Isaac Rudansky

Isaac started AdVenture Media in 2012 while finishing a master's degree in industrial and organizational psychology at Hofstra University. The first client was a dental office in Queens. The agency has since grown into a team that runs paid search, paid social and creative for brands including Forbes, AMC Networks and Hanes.

Teaching has run alongside the agency from the start. His beginner's Google Ads tutorial on YouTube passed a million views in 2014, and in 2015 he published a Google Ads course on Udemy that is still one of the platform's best sellers: more than 237,000 students and a 4.7 rating from over 55,000 reviews. Courses on Meta advertising and landing page design followed, along with classes on CreativeLive.

PPC Hero named him to its Top 50 Most Influential PPC Experts in 2020 and its Top 25 in 2021.

In 2026 he turned that teaching habit toward AI. He built AdVenture's Claude workshop series, starting with Claude Code for Beginners, and teaches Claude Cowork and Claude Code live on Zoom. His style is to build in front of the room, show the draft that doesn't work, and fix it with everyone watching.

Isaac is also a novelist. His middle-grade fantasy, Georgie Summers and the Scribes of Scatterplot, was picked up in a three-book deal in 2025.
