Eid al-Adha (Feast of Sacrifice) - August 12, 2019


So... its HOLIDAY!
NO WORK WITH PAY!
(^_^)



That window, I close the curtain every time I start to work because the sun shinning through that wall gives 3x shines and heat inside my room. :)

Anyway, today I'm letting the sun shine IN... started my day a bit late... around 0700 instead of quarter to 0600 and usually I just rest and watch Netflix... but today... I am studying Amazon Advertising...

Inspired by someone who asked me:
"I see you're Google Adwords Specialist before ... Have you tried Amazon Advertising?"

In my mind was like... really! there is also Amazon Advertising? I thought that Amazon website was covered by Google Ads... but hmmm interesting... so its like Fb Ads... runs in Facebook platforms and Ebay Ads and Amazon Ads runs on their own websites, right!

Well I replied:
I haven't tried Amazon Ads... but will explore on it..

and the person was like:
oh I think you get by on it pretty quick, cause the hardest Ads to manipulate is Google!

I was thinking...
Not really sure about that statement... to be honest... Google is the easiest for me... because you can manually control everything to the last details and settings...

For example in Fb Ads... in my experience, some can't be controlled like the spent per keyword, and how to show the keywords = will it be broad, phrase or exact match, Fb is like showing it All Broad Match! The only thing you can control is Demographics!
NOT ALL kinds of business can be done in Facebook Ads.. it is just so hard to explain in some client, they insist of running Fb Ads and when you tell them honestly = you won't get that expected sales in there with your kind of market... and the reply you receive is... well I think your not good enough in marketing!
oh ok fine ... :)

In marketing the number ONE RULE is to know your AUDIENCE and TARGET MARKET.

Not all platforms offer the same audiences, so be very specific, specially if you're into uptight budget.

I remember the very first client assigned to me in Google Ads, the business was Trucking.. he owns a trucking business in USA that runs cargo from certain state to specified different state... the Ads was hiring License Truck Driver... during that time I was not yet a Google Adwords certified ... but because I was interested to learn... I read the Google Adwords manual... (^_^)
yeah its a good sleeping pills for me...
Really! During those times there was not much Video Tutorials most was explained in TEXT... and if a video tutorials was given.. the speaker words were in marketing language, technical Acronym "KPI", "CTR", "CPC", "Impression", etc...

I was like WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???

... not to mention the calculation ... with formula given... to 30.4 and etc...
ahahaha gives me the headache!

... it took me months and months to get the hang of it... also I need to learn the client target market "licensed truck driver" ...
Well I do not know a single thing about Driver's License!

Then learned that there are different kinds of Driver License in USA!
oh my! oh my!

That's when I realize the client Adwords account is a messed because all the keywords he is trying to target are all wrong!
No wonder he is spending more than 5k USD a month in Adwords...

When I deactivated the wrong campaigns and created a new one... during the first month the 5k plus becomes 4k... then on 2nd month it becomes 3k... till the 3rd month it becomes 1.5k monthly spending.
And the Ads were delivering well the client have lots of license driver applied to his company...

It happens in span of time 1 to 3 months.. Proper daily/weekly analysis and adjusting the targeted keywords... it never happens that instantly!

Usually in Adwords... when the settings are right in Search Ads, everything follows...
Search ads have the most competitive algorithm = and the cheapest!

Anyway, I need to get back in learning Amazon Ads... LOLs

The day before 911

Today is September 10, 2008 it's the day before 911 or September 11 ... the most memorable date in history... Anyway, my topic is not about the historical event but rather bout my life the day before 911 of 2008 Outside the office building is the highway with blue sky and the mountains are visible... Sometimes it makes me think... life is really like a highway... like this picture... hindi maiiwasan ang pagsubok mountains ahead of us symbolize problems and obstacles... but if we look up (in the Lord God) you will see that He is watching us with clear blue sky and eternal life can be achieve if we stay tough. Last night (nang sumakay ako ng jeep pauwi) there were so many thoughts in my mind... bakit nga bah I really don't feel like someone really cares for me... or may hindi ko lang naramdaman kasi all I can see are yung officemate na sobrang magreklamo etc... daming salita ... then all of the sudden... there was this jeep in front of me ... with the sign "Jesus Cares f...

List of 2009 Working and None working Holidays

I'm really curious for this year proclaimed holidays specially the SPECIAL NONE WORKING holidays (^_^) do you want to know those holidays that the MalacaƱang has released? all you have to do is read... Proclamation No. 1669 signed by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo last December 24 — could still be amended, meaning more "holiday economics" announcements from the administration. Businessmen, many of whom were surprised when Mrs. Arroyo extended the recent holiday break by adding January 2, 2009 at the last minute, welcomed the list. They urged the government, however, to be more circumspect. Based on the proclamation, the following are this year’s 2009 regular holidays: * April 9 (Maundy Thursday); * April 10 (Good Friday); * April 6 (the Monday nearest to April 9 which is Araw ng Kagitingan or Day of Valor); * May 1 (Labor Day); * June 12 (Independence Day); * August 31 (National Heroes Day); * November 30 (Bonifacio Day); * December 25 (Christmas Day); and * December ...

My Ice 9 web Blogspot

I just can't believe it just this morning one of my officemate told me my blog doesn't exist anymore... when I check my blogger this was the screenshot... When I click the restore... this will show... I was so shock what did I do to and put my blog in spam?
