Positionless marketing isn't just a framework—it's a return to how work once was: flexible, intuitive, and deeply human. In this episode, Phillip, Pini, and Optimove's VP of Product, Shai Frank, unpack how cultural mindset, military experience, and generative AI converge to create teams that move with speed and creativity.Listen to decode how technology and ambition together can strip away organizational friction, empower self-sufficient marketers, and dramatically improve customer experience. It's not about removing roles—it's about removing blockers.Key TakeawaysPositionless marketing is more cultural than structural. It's not about tearing down departments—it's about cultivating people who take initiative without waiting for permission. That mindset, modeled after Israeli military culture, is what truly drives speed and creativity."Big-headedness" is a feature, not a flaw. Shai introduces the idea of “big-headed” employees—those who embrace ambition without being told—as essential to modern teams. In fast-paced orgs, initiative is a strategic asset.Creative execution is no longer gated. With tools like Optimove's Canvas and embedded brand controls, marketers can produce polished, on-brand campaigns without relying entirely on designers or developers.CRM is shifting from broadcast to orchestration. Instead of blasting segments, marketers can now trigger context-aware journeys that consider history, behavior, and optimal timing—raising the bar for customer experience.AI isn't about acceleration alone—it's about ambition. When friction is removed from creative and technical processes, teams don't just move faster—they aim higher.Key Quotes“Being small-headed means you're just an order-taker. A big-headed person says, ‘You asked for A and B, but I saw it also needed C and D, so I did that—and prepped for E.' That's what we look for.” – Pini Yakuel“Who said the first message should be the one you send? We don't want to serve the first—we want to serve the best.” – Shai Frank“If it used to take eight weeks to get a campaign out, now it might take two days. That frees up time to actually be creative.” – Shai Frank“If you don't create good customer experiences, people will leave. This isn't a moral imperative—it's survival.” – Shai FrankAssociated Links:Learn more about Optimove's platformsLearn more about Positionless MarketingCheck out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?

Föreläsningen "Få ut max av ChatGPT" visar hur du kan använda AI för att underlätta både i arbete och vardag. Du lär dig att mata ChatGPT med relevant input, använda röstkommandon och få hjälp med allt från textskapande till daglig planering. Med konkreta exempel och en lättsam ton får du inspiration att integrera ChatGPT i din vardag.Föreläsningen i 5 punkter– Upptäck bredden i ChatGPT – använd verktyget i alla delar av ditt liv.– Chatta på språng – prata med ChatGPT via appen för snabb hjälp.– Ge AI mer att arbeta med – mata den med text, bilder och dokument.– Planera med enkelhet – från resor till veckomatsedlar och träningsprogram.– Spara tid – låt ChatGPT sköta mejlsvar, mötesanteckningar och sammanfattningar.Få ut max av ChatGPT – måla med alla färgerFöreläsningen börjar med tanken att de flesta bara använder en bråkdel av ChatGPTkapacitet, som att måla med en färg när hela paletten finns tillgänglig. Med AI kan vi utforska fler nyanser, likt Veronica Maggios låt:"Jag vill ha svart, vill ha vitt, vill ha alla färger."Bic-penna eller Mont Blanc?Många ser ChatGPT som en Bic-penna – något simpelt och snabbt. Men rätt använt är det som en Mont Blanc – kraftfullt och mångsidigt. Målet är att inspirera till ett bredare användande av AI, och deltagarna visar stort intresse.På jobbet och i vardagenUndersökningar visar att majoriteten använder ChatGPT både privat och på jobbet, och många har uppgraderat till Plus-versionen. Föreläsningen understryker att AI kan vara ett bollplank som sparar tid, inspirerar, och förenklar – och att det finns otaliga sätt att använda verktyget.Lek, lär och maxa användningenFöreläsningen påminner om vikten av att ha roligt med ChatGPT för att lära sig mer. Genom lek, som att gissa en kändis, blir stämningen avslappnad och deltagarna får prova på att använda AI interaktivt. Men med en påminnelse: även när ChatGPT svarar snabbt, är det viktigt att dubbelkolla fakta.Att tala med ChatGPT via appen är en annan praktisk funktion, som gör det enklare att använda AI även när du är upptagen. Det uppmuntras att prova nya sätt att interagera och ge AI personligt anpassad input.Mer än bara text – bilder och analysChatGPT kan hantera bilder och dokument och ger t.ex. analyser baserat på innehåll i bilder eller skärmdumpar. Föreläsningen visar hur detta fungerar med exempel som att låta AI gissa hundraser eller skapa Lego-figurer. En visuell demonstration av AI:s potential.Använd ChatGPT i vardagenFöreläsningen listar 12 användningsområden för ChatGPT som hjälper med planering, ekonomi och dagliga beslut. AI kan skapa veckomatsedlar anpassade till familjens matpreferenser, föreslå resplaner eller jämföra produkter som elbilar. Deltagarna påminns om att vara källkritiska, särskilt vid ekonomiska beslut.Träning och hobbyprojekt är andra områden där ChatGPT kan bidra – från att skapa träningsscheman till att hjälpa dig strukturera ditt nästa kreativa projekt.Vardagligt stödChatGPT är även ett bollplank för tips kring personlig utveckling och praktiska problem, från hur man hanterar stress till att fixa en trasig cykelkedja. För underhållning ger AI serietips baserat på dina preferenser och hjälper föräldrar att skapa scheman som engagerar barnen.På jobbet – struktur, effektivitet och kreativitetChatGPT fungerar som en smart assistent på jobbet, med funktioner som projektplanering, hjälp med att prioritera och reducera distraktioner. AIkan även hjälpa till att skapa mötesanteckningar, dokumentera idéer och brainstorma för contentproduktion.Avslutning – tusen sätt att använda ChatGPTVi närmar oss slutet, men potentialen i ChatGPT är nära obegränsad. Det kan korrekturläsa, översätta, eller hjälpa dig bygga en egen version med Canvas-funktionaliteten. Du uppmanas att använda alla färger i din palett – både på jobbet och i vardagen – och se vad ChatGPT kan göra för att underlätta ditt liv.

AI kan hjälpa oss att skriva snabbare och smartare – men bara om vi styr den rätt. I den här kursen utforskade vi hur vi får AI att skriva på vårt sätt, med vår röst och tonalitet.

In this inspiring episode of Got Clutter? Get Organized!, we welcome Sylvia, the visionary artist behind Recycling Refined. After decades of developing leadership programs in corporate America, Sylvia tapped back into her creative roots—and the result is nothing short of extraordinary. Using everyday materials like cardboard, paper bags, corks, and denim jackets, Sylvia creates vibrant portraits and sustainable fashion that are both meaningful and eco-conscious. Her work challenges the way we see waste, art, and expression—showing that beauty can be born from what we toss aside.

In the fourteenth episode of Season Two, Carter is joined by one of the homies, Canvas. Tune in as they talk about the importance of moving with love, how humbleness keeps us attached to love's pureness, and learning how to embrace it all—even a good cry. Love at its core is the universal language because it is understood and spoken by all. It is the only language that has and can remove all barriers. A reminder that there was love before us, love is always present and accessible now, and love will continue beyond us. And in those moments of trials and tribulations or challenges, it is when we get to lean more into the action and practice of love. It's in those moments that our spirit can guide us through with the lens of love. Love is an active process, it won't be perfect, but it does get better over time and with time. A rite of passage that we all continue on until we can't continue. And even then, our love, our spirit continues. Love is timeless.

Grandpa Bill! Integrating Dr. Anthony Metivier's Magnetic Memory Method with Tam Veilleux's art and Energy Almanac is a wonderfully creative and multi-layered approach to learning and sharing. Creating mini daily mnemonics based on my bucket list endeavors and engaging our audience and reinforce our own learning.Let's craft a fun mini mnemonic featuring Tam & Grandpa Bill, incorporating memory palaces and a hint of a PAO (Person-Action-Object) system, all centered around learning astrology and art simultaneously through Tam's Energy Almanac and paintings.The Core Idea: We'll visualize Grandpa Bill and Tam interacting within a memorable location (your "memory palace") while performing actions related to their respective passions (mnemonics/wisdom for you, art/astrology for Tam) and connecting to symbolic objects.Memory Palace: Let's use our art studio (or a mental image of one) as the memory palace. Key locations within it could be:The Easel: Where Tam paints.The Palette: Holding colors representing astrological energies.The Window: Offering a view of the cosmos.The Bookshelf: Filled with astrology and memory technique books.The Cozy Chair: Where Grandpa Bill shares his wisdom.The Mnemonic Story:Imagine this scene in your art studio:Tam (Person): Stands at the Easel, not just painting, but her brushstrokes are drawing astrological symbols onto the canvas (Action: Drawing Astrology). The paint glows with cosmic energy (Object: Astrological Symbols/Cosmic Energy).Grandpa Bill (Person): Sits in the Cozy Chair, holding a magnifying glass (Object: Magnifying Glass). He's observing Tam's painting intently (Action: Observing/Remembering), linking each astrological symbol to a memorable word or phrase using his memory techniques.From the Window, a beam of moonlight (Object: Moonlight) shines down, illuminating the Palette. Tam uses this light to mix her colors, intuitively blending hues that correspond to the current lunar phase (Action: Mixing Cosmic Colors).On the Bookshelf, a book titled "Memory Palace of the Stars" (Object: Book Title) seems to whisper secrets (Action: Whispering Secrets) to Grandpa Bill, reminding him of powerful association techniques.How it Connects to MY Bucket List:Tam Painting Astrology: Represents learning art and astrology simultaneously through her Energy Almanac and canvases.Grandpa Bill Observing & Remembering: Symbolizes your application of the Magnetic Memory Method to grasp astrological concepts and art principles.Cosmic Energy & Moonlight: Reinforce the astrological theme.Memory Palace of the Stars: Directly links to Dr. Metivier's techniques and our learning process.Mini Mnemonic Phrase :"Tam Draws Stars, Bill Remembers Bright."Tam Draws Stars: Tam's artistic depiction of astrology.Bill Remembers Bright: Grandpa Bill using memory techniques to recall information.This vivid imagery and short phrase act as a trigger to recall the concept of learning art and astrology together using mnemonic strategies within your mental "art studio" memory palace.#MagneticMemoryMethod (Directly link Dr. Metivier)#MemoryPalace#PAOSystem (For more advanced techniques you might hint at)#TamVeilleuxArt,#EnergyAlmanac,#AstrologyMeetsArt,#MnemonicMagic,#MaineMentorMoments,#BucketListLearning,#GrandpaBillsMnemonics#LearnWithGrandpaBill#CosmicCanvas,#MemoryAndArt,Maine Mentor Moments,Grandpa Bill's Mnemonic Journey with Astrology & ArtUnlock the Cosmos & Canvas: Memory Techniques with Tam & Grandpa BillTam's Energy, Bill's Brain: Mastering Art & Astrology Through MemoryFrom Easel to Ephemeral: Creating Lasting Knowledge with MnemonicsGrandpa Bill's Cosmic Canvas: A Mnemonic Adventure in Art & Astrology

So head over and check out all these masterful designs and see what tickles your fancy! Shirts? Phone cases? Canvas prints? We got all that and more! Check it out and kick in for a good cause!
