Guest Quotes:
"Don't try to go head to head. If you know that you're in a saturated market and that everybody else is running Facebook ads, you're probably not gonna win, or you might win and it might be really cost prohibitive to win." - Jill
"We're not going to win on brand spend. We're not trying to target every customer or show an impression to every person in the U.S. We're much more about precision and discipline in our experimentation approach." - Annie
