There are no 'secret hacks' or 'quick wins' when it comes to running successful ads.

The only shortcut here is that you won't waste time failing at the basics.

Don't be fooled by the BS that some 'marketing gurus' put out there claiming you can 'cheat the system' or 'break the algorithm'.

The only way to win is with a clear plan - and that's what we help you put together!

Don't let Return-on-Ad-Spend be your enemy...

Everything in this course gears you up to be able to run profitable ads.

What do we mean by profitable? It's all in the ROAS!

At Playfair Marketing, the agency behind Digital Marketing Pro, we consistently achieve a return-on-ad-spend (ROAS) of between 4 and 10 for our customers.

What does that mean? It means for every £1 spent, £4-10 is made in revenue.

It isn't some hack or silver bullet, or even luck that gets these results.

It's KNOWLEDGE. It's INSIGHTS. It's TIME.

It's TESTING (TESTING, TESTING, TESTING...).

So many people don't appreciate this - and this is why we created Succeed with Digital Advertising. We provide the core knowledge and insights into best practices and possibilities.

We help you invest the time in creating your ad plan, armed with this knowledge. Then we set you on a journey to evaluate and test your way to that profitability

Invest in the knowledge, insights, time and testing and you WILL succeed.

That's why we've created the Digital Marketing Pro 'Success or Money Back' Guarantee.

If you've completed the course, filled out your ad plan, created your ads, consistently tested and refined, and you're still not seeing results (this won't happen by the way), we'll happily refund your full course fee.*

That's how confident we are that you'll find success. It takes investment and time, but those seemingly 'lofty' ROAS numbers become so much more attainable if you put in the time.

It's worth repeating:

There are no 'hacks', 'shortcuts', or 'tricks' that cheat the system. Running successful ads takes investment in resources and time.

THIS is your resource. NOW is your time.

A note from Digital Marketing Pro Founder Rob Lyon:

On March 22nd 2017, my life changed forever.

When the dust had settled after being inches from death during the Westminster Bridge terror attack, I asked my wife what she wanted for our future. With two young children at home, her answer was simple: to be able to be at home more and do what makes me happy.

At the time I was a successful but unfulfilled Global Marketing Director, so I decided to set up Playfair Marketing and use the skills I'd honed to build my own business. My marketing knowledge enabled me to work to my own schedule and do what I loved, helping people succeed and be as happy as I’d become.

My team and I have helped transform the fortunes of many through digital advertising, so we decided to package 20+ years of experience into an online course so that you can do the same for your business, or indeed become a marketing expert yourself and follow my path to happiness.

FAQs

I've tried digital advertising tactics from other sources. Why is yours different, or better?

There's a whole load of BS out there:

Guru's claiming they can make you a millionaire (when they don't know your brand, market, cashflow situation, or anything else relevant).

One-hit 'tricks' and 'quick wins' that might have worked in a very specific situation but will never be transferrable or - more importantly - scalable.

We're being transparent here - the experts at Digital Marketing Pro have found success through clear planning, good execution, and methodical testing to FIND success. And that's what we teach in this course.

I'm in a specific industry, with a niche product or service. How 'generic' are the strategies in this course?

No matter your industry or niche - you'll have a product or service that adds value, and you'll have an audience of potential customers. This course is designed to establish that value, and communicate it in the best way to your best audience.

Succeed with Digital Advertising helps you find your audience, and move them towards taking a valuable action - whether that be a sale, booking, contact - this course will help you achieve those actions.

Is this for B2C only?

No! The same applies as the above - you have a product or service, and you have an audience you need to provide that product or service to. You'll find your audience, and communicate to them in the right way, setting out on a journey to find profitable results.

Can I do this alone, or do I need help?

You're never alone with Digital Marketing Pro! Of course we're in the video classes helping you on the way, and you've got the Digital Marketing Pro Facebook Community for extra support.

But - this is about creating ad campaigns - and actual ads that go within. We provide a lot of advice on how to easily create ads, but if you're looking for something like a high-production video, you'll need help if you don't have the equipment and skills yourself.

Playfair Marketing, the team behind Digital Marketing Pro, offer video production services should you need help!

I'm a COMPLETE newbie to all this. Do I need to read up on marketing/advertising first?

Not at all, this course is designed to help anyone and everyone who needs it! We'll take you through the principles of marketing and advertising before getting into any deeper topics.

You'll at least have an understanding of how to communicate to your audience, as well the 'advertising funnel' (the journey your potential customer takes toward becoming an actual customer).

Do I need to spend a lot of money to find advertising success?

We're not going to lie - growth online requires spend. But success is about finding profitability at a reasonable amount of spend before scaling to huge budgets.

There's a whole module within the course on budgeting, which includes a free return-on-ad-spend calculator so you can understand your profitability and set spend/sales targets.

Isn't the world of digital marketing constantly evolving? Won't this course go out of date?

A lot of what is in the course are fundamentals that will likely never change a huge amount. However, we will be keeping an eye and updating wherever we need to.

We'll also be communicating and taking steer from the Digital Marketing Pro community, which is an amazing knowledge supplement to the course.

Do I need to be a 'techie' to run ads?

Creativity is better than technical know-how!

Our HOW-TO video guides take you through the ad platform processes, and our classes on creative, messaging and copywriting will guide you on best practices.

What countries/nationalities/cultures is this course for?

Everyone! The principles within will apply to any business in any location.

Is this course worth the price?

The many hours we've sunk into producing this course, plus the insights and experience we've included within, to us are priceless. But we've reasonably priced this course to make it accessible for all. We've included many extras and bonuses so that you can see the value in many different forms.

But ultimately, when you do succeed and grow because of this course, you'll certainly be telling us that it was worth the price.

How long will the course take to complete?

As an on-demand course, you'll be able to go through as fast or slow as you like!

There is a sweet spot though - hammering through the lessons all in a couple of days will likely be information overload, and you'll forget some bits. Equally, weeks between each class will take you too long and you'll forget information in-between classes!

Find your right learning pace, and remember you can always re-watch videos as needed.

If I buy this course, can I access it immediately?

Yes, you can! As soon as payment is complete, you'll be emailed your login credentials and you'll be able to access the course immediately.

I can't afford the full payment. Can I split payments?

Yes, you can choose to split the course fee over 3 months.
