Those are incredibly comprehensive methodologies. And yet digital agencies still suffer from feast or famine months, inconsistent results and timelines on projects, quality control, revisions, and much more. It’s […]

Ever wonder what the most successful agencies did differently than everyone else? Was it luck, skill, hard work, the industry they chose, or something else? Through my consulting work at Revenue Boost, I’ve worked with and taught over 400+ agencies how to scale their business. From this, I’ve seen consistent patterns & traits in the […]
TOPLINE: Inhibitory repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the supplementary motor area (SMA) was associated with significant improvement in psychomotor slowing in psychosis — a condition for which there is currently no treatment — new data suggest. METHODOLOGY: The double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled trial included 88 adult patients (mean age, 36 years) with schizophrenia spectrum disorders […]
Muscle injuries are common in the active population, and they cause the majority of player leaves in the world of sport. Depending on the severity, recovery of muscle function is quite slow and may require surgery, medication and rehabilitation. Now, a study led by the University of Barcelona reveals a strategy to improve and accelerate […]
Page conversion rates have ALWAYS been a problem. The simple fact is most people don’t convert even on the most optimized pages. What’s why traditional retargeting on ad networks has been so dang powerful. While retargeted leads come cheap, they still aren’t free. Worse, you’re back competing against your competition in the ol’ ad auction […]
Adding pembrolizumab (Keytruda) to concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with high-risk locally advanced cervical cancer does not harm quality of life, according to patient-reported outcome analyses from the KEYNOTE-A18 trial. Progression-free survival data from the trial, reported at the 2023 meeting of the European Society for Medical Oncology, showed a 30% reduction in the risk for […]
In a recent study published in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), researchers from Illinois, the United States of America (US), reported the incidence of five measles cases among unvaccinated children who resided in the same building but did not socialize with each other. Notes from the Field: Measles Outbreak — Cook County, Illinois, October–November […]
