Build Your Most Successful Ad Campaign – A One Day Workshop
During a one-day workshop, and subsequent follow-up phone calls, for 12 owner-operated businesses and organizations, the Wizard of Ads partners and three-time New York Times Bestseller, Roy H. Williams, will help discover your message and create a custom-designed playbook for the most successful ad campaign your company has ever embraced.
September 18, 2018
You will have two highly-paid, sought-after consultants working with you to help create an implementation strategy.
Wizard of Ads consultants bring the experience of spending tens-of-millions of dollars worth of other peoples money to the table… your table. These consultants have a track record of helping others grow by double and triple digits year-after-year.
You’re going to leave Seattle, WA with decisions made and an implementation strategy you can… you know… actually implement. You’re not going to come, listen, leave, and then forget 99% of what was discussed during the day. You’re walking away with what other workshops can rarely do: a custom-designed playbook.
And, not only will you have a spectacular plan, you’ll enjoy lunch, dinner, wine, and beer… on us (we’re serious about our eats).
The Cost
After the workshop is over, you’ll also have optional follow-up phone sessions available from a partner as part of the fee. 1 hour per week for 4 weeks.
If you’ve ever been excited about a new idea but lost steam thereafter, you know how critical this is. It’s time to bring some marketing magic into reality and truly improve your business.
When, Where & How Long
September 18, 2018, at the Axis Pioneer Square in downtown Seattle, WA
Magic Dozen Marketing Workshop is a full day(9 AM – 7:30 PM) of learning and creating. We’ll feed you lunch and celebrate with dinner (did I mention we like great food and beverages?).

How Driverless Cars Work
I’m fascinated by how things work. I’m amazed at what Tesla is doing. I’m humbled by the conflicts AI brings to the world.
The other day I was listening to NPR. They were talking about driverless cars and they kept saying “…how driverless cars work…”
I got to thinking “I wonder if any of the car manufacturers bought that domain name. It’d be smart of them. It’s going to take some education for people who are in the middle and at the end of the adaptation bell-curve to jump on board with the idea. A smart industry leader could use the site to share all sorts of information to help people feel comfortable with the idea. I mean, I’m certain that question is a common search in Google. It’d likely be easy to rank the site high and get a lot of traffic.”
I then tip-tapped-typed to GoDaddy.com.
My fingers danced out HowDriverlessCarsWork.com.
I read “Your domain name is available for $14.98”
Click. Bought.
Why? Why has no one, especially in the industry, thought about setting up a site for this question?
Head, meet desk. Desk, meet head.
There are a few things I can do with it:
- Nothing and see if anyone approaches me about it
- I setup the site for the purpose it should be used for and operate it myself with possible help from others
- I create a site that’s specifically targeted to the marketing people in the industry telling them why they need to take the domain name over. I’d even spend some ad dollars just to get them to visit the site. Of course, I’d sell them the domain name.
What to do? What. To. Do.
Agility and Business Communication
Entrepreneur.com published parts of an email written by Elon Musk, Tesla’s and SpaceX’s CEO. I’m sharing it with you because there are key points Mr. Musk makes in his email that has to do with communication and taking down silos within an organization.
Near the end of the email, Mr. Musk states “…ensuring that we execute ultra-fast and well. We obviously cannot compete with the big car companies in size, so we must do so with intelligence and agility.” The words intelligence and agility slapped my head.
Do you know how Amazon has made their mark? It’s because they’re human-centric. Amazon’s real growth comes from caring about people inside and out of the organization and according to the book “Be Like Amazon: Even a Lemonade Stand Can Do It” agility is one of the four pillars of Amazon’s success.
I recommend you read one of the best business books I’ve read in a long time. Yes, the three gents who wrote the book are partners and mentors of mine but I put those biases aside. After you read “Be Like” come back and you’ll see a connection between Tesla, SpaceX and Amazon.
