[Video] Be Smarter Than Mick

Mick is the not-so-smart character in my son’s book from school. We had a good laugh, but there was a lesson to be learned too.

Here’s today’s quick video:

Hi! How are you going?

Just a quick one today. So my five-year-old son has just started reading and he’s been bringing home these readers with these stories from school. This one I found really funny, so it was called Mick and it starts off with “This is Mick” then on the next page “Mick is Rosie Rat’s friend” and then the next page is “Mick is bigger than Rosie Rat” and then “Mick is taller than Rosie Rat” and then “Mick is stronger than Rosie Rat” and then “Mick runs faster than Rosie Rat” and then in the last page Mick who is definitely showing off, runs straight in to this stop sign and Rosie Rat says, “I am smarter than Mick.”

This one really made me laugh and in fact my, my son when he was reading it, he got to the last page and he was like rolling around on the floor holding his tummy it was so cute!

But this does actually relate to your Google Analytics as well because you can definitely be faster, stronger, you can get more traffic, you can, you can be bigger but if you want to be smarter then you want to use some data to drive what ads you’re running and what conversions you’re tracking so that you can get a better return on investment from your marketing.

So do take a lesson from Mick and Rosie Rat and try to be the smarter one or at least you could be both. You could be stronger and smarter rather than just stronger.

Alright, have a wonderful day. Bye!

What do you do to make your marketing more intelligent? Do you use real data to inform your decisions? Or do you just try to be bigger, faster, stronger — but perhaps sometimes run into trouble?

Hi Petra, Hope you are well, I checked out the Google Analytics and all I can say is AWESOME. You have essentially doubled her revenue in a month and the Google Ads seem to be popping off!

I have been working with Petra for over a year now after changing from a much larger digital marketing provider and I could not be more pleased with the service and results my business is achieving.

With my previous providers I felt disconnected with limited communication. Petra on the other hand provides me with knowledge and information in a language I can understand that helps me make informed decisions not just about digital marketing but also my e-commerce business as a whole.

Petra has helped me navigate seasonal drops in trade creating a strategy that helped us grow and establish a healthy position in the market. It is an absolute joy to work with someone who loves what they do. I have complete confidence in recommending Petra to anyone considering e-commerce digital marketing, she is efficient, trusted and a true professional.

Your attention to detail is beyond what I had expected. The detail of the data is incredible. The best part though was to learn the profile demographic - which is very different to whom I think I've been trying to target through social.

Petra was instrumental in pulling all our clinic's web analytics into one easy to read, dynamic report that's accessible to me at any time, and works with our EXACT booking system.

This has allowed me to see, at a glance, what marketing initiatives are working, need tweaking, or changing altogether, saving me both time and money. I can't recommend her or her analytic services enough.
