    [electronic tone] Ever invest in something that seemed incredible at first, but didn't live up to the hype? Like those $5 roses at a gas station, or a secondhand piece of technology that breaks in the first 10 minutes. Marketers know that feeling. We optimize for the numbers that look great, impressions, reach, and reacts. But when they don't show revenue, well, that's a not-so-great conversation with the CFO. LinkedIn has a word for that, bullspend. Now you can invest in what looks good to your CFO. LinkedIn Ads generates the highest ROAS of all major ad networks. You'll reach the right buyers because you can target by company, industry, job title, and more. So cut the bullspend. Advertise on LinkedIn, the network that works for you. Spend $250 on your first campaign on LinkedIn Ads and get a 250 credit for the next one. Just go to linkedin.com/broadcast. That's linkedin.com/broadcast. Terms and conditions apply.

    [electronic tone] Make Mother's Day even more special at Whole Foods Market. Kick off brunch or dinner with quality cheese and charcuterie with no synthetic nitrates. Then go seafood. There's an abundance on sale at Whole Foods Market, where it's all sustainable wild-caught or responsibly farmed. At the bakery, grab seasonal treats like their strawberry pretzel cream pie.
