My background is not in digital marketing but in telling stories that cut through noise,a skill that transfers well to performance marketing. I write on this site about how pay-per-call advertising and lead generation create measurable outcomes for advertisers and publishers across verticals like insurance, legal, and home improvement. Having spent decades reporting on what drives human action, I bring a journalist’s eye to compliance, fraud prevention, and the real-time analytics that make campaigns profitable. Here, I aim to cut the fluff and focus on what actually moves ROI, from call filtering to the FCC One-to-One Consent Rule.
