Jay Schwedelson has that one, plus a lawsuit going after the sleep score you check before you open your eyes, and two subject line stats that argue the exact opposite of the best practice everyone keeps repeating. Stick around for the email data, but the Oura story is the one you'll end up texting someone about.ㅤBest Moments:(00:30) LinkedIn's AI slop report button gets used over a million times in a matter of weeks(01:00) The claim that flagged content is now pulling 40% fewer views, and why the feed doesn't feel like it(01:45) Oura gets hit with a class action over whether a ring can actually measure sleep at all(03:00) Subject lines under 15 characters are quietly beating open rates by more than 15%(04:00) The case for writing a subject line so long it gets cut off on purpose(04:45) ChatGPT advertising rolls into 31 more European markets this week

AI removed the campaign bottleneck, but volume alone won't win. Brendan Farnand, co-founder and chief evangelist at Knak, spent the past year studying how 100+ enterprise teams—including OpenAI, Google, and YouTube—build AI-native marketing campaigns.

If you're still typing novels into Slack and texting paragraphs, this one is going to bug you in the best way.ㅤBest Moments:(00:45) The Stanford study that says speaking gets your thoughts across four times faster than typing(02:11) The hidden read receipt inside voice memos that almost nobody talks about(03:00) The dictation stack Jay runs and why typing everything is leaving ideas on the table(03:39) The tiny microphone icon on the LinkedIn app that changes how you build relationships(04:45) Why the most connected world ever somehow feels the most disconnected(06:45) The dinner brag Jay refuses to accept as a personality trait

The data landed this week, and it quietly changes how you should be titling just about everything. Jay Schwedelson unpacks three tactics that are already moving the needle on AI visibility and email open rates, including one that produces what he describes as the most poorly written subject lines imaginable, and it still outperforms.

#310 Category Creation | In this episode, Dave Gerhardt digs in with Josh Lowman, Founder & CEO of Gold Front, to unpack what “category creation” actually takes, why most companies get it wrong, and how the best brands win by owning a spot in the customer's mind. They get into the four real paths to category leadership, the trap of “fake” category design, why vibe and soul still beat spreadsheets, and how personal development quietly powers great marketing. If you're building a B2B brand and trying to stand out in a market that feels painfully same-same, this one hits exactly where you're stuck.Timestamps(00:00) - – Dave's Intro (03:22) - – Why Category Creation Got So Noisy (07:40) - – The Real Goal: Becoming Irreplaceable (12:26) - – How Customers Actually Form Categories (16:55) - – The Four Paths to Category Leadership (23:13) - – The Trap of “Fake” Category Design (28:56) - – Product Reality vs. Marketing Narrative (35:32) - – Why Vibe, Soul, and Taste Still Win (41:46) - – Community as a Differentiator (46:23) - – Josh on Therapy, Mindset, and Creative Clarity (52:15) - – Final Takeaways for B2B Marketers Join 50,0000 people who get our Exit Five Newsletter here: https://www.exitfive.com/newsletterLearn more about Exit Five's private marketing community: https://www.exitfive.com/***Today's episode is brought to you by Knak.Email (in my humble opinion) is the still the greatest marketing channel of all-time.It's the only way you can truly “own” your audience.But when it comes to building the emails - if you've ever tried building an email in an enterprise marketing automation platform, you know how painful it can be.

#309 Product Positioning | This episode is from a Drive 2025 (our annual Exit Five event) session with April Dunford (Founder, Ambient Strategy). April pulls from working with 300+ tech companies to unpack the real patterns behind winning positioning from calling out competitors' nonsense to teaching buyers what actually matters, avoiding category-creation traps, and fixing the sales messes that weak positioning creates. It's sharp, funny, brutally honest, and basically a crash course in how to make your product unmistakably different in a market full of noise.PS.

#308 Sales Alignment | In this session from Drive 2025 titled “Building Pipeline in the Shiny Object Era”, Jen Allen Knuth unpacks why deals stall even when your product is objectively better, how the explosion of shiny tools and AI noise is making it worse, and why most teams are unintentionally fueling the problem with me-centric messaging. Jen shares the two zero-dollar exercises every team should run to quantify how much pipeline they're losing today, align sales and marketing around the true blocker, and rebuild outbound messaging that creates curiosity.PS.

#306 Executive Insights | This episode was recorded live at our annual event, Drive 2025. I hosted Sylvia LePoidevin (CMO, Kandji), Trinity Nguyen (CMO, UserGems), and Natalie Taylor (Head of Marketing, Capsule) for a leadership panel breaking down what's working in B2B marketing. They get into events that reliably create pipeline, outbound that still converts, media plays LLMs keep citing, and the tactics they've stopped running (like generic webinars that no one shows up for).Want to come to Drive next year?
