Your Attention Is Your Most Valuable Asset

Yousaf breaks down why attention is your most valuable currency—especially early in your career—and why toxic business relationships deserve zero access to your time. Through real stories of mentorship, betrayal, and hard-earned lessons, he explains that getting cut off, underpaid, or disrespected isn’t a signal to argue—it’s a signal to move on, protect your energy, and focus only on people who respect your growth.

 

Core takeaway: You don’t owe closure to people who treat you poorly; discipline in who you give attention to is part of becoming successful.

PPC Isn’t Hard — But Becoming an Expert Is

In this episode, Yousaf breaks down one of the most common misconceptions in paid media: the difference between learning PPC and actually becoming an expert. While the basics of Google Ads can be learned quickly, true expertise comes from years of hands-on experience, problem-solving, and understanding how every part of the funnel works together.

He explains why most people fail by focusing only on ads and not on post-click performance, conversion flow, and diagnosing where users drop off. Using real-world examples, Yousaf compares great media buyers to master mechanics — able to hear “the noise,” diagnose the issue, and fix it efficiently.

The episode dives into why certifications don’t make experts, how real skill comes from working across many accounts and industries, and why understanding conversion behavior matters more than knowing platform features. If you want to scale campaigns profitably, this episode breaks down exactly what separates beginners from true performance marketers.

I Accidentally Grew My LinkedIn to 920+ Followers

In this episode, Yousaf Yunes, founder of YRV Dynamics, breaks down how he quietly grew his LinkedIn following from roughly 400 to over 900 followers in just a few months—without ads, gimmicks, or daily posting.

Yousaf shares why follower count is largely a vanity metric, how LinkedIn’s algorithm actually behaves, and why engagement matters far more than connections or subscribers. He explains how restarting his LinkedIn from scratch allowed him to rebuild with intention and filter out low-quality connections from his earlier career.

One of the biggest insights comes from how he flipped nonstop cold outreach into a growth lever. Instead of ignoring spam, Yousaf began asking outreach senders to follow him on LinkedIn before continuing the conversation. This simple shift exposed how many outreach messages were automated, improved the quality of his audience, and unexpectedly accelerated follower growth.

He also discusses:

• Why “jousting” in comment sections drives reach

• How posting just 2–3 times per week outperformed daily content

• Why most lead magnets and “comment for PDF” posts are fake engagement

• How LinkedIn’s algorithm rewards consistency over volume

• Why follower count still matters more on LinkedIn than on other platforms

Price Your Agency Like a Professional, Not a Freelancer

In this episode, I break down one of the biggest mistakes agency owners make: undervaluing their work.

We dive into how to think about pricing the right way — not by hours, but by impact, expertise, and responsibility. I walk through what actually goes into a strong retainer: strategy, conversion tracking, reporting, creative oversight, testing, and ongoing optimization. If you’re doing real work, your pricing should reflect it.

I also share how we structure retainers at YRV, why I don’t negotiate pricing, and how chasing small discounts often leads to the worst clients. We talk about when it makes sense to charge more, when to walk away, and why “cheap” clients usually end up being the most expensive.

This episode is a reminder that expert media buying is a skill — not a commodity — and if you don’t respect your own value, no one else will.

Clicks to Customers: The Case for Single-Objective Campaigns

In this episode, I break down one of the most common mistakes I see in Google Ads accounts: trying to make one campaign do too many things.

I explain why campaigns should have one clear objective — not calls, form fills, store visits, and purchases all mixed together — and how blending goals confuses the algorithm and kills performance.

Using real client examples from a medical center and a live entertainment business, I walk through:

• Why campaign prioritization matters more than tactics

• How mixing conversions (calls, store visits, clicks) dilutes results

• Why “ringing the register” should be the primary goal for revenue-driven accounts

• How simplifying conversion actions dramatically improved performance

• The danger of weekend-only vs weekday-only campaigns

• Why ad scheduling and bid adjustments outperform split campaigns

• How removing low-intent traffic (like late-night “zombie clicks”) improves lead quality

I also share a high-level breakdown of how I use time-on-site, scroll depth, and high-intent keywords to identify real buyers — not bots or low-quality clicks — and how that strategy led to stronger conversions and better call quality without relying on click-to-call ads.

The core takeaway: Every campaign should do one job extremely well.
When you stop confusing the algorithm and focus on one clear conversion goal, performance improves fast.

Why AI Won’t Kill Google Ads — But It Will Kill Bad PPC

In this episode, we break down what ChatGPT ads actually mean for Google Ads, PPC buyers, and the future of digital advertising.

While AI ads are starting to appear inside ChatGPT, they’re not replacing Google Search — they’re changing where and how discovery happens. ChatGPT is becoming a research and decision-support layer, not a replacement for transactional intent. High-intent actions like local services, purchases, and brand searches will still live on Google.

We cover why ChatGPT ads will favor education, comparison, and long-form decision making, while Google Ads continues to dominate purchase intent, local search, and conversions. We also explain why only large advertisers currently have access to ChatGPT ads, and why this mirrors platforms like LinkedIn — big budgets, high consideration, slow sales cycles.

The episode dives into:

• Why conversion tracking matters more than ever

• How value-based bidding beats cheap clicks

• Why bad PPC accounts will fail faster in the AI era

• How mid-funnel actions (time on site, form progress, checkout steps) are now the real signal

• Why traffic-only strategies are officially dead

The takeaway:
AI doesn’t kill Google Ads — it exposes weak strategy. The winners will be advertisers who understand intent, conversion quality, and full-funnel measurement, not just clicks.

Stop Selling Hours: The Real Way Agencies Scale

In this episode, I break down a real conversation I had with a fellow agency owner who’s early in his journey and already doing well — but making a critical mistake: selling consultations instead of retainers.

We talk about why hourly consulting undervalues your expertise, attracts the wrong clients, and prevents real business growth. I explain how true scaling requires ownership, ongoing optimization, testing, and accountability — not one-off calls or “teaching moments.”

I also dive into why audits are fine (when properly priced), why showing your entire process for free is a mistake, and how consultations often become a way for clients to extract value without committing. The big takeaway: if you’re serious about scaling businesses and delivering real results, you should be operating on retainers, not hourly calls.

Your knowledge has value. Don’t cheapen it.

Great Agencies Plan 10-15 Moves Ahead of Their Competitors

In this episode, Yousaf Yunes breaks down why strong agencies don’t just report on the past—they plan aggressively for the future. Inspired by the idea of thinking 10–15 moves ahead, Yousaf explains how quarterly planning, pre-planned promotions, and forward-looking strategy turn media buyers into true growth partners.

He walks through real client examples across beauty and sports equipment brands, showing how early planning for seasonal moments (Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, summer, holidays) prevents last-minute scrambling and leads to better creative, cleaner funnels, and smarter budget allocation. Yousaf also explains how to balance top-, mid-, and bottom-funnel objectives, when to push spend versus when to build demand, and why remarketing and experimentation should be planned months in advance.

The core takeaway: stop obsessing over last month’s ROAS. Agencies that win focus on forecasting, fixing delayed problems early, and clearly showing clients what’s coming next—quarter by quarter. That’s how you build trust, retention, and long-term revenue.

The AI Hype in Paid Media (And Why Human Buyers Still Win)

In this episode, you break down the real role AI plays in paid media today—especially where the hype ends and human expertise still matters. While AI-generated creative is exploding and becoming cheaper, faster, and more accessible, it’s also producing a flood of low-quality, misleading, or outright wrong content. That creates risk—not leverage—when AI is used blindly in advertising.

Yousaf explains why AI works best as an analysis and pattern-recognition tool, not as a replacement for experienced media buyers. Used correctly, AI helps spot trends, diagnose creative fatigue, and surface insights buyers might miss. Used incorrectly—especially by novice buyers—it can send campaigns in the wrong direction fast.

The episode also addresses the myth that AI will replace media buyers. Platforms still rely on humans to design funnels, choose the right objectives, interpret conversion signals, and take responsibility when performance breaks. This is where expert buyers win: understanding conversion architecture, GTM vs GA4 roles, funnel leakage, value-based optimization, and how paid media connects to email, remarketing, and long-term revenue.

The core takeaway is simple: AI amplifies expertise—it doesn’t create it. The buyers who succeed are the ones who master conversions, tracking, and full-funnel strategy, and use AI as a tool—not a crutch.
