Google or Facebook? Which one actually works for lead generation—and which one is quietly draining your ad budget?

This week on the Maven Marketing Podcast, Brandon and Caleb settle the score between the internet’s two biggest lead machines. With over a decade and millions spent across both platforms, they break down what’s working in 2024 and which media fits your business best.

If you’re tired of expensive clicks with no calls…
 If your Facebook leads never pick up the phone…
 If you're stuck choosing between high cost or low quality…

This episode will show you how to fix the equation.

You’ll learn:

  • Which platform delivers Today Customers—and which one builds Tomorrow Customers
  • How to calculate real lead value (not just cost)
  • Why your ad strategy should match the customer’s mindset
  • When to scale Google, when to lean on Meta, and why most winners do both

It’s not about the media—it’s about matching the message to the moment. And that’s how you win.

Click play and turn your ad dollars into dependable, scalable growth.
