YouTube channel: Miles & Bob - PPC Mastery · checked Metadata checked Content review date not recorded

Seth Gorton discusses extending an agency's responsibility from ad clicks into landing pages, conversion-rate optimisation and CRM workflows, alongside how AI changes delivery and staffing.

Agency OperationsAutomation and AIGoogle AdsLanding pages and CRO

Commercial context: PPC Hub and related systems promoted by the publisher.

Review limits: Agency growth and productivity claims are the guest's account, not independently audited results. The interview promotes the host's community and systems; recommendations about staffing are context-specific.

Research notes and useful timestamps

Why explore it: The strongest owner-specific choice: it connects the service offer to outcomes after the click and raises concrete questions about staffing, pricing and delivery quality.

Make it useful: Write the business question before exporting data; compare how the audit's evidence would support a client decision.
