Think you're sending too many emails? Spoiler alert: you're probably not sending enough.  Daniel and Jay bust the email amount myth. They dig into why frequency and relevancy go hand in hand, why “unsubscribes” can actually be a good thing, and how send timing is wildly overrated. More emails = more engagement (when the content doesn't suck).  And, do subject lines and emojis actually matter? They do, and testing them is a way to figure out what actually moves the needle.  If you're a Marketer who wants to lock in on email strategy, this is the episode for you.

Want to grow faster on LinkedIn without burning out on daily posts? It's all in the comments section.  Daniel and Jay share how a comment-first strategy helped The Marketing Millennials gain thousands of new followers in a single year, outpacing traditional posting.  Daniel reveals how LinkedIn's new comment impressions feature signals a shift: comments can now generate as much or more reach than traditional posts. Comments can act like “mini-posts” inside someone else's thread. Plus, how do you take advantage of adding images to your comments? Comments that have memes or quick insights perform better than text-only. They also give you a chance to test ideas in comments before committing to a full company post. If you're a Marketer looking to up your LinkedIn engagement, this is the episode for you.

Reporting live from a sweaty Waymo in San Francisco, Daniel and Jay ask an important question: Are you using Reddit to your brand's advantage? With a few minutes and the right subreddits, you can figure out trends before they appear on TikTok and Instagram, engage with other users in niche communities, and even hear about customer pain points so you can avoid them as much as possible. There are paid ad opportunities, too. And, do you need a huge following on Reddit? You don't need a zillion followers like Instagram to get likes on your posts. It's totally different and 100% useful.  If you're a Marketer looking to do more research and run some tests, this is the episode for you.

Sometimes your best growth comes from your worst flops. On this Bathroom Break edition, Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray get real about failure in marketing—not just accepting it, but planning for it, documenting it, and even celebrating it.

Most of your marketing is going to fail. And that's not a problem…unless you pretend it didn't. Daniel and Jay get honest about falling on your face and getting back up again.  Jay breaks down how even “successful” metrics, like a 47% open rate, are still rooted in failure and why marketers need to get comfortable with those numbers if they ever want to grow.  Daniel emphasizes the importance of creating a culture where failure is analyzed and shared. And, they explore how holding onto a bad idea can drain budgets, tank morale, and stop better ideas from getting the attention they deserve. How do you pick things up when it seems like a failure?  This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about going when the going gets tough.

Templates may save time, but do they kill your creativity? That's the debate Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray dive into during this Bathroom Break collab. They get real about why marketers rely on templates, how they backfire, and when it actually makes sense to break the rules. Plus, a tangent about AI glasses you didn't know you needed.ㅤBest Moments:(01:45) Jay compares buying the same shirt to marketers clinging to templates.(02:30) Daniel explains why canned templates make brands invisible on social feeds.(03:36) Jay reveals the “new template” trap that lures teams into stale content.(05:15) Daniel shares how custom styles keep newsletters consistent without blending in.(06:00) Jay points out how copying common webinar formats leads straight to “nowheresville.”(06:18) Daniel highlights why unpolished, text-based emails often outperform slick designs.(07:09) The two riff on AI glasses and the future of wearable tech.ㅤFollow Daniel on LinkedIn and check out The Marketing Millennials podcast for sharp, no-fluff marketing insights.ㅤCheck out our 100% FREE + VIRTUAL EVENTS! ->Guru Conference - The World's Largest Virtual EMAIL MARKETING Conference - Nov 6-7!Register here: www.GuruConference.comㅤCheck out Jay's YOUTUBE Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@schwedelsonCheck out Jay's TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@schwedelsonCheck Out Jay's INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jayschwedelson/ㅤMASSIVE thank you to our Sponsor, Marigold!!Email chaos across campuses, branches, or chapters?

Templates suck.  Daniel and Jay dive into how templates (like the ones you find on Canva and Illustrator) may actually be hurting your content, not helping it. Relying on cookie-cutter templates, whether for email, social media, or design, can make your brand invisible. When everyone's using the same templates, how can you stand out? Daniel argues that people subconsciously scroll past templates on social feeds because they look like everything else. Jay even says breaking patterns and not doing what everyone else is doing is the real key to standing out in social or email. Plus, is it a greater conversation about formulaic thinking? This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about getting creative and thinking outside of the box.

Not gonna lie, this one gets real. Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray go beyond the usual follower-count talk to break down what really matters when it comes to audience size—and what doesn't.

Whether you're trying to grow a brand or just not embarrass yourself online, this one's got some gems.ㅤBest Moments:(00:40) The real reason Jay preps for Q4 months in advance—even if he procrastinates holiday shopping(01:55) Why followers still matter when it comes to legitimacy and social proof(02:54) Jay checks business credibility by LinkedIn followers, not websites(03:49) YouTube Shorts outperforming subscriber-heavy accounts—and why that proves the algorithm has changed(04:30) Why big brands run multiple burner accounts on social to maximize reach(05:15) Running ads?

Having thousands of followers seems like the peak of social media. BUT, does that number actually matter?  Truth is, while follower count is important, social is evolving past just follower count. It's becoming more and more about engagement, content, and playing the algorithm. How does social proof play a role in whether or not someone engages with your content? Why does having too many followers look sketchy to others? Daniel shares how some brands are creating multiple accounts to get way more views on clips. Jay dives into his opinions on LinkedIn brand accounts..and how having 7,000 followers but no posts is a bad look. And, YouTube is pushing Shorts in their algorithm. How can you play this to your advantage? This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about playing the circulation game.

Memes aren't just for Gen Z or internet junkies—they're a real-deal marketing tool, and Jay Schwedelson teams up with Daniel Murray to break down exactly why.

Don't get it wrong: memes are the TRUE language of the internet. So, how do you master them? Daniel and Jay unpack why memes are the true language of the internet, how brands (yes, even the “boring” ones) can use them effectively, and the practical tricks for making content go viral. Daniel shares how memes helped him build a massive media business and how to reverse-engineer the perfect comment section. Jay dives into the rise of video memes, platform-specific tactics, and the overlooked importance of format variety. This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about being a memelord. And it's short and sweet.

Should brands be Marketing on the weekends?  From email open rates and low competition to overlooked calendar hacks and strategic send times, Daniel and Jay unpack why weekends might just be your secret marketing weapon.  Jay breaks down why traditional email performance benchmarks fall short on weekends and why it's critical to treat them separately from weekday sends. Daniel shares B2B tactics for booking meetings based on high-intent weekend browsing. Why are Sundays a gold mine for sends?  Plus, Jay reveals his early bird flex and Daniel shares his morning ritual for productivity (hint: it's not just the coffee). This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about being a weekend warrior, no Sunday Scaries here.

Waitlists might sound boring, but Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray make them feel like a secret weapon you're probably underusing. They break down why waitlists aren't just for trendy DTC brands and how you can use them to test demand, gather leads, and build buzz—without sounding like a scammy giveaway. Plus, you'll hear some strong opinions on self-checkout, impulse buys, and why Jay owns too many Lululemon hats.ㅤBest Moments:(01:10) Jay confesses he's never used self-checkout without needing help(02:28) Daniel explains why waitlists matter even if you're not launching a product(03:35) Jay shares how he turns a free event waitlist into a hype machine(04:42) Daniel drops the “rolling thunder” strategy for smarter launches(06:44) Limited quantity launches aren't just hype—they're insight gold(08:05) Jay admits he keeps buying hats he'll never wear at LululemonㅤFollow The Marketing Millennials podcast and connect with Daniel on LinkedIn to share marketing topics you want to hear in future episodes.ㅤCheck out our 100% FREE + VIRTUAL EVENTS! ->Guru Conference - The World's Largest Virtual EMAIL MARKETING Conference - Nov 6-7!Register here: www.GuruConference.comㅤCheck out Jay's YOUTUBE Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@schwedelsonCheck out Jay's TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@schwedelsonCheck Out Jay's INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jayschwedelson/ㅤMASSIVE thank you to our Sponsor, Marigold!!Email chaos across campuses, branches, or chapters?

Do waitlists even matter to customers anymore? Or are they a waste of time? Daniel says it depends, but basically, lists are important in marketing. Getting email addresses of important people (including people that are interested in your brand) should always be a priority. But, there are some instances where a wait list wouldn't make sense, like a free virtual event. Jay and Daniel talk about building hype…and what to do when that hype gets busted.   Plus, what's the biggest hacks in DTC vs. B2B SaaS? One is using the term “sold out” for social proof and the other is beta access. The OG upsell has always been a long line. How do you do that with a virtual service or product? This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about waiting…and waiting…and more waiting.

Marketers throw testimonials on their sites like seasoning—but most are bland and forgettable. Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray are back in the bathroom (not literally, we hope) to explain why one great, specific testimonial beats a wall of fluff.

Do testimonials and reviews actually sway people's opinions of your product?  According to Daniel, you NEED social proof on your website, and Jay agrees. But you don't want anything generic because it'll sound weird and forced. Instead, you'll want testimonials that are specific. Think: “This product cut our costs down by 150%,” or something similar. You want to show impact.  Also, what do your logos and landing pages look like? Make sure it matches your client. Daniel mentions thinking about targeting in tiers. You'll also want to consider what your customers care about, and not just the fluff.  Plus, should you pretend an unfunny text is funny? Jay tests it on Daniel.  This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about social proof and reviews.

It's no secret that AI is super helpful. But how do Daniel and Jay use it? It's more than just about asking ChatGPT questions or telling it to summarize blocks of text. In Daniel's case, he uses it to repurpose podcast transcripts into multiple forms of content. (Work smarter, not harder, besties.) It's a great way to experiment with different formats and tones depending on who your audience is.  Jay mentions you can even use it to optimize your website. What's the difference between engine optimization and SEO? How do you get your website to pop up the way you want it to? He breaks it down…and even says it's the #1 thing to focus on.  Plus, what do they think of Love Island's format? Like AI, it can be A LOT.  This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about using AI to your advantage.
