11h ago1:15:01

1:15:01

One of the biggest transformations in my career came when I went from trying to sell people with my writing, to trying to help them. Helping people understand whether a product or service is truly right for them creates long-term trust. So does helping them even when they don’t buy from you. Not only is this more effective, but my work is part of m…

1:04:54

Marketing is about helping your ideal customer perceive the value your products deliver. But before they can perceive that value, you have to create it. When I received the podcast guest application for my next guest, in my due diligence I found that Consumer Reports named its Stratami mattress one of the 9 best mattresses of 2024. To hear key less…

47:24

"One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight, for a very long time, of the shore." That quote is from Nobel Prize winning novelist André Gide. And I think there is a great lesson for marketers here. For 25 years, MarketingSherpa has published case study articles. And sometimes when I talk to marketers, they are so myopically foc…

Imagine this: you've spent months ideating, planning, and crafting the perfect marketing campaign.

“Writing is never done, it is just due.” This is a common sentiment from anyone who has ever worked in a deadline-driven field like journalism or academia.

Client Empowerment: Be the woman behind the woman (podcast episode #110) 41:51

2M ago41:51

41:51

My latest guest represents the perfect dichotomy of what it takes to make it in marketing. On the one hand, the word rockstar is half the name of her company, which connotes to me, Mick Jagger strutting around on-stage crooning “I’m a man of wealth and taste.” Or perhaps for a newer generation, Adam Levine in the spotlight belting out “I got the mo…

B2B Digital Marketing & Demand Generation: My boss has asked me to produce $1 billion in revenue. Now what? (episode #109) 1:06:16

2M ago1:06:16

1:06:16

When I started in B2B, my mentor told me, “We call this business to business, but make no mistake, people buy products, not businesses. It’s people who make decisions for these businesses.” Here’s where the rubber meets the road. If you’re only focused on businesses as accounts, you’re overlooking opportunities. For example, as our latest guest sha…

CPG Campaigns: Marketing is often about showcasing human truths (podcast episode #107) 53:45

3M ago53:45

53:45

Look, let’s face it, our industry can have a bad reputation. And I can see why. Just scroll through YouTube or social media and you’ll see self-appointed gurus shouting about tricks and hacks and shortcuts. But sustainably successful marketing is not about shortcuts, it’s about digging into the very essence of what it means to be a human being. Sou…

Authentic Brand Storytelling: Embed creative within your business model (episode #105) 44:24

4M ago44:24

44:24

Be careful you don’t engage in marketing color by numbers so to speak. It’s easy to get lost in process flowcharts and databases. You could build out the perfect infrastructure – the right media buys, marketing automation and drip campaigns all set, everything is being properly measured and attributed – yet in all that work it is easy to overlook w…

Sustainable Marketing: Take the time to understand your target audience deeply and your value proposition (episode #104) 47:51

Who is your ideal customer? And how does your brand serve them? Yes, I know you have KPIs to hit this quarter. Leads. Sales. A specific revenue target. And so it can be easy to quickly drill down to targets. But all marketing beings by asking… who is the ideal customer? And how does our brand serve them?

Career Adaptability: Marketing can lead to many other things (episode #103) 51:09

4M ago51:09

51:09

Where do you see yourself in five years? I always hated this interview question. It’s not that I’m against planning; it’s that I’m for flexibility.

Creative UX/UI For Impactful Marketing: Think, build, and scale like a product owner (podcast episode #102) 1:02:02

5M ago1:02:02

1:02:02

You can’t do everything. So you essentially have to make some ‘bets,’ for lack of a better word. What is going to have the biggest impact with your audience? Focus your energy and budget there, to make the biggest splash you can. OK, that’s a boring way to say it. So I like how my next guest worded it in his podcast guest application – ‘If you're g…

In our this episode, Kiara Kempski, Vice President of Global Consumer & Vendor Marketing at The Knot Worldwide (https://www.theknotww.com/), shares why sometimes ‘hand-grenade math’—a rough yet pragmatic approach—is more effective than chasing false precision.

Enterprise Solutions Marketing: You can make a big career, and still stay human (episode #99) 1:02:47

5M ago1:02:47

1:02:47

I like to call it blandvertising. I’m sure you’ve read it and heard it before. There are words. Lots of them. They fill a space – in an ad, on a landing page, in a press release, maybe even in a keynote presentation. You’ve seen these words before if you’re in the target audience. Scalable. Leading. Agile. Enterprise-grade. Full-service. Data-drive…

6M ago1:03:18

1:03:18

“The difficult we do immediately. The impossible takes a little longer.” That quote is from David Ben-Gurion. And it reminds me of marketing. We’re in the digital age, or maybe we’ve crossed over into the AI age. Either way, we don’t have the long deadlines we had when I started my career writing print ads. And that’s just the difficult. What about…

I’ve been watching the new Steve Martin documentary, and it includes a clip of him accepting the Mark Twain Prize. He calls it “The only significant American award for comedy…except for money.” It reminded me of our own industry, but in a different way. We have many awards for creativity, and I am a creative person so I love them, but ultimately th…

Wherever you are in your career today, you are not necessarily stuck there.

CMO-CPO Collaboration: Bridge Marketing and Product for collaborative growth (podcast episode #95) 1:04:21

One of my favorite career analogies is the music video for No Rain, by Blind Melon. There’s a girl in a honeybee costume, dancing around, and she’s so sad because no one seems to care or understand. And then one day, she comes across this field filled with people in honeybee costumes hopping and leaping around. A look of elation crosses her face, a…

Here’s something I get to do as a content writer that I never got to do as a copywriter – I sign my name to my work, and that gets displayed publicly. I’d like to think I was a conscientious writer before, but this makes me 10 times more so. And is a constant reminder that everything needs to be a certain level of awesome – no filler copy.

You know too much. You know too much. No this isn’t dialogue from a spy movie, I mean in your role as a marketer.

57:52

If a podcast plays in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? Bit of a cheeky thought experiment, I’ll admit, but here’s one thing I’ve noticed – we marketers don’t always create content for an audience, sometimes the audience is an afterthought. We’re too focused on an algorithm. Or a lead generation goal. Or a calendar. Or…

Think about the last time you read a piece of content that truly resonated with you. It could have been a news article, a blog post, or even a social media update.

“We can say that. Sure we can say that.” Oh, I do not like having to utter this phrase in meetings. Because it’s not what you can say, it’s what you should say. I’ve heard so many times ‘we can say that in an ad.’ Or ‘we can write a press release about this.’ Oh, the hubris in that statement. Because we get lulled into false confidence in the four …

I remember sitting next to someone at a conference, eating lunch, making small talk. And it came up that his brand had no competition.

I started my career as a copywriter, and I learned a key part of my value to any client or any employer was not just the way I shaped words or filled a block with text – it was to advocate for the customer.

Any industry, and our marketing industry is no exception, has a pack mentality. We say certain buzzwords and share certain ideas. But we can hear them ad nauseam, to the point where they just wash over us and don’t really mean anything. We nod in agreement at a networking event with a drink in our hand, but do we actually do anything about it the n…

In 1957, Vance Packard wrote a book called ‘The Hidden Persuaders,’ about the mysterious arts of advertising, and how advertising agencies research ways to manipulate people.
