Joshua:

I've never heard a business say, I don't want any more money.

2

:

the higher, this is the bigger, this,

the more money you're going to get.

3

:

So how do we get that or those

eggs, a lot bigger or more often?

4

:

we take a look at the chicken.

5

:

Hey, how's it going everyone?

6

:

This is Josh with

another Google ads video.

7

:

And today we're gonna be

talking about a chicken.

8

:

But not just any chicken, this chicken

is very business and puts his business

9

:

head on and gets to work at trying

to make as much money as possible.

10

:

But with all jokes aside, this is

a, metaphor, for business metrics.

11

:

You have your blended numbers slash

backend for the chicken itself.

12

:

Then you have the in app numbers, which

could be meta Amazon or Google ads

13

:

platform, what you see inside there.

14

:

That's the in app numbers here.

15

:

Then you have the golden standard

of revenue, that golden egg.

16

:

I've never had a farmer say,

Hey, I got too many eggs, or

17

:

I got, too many large eggs.

18

:

I've never heard a business say,

I don't want any more money.

19

:

the higher this is, the bigger this

the more money you're gonna get.

20

:

So how do we get that or those eggs?

21

:

a lot bigger or more often.

22

:

we take a look at the chicken.

23

:

And basically how business started

out is you start feeding the chicken.

24

:

New customers goes into new

orders, goes in, new cost required.

25

:

New customer goes in a

burr, AOV, total orders.

26

:

Then you start getting into kind of

repeat customer rates, open email

27

:

rate, customer lists, and LTV.

28

:

these are all interconnected

to each other.

29

:

They all share the same blood of,

All the stuff that's digested kind

30

:

of spreads across the chicken.

31

:

And if you take one of these

away, let's say opening, right?

32

:

You don't know what's going on there.

33

:

maybe it's really poor and you can be

missing out on making this egg slightly

34

:

bigger than, it could have been.

35

:

And same goes with me or

nac, we take away nac.

36

:

Then how much are you spinning

on a new client to come in

37

:

or a new customer to come in?

38

:

Which could affect

overall numbers as well.

39

:

It starts to dwin it down

into all these other areas.

40

:

'cause it could be the heart

line or the heart of the chicken.

41

:

And if it's not pumping out, enough

blood to all these other horses.

42

:

I could start taking a dive, that's

how the revenue or the golden standard

43

:

works is the health of the chicken.

44

:

Let's take these in app numbers.

45

:

And I consider these like

the droppings of, numbers.

46

:

Like you have CPA clicks,

CPC rows, conversion rate.

47

:

So it's not saying that

these numbers are bad.

48

:

you could definitely use these

numbers for trends and saying, okay,

49

:

like our rows dropped by a lot.

50

:

What happened there?

51

:

did we make any changes?

52

:

but we want to make sure that we're

not using these as a standard for

53

:

any one platform in particular.

54

:

let's take, for instance,

let's do some tests here.

55

:

We have Meta Amazon Google and

think of these as food sources

56

:

for this chicken right here.

57

:

let's say we want to scale up Meta,

it's getting really good ROAS.

58

:

So let's throw ROAS on there.

59

:

this is the formula for basically

ROAS, we scaled it up and

60

:

we got some unknowns there.

61

:

we know that we are getting some new

customers, but if we just take a look at

62

:

ROAS, it could be a lot of remarketing.

63

:

It could be a lot of repeat customers

that's scooping up and we're feeding

64

:

that chicken that type of, mix.

65

:

are we looking at the backend?

66

:

Are we taking a look at new

orders or new costs required?

67

:

Customer, might drop, if we're

just looking at ROAS because

68

:

it's so heavily in marketing and

then LTV might jump up slightly.

69

:

but in the long run, if this is not

being fed, then it's going to start

70

:

going and messing with everything else.

71

:

And then your revenue is going to

start dying off, and the eggs are

72

:

going to get smaller and smaller.

73

:

we don't want to do that, but the

good thing about that is we did an

74

:

isolated test with that just now.

75

:

We know that if we scaled up meta,

So let's say, okay, we know that,

76

:

maybe Google ads pushing a lot

of cold traffic, cause we have

77

:

a lot of good terms in there.

78

:

We're using some shopping campaign

and whatnot to just push cold

79

:

alone, but it doesn't look like it's

getting a lot of roads, but we want

80

:

to go ahead and test and see if we

scale it up or if we make a change.

81

:

what will it affect the chicken versus

just looking at these, droppings here

82

:

and saying, that's it, that's, that

CPA, that row is decreased by a lot.

83

:

We don't want to do that.

84

:

We want to feed the chicken, let

it go through its process and say,

85

:

okay, is INCAC up, the new orders

come in, is the MRR stabilized?

86

:

and then you can start looking at LTV.

87

:

Sometimes how did that

change when we did this?

88

:

more of an isolated test of that.

89

:

But if we start going and saying,

okay, we're going to increase

90

:

Google ads at the same time, we're

going to throw an Amazon ads.

91

:

We're going to chop that.

92

:

And then we're going to

increase, meta ads as well.

93

:

now you have all of this type of

food source going into the chicken.

94

:

And all these numbers start changing.

95

:

if revenue goes up, okay.

96

:

what actually affected the chicken?

97

:

Was it the Amazon blend?

98

:

was it Google then was it both of them

or if it dropped, what made it worse?

99

:

Was it Meta?

100

:

Was it Google?

101

:

So you really want to focus on

isolated tasks and not just throw in

102

:

a bunch of things because we can make

changes and say, Hey, maybe we're

103

:

impressed on a certain type of outcome.

104

:

We need this right away.

105

:

it's more of the long game of saying,

Hey, we need to really make sure that

106

:

these that chicken's being fed properly.

107

:

And saying, okay, that revenue is coming

out, solid gold versus like this murky

108

:

stuff right here where it says, okay,

click CPA, CPC went down or up, versus

109

:

what's actually going on in the back end.

110

:

So that's my little spiel, on the chicken

strategy, but, I'll probably start diving

111

:

into these a little bit more in depth.

112

:

I know this is like a general video

of kind of how things are set up.

113

:

And the, process of making sure

that we do isolated tests to make

114

:

sure that these numbers are nice and

healthy to get that revenue going.

115

:

so that, yeah, that's what I got.

116

:

Have a good one.
