In this special episode of The Digital Marketing Podcast, Daniel Rowles sits down with Alex Schultz, Meta's Chief Marketing Officer and Vice President of Analytics, to unpack the future of digital marketing, and why the fundamentals still matter more than ever. Alex shares lessons from his remarkable journey: from running the world's top paper airplane website to leading growth at Meta, managing multi-billion dollar ad campaigns, and now authoring the industry-defining book Click Here. With high-profile endorsements from Mark Zuckerberg, Sam Altman, Daniel Ek, and Matthew Vaughn, the book has already gettimg rave reviews, and Daniel is putting it straight onto the reading list for his students at Imperial College. Together, Daniel and Alex dig into the core principles of great marketing: how to set meaningful goals, measure true impact, build high-performance teams, and embrace AI without losing your strategic edge. In This Episode: Why Alex wrote Click Here and why the industry desperately needed a book that gets back to fundamentals, marketing measurement, and pride in the profession. The power of incrementality: How to run meaningful tests, avoid vanity metrics, and prove real value to your CEO and CFO. Why goals are not the same as metrics and how mixing them up can derail your marketing efforts. The importance of awareness: Why most businesses fail because people simply don't know they exist. Marketing mix matters: How one newspaper mention outperformed every digital channel—and why the basics still beat the buzz. Mediocre marketing + great conversion = success: Why broken funnels kill campaigns, no matter how brilliant your creative is. How Meta builds defensible growth : What sets their marketing apart, from deep integration with product and engineering, to AI-powered insights. AI's real impact on marketing jobs: A breakdown of the three kinds of disruption AI will bring, and why the marketers who embrace it will thrive. Paper planes, transparency, and unexpected beginnings: Hear how Alex's nerdy hobby turned into a viral website, and why he publicly shares his university grades to inspire others. Key Takeaways: Get back to basics: Clear goals, good data, and fundamental models (like the funnel) still win. Measure what matters: Metrics are not goals - incrementality is everything. Focus on defensibility and scale in your marketing channels, don't waste time on things that can't grow. AI won't replace marketers - marketers who use AI will replace those who don't. Be transparent and human: Success doesn't require perfection, it requires clarity, curiosity, and continuous learning.
Story of the Week (DR):War against women continues: Uber Not Responsible for Sex Assault, Jury Finds, as More Cases FollowEthan P. Schulman, the judge presiding over the California state court cases, told jurors that Uber would be responsible for the woman's harm if the company was negligent in using adequate safety measures and the negligence was a “substantial factor” in causing the harm.In its decision, the jury unanimously agreed that Uber had been negligent in its general safety practices when the incident occurred in 2016 — but that the negligence was not a substantial factor in causing the attack. The jury's foreman: “We felt that they could have done more back in the early days of Uber, rather than just focusing on growth,”Meet Lisa Monaco, the 57-year-old Microsoft executive Trump wants fired“Corrupt and Totally Trump Deranged Lisa Monaco (A purported pawn of Legal Lightweight Andrew Weissmann), was a senior National Security aide under Barack Hussein Obama. Monaco has been shockingly hired as the President of Global Affairs for Microsoft, in a very senior role with access to Highly Sensitive Information. Monaco's having that kind of access is unacceptable, and cannot be allowed to stand.”Monaco helped coordinate the Justice Department's response to the Jan. 6th attacks on the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters in 2021. In January 2022, Monaco publicly announced that the Justice Department was investigating the Trump fake electors plotMilitary women fear losing 'every bit of ground' as Hegseth looks backward to the 1990sDefense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Tuesday that he wants to review Defense Department standards that have changed since the 1990s, a time when military women saw far less support for their service and met drastically lower physical standards than today: "The 1990s test is simple. What were the military standards in 1990? And if they have changed, tell me why. Was it necessary change based on the evolving landscape of combat? Or was the change due to a softening, weakening, or gender-based pursuit of other priorities? 1990s seems to be as good a place to start as any."PGA of America CEO apologizes for Ryder Cup missteps, but group's president denies problemThe Misogynistic Abuse Towards Rory McIlroy's Wife at the Ryder Cup Is Deeper Than Golf. It shows a cultural shift, one in which men feel emboldened to attack women in public without shame or consequence. The abuse and taunts were so unrelenting that Stoll was spotted with “tears streaming down her face”PGA of America President Don Rea took a different approach on Sunday in a BBC interview where he downplayed the severity of the crowd's behavior: “Well, you have 50,000 people there that are really excited, and heck, you can go to a youth soccer game and get some people who say the wrong things,” Rea said. When asked about the abuse directed at McIlroy, he responded, “I haven't heard some of that. I'm sure it's happened … Rory understands things like that are going to happen.”Fake billionaire manbaby “retirements” continue DRSpotify CEO Daniel Ek to Step Down.

De Autoriteit Consument & Markt (ACM) gaat onderzoek doen naar een 'grote, internationaal opererende softwareleverancier.' Die zou vermoedelijk te hoge prijzen vragen en oneerlijke voorwaarden stellen aan Nederlandse klanten. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Dat de ACM geen namen noemt, komt doordat het nog niet duidelijk is of er daadwerkelijk concurrentieregels zijn overtreden. Naast het feit dat het om een groot en internationaal softwarebedrijf gaat, is ook bekend dat het een zogeheten 'economische machtspositie' heeft. Dat houdt in dat het bedrijf weinig rekening hoeft te houden met klanten en concurrenten, omdat klanten bijvoorbeeld lastig over kunnen stappen naar een ander bedrijf. 'De ACM heeft een bedrijfsbezoek gedaan, informatie opgevraagd en onderzoekt de komende tijd of dit bedrijf de mededingingsregels inderdaad heeft overtreden', laat de waakhond in een persbericht weten. Verder in deze Tech Update: Spotify-oprichter en -topman Daniel Ek gaat stoppen als CEO van het bedrijf Stichting BREIN krijgt meer middelen van de ACM om online het auteursrecht te beschermen See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tech leaders such as Spotify's Daniel Ek and Epic's Tim Sweeney are waging a legal war over what they have portrayed as a shakedown operation — the 30% App Store cut that generates massive profits for Apple while stifling competition. As this battle imperils Apple's hold on the mobile world, the rise of artificial intelligence is threatening to potentially displace the smartphone era altogether.
Alla med dig – om relationernas betydelse på jobbetRelationer är avgörande för vårt välmående – och för vår prestation. Det är utgångspunkten i poddavsnittet med psykologen och mindfulnessläraren Daniel Ek om varför social hälsa på jobbet inte är ett ”mjukt värde” utan en av de starkaste framgångsfaktorerna för både individer och organisationer.Relationer som skyddsfaktorForskning visar tydligt att goda relationer är en av de viktigaste faktorerna för ett långt och hälsosamt liv. Den välkända Harvardstudien om lycka och hälsa pekar på att kvaliteten i våra relationer spelar större roll än både ekonomi och status. Ensamhet och social isolering är däremot lika skadligt för hälsan som rökning eller alkoholmissbruk.På jobbet har relationer en liknande skyddande effekt: de minskar stress, stärker vår psykiska hälsa, ökar motivationen och lägger grunden för innovation och lärande. Kort sagt – när vi känner oss trygga och sedda vill vi bidra.Arbetsplatsens kultur – en resurs eller en riskDaniel Ek beskriver hur människan är en hypersocial varelse. Vår identitet formas i mötet med andra, och arbetsplatsens kultur blir därför avgörande. I miljöer där tystnad eller hård jargong dominerar riskerar medarbetare att dämpa sin kreativitet, undvika att säga ifrån och i längden förlora både energi och engagemang. Omvänt skapas motivation och samarbete nästan automatiskt i miljöer som präglas av psykologisk trygghet och öppenhet.Ledarens roll – från kontroll till relationEn central framgångsfaktor är ledarskapet. Den traditionella bilden av chefen som expert och kontrollant räcker inte längre. I stället behöver chefer våga visa sig mänskliga, bjuda in till feedback, tillåta misstag och aktivt skapa utrymme för relationer. Små, tydliga kontexter kan göra stor skillnad – från enkla check-ins på möten till gemensamma aktiviteter som stärker tillhörigheten.Små handlingar med stor effektRelationer på jobbet byggs inte bara av strukturer och ledarskap, utan också av individuella initiativ. Att börja ett möte med en kort runda där alla får säga något, att ställa en personlig men inte privat fråga vid fikabordet, eller att ge en kollega uppskattning kan vara små steg som öppnar upp för större trygghet och gemenskap.Att motverka ensamhetEnsamhet på arbetsplatsen är mer utbrett än man kan tro – även bland dem som inte ser ensamma ut. Daniel Ek påminner om att de flesta människor uppskattar bekräftelse och kontakt. Att våga ta initiativ, söka stöd hos HR eller chefer och skapa små tillfällen av mänsklig närhet kan bryta den negativa spiral som ensamhet ofta leder till.SlutsatsRelationer på jobbet är inte en bonusfråga – de är fundamentet för både hälsa och prestation. När vi känner oss välkomna, väntade och värdefulla växer både individen och organisationen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hur kan jag ta med varandet in i relation och vad händer då? Relationell mindfulness handlar om att vara i upplevelsen tillsammans med en annan person. Daniel Ek, psykolog och författare, berättar om att de flesta trauman skapas i relation, och behöver därför också läkas i relation. Genom att utöva relationell mindfulness tränar vi upp det upplevande och det bevittnande självet, och övar då på att släpper taget något om det tänkade självet. Vi är alltså mer i nuet. Detta är del 2 av 2 av en intervju med Daniel Ek, den tidigare handlade om autentiskt relaterande. __________ Den 12 november håller Tealpodden tillsammans med Lisa Wiklund i workshopen The work that reconnects.

Le géant suédois du streaming musical fait face à de nombreuses critiques, notamment sur la rémunération des artistes et sur les investissements controversés de son patron et fondateur, Daniel Ek. Alors que certains et certaines appellent au boycott, le Point J se demande s'il est vraiment possible de se passer de Spotify avec Loic Riom, chercheur postdoctoral et chargé de cours au Laboratoire d'études des sciences et des techniques de l'Université de Lausanne. Ses recherches portent sur les marchés en ligne, l'innovation et le numérique, particulièrement à la plateformisation des industries culturelles et créatives.

This week we're diving into why bands like Godspeed You! Black Emperor and King Gizzard are pulling their music from Spotify - and why it probably won't change anything. It's a trickier situation than it seems, but the whole mess starts with Napster in 1999. 80 million people sharing MP3s illegally crashed the music industry, dropping revenue 15% in four years and creating a chain reaction that led to piracy running rampant for much of the 00s. Enter Daniel Ek in 2006 with Spotify, which was built initially using pirated music from The Pirate Bay, telling you everything about how much they value artists. But it worked. By offering free access to entire music catalogues (with ads), Spotify created something no competitor can match without hemorrhaging money. Today, 412 million people use Spotify's free tier. That's the foundation of their dominance - not the 263 million paying subscribers. But this creates an impossible situation for artists. Big names with established fanbases can afford to leave, but new artists risk invisibility. Record labels and promoters judge bands by Spotify monthly listeners and post-gig discovery relies on easy music access, meaning that pulling your music from this platform could be potentially damaging for their careers. The "just use Bandcamp" argument misses the point - it's a different business model entirely. Bandcamp is buying a car; Spotify is hiring any car you want. And as it turns out, a LOT of people prefer hiring now. But the real problem isn't Spotify - it's "technofeudalism." Tech platforms operate like medieval fiefdoms where users become trapped serfs. Artists complain about Spotify royalties while creating free content for Instagram and TikTok, which monetise their labour through surveillance capitalism. The arms investment angle (Daniel Ek's €600m in AI weapons) sounds damning until you realise Google runs military AI projects for Israel, Meta builds battlefield AR for the US military, and all big tech props up the military-industrial complex. Their conclusion is bleak: there's no way out. The market expects free music and won't change. Mass boycotts might work but won't happen. The only real solution is direct artist support - gigs, merch, Bandcamp purchases, because it's almost impossible for anyone to truly extricate themselves from terrible machinery of the current internet era.

We took economics to a music festival, and somehow packed the tent. In this Electric Picnic highlights episode from Mindfield, we rock up bleary-eyed and buzzing, then dive straight into the big stuff: what Trump's assault on America's institutions means for money, markets, and the rest of us. We map the new super-cycle from post-war social democracy to Reagan-Thatcher finance, to today's populist reboot, and why we think the US is flirting with a fiscal, monetary, and dollar crunch. Closer to home, we ask why Ireland looks rich on paper but feels poor in reality. In between, we tell the story of the 1992 currency crisis, a lo-fi mission to the Dorchester, and accidentally swapping the Central Bank for UBS and because we were literally in a field surrounded by stages, we tackle the music economy: streaming's winner-takes-all logic, Daniel Ek's “music costs almost zero,” algorithms that feed nostalgia over novelty, and why culture only renews when the young can afford to create.

Jesse Beaman, an ambient composer based in Mexico City, joins a growing number of artists who are no longer making their music available on Spotify. He cites the platform’s requirement for musicians to have 1,000 yearly streams to receive royalties, as well as CEO Daniel Ek’s investments in Helsing, a company that makes AI-powered defense weaponry. While his platform may not be as big as other Spotify protestors like Deerhoof, Beaman’s career is marked with tours across four continents, video production, and collaborations with members of Interpol and M83. These connections have proven vital for his success. KEXP’s Roddy Nikpour talks with Beaman about his complicated Latinx identity, his prolific network, and his stance against Spotify. “Spotify is killing people’s attention span,” Beaman says in the interview. “Before you can even get connected to a certain artist, they’re trying to sell you on another artist.” When it comes to distributing his music, Beaman is turning to Bandcamp and physical media like vinyl. No matter how you listen, he hopes fans will practice intentional listening: “If you can give music the focus it deserves, I’ll be happy.” Support the show: kexp.org/deeperSupport the show: https://www.kexp.org/sound/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matt LeMay spent 13 years as a music critic at Pitchfork before becoming one of product management's most influential voices. He's consulted with companies from startups to Fortune 500s and authored two essential PM books, including Impact-First Product Teams. After watching countless product teams get laid off despite “doing everything right,” he discovered a harsh truth: most PMs are optimizing for the wrong things.In this conversation, you'll learn:1. The one question that predicts if your team will survive the next layoffs (and why most teams can't answer it)2. Why following product “best practices” perfectly can actually accelerate your path to unemployment3. The “low-impact PM death spiral”—how teams accidentally make themselves irrelevant4. How to push back on executives without saying “no” (the options, plus a recommendation framework)5. The counterintuitive reason why the happiest PMs are also the most commercially minded6.

He is also one of the most freakishly athletic humans I've ever met. He's a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, a professional natural bodybuilder (placed top five in the world), and an elite-level powerlifter (750-plus-pound deadlift, etc.)—but what sets him apart is how he blends all those worlds with unconventional training tools like kettlebells, maces, sandbags, and rope flow. Nsima is also the founder of The Stronger Human, a growing online community focused on strength, movement, and resilience.This episode is brought to you by:Pique premium pu'er tea crystals: https://piquelife.com/tim (20% off—valid for the lifetime of your subscription—plus a free Starter Kit, which includes a rechargeable frother and glass beaker)Momentous high-quality supplements: https://livemomentous.com/tim (code TIM for up to 35% off)Eight Sleep Pod Cover 5 sleeping solution for dynamic cooling and heating: EightSleep.com/Tim (use code TIM to get $350 off your very own Pod 5 Ultra.)*Watch the interview on YouTube: https://youtu.be/mLGqrlxofXANsima's YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/nsimaInyangThe Stronger Human: https://www.skool.com/thestrongerhuman/aboutThe Stronger Human Store: https://thestrongerhuman.store/*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissPast guests on The Tim Ferriss Show include Jerry Seinfeld, Hugh Jackman, Dr. Jane Goodall, LeBron James, Kevin Hart, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jamie Foxx, Matthew McConaughey, Esther Perel, Elizabeth Gilbert, Terry Crews, Sia, Yuval Noah Harari, Malcolm Gladwell, Madeleine Albright, Cheryl Strayed, Jim Collins, Mary Karr, Maria Popova, Sam Harris, Michael Phelps, Bob Iger, Edward Norton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Neil Strauss, Ken Burns, Maria Sharapova, Marc Andreessen, Neil Gaiman, Neil de Grasse Tyson, Jocko Willink, Daniel Ek, Kelly Slater, Dr. Peter Attia, Seth Godin, Howard Marks, Dr. Brené Brown, Eric Schmidt, Michael Lewis, Joe Gebbia, Michael Pollan, Dr. Jordan Peterson, Vince Vaughn, Brian Koppelman, Ramit Sethi, Dax Shepard, Tony Robbins, Jim Dethmer, Dan Harris, Ray Dalio, Naval Ravikant, Vitalik Buterin, Elizabeth Lesser, Amanda Palmer, Katie Haun, Sir Richard Branson, Chuck Palahniuk, Arianna Huffington, Reid Hoffman, Bill Burr, Whitney Cummings, Rick Rubin, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Darren Aronofsky, Margaret Atwood, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Dr. Gabor Maté, Anne Lamott, Sarah Silverman, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and many more.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Chris Hutchins is the creator and host of All the Hacks, a podcast that helps people upgrade their life, money, and travel.
