In this game-changing episode of Dropping Bombs, eight-figure marketing agency founder Eric Winegard exposes why 90% of businesses are burning cash on fake marketing that doesn't work. From his high school dropout origins to building Rare Blue Moon Marketing into a powerhouse agency, Eric reveals the brutal difference between placing ads and actual marketing—split testing, creative fatigue cycles, and building killer campaigns that scale beyond six figures monthly.

But here's where it gets real: Eric drops the exact framework for turning marketing into your best salesperson, why personal branding will separate winners from losers in the AI era, and the minimum investment required to see real ROI. Whether you're spending $500 monthly getting nothing or ready to scale to $50K monthly like his top clients—this episode is your wake-up call to stop playing small and start marketing like the pros.
