Ever wondered if webinars are a relic of 2019 or still a conversion machine in 2025? On this raw episode of the CMH Show, I break it down: Yes, no, maybe so.

Why You're Screwing Yourself by Ignoring Ads (And How to Fix It Without Going Bro-Mode)
10/1/2025
Tired of grinding on content creation with zero scale? In this no-BS guide, I break down why ditching ads is killing your business—and how to blend them with organic content for real ROI without the burnout. Drawing from the CMH Show podcast, we dive into the Content to Customers Method: Use your best-performing posts as R&D gold, flip winners into low-budget ads ($10-20/day), and build simple sales funnels that convert. No more "bro-mode" ad obsession or endless organic hustling—it's about qualified offers, repetition that builds trust, and market cycles that demand a megaphone now.
From client wins (like 6x ROAS for newbies) to differentiation hacks (think senior dog supplements that sell life, not just product), you'll get actionable steps to acquire buyers, enhance offers, and break free from the social media recession. Profitability over popularity, always.
