August 9 Question: Your CFO wants you to discontinue your paid search program because she believes that customers will simply leverage natural search instead, saving the company a ton of cash. Your CFO cites a report from Woodside Research suggesting that 70% of clicks will still happen if paid search is discontinued. How do you respond to her request?
Great, let's give it go. Start with a small sample first / range of search terms and see what happens to those after a period of time. If that's successful then continue to expand in increments. Nothing ventured nothing gained!
