engine, and leave a review with your top takeaway—we’ll feature our favorites next week.

The ground shifted under Meta buyers—and if you’ve felt sudden CPA swings, throttled delivery, or terrifying burst spend, you’re not crazy. That’s Andromeda. And in this session, Dimitri Vulpe breaks down what actually changed inside the auction—live from the stage at Affiliate World Bangkok.We get real about why creative clones and overlapping angles now get punished, why endlessly tweaking interests is a losing game, and why small, scattered budgets confuse the model instead of training it. Then Dimitri walks through the exact structure that pulled accounts out of the spiral and made scaling predictable again.It starts with clarity: ultra-clean accounts and ABO-based testing that isolates angles properly. One ad set. One clear proposition. Creatives that align tightly with that angle. That separation gives Meta clean signals, reduces internal competition, and stops self-throttling before it begins. When an angle proves repeatable—strong CTRs, healthy CVRs, and stability under modest budget increases—it’s stress-tested, scaled deliberately, and rolled back fast if performance slips. Predictability wins. And Andromeda rewards it.For scale, we move into bid-cap CBOs with intentionally inflated daily budgets. The goal isn’t to spend the headline number—it’s to unlock more of the auction. When executed correctly, CPMs often drop instead of spike. Guardrails like max ad set spend caps widen reach without risking catastrophic burst spend.From there, it’s horizontal scale: multiple domains, pages, ad accounts, and operators. That diversification reduces CPA volatility, isolates issues like flags or reviews, and keeps delivery consistent day after day. Dimitri also breaks down how AI now powers the creative pipeline, why broad targeting beats interests, and where retargeting still fits in a post-Andromeda world.If you’re battling volatile CPAs, dead CBOs, or random spend spikes, this talk gives you a simpler structure, respect for angle ceilings, and a framework to scale with intent—not hope.Huge shoutout to the sponsors who power The LFG Show:🔥 Ringba – The leading pay-per-call tracking and routing platform, giving media buyers real-time call data, smarter optimization, and full control over performance.📰 NewsBreak – One of the largest native discovery platforms, helping advertisers reach massive, high-intent audiences outside the Meta and Google echo chambers.👉 Subscribe for more real-world media buying frameworks👉 Share this with a teammate who needs stability👉 Leave a review and tell us your biggest Andromeda pain pointStraight from the stage at Affiliate World Bangkok.No money.
