EP318 - The £50 Bid Disaster ft Chris Nightingale
Manage episode 484049892 series 2434262

In this episode of PPC Live, host Anu interviews Chris Nightingale, founder of Can-Do Digital Marketing, about a significant mistake early in his PPC career and how he turned it around. Chris shares the story of accidentally increasing bids by £50 instead of 50p, causing massive overspending for a client. He discusses his immediate panic response, how he addressed the situation professionally, and the surprising support he received from his manager.
Key takeaways discussed:
- Good management matters - Supportive leadership during crises can turn failures into learning experiences
- Ask for forgiveness, not permission - Testing and trying new approaches drives innovation, even with occasional failures
- Create safeguards - Use tools and automation to prevent common mistakes and implement double-checks for high-risk actions
- Start testing with smaller budgets - When possible, experiment with lower-budget accounts to minimize financial impact
- Use AI strategically - AI works best for backend tasks rather than customer-facing content like ad copy
- Failures aren't discussed enough - The industry focuses on successes while hiding the numerous failures behind them
- Turn mistakes into long-term wins - Chris built a stronger client relationship by demonstrating accountability and delivering exceptional results in subsequent months
