"The Best Marketing is Polarizing” with Chris Orlob (CEO, pclub.io)

Reed Between the Lines

If you don’t know Chris Orlob, you should.

Not only is he one of my first mentors in marketing, he’s the Co-Founder and CEO of pclub.io where he’s trained more than 10,000 SaaS and tech salespeople on SaaS sales calls with the #1 online course platform for B2B sellers. He’s also the former Head of Product Marketing and Head of Customer Sales at Gong, where he helped grow their ARR from $200k to $200M ARR, and garnered a $7.2B valuation in less than six years. And not to mention, he’s a content king in his own right with more than 128k followers on LinkedIn.

In this episode, we’re talking about being polarizing, powerful writing techniques, and taking lessons from some of the most successful, radical marketers out there. Here are a few of my favorite takeaways:

• Be intentionally polarizing with your marketing 10% of the time to get (more) attention in your marketing.
• To become a stronger writer, be more specific with your language and word choice. That’s how you compel people to act fast.
• Use soap opera email sequences to consistently give value while positioning yourself as an authority in your space. Delivering immense value is the best way to convert readers into customers.
