Summary
What is a "pixel-less" ad campaign?
On today's episode, Kasim talks to Depesh Mandia, a wicked smart Facebook ads expert and the founder of SM Commerce. They discuss a new way of running ads - what Depesh calls PTSD. If you've been running Facebook ads for the last 12 months, you've probably encountered a Pixel-less Traffic System Design (PTSD). This is essentially an ad formula that doesn't need pixel tracking. And when you don't need pixel tracking, iOS14 isn't an issue anymore.
Listen in to learn how you can use a "pixel-less" ad campaign to generate greater control, visibility, and accuracy in your ads - as well as better retarget your ideal clients without necessarily taking them out of Facebook.

- The "pixel-less" ad campaign
- This week's nugget: How to use Facebook's built-in reporting tool
- The loss of data as a result of the iOS 14 update
- A content-first approach to marketing
- Why you need to stop taking people out of Facebook
- The best way to learn about ads: spend your own money on ads

| 0:06.8 | If you've been a PT listener for any period of time, you know that we talk about top of funnel |
| 0:10.5 | all the time and how challenging it is for you to get quality top of funnel clients or leads |
| 0:17.9 | or customers and then convert them typically at bottom of funnel. |
| 0:22.9 | Well, TV advertising is one of those areas that we haven't discussed here on PT all that much. |
