In this YouTube monologue, Austin LeClear claims to have generated $118,000 in profit at a 300%+ return on ad spend for a client by siphoning revenue from a top competitor using Google Performance Max campaigns. He outlines a three‑step tactical framework: (1) launch a competitor‑term campaign that captures users searching for the rival’s deals, (2) craft ad copy that highlights unique features and uses indirect comparison language without naming the competitor (to stay within policy), and (3) build a dedicated landing page that places the client’s product side‑by‑side with the competitor’s, listing feature‑by‑feature benefits. LeClear cites $50 million in total client revenue generated via Performance Max, and offers a free practical Performance Max course to viewers who comment “PMAX”. The video serves both as a case study of aggressive competitive targeting and a promotional hook for his educational material.

I legally stole $118,000 at a 300% plus return on ad spend for one of my clients from their top competitor. I'm going to give you the exact strategy that I use to generate these results. So number one, we set up a specific competitor campaign targeting those competitor terms. Someone who's looking for a deal from that competitor when the competitor doesn't actually offer a deal at the time. But we did work tremendously for us. All right. Ad Copy. Our ad copy called out our unique features and benef. We also tested Compare Copy but we made sure we did not use the competitor name in the ad since that would be a violation. But you can get very creative with the ad copy. So which bed is better? Compare Nectar versus other brands. You'll notice they didn't use a specific brand there. Number three, we built a specific landing page with side by side comparison of our product versus the competitor. And we listed all the features and benefits of our product compared to them. We have generated over $50 million in revenue for our clients using Performance Max campaigns. We decided we're going to download our knowledge of Performance Max campaigns into a free, easy, practical course and just give it away to the community. Comment PMAX below and I'll send you the free PMAX course directly to your DMs. Go grab this free course and I'll see you inside.
