Quotes

“I would say that anyone that searches for Facebook will go and then click on Facebook, right? There is no other solution if you’re searching for Facebook. So by me clicking on the paid ad for Facebook doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ve now convinced me to go and use Facebook.”

“I think agencies are the best when you want to learn fast how to progress.”

“In one point, you need to trust your instincts. So the first incrementality test will give you, let’s say, half of the reality. Right? The second will give you another 30%. But, you will never reach to 100% sure that your campaigns are incremental.”
