Digital Marketing Executive

Do you know why most SaaS companies fail to accelerate growth with online advertising?

They pick the wrong metrics to focus on because their strategies are flawed.

And I am not talking about vanity metrics,

I mean hardcore revenue metrics.

They think in order to grow revenue they need to focus on revenue metrics, like MRR.

But using MRR to optimise your online advertising campaigns is wrong.

Here’s why:

Online Advertising = More Leads = More Customers = ARR/MRR Growth

Really?

Growth is not that simple, is it? Something must be missing!

# HERE’S THE SECRET TO GROWTH

In order to grow to 7 - 8 figures ARR you need more than ‘more customers’,

You need to get them engaged with your product and you need to retain them.

Not just acquire them.

Advertising strategies that don’t take this into account fail. That’s it!

They use the wrong strategy, focus on the wrong metrics, and fall short of their goals.

# HERE’S WHERE I COME IN 🙋

I can deliver a strategy for YOUR SaaS business that grows revenue.

My systems and frameworks are tried and tested and THEY WORK because they follow this simple principle:

Create the right strategy first then connect the dots with the right metrics. 

Not the other way around.

Many SaaS companies make the mistake of creating a strategy around metrics. All they really create is a mismatch.

There is no secret to success, but you do need to know all the steps and the order to take them in. 

It’s like making a cake, knowing all the ingredients isn’t enough. 

You need to know how much and in what order to mix them, otherwise you'll end up with a squidgy lump rather than a tasty cake. 

There are no secrets working with me either. 

Throughout you’ll have a clear understanding of progress, what’s working, what’s not working, and how we’re going to improve.

# THINK CAREFULLY, IS THIS APPROACH RIGHT FOR YOU?

Unfortunately, I don’t work with everyone. All my clients MUST have:

1) an amazing product that customers love using again and again

2) experienced some success organically, without an effective online advertising strategy

3) at least 10K a month ready to invest in online advertising

If you match these criteria then your online advertising should be working and I can help you :)

Fractional CPO and Product Advisor

Advertising workflows have been quite static and suitable for quarterly planning, the issue is that we have a weekly feed of data to optimise activation..

This is what I am starting to see: Agentic AI systems that pair two critical layers:

-MCP (shared context and permissions)
-A2A (intelligent agent coordination)

The issue is that we obsessively focus on speed without control. This is the best definition of expensive chaos(!)

Instead: 
->Orchestrate high-stakes work (brand campaigns, pricing, legal)
->Choreograph routine tasks (email variants, A/B tests, asset optimisation)
->Finops process as a human in the loop: keep this guardrail untouched because replacing a £50K human with £100K of agent compute makes little sense

What this looks like in practice:
Stop using linear workflows and artifacts that break when conditions shift. 

Create specialist agents that:
Draft channel-specific copy
Verify claims and brand voice
Rebalance budgets from live performance data
Decide when to centralise vs. distribute work
>>>All operating within defined budgets, roles, and audit trails.

Key risks to manage:
Uncapped agent conversations = silent budget bleed
Black box decisions that executives can't defend - where's my XAI? 
Local optimisations that create system-wide harm

How to validate: 
Pick a low-risk, high-learning & reward area. 
Measure everything. 
Keep humans in charge of taste, trust, and brand decisions. 
Build traces so you can replay any decision.

The technology is ready, the issue is can you use it and apply it with discipline?

CPO / VP Product/ Product Leader | Data Intelligence & AI, AdTech, Fintech, Proptech

OpenAI rolling advertising looks likely but the path to implementation will be complex and uncertain.

Let me explain: 

So, what’s the legal basis to send me ads when I asked the GPT for a snoopy cartoon picture and it suggested me a branded product? 
Is there a legitimate interest or consent to use personal data from chatGPT conversations?  
I am not sure.

In any case I would expect a clear and informed choice to consent.  Maybe something like pay for ad-free experience like Meta? T&Cs should tell users how data is used as part of the transparency principle. 

The other issue that will be most difficult to address is the right of erasure.  How will OpenAi manage the removal of personal data from LLMs training models will be challenging.

The last area will be about accuracy and liability. Ads or product recommendations generated by AI must be accurate and not misleading. Advertisers and the platform can be held liable for false or unsubstantiated claims in AI-generated ad content, as AI "hallucinations" can lead to factual errors. 

In the meantime, expect new T&Cs and a big announcement to plug the code red funding hole at OpenAI ..

Hope you have a camera where you are .. hope to see those pictures one day
