Podcast Episode 27 – Don’t Mention ‘The Thing’

Author Jon Quinton 2 min read time

So much has changed in recent months we thought it would be useful to get together, take stock and discuss how performance is looking across our accounts.

Join myself, Ellie and Nina to see how performance on paid search and paid social is looking and some recommendations based on what’s working as we move into the summer.

Even though the idea was to sit down and chat about what we’re seeing working right now, we also wanted to take a little bit of a break from talking about Covid and lockdown.

We’re written about ‘performance in lockdown’ a lot, there’s also a ton of other content around it so we really felt like giving it a bit of a breather. See how we get on talking about performance right now, whilst actively avoiding talking about ‘the thing’. That’s harder than you’d imagine given how much impact it’s had!

The big point that came out of the conversation is that 2020 is anything but normal, so in some cases the usual seasonal trends have gone out of the window. Trying to assess whether you’re on trend has become extremely difficult in a year when the normal trends just don’t really exist.

If you’re looking for a view on performance and generally what we’re seeing then take a listen. We also give away a bunch of advice on what you can do right now to keep on top of performance and keep things moving in the right direction.

Here’s what we cover:

  • Performance we’re seeing on paid social
  • Performance we’re seeing on PPC
  • Current trends on the platforms
  • Recommendations based on what’s working

Hope you enjoy and please don’t forget to subscribe and leave us a review.
