Scrappy ABM hands the mic to another show and lets the numbers speak. Mason Cosby opens this episode of Scrappy ABM by sharing a re-release from Is Anything Real in Paid Advertising?, “the show where we unpack what's real and what's just noise” in a chaotic world of marketing and media. Host Adam W. Barney sits down with Mason, who “lives the phrase market like you mean it” and runs a content first growth engine built on daily LinkedIn posts, weekly podcasts, cold ads, and speaking gigs at manufacturing conferences.ㅤTogether they break down how a two-year-old business scaled through podcasts, 2,000+ target accounts with a five year conversion runway, and a four-show guest system that turns one great conversation into long-term relationships. They walk through thought leadership ads on LinkedIn focused on awareness, website de-anonymization and direct outreach, barter deals for PR and speaking, and a very real look at seasonality, CPL, CAC, and knowing your numbers when you're an agency founder staring at your pipeline and wondering if this is even worth building anymore.ㅤ

The episode kicks off with a pointed look at Meta, which seems to be earning a fortune from fraudulent and scam ads. Joe and Robert trace the pattern back more than a decade…from election misinformation to repeated scandals. The question emerges: Is Meta the least ethical major player in the industry today? This conversation naturally leads into a look at the growing AI bubble and Michael Burry's bet against The Magnificent Ten. While his prediction may eventually play out, the boys debate why we're likely still two years away from any real correction. Top Stories Meta's Long History of Trouble Joe and Robert walk through Meta's pattern of behavior, including the current windfall from scam ads, reminders of past election interference issues, and the repeated failure to effectively police the platform. The bigger question: if this is systemic, where does it go from here? The AI Bubble and Michael Burry's Bet The legendary investor who foretold the mortgage crisis is now shorting the biggest tech companies. The boys give context on why he might be early, what signals they're watching, and what marketers should learn from speculative hype cycles. Disney Spends Up…But Not Where You Think Disney is increasing content spending, but the bulk is shifting toward live sports and in-person experiences. Joe and Robert discuss what this means for marketers and why "experiential" continues to be a long-term bet. Coke's AI Holiday Ad Maker Responds The studio responsible for Coca-Cola's AI holiday ad gives its defense. Is this just another evolution of creative tools, or are creators right to be irritated? The boys break down the nuance. Winners and Losers Joe's Winner: Netflix House Smart expansion into experiential entertainment. A real signal of where media companies are headed. Robert's Loser: The end of the Farmer's Almanac A long-running institution finally fades. Robert shares why this one stings and what it says about legacy content. Rants and Raves Robert's Rant: Microsoft's sales content Robert has feelings…big ones. And he shares them. Joe's Commentary: Chatbot JesusWhat could go wrong?

Lative, the AI sales planning platform for sales and go-to-market teams, has announced it has raised $7.5 million in funding to boost product development and expand its go-to-market. The round, co-led by Act Venture Capital and Senovo VC, has also been backed by Elkstone, Enterprise Ireland, WestWave Capital, Handshake Ventures and Shuttle. Among customers utilising the platform already for more precise sales planning are Seismic, Intercom, Aiven, Avalara and Version 1. Lative helps companies understand their sales data and invest resources where they'll have the greatest impact. Instead of juggling multiple sheets, models and disconnected tools, Lative unifies the sales planning process in one cloud-based platform by connecting top-down targets and quota plans with bottom-up sales productivity and capacity. Teams can model and simulate future org designs to have the most effective sales team for achieving revenue goals, adjust plans in real time, and gain clear visibility into sales productivity and efficiency through AI Insights. This allows them to make smarter hiring and investment decisions based on data rather than assumptions, identify risks and opportunities before they impact revenue, and track execution with confidence. Lative was launched in 2022 by industry veterans Werner Schmidt and Laura Tortosa Sancho, bringing together over 32 years of senior operations experience from Sage, Citrix, and Deloitte. They recognised a common pain point: manual, fragmented sales planning that lacks real-time visibility and tracking execution. Frustrated by high-performing teams wasting time on outdated spreadsheets and models, Werner and Laura created Lative to deliver real-time sales intelligence and automated planning with AI. For end users, this means smarter planning, instant insights, and the ability to make faster, better decisions with customers seeing up to 24% increases in sales productivity across segments. "We saw the same issue over and over again, in every company we worked in - sales planning was slow, manual, and stuck in spreadsheets," said Werner Schmidt, Co-Founder and CEO of Lative. "We built Lative to change that, and to give sales teams real-time visibility and confidence so every decision is informed, not guessed in this critical activity for go to market organisations. Every sales organisation needs to plan and track execution, and it's mainly done in spreadsheets today. Now there's a better way." The sales performance management market, valued at over $2.3 billion in 2023, is projected to exceed $7 billion by 2030, showing the demand for solutions that automate and optimise sales execution. In just 15 months, Lative has achieved 10x growth, a clear sign of the demand for such a product. The company was recently ranked second to Salesforce on G2's Sales Planning Grid. Lative has also forged strategic integration partnerships with data platform leaders Salesforce, HubSpot, and Snowflake to enable seamless data sharing for revenue teams. "Lative is driving a paradigm shift to sales planning and optimisation teams that is long overdue. By helping teams identify what's working and what isn't in real-time, problems are identified before they become too large to manage," said Dr. Alexander Buchberger, Partner at Senovo. "RevOps leaders love Lative when they see it. New AI Consumption models now need better tooling to manage complexity. Lative helps industry leaders like Seismic, Intercom and Version 1 see true sales productivity and capacity in real-time to deliver efficient growth. Werner, Laura, and their team are defining a new category with an exciting AI roadmap." said Andrew O'Neill, Principal at Act. "Lative allows us to see our productive sales capacity in real-time which is fundamental to how we scale the business and invest in the right areas to accelerate growth." said Mathieu Cognac, Vice President of Revenue Operations at Seismic.

As AI changes how people search, marketers face a new challenge: getting their brand seen in AI-generated results. Learn how SEO expert Jason Khoo says you can appear in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google's AI Overviews, and more. In this episode Wendy Covey and Jason Koo, founder and CEO of  SEO agency Zupo, discuss the evolving landscape of SEO in the age of AI especially as more searchers turn to AI platforms for their answers, how can marketers ensure their brands appear across AI Overviews, ChatGPT results, Perplexity results, and beyond?Wendy and Jason emphasize that the fundamentals of PR and traditional SEO remain the foundation for success in AI visibility. Getting featured in trusted publications and earning backlinks from those sources continue to be essential strategies.They also discuss users and their changing search behaviors. Are more users going straight to ChatGPT for their searches? Are they starting with Perplexity and then completing a secondary search on Google? As these habits evolve, marketing attribution becomes more complex. How do these changes affect referral, organic, and direct traffic attribution?Currently, there's no perfect way to measure AI-driven traffic and visibility. Jason shared that his team uses PEECAI to track AI visibility, while platforms like HubSpot are developing their own AI measurement tools. Even without a universal metric, understanding how your content performs in AI results is becoming a crucial part of marketing analytics.But one of the most important questions on marketers' minds is how to rank on AI. Jason walked us through his top three strategies:Appear on the first page of Google's Search Engine Results Page Research shows a strong correlation between ranking on Google's first page and appearing in AI-generated answers. Jason cited several studies, including a ChatOptic report that found a 67% overlap between top-ranking pages and AI answers. A Seer Interactive study found that Google organic keywords were the top correlating factor for appearing in AI answers. In other words, if you rank well for specific keywords, you have a better chance of appearing in AI answers for those topics.Appear in listicles Jason also highlighted that brands featured in listicles like “Top 10” articles on review or ranking sites are more likely to appear in AI results. However, he cautioned that only high-quality listicles (those ranking on the first page of Google) are effective. Creating your own “Top 10” list and ranking yourself at the top can appear disingenuous, so aim to earn placement organically.Answer topics from AI's "Query Fan Out" Jason explains that when LLMs try to answer questions, they will often seek answers to related questions simultaneously in order to be able to serve a more in depth answer. If your brand has the best answers for the primary question of an AI user AND the answers to the related questions, you're more likely to appear in the AI answer.  How do you know this list of questions in an AI's "query fan out"? Most AI tools will not tell you even if you ask, but Perplexity does! Run through some questions with Perplexity and ask it what it's related questions are - now you have a roadmap to all the related topics that align with AI's logic. The "Query Fan Out" strategy is likely to evolve over time but this is great tactic to know.     So, where should you begin? The first step is to measure. Get familiar with how AI traffic is being tracked in your analytics tools, whether that's Google Analytics, HubSpot, or another platform. From there, examine how much traffic is coming from AI-driven so

What if the fastest way to grow your career is to reinvent how you work before the market forces you to? In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Caitlin Clark-Zigmond, a two-time entrepreneur and former CMO for Intel's global software and SaaS portfolio, to map the leap from hands-on operator to AI-powered brand builder, and why clear value translation beats clever slogans every time.Caitlin takes us from scaling a catering business to shipping Comcast Digital Voice, to leading massive B2B portfolios at Verizon and Intel. We dig into how Intel Tiber emerged to make software visible inside a hardware giant, uniting trust and security, AI and ML, edge and cloud, performance optimization, and developer workflows under a narrative customers could navigate. The result: sharper messaging, analyst clarity, and real pipeline acceleration. If your portfolio feels like a maze, her brand framework shows you how to draw a clean map.Then we get practical with AI go-to-market. Forget tool-chasing—start with painful use cases, build on clean, connected data, and let AI amplify what already moves the needle. Caitlin explains why a CDP or an MCP layer unlocks CRM, marketing automation, analytics, billing, and customer success, enabling them to communicate effectively with each other. We cover intent data for account prioritization, conversation intelligence for coaching, predictive scoring for pipeline, and agents that handle repetitive data pulls and weekly reporting so teams can focus on thinking, not tab-hopping.For leaders and modern marketers, the upskilling path is clear: achieve 30% fluency in core AI concepts, measurement, and understanding how your stack—HubSpot, Salesforce, GA, CDPs, and chat systems —actually works. You don't need to code; you need to understand revenue mechanics. We also share Caitlin's strategic networking system—the 5–5–5 method—that turns coffee chats into an operating system for your career, with value-first follow-ups that work even for introverts.We conclude with candid insights on the value of progress over perfection, investing in relationships before you need them, and redefining success in terms of client transformation, sustainable growth, and work-life integration.

A great marketing engine doesn't run in a straight line. It spins, gathers speed, and builds momentum with every turn.That's the lesson of the flywheel, a framework that transforms scattered marketing efforts into a self-sustaining system of growth. In this episode, we explore how to turn that theory into reality with Nataly Kelly, Chief Marketing Officer at Zappi.Together, we unpack what B2B marketers can learn from building circular strategies that connect brand to demand, removing friction where it matters most, and compounding small wins into unstoppable momentum.About our guest, Nataly KellyNataly Kelly is CMO at Zappi. She has over 20 years of experience leading remote and global teams, and previously served 7 years as VP at HubSpot. She is a frequent contributor to Harvard Business Review, a published author of four books, keynote speaker on marketing, growth, and international expansion, and an award-winning leader.

Marketers love funnels because they're measurable, but Nataly reminds us that the best marketing is circular, not linear. She says, “So often we have thought of marketing as like a linear funnel. But the flywheel's really where you turn the funnel on the side and then connect the top to the bottom.” In her model, brand, demand, land, and expand all feed each other in an ongoing loop. Marketing shouldn't be about one campaign that ends. It's about creating continuous energy that connects awareness to advocacy.Friction kills momentum. Velocity doesn't come from spending more, it comes from removing what slows you down. Nataly explains, “A general rule of thumb I've always used is the closer you get to someone's wallet, the more important it is to remove friction…. Every touchpoint is a chance to delight a customer.” In B2B marketing, the same rule applies: every confusing process, clunky message, or slow response is a brake on your flywheel. Smooth the path, and speed will follow.Small improvements compound into unstoppable growth. Marketers often look for a big splash, but Nataly says momentum comes from micro progress. Nataly asks, “What are the small things we can do to create uplift today and momentum today?... And those things add up.” Each small optimization—an improved touchpoint, a clearer message, a faster follow-up—removes friction and accelerates the flywheel. Consistency, not chaos, creates compounding power.Quote“Your brand voice is really how you decide to communicate with your customer. And that is not just what we typically consider marketing communications. It touches every part of the customer experience.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Nataly Kelly, Chief Marketing Officer at Zappi[01:09] Why Flywheels?[05:16] Role of Chief Marketing Officer at Zappi[07:30] What are Flywheels?[20:52] Understanding Market Dynamics and Customer Segmentation[22:11] Building and Maintaining a Flywheel Strategy[26:11] Content Marketing Success Stories[33:51] Leveraging LinkedIn for Effective Content Distribution[39:22] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Nataly on LinkedInLearn more about ZappiAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

In this episode of How to Ride a Roller Coaster, host David Ezell sits down with Perry Sheraw — a pioneer in marketing automation and customer experience strategy. Long before tools like HubSpot and Klaviyo became industry staples, Perry was building CRM systems from scratch, connecting call centers to digital marketing, and architecting the early blueprints of what we now call customer journey design.Together, David and Perry explore how founders and teams can bridge the gap between marketing and sales, transform chaos into consistency, and design systems that build trust over time — not just conversions. They dig into:Why marketing and sales silos still exist (and how to break them)How to map your customer journey using a whiteboard, not a dashboardBuilding automations that feel human — from welcome emails to onboarding flowsThe psychology behind customer trust and why email still outperforms socialNew frontiers in automation, including WhatsApp integration and conversational AIHow to “turn the lights on” in your marketing house — and stop losing leads you've already paid forWhether you're an entrepreneur trying to scale your first system or a marketing leader rethinking automation strategy, this episode offers a grounded, tactical approach to customer-centric growth.Perry Sheraw is a strategist, consultant, and speaker specializing in marketing automation and customer experience frameworks. She's led marketing and call center operations for highly regulated industries, built cross-functional CRM systems, and currently advises companies on scaling automation with empathy. Perry is also writing a forthcoming book on marketing automation frameworks for young professionals — a practical guide on integrating automation and selling it to the C-suite.Learn more at perrysheraw.comShow links:• Connect with Perry on LinkedIn• HubSpot – hubspot.com• Mailchimp – mailchimp.com• Klaviyo – klaviyo.com• Seth Godin – “Permission Marketing”• Neil Patel – neilpatel.comHigh-level takeaways:• “If you invite people to your house and then leave, that's what it's like sending paid traffic without follow-up.”• “Automation isn't about removing the human — it's about meeting them where they are.”• “Start your customer journey on a whiteboard, not in a platform.”• “Marketing and sales are two halves of the same customer conversation.”

In this episode of the Rainmaker Podcast, Gui Costin sits down with Manish Khatta, CEO and CIO of Potomac, for a candid and insightful conversation about building and scaling a modern asset management firm through transparency, technology, and content.Manish, a self-described quant and lifelong Potomac team member, shares his journey from programming mechanical trading systems straight out of college to now leading a fast-growing, multi-siloed investment business. At the heart of Potomac's identity is a fierce commitment to risk management—reflected in their trademarked tagline, Built to Conquer Risk—and a bold content strategy that sets them apart in a traditionally conservative industry.The episode explores how Potomac adopted the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) to improve communication, accountability, and execution across all departments. Manish explains how EOS meetings, scorecards, and cross-functional transparency have fundamentally changed how the firm operates and drives growth. This operational discipline is mirrored in their use of CRM—specifically HubSpot—not just as a contact database, but as the central nervous system of their sales and marketing efforts. “If it's not in the CRM, it doesn't exist,” Manish says, underscoring the importance of tracking and acting on every client interaction.But what truly sets this conversation apart is the deep dive into Potomac's content engine. From producing as many as seven pieces of content a week to launching creative projects like “Industry Gossip” and a Seinfeld-inspired series featuring advisors in classic cars, Manish and his team have taken an unconventional, personality-driven approach to branding. He's unapologetic about avoiding product talk in content, emphasizing that building trust and brand recognition always comes before the sales pitch.Manish also reflects on leadership—how becoming a father shifted his perspective, and how he's learning to blend hard-charging expectations with empathy and kindness. He opens up about the challenges of scaling people and culture alongside business growth and offers pointed advice for young professionals entering the industry: stay curious, stay visible, and never underestimate the power of showing up.Whether you're a CEO, a sales leader, or a content creator in the investment space, this episode is a masterclass in modern firm building. Manish's blend of operational rigor, creative risk-taking, and cultural intentionality offers a fresh, actionable blueprint for success in a rapidly changing industry.Tired of chasing outdated leads?

In this episode of OnBase, host Chris Moody sits down with Jasmeet Sawhney to explore what it means to lead marketing in an AI-driven world. Jasmeet shares his unconventional journey from engineer to marketing executive, emphasizing how technical fluency and creativity are now inseparable in leadership roles.They dive deep into the evolving responsibilities of marketing leaders, how AI is reshaping strategy, execution, and team structures, and why the biggest risk is failing to evolve. From scaling personalization to rethinking attribution and ROI, Jasmeet offers a candid and forward-looking perspective on how leaders can guide their teams through this transformation.This episode is a must-listen for marketing, sales, and business leaders navigating the AI revolution and seeking actionable insights for long-term success.Key TakeawaysAI is no longer optional: AI is no longer a buzzword, it's a business necessity. Marketing leaders must integrate it across every function, from data analytics to customer engagement.Leadership must get technical: Future marketing leaders can't avoid data or tech. Understanding AI, automation, and analytics is critical for setting effective goals and strategies.Don't just hire AI experts, build internal fluency: Instead of creating isolated “AI teams,” leaders should train and empower existing staff to integrate AI into daily workflows.Personalization at scale is the new standard: AI enables hyper-personalization down to the stakeholder level, not just the account level. This is where real competitive advantage lies.Measure what matters: AI offers new opportunities to track touchpoints across the customer journey, finally making ROI and attribution measurable with greater accuracy.Change requires courage: Creativity, experimentation, and risk-taking are essential to unlocking AI's potential, leaders must champion innovation even when outcomes are uncertain.Quotes“This is the biggest opportunity of our generation.

Today's guest is Greg Wise, Co-Founder and Chief Customer Officer at OneScreen.ai, where he's helping modern brands move beyond the screen and back into the streets.  After starting his career at HubSpot and working in commercial real estate, Greg spotted an overlooked opportunity: integrating data-driven marketing into the world of physical advertising. Now, he's helping B2B and DTC companies rethink how and where they show up–online and off. How Founders Can Use Physical Ads to Build a Stronger Brand If you're relying on performance digital marketing alone, you're leaving brand equity on the table. Greg explains why founders at high-growth companies are turning to old-school channels—such as billboards and in-store signage—to cut through the digital noise and stay top of mind.  Why Out-of-Home Advertising is Easier Than You Think Greg shares how platforms like OneScreen are making it easier than ever to plan, buy, and measure out-of-home campaigns with real data–think billboards, bus stops, airport signage, and even wrapped cars.  You'll learn how B2B teams are using out-of-home advertising to reach niche audiences by location and profession, and track web lift just like digital marketing. Some of their campaigns are driving over 130% increases in website activity—and you'll hear exactly how. This episode is packed with practical ideas on how to blend real-world and online campaigns, as well as why investing in your brand today makes conversions easier, cheaper, and faster tomorrow. Enjoy this episode with Greg Wise… Soundbytes 39:47 - 40:07 "Doing out of home can increase web lift conversions by 134%...For B2B companies. …For DTC companies was well over 200%." 44:10 - 44:39 "The performance marketer might generally think about it as someone who's focused on the bottom of a funnel, the people that are ready to buy, the people that are ready to convert. But that's potentially 5%. It's the 95-5 rule. 95% of your target audience and your target customer base are not in the market to buy right now, and for years, we've ignored those people. The way you go after those people is through brand work." 33:49 - 34:02 "We need that physical location, to show up in the real world, in the places where our customers are, so they can see and touch and feel, try on, experience, and then we don't care if they buy it in the store or if they buy it online." Quotes "How are you communicating brand in a way that can be memorable and stand out?" "The problem is that people don't really know how to do it right if they've never done it before."

In this episode, we're joined by Pieter Boon, Co-founder at ImpactPilot, the customer success intelligence platform built for HubSpot. Pieter shares how he's helping SaaS companies turn their CS orgs into true growth engines, measuring impact instead of activity through a framework called the Impact Driver Methodology. Built on lessons from Google's 10,000-person post-sales organization, this approach gives CS teams concrete ways to track success before renewal, using impact points tied to real customer outcomes like ROI proof, API adoption, or multi-year deals. It's about replacing vague check-ins with measurable wins that move both customer and company forward. We dive deep into how teams implement and operationalize the system, from designing the right impact drivers to setting incentives, avoiding false positives, and keeping customer value at the center. Pieter also reveals data from Impact Pilot users showing that customers with high impact scores are 7× more likely to renew or expand, and how that changes how you coach, measure, and reward CS teams. Here are some of the key questions we address: What is the Impact Driver Methodology, and how does it solve the lagging-indicator problem in CS? How do you define and prioritize impact drivers that actually move the needle for customers? How can CS leaders design incentive models that balance company outcomes with customer value? What KPIs matter between onboarding and renewal, and how do you quantify “impact”? How can you use impact scoring to predict churn and expansion before it happens? What pitfalls to avoid, like rewarding “touches” instead of outcomes or overemphasizing feature use? How can early-stage SaaS teams implement this framework (and even start with a simple spreadsheet)? What's next for CS as a function, and why Pieter believes it's becoming the new growth engine for SaaS.

It's another wild week in the world of marketing, media, and tech. First up: Amazon announced yet another round of layoffs, and Joe and Robert dive into the growing trend among the Magnificent 10 companies. Are these just normal business cycles? The result of AI-driven productivity? Or signs of something deeper happening in the global economy? Then: OpenAI is restructuring to look more like a traditional for-profit company. With Microsoft now owning 27%, the boys debate what this means for control, innovation, and the company's future. Could OpenAI become the world's first trillion-dollar IPO? Next: Morning Brew acquires a YouTube show about the news — and Joe explains why this is another major example of individual creators getting their work acquired and then integrating themselves into larger organizations. In Marketing Winners & Losers, Robert dives into K-Pop Demon Hunters, while Joe highlights Elon Musk's Grokipedia. And in Rants & Raves, Joe shares how email newsletters can literally get you hired, while Robert takes aim at the new WPP–Google AI partnership. Listen to the full episode for all the analysis, tangents, and laughs you expect from Joe and Robert on This Old Marketing.

At the Crexendo UGM, Amit (Bodhi) Bijlani, Co-Founder and CEO of Voxtell AI, joined Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green to discuss how his company is reshaping the way service providers deploy conversational AI. Fresh off the CodeFest stage, Bijlani announced the launch of Voxtell AI's NetSapiens plugin—a light, embedded version of the company's full-featured voice AI assistant platform that integrates directly into the NetSapiens customer portal. “Our goal was to make AI accessible to every NetSapiens partner,” Bijlani said. “Now they can resell AI assistants to their customers without leaving the portal—they don't need another login or platform.” Voxtell AI's solution enables inbound and outbound AI calling, two-way SMS, knowledge base integration, lead scoring, data extraction, and recording and transcription—all within a fully white-labeled, reseller-ready environment. The company's new plugin uses NetSapiens single sign-on for frictionless access, allowing MSPs and partners to deploy AI assistants in under a day, while end users can train and launch their assistants in just minutes using existing web or Google Business data. Bijlani explained that the product evolved from analyzing Voxtell's own CDR data and identifying missed opportunities in after-hours and weekend calls. That insight led to a year-and-a-half development effort culminating in a scalable, omnichannel AI assistant platform that's both simple to deploy and deeply customizable. “We're giving service providers a fast, sticky way to add AI value to every account,” Bijlani noted, emphasizing that the solution integrates easily with CRMs and third-party apps through its MCP server. Whether connecting to Salesforce, HubSpot, or industry-specific systems like Open Dental, partners can extend automation and customer engagement without heavy development. For NetSapiens partners, this means new revenue, tighter customer relationships, and faster entry into the AI economy—all without leaving the familiar NetSapiens ecosystem. Learn more: voxtell.ai

When you're an expert in something, it's tempting to assume the role of your communication is to deliver something in an academic way. Instruct, advise, and teach. Sometimes, this devolves into shoving a wall of smarts *at* the world. But you need to translate what you know into language that causes others to care. That's something today's guest embraced 10 years ago, and the combination of his ideas and his influence have put him in rare company.Today's guest is David C. Baker, a 7-time author which the New York Times once called "the expert's expert." His business, Punctuation, and his seminal books like The Business of Expertise and Selling Your Professional Service Firm help business owners achieve their next milestones with clarity and confidence. Today, we hear from David about why the EASY part of our work as experts is the insight. The hard part is wrapping insight into something delicious others want to eat.Plus, he shares a rare kind of story he wrote, and we break it down together, and you'll get a fascinating look inside the thought process and creative practice of one of the world's top voices in the business of expertise.This is a great one with the great David C.

This week's episode of This Old Marketing dives deep into the evolving world of AI, automation, and creator opportunities. 1. OpenAI's ChatGPT Atlas: A Google Killer? OpenAI's latest product, ChatGPT Atlas, has some wondering if this is a direct strike at Google's dominance in search. We break down what Atlas is, how it changes the discovery landscape, and what it means for marketers and creators. 2. AI and Robots Taking Jobs A New York Times article reports that Amazon plans to replace over half a million jobs with robots. But the twist? The AI industry itself is facing layoffs. Meta has cut significant staff from its AI operations, according to Axios. We explore what this says about the current state — and future — of the AI economy. 3. ChatGPT to Allow Adult Erotica (for Verified Users) OpenAI will soon allow adult-themed content for verified adults. Is this a necessary step toward realism and maturity online, or is it a PR nightmare waiting to happen? We debate whether the Internet needs true age-gating — or if this will end up being a “nothing burger,” as Robert might say. 4. Creators Take Flight — Literally Marketing Brew reports that YouTube creators are getting their content featured on Delta Airlines flights. It's a great marketing move — but does it signal that YouTube is becoming television? We discuss what this means for creators' reach and brand positioning.
