Episode Summary:https://constraintcalculator.scoreapp.com/In this eye-opening solo episode, Jordan Ross, founder of 8 Figure Agency, breaks down a critical and often overlooked issue holding agencies back from true AI integration: schema and tech stack structure. While everyone is excited about AI, almost no agencies are prepared to implement it at scale—and the result is costly mistakes, hallucinations, and wasted time. Jordan shares how his team builds “agentic solutions” for agencies, the role of structured databases, and why relying solely on GenAI will leave you exposed.⏱️ Chapters: – Why 99% of agencies are not AI-ready – What is an AI brain and how it's built – Agentic solutions and workflow automation – The myth of being “tech stack ready” – Schema: the missing piece in your AI transition – Why GenAI isn't enough – Cost, hallucinations, and why shortcuts fail – The danger of unstructured data – Who this applies to and how to get startedTo learn more go to 8figureagency.co

Let's go!Kerry Curran, RBMA (00:01.72)So welcome Rachael, please introduce yourself and share your background and expertise.Rachael Bassey (00:07.279)Hey everyone, I'm Rachael Bassey. People call me Ray—Ray of Sunshine, more like it. I work as a research partner for SaaS companies. My specialization or expertise is helping companies create original research reports. I'll dive into what these reports are and my process later, but in a nutshell, that's it.Kerry Curran, RBMA (00:41.966)Excellent. Well, thank you. I'm very excited to have you join us today because content is so critically important—especially original content and research specific to the audience. So talk to us a bit about what you're seeing and hearing as you're talking to your prospects or clients. What are the needs in the marketplace these days when it comes to getting smarter, better content?Rachael Bassey (01:10.529)Okay, before I get into that—thank you so much, Kerry, for having me. Really, thank you. So two things: One—AI. You have small companies that are like, “Why bother hiring a writer when I can just go to ChatGPT and say, ‘Help me with my content plan, content calendar, and 50 articles for my blog' and get it done?” But then, a lot of people can easily spot articles written by ChatGPT, and people are tired of the robotic voice—even though I use a lot of it. People want to hear things that actually sound human.People are also hungry for data—things they can benchmark their performance against.Then on the other hand, budgets are being cut everywhere—left, right, and center. So CEOs and founders are asking, “Why should I invest more in marketing? How do we tie marketing to revenue?”There's a debate around, “Is the whole marketing funnel even relevant anymore?”You just have different arguments around whether it's important to invest in marketing or if we should even bother right now. That's pretty much what I'm seeing in the space.Kerry Curran, RBMA (03:01.484)Yeah, definitely. And it's so true—I can't have a conversation about marketing without AI being front and center. There's a lot of value there, but to your point, if you're putting all your creativity into the AI model, you're not going to get the quality you need.Adding to that, AI also impacts search results. If you're just producing generic content, your rankings will suffer. You have to get smarter about content structure so your expertise can rank better.So much opportunity here. Talk to me about how you're solving this—how are you helping your clients?Rachael Bassey (04:03.102)Great. Okay, so I'll just do a bit of a rundown.I worked with a company called Databox back in 2019. I'm no longer with them, but we started what I like to call collaborative marketing before it was even a thing. Back then, people didn't really care about talking to real people or experts and collaborating with them to create content.Now you go on LinkedIn and see a lot of people talking about original research, but before it became the trend, we were doing it. We were a small marketing team. I was employee 25 in the company, and our team had just three people: John, Bella, and me.When you have a small marketing team, you wear many hats. You might not even be an expert in the industry, yet you're expected to write 50 articles in two months. So we said, “Let's collaborate with our customers and prospects.”At the time, agencies made up the majority of Databox's clients. I would spend so much time on directories like Agency Spotter, HubSpot, and Pipedrive to find and connect with them.It made so much sense to involve these people in our content production process. We'd create simple surveys, ask them specific questions, collect their answers or insights, and publish blog articles based on their input.Eventually, we stepped it up to create benchmark reports. For example, if you're a Facebook advertiser, and your click-through rate is 2.4%, what's the industry average? We could provide that kind of insight—so companies could compare and see where they stood.That's how we scaled from publishing two articles a week to an article every day.I moved on from Databox and later worked at a company called Terkel—now known as Featured. If you know HARO, Featured is kind of a competitor.I thought, “Okay, I did this for Databox, and I know it works—how can I do this for multiple companies at once?” So at Featured, I worked with smaller teams to help them understand it's okay not to have a big marketing budget.You can still do really good work if you focus on involving customers and prospects in your content creation process. Right now, if I were to write about civil engineering, it would be based only on what I find online. But if I talk to civil engineers who spend 8 hours a day on site, they'll give me insights no AI model can produce.Your experience, Kerry, is unique to you. ChatGPT can't replicate it.Then I started my own thing after Featured—but that's the origin.Kerry Curran, RBMA (09:07.552)Excellent. So talk to me about the process though. You're identifying the client's target audience and interviewing them. You said you research to find the right experts—how do you even start with what to ask them?Rachael Bassey (09:26.34)Great. So it depends on the level I'm working with. For example, one current client—during our first meeting, I asked about their ideal clients, and the founder listed eight different groups. I said, “How do I even reach out to that many groups? You can't possibly cater to eight.”Some companies aren't even clear on their ICP, so I always say, “First, we need to get that right.”Because once you know your ICP, everything else is much easier.So, first I ask:Who are your ideal clients?Where are they based?What do they talk about?What do they write about?For this particular client, I've been spending 80% of my work time in Facebook groups. I don't even know why I'm paying for LinkedIn Premium right now! I'm just listening to bloggers, creators, and entrepreneurs to understand what they're really talking about and interested in.Especially since this client is a Shopify theme developer, I'm trying to determine if the market actually wants what they're building—or if it's just a nice idea that nobody asked for.Once I do enough listening, I reach out to these audiences with a basic survey I've created. That survey is designed to surface their pain points.If a majority of respondents don't list monetizing their content as a pain point, for example, then that's a sign we shouldn't be investing in a solution for it.And sometimes people don't even know they have a problem until you talk to them.So first, I help my clients clarify their ICP—if they haven't already. Many clients I've worked with thought they had their ICP nailed, but after talking to customers, they ended up pivoting or refining it.Rachael Bassey (12:13.696)Next, I work with them to define what I call the "Ideal Contributor Profile" too—not just the ideal customer.For example, Kerry, if you were my ideal customer, I'd ask:Where do you live? What's your title? What's your industry? How many employees are at your company? Sometimes, trying to reach a VP at a 5,000-person company is a waste of time. You'll need approval from too many layers, and it's like going to court.So once we define who our ideal contributors are, I use LinkedIn filters—sometimes even certifications (like HubSpot Certified, for instance)—to find highly qualified individuals.It's not just about gathering insights. We want insights from people who can also become customers down the line. That way, the work serves both marketing and sales goals.For example, one client was in influencer marketing. At first, they wanted to gather input from agencies. But I said, “Let's focus on in-house influencer marketing professionals at eCommerce brands—because those are your buyers.”So we shifted our survey strategy. Now, instead of collecting insights just for backlinks or SEO, we're engaging the people who might actually buy the product.That way, when the marketing manager follows up to thank them for contributing, it's not just relationship-building—it's lead generation.We've even had contributors say, “I've been thinking about buying a tool like this—can I get a free trial?” Of course! That's exactly the goal.Kerry Curran, RBMA (17:10.028)No—and you're so right. And you're so smart, because I think we spend—personally, I spend—so much time researching. But to actually start interviewing your target audience, especially those who aren't already customers, is just brilliant.It's not necessarily easy, but it's manageable. Especially if someone like you is guiding the process.Tell us—how can people get in touch with you?Rachael Bassey (27:43.904)Rachael Bassey—not the American spelling! It's R-A-C-H-A-E-L. That's important. And Bassey is B-A-S-S-E-Y.I spend a lot of time on LinkedIn, so that's the best place to find me.I'm currently working on my website: contentcollab.co. Or feel free to email me: rachael@contentcollab.co. That's content and collab—C-O-L-L-A-B—dot co.Kerry Curran, RBMA (28:24.682)Excellent. Thank you, Rachael. I'll put all your contact information in the show notes. And thank you for reaching out on LinkedIn and asking to be on the show—this topic was so actionable.I already know what my takeaways are, and I'm sure our listeners will feel the same way. Thank you again.Rachael Bassey (28:45.22)Thank you so much, Kerry, for having me. This was lovely.Huge thanks to Rachael Bassey for joining us today.

In this episode… What does it take to scale a digital marketing agency in an era where attention is scarce and competition is fierce? In a landscape flooded with AI-generated content and ever-rising client expectations, standing out requires more than just performance metrics or clever ads. How do the most effective agencies build not only campaigns but enduring client relationships? According to Ryder Meehan, a seasoned digital marketing strategist with over 15 years of experience, the key is combining performance-driven execution with a deep understanding of the audience. He highlights how agencies must evolve beyond simply running Google Ads or optimizing SEO. They need to immerse themselves in client pain points, audience behavior, and competitive messaging. By building robust brand research documents and conducting SERP-level competitor analysis, agencies can craft campaigns that speak directly to what matters. Ryder also emphasizes how thoughtful use of AI can elevate, rather than dilute, marketing effectiveness when it's guided by strong inputs and human editing. In this episode, host John Corcoran sits down with Ryder Meehan, Co-founder and Co-CEO of Upgrow, to talk about building a scalable marketing agency in a noisy digital world. They discuss how to turn early consulting gigs into a full-fledged agency, why message clarity is the new performance lever, and how to weather market volatility through smart positioning. Ryder also offers advice on using AI tools responsibly without losing creative edge.

“Visibility in the age of AI isn't just about ranking anymore—it's about being understood, trusted, and retrievable by the machines your buyers now rely on. These engines extract only the most relevant chunks of content to answer the query. And if your message isn't structured clearly or consistent across channels, you risk being invisible.” That's a quote from David Kirkdorffer and a sneak peek at today's episode.Hi there, I'm Kerry Curran, B2B Revenue Growth Executive Advisor, Industry Analyst, and host of Revenue Boost: A Marketing Podcast. Every episode, I sit down with top experts to bring you actionable strategies that drive real results. If you're serious about growth, hit subscribe to stay ahead of your competition.In The New SEO Frontier: How Marketers Can Win Visibility in the Age of AI, I sit down with David Kirkdorffer. He's a B2B marketing strategist and generative SEO expert. We break down how your content, website, and messaging must evolve to be visible in LLM-powered search. We explore what's changed, what still works, and what's next—so your brand stays front and center no matter which AI engine your buyer turns to.Be sure to stay to the end, where David shares why team alignment across content, SEO, PR, and partnerships is your best defense—and greatest opportunity—in an AI-first future. Let's go.Kerry Curran, RBMA (00:01.422)So, welcome, David. Please introduce yourself and share your background and expertise.David Kirkdorffer (00:07.466)Hi, Kerry, and thank you so much for bringing me on the show. My background: I am a B2B marketer. I've been doing B2B marketing for—let's say—30-plus years. I have focused most of my career on generating leads for sales teams, and that is still my focus, though the way that is done nowadays has certainly changed.I've worked mostly in technology companies, selling technology to technology departments—so IT tech for IT tech consumers. Over the years, that has gone from enterprise accounts, as technologies became more democratized, down to medium-sized businesses and small businesses.So that's briefly about me.Kerry Curran, RBMA (01:00.214)Excellent. David, I know you have been deep into the research around what I'll introduce as the evolution of SEO. Tell me: What are you hearing? What triggered your interest in diving into gaining visibility for brands within the GPTs and other AI engines?David Kirkdorffer (01:25.994)Right. OK, that's a great question. Given my background of trying to get information into buyers' hands—being buyer-centric—a number of years ago I focused on what we might call buyer enablement and the buyer experience: the buyer being successful in finding the information they're looking for on our website. I realized that a lot of the great information buyers want sits behind a gate where you have to speak to a sales rep.The idea I was working with—and many people, of course, not just me—was, “Can we get this information onto our website so that when buyers come, they can find what they need and say, ‘This looks like a good fit'?” Along come these LLMs, and now all of a sudden I'm thinking, “How do I AI-enable training? How do I make sure the AIs have the information that answers buyer questions?”In a way, AI LLM tools are a disintermediating force separating my buyer from my answer. They're turning to the ChatGPTs, the Geminis, the Perplexities, the Claudes, the Copilots, and various other tools—some specialized for particular domains. Our challenge is to make sure our answers are read, understood, and correctly represented within these LLMs so that, when a buyer goes there for an answer, our brand is visible.It's much more effective for a buyer to ask questions with ChatGPT, and you might ask the same question to four or five tools just to validate, because they all have different information sets, models, crawlers, and licensing agreements. Therefore, you may have high visibility in one and low visibility in another. Training data differs; retrieval data differs; the models themselves differ—so they have different “brains,” just like different people. That's what brought me into this: trying to be customer-centric and helping my salespeople so that, when buyers do find information, our brand is there.Kerry Curran, RBMA (04:27.744)That's excellent, David, and it's such a hot topic. I don't think I can go through a few hours of my day without it coming up. I know you've been evangelizing it a lot, which I'm sure generates many questions. What are the main questions people ask you about this capability and opportunity?David Kirkdorffer (04:51.442)Everyone wants to know, “What am I supposed to do? How is this different—is it different?” Two main lines of inquiry emerge. One comes from senior marketing leaders—the CMO or someone at a higher level—who wants to understand what they and their teams can do holistically. The other is very tactical: people approach it from their domain expertise—website, SEO, content—and ask, “What do I do within my lane that makes an impact?”The truth is, it's a bit of both. In my view, it's a holistic problem to solve. You can operate in just one tactical lane—website, SEO, or content—and it will have an impact. When you combine them, the impact is amplified, and it should also involve your PR, partner, and demand-gen teams; their work can help or hurt how your brand is recognized and surfaces in answers. So those two lanes—holistic and tactical—intertwine, and where you start depends on team size and resources.Kerry Curran, RBMA (06:48.354)If the main question is “How do I do this?” what do you think people should be asking first? What's the right starting point?David Kirkdorffer (07:01.140)I think you need a big-picture view of how this is different and what drives it—how GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) actually differs from SEO. It even has many acronyms: generative engine optimization, AI optimization, LLM optimization, and more.Kerry Curran, RBMA (07:38.732)Based on your work, which term do you prefer?David Kirkdorffer (07:44.744)I like “generative engine optimization.” Unfortunately, “GEO” means other things in other domains, which is part of the problem—both technically and from a brand standpoint. When we use shortcuts like acronyms, we know what they mean; the LLM doesn't. It could interpret “MRO,” for example, as any of 50 different things until you spell it out first.Kerry Curran, RBMA (08:24.150)Earlier you said it starts with a mindset. What mindset should people adopt to lean into improving their strategies here?David Kirkdorffer (08:46.292)At the highest level, LLMs and GEO replace the short keyword query box with a large window where users add lots of context. Through vectorization—turning language into math—the LLM finds little chunks of information, the “needles,” rather than presenting a haystack of links. It compares those chunks, validates them against other sources, and synthesizes an answer.We often don't know or care where the answer came from, as long as it's accurate. But that means the LLM isn't reading your whole page; it's reading segments. So this isn't just a technical SEO challenge—it's about the words themselves: how we phrase them, how we make them easy to understand, and how we avoid letting brand personality cloud clarity.Because of “chunking,” answers often come from two or three sentences—maybe 200–300 words—not entire pages. So we need to optimize those chunks.Kerry Curran, RBMA (13:06.506)Before we dive deeper into tactics, explain how these platforms differ from Google's traditional search engines and why that demands a different strategy.David Kirkdorffer (13:41.514)Think of GEO as standing on the shoulders of SEO. If your SEO is weak, the shoulders aren't strong. Some say, “This is just a new kind of SEO,” and there's truth in that. Others think, “We just need to do good marketing,” and that's also true. But with GEO, some shortcuts we've taken—like heavy JavaScript or hidden tab content—now have new impacts because LLMs don't execute JavaScript or click tabs.For example, if your page uses tabs for five benefits, the LLM sees only the first one; it can't click the others. It forces us to reevaluate design choices, because GEO cares about different things.Kerry Curran, RBMA (16:11.054)So SEO is shifting from technical crawlability to a content-first approach—almost back to the early days of SEO. When you talk about chunking content, best practices seem to be resurfacing. What should we consider when writing content now?David Kirkdorffer (17:34.914)The best practice is simply doing what we've always known: write clearly for the reader. LLMs struggle with poetic or highly stylized language; they understand literal, structured information. Our challenge is to provide that clarity without becoming too dry. In the future, LLMs may understand nuance better, but for now, literal clarity wins.Kerry Curran, RBMA (21:09.686)There's still a technical aspect—different from technical SEO a few years ago—like tagging. Why is that more important than ever?David Kirkdorffer (21:09.686)We have semantic tags—H1, H2, H3, etc.—but many treat them as visual elements. You might find an H6 above an H2 because it looks good, but that confuses the LLM. Ideally, one H1 states what the page is about, multiple H2s mark subtopics, H3s detail components, and so on. When that hierarchy is broken, the LLM can't map ideas correctly, and your content may be excluded from answers.Kerry Curran, RBMA (25:57.034)Old is new again: off-site SEO also matters. Why is consistency off-site so critical, and what should brands do?David Kirkdorffer (25:57.034)B2B marketers want their message on as many authoritative sites as possible. A small brand's site may have little traffic, so its signal is weak. Getting listed in directories or partner sites amplifies that signal. In the old days, “brand police” ensured consistent boilerplates—25-, 50-, 100-word descriptions—so customers weren't confused. LLMs work the same way: if they see the same wording consistently, they trust it. When every team tweaks the message, it creates variations that confuse the model, so consistency is key.Kerry Curran, RBMA (30:33.718)This has been super valuable. For listeners who know they need to start right away, what's the most important first step?David Kirkdorffer (30:59.392)First, learn how these systems work. You don't need deep technical knowledge, but understand the impact. If you're in a specific lane—SEO, content, web—still learn the bigger picture so your choices align with the new reality. Then triage: audit where you'll work first based on team size and resources.Gather the whole team—web, SEO, content, PR, demand gen—so everyone hears one story and understands how their actions affect each other. Agencies should know what they can and can't do and set expectations. After learning and auditing, remember this is ongoing, like SEO has always been.Finally, be present where your customers go. Different LLMs rely on different data sources—Reddit, Wikipedia, licensed content—and those arrangements change. Go where your customers already spend time.Kerry Curran, RBMA (36:06.339)Excellent. For folks who want to learn more or bring you in to help their team, how can they reach you?David Kirkdorffer (36:42.518)The best way is through LinkedIn.

I post about these topics and provide training classes—very hands-on and tactical, covering tabs, accordions, LLMS text, schema and chunkability, and more.

Fractional leaders aren't here for job security—we're here to build legacies. We remove the internal angst that clouds big decisions. We're not protecting titles or playing politics. We're focused on what drives transformation, growth, and lasting impact.Hi there, I'm Kerry Curran, B2B Revenue Growth Executive Advisor, Industry Analyst, and host of Revenue Boost: A Marketing Podcast.In every episode, I sit down with top experts to bring you actionable strategies that drive real results. If you're serious about growth, hit subscribe and stay ahead of the competition.In The Rise of the Fractional CMO: How to Accelerate Revenue Growth Without the Overhead, I sit down with Virginie Glaenzer, a fractional CMO, tech entrepreneur, and community builder.We explore how fractional marketing leaders are reshaping go-to-market execution, AI adoption, and executive alignment across today's most innovative organizations.Be sure to stay tuned until the end, where Virginie shares her advice on how to scope your first fractional engagement and make an immediate impact, without the overhead.Let's go!Kerry Curran, RBMA (00:02.148)So, welcome, Virginie. Please introduce yourself and share your background and expertise.Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (00:09.086)Thank you so much, Kerry, for having me on your podcast. I'm really excited—I think the work you're doing is amazing. My name is Virginie—Virginie Glaenzer. I'm originally from France and am your typical immigrant. I've had quite an interesting journey: I moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1998, started a couple of software businesses, and had my fair share of successes and failures.After 17 years in Silicon Valley, I moved to New York for about 12 years, where I served as VP of Marketing and CMO for mid-size organizations. I've been in D.C. for the last year and a half. Over the past 30 years, most of my career has been in B2B SaaS tech, helping organizations. Today, as a fractional CMO, I enjoy supporting small- to mid-size companies that are trying to disrupt their industries—mostly in tech, where technology is part of their offering. That's just a little bit about me.Kerry Curran, RBMA (01:21.594)Thank you. I'm very excited to speak with you today. You have a wealth of experience, but I want to start by diving into fractional CMOs and the evolution of fractional executives. I know you serve both as a fractional CMO and as the leader of Acorn Oak, so I'd love to hear what you've seen regarding this evolution and why you find it so valuable.Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (01:54.804)That's a great question. I actually fell into the fractional model—I never thought I would become a consultant—but it has changed my life, and I love it. I chose the fractional path because I wanted to make real, lasting change. When I was a VP of Marketing, I found that people wanted me to make them feel comfortable instead of guiding them through change. As a fractional CMO, I offer an unbiased outside perspective, removing the anxiety and internal angst that often accompany big decisions—something I couldn't do as a full-time employee.My focus isn't on protecting a title or playing politics; it's about building a legacy, not job security. As a result, I avoid the “drink-the-Kool-Aid” syndrome that can cloud judgment. The fractional model really works, and I think it took off after COVID because companies realized they could hire talent anywhere. When you hire people remotely, you don't see the hours; you see the output. A fractional executive who works two days a week can deliver the equivalent of four days from a traditional employee—and often, that's all a company needs.AI is also disrupting organizations. Internal employees may hesitate to rock the boat, but a fractional executive will do whatever is necessary to drive change.Kerry Curran, RBMA (04:01.762)I love that example—doing in two days what others might do in four—because when you can focus solely on the initiative, you avoid the distractions of full-time employment and get more done. Another benefit is that fractional CMOs must stay on top of trends—from AI to strategy—and can apply learnings from one client to another, an opportunity full-time employees don't always have.Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (04:59.680)Absolutely. Working with multiple clients gives you a different view of each market. You come in with broad experience, fresh perspectives, and numerous frameworks. It's a win–win—deeply satisfying for the individual and invaluable for the organization.Kerry Curran, RBMA (05:28.266)I'm seeing a trend: six years ago, most engagements were project-based—solving urgent challenges over three to six months. Now, clients hire me as a fractional CMO for assignments that can last a couple of years. As long as you're helping the company reach its next growth stage, why not?Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (05:57.428)Exactly. Hiring a fractional CMO can be a smart way to secure expert support without the full-time cost. When should a company consider a fractional CMO? I've seen three common scenarios:The company is growing, but marketing isn't scaling with it. You're facing a market shift—a funding round, product pivot, or another fundamental change. You're tired of disconnected campaigns and need integrated strategy and execution. For companies without a CMO, a fractional CMO brings strategic guidance, makes marketing proactive instead of reactive, and prevents wasting money on tactics that don't drive growth.If you already have a CMO, a fractional CMO can augment and elevate the internal team by:Playing “bad cop” when needed, helping leaders stay aligned during tough decisions. Providing strategic pressure relief without stepping on toes—I take the anxiety out of the organization. Rolling up sleeves and owning delivery when necessary. Kerry Curran, RBMA (08:41.024)Those are excellent examples—for companies without a CMO and for those with one. CMO turnover is high, often because a CMO fits one stage but not the next. Removing them isn't always best; sometimes they lack performance-marketing depth or AI expertise. A fractional CMO lets you keep institutional knowledge while adding new skills.Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (10:01.952)Absolutely. In today's uncertain economy, the fractional model makes even more sense. It's a cost-effective way to keep driving the company without paying for a full-time executive. I expect more organizations will take this path.Kerry Curran, RBMA (10:31.994)I agree. Startups and scale-ups may go sales-led and stall. Bringing in a fractional CMO to establish strategic foundations can be crucial. You talk a lot about AI. What services and strategies do you provide around transformation and AI?Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (11:31.222)Sure. AI is a major focus. I help clients with several business challenges. For example, tariffs are front and center; they're an opportunity to revisit every part of the business and optimize. From a marketing perspective, we need to adapt to GEO—Generative Engine Optimization—to stay visible as algorithms evolve. Some call it AIO, but the point is visibility.AI has changed how we work. Initially, it saved time; next, it improved quality; now, it changes how we think about our work. Resistance exists: in a recent webinar, 0 % of attendees had an AI policy, yet 60 % used AI professionally. That's a risk we must address.Kerry Curran, RBMA (14:29.272)Wow.Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (14:51.318)Exactly. Another area is AI chatbots. Customer experience can't be an afterthought—if users don't like the experience, they go elsewhere. Leadership resistance also exists: many engineers resist AI, yet Google reports that 25 % of its code is now AI-generated, expected to reach 50 % within a year. Marketers sit between innovation and legal risk; we must work closely with legal to use AI responsibly.Kerry Curran, RBMA (17:03.492)That's smart. An experienced fractional CMO can guide organizations through those challenges. We've focused on fractional CMOs, but tell us about Acorn Oak and the community of fractional C-suite advisors you've built.Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (17:46.540)Absolutely. If you're hiring a fractional executive, choose someone who belongs to a community. At Acorn Oak—and other networks like TechCXO—we're a trusted group of fractional executives. When you hire one of us, you gain cultural fit, synergy, and faster results. We already know one another, so alignment is immediate, and there's no ego.Kerry Curran, RBMA (19:17.262)That's great. What advice would you give a company considering a fractional CMO or other executive?Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (19:43.406)First, define the pain. I always ask: What's the priority? A clear understanding of the challenge leads to a clear scope and a successful partnership. Second, work with someone in a community; they bring broader resources. Finally, don't wait—hiring a full-time CMO can take a year; hiring a fractional CMO can take two to three weeks from the initial call to weekly execution.Kerry Curran, RBMA (21:26.318)Definitely. Thank you for sharing your expertise. How can listeners find you?Virginie Glaenzer, Frac. CMO (21:47.764)I'm an open book. If you Google my name, you'll find me. I'm on LinkedIn and, less frequently, on Twitter. You can also visit acornoak.net or techcxo.com.Kerry Curran, RBMA (22:09.494)Excellent. I'll include those links in the show notes.

"If your team's still selling features, your packaging is broken. Most CEOs focus on scaling sales, but they overlook pricing and packaging as core revenue levers. When your pricing aligns with the value you deliver, value-based selling becomes second nature, discounting drops, and revenue growth accelerates. You don't need a new product, you need a smarter way to package what you already have.” Roee Hartuv There's a revenue lever sitting inside your business, and most CEOs aren't pulling it. While go-to-market teams focus on win rates, funnels, and churn, few leaders pause to rethink pricing and packaging. But this often-overlooked strategy is one of the fastest, highest ROI paths to growth. In this episode, returning guest Roee Hartuv, pricing strategist and advisor, reveals why fixing packaging and pricing often beats any playbook tweak, and how CEOs can unlock hidden revenue by aligning pricing to customer value. You'll learn: Why no one “owns” pricing and how that creates revenue leaks The 4-step framework Roee uses to raise prices without increasing churn How value-based packaging enables better sales and customer success What most pricing changes get wrong and how to avoid pushback How to use packaging to reduce discounting, increase ACV, and drive expansion Whether you're scaling a SaaS product or leading a GTM transformation, this episode will challenge how you think about pricing. and give you the playbook to make it work.Flat or slowing revenue?

Irish digital marketing agency Vroom Digital has been recognised at the 2025 European Search Awards, taking home two category wins for work delivered in partnership with EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum. The awards ceremony took place earlier this month in Krakow, Poland, bringing together Europe's leading agencies to celebrate innovation in digital search and performance marketing. Recognised as a benchmark of excellence across the industry, the European Search Awards honour outstanding work in SEO, paid media, and digital PR. Vroom Digital took home two major awards for standout campaigns created in partnership with EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum. Competing against agencies from across Europe, the team secured Best Use of PR in a Search Campaign for The Love Story Before 'Love Story': Driving Links Through PR & Storytelling, a campaign that paired emotional narrative with a strategic digital PR approach. They also won Best Use of Social Media in a Search Campaign for The EPIC Untold Story Behind Fairytale of New York, which tapped into nostalgia and platform-specific creative to drive engagement and boost search visibility. Both campaigns were executed in close collaboration with EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum, combining emotional storytelling, strategic PR, and targeted digital distribution to drive meaningful engagement and improve search performance. Shane Curtin, CEO & Founder of Vroom Digital, said, "We're incredibly proud to see these campaigns recognised on a European stage. It's a true testament to the strength of our partnership with EPIC and their creative partners, Public House, and the collaborative thinking that drives success on all sides. At Vroom, we've built a team that thrives on delivering culturally relevant, performance-led campaigns - and these awards reflect our commitment to meaningful storytelling that delivers real results. Working with EPIC gave us the opportunity to push creative and strategic boundaries, and to show the impact that smart, well-executed digital - across PR and paid media - can truly have when driven by insight and intention." The agency continues to strengthen its reputation for delivering integrated digital campaigns that balance creativity with performance. These European Search Award wins follow recent recognition at The Spider Awards, Ireland's longest-running digital awards, where Vroom received the Grand Prix and Best in Storytelling award. Vroom Digital delivers tailored SEO, Paid Media, and Digital PR strategies that help clients cut through the noise, build a stronger online presence, and drive measurable growth.
