In this episode of In Demand, Asia and Kim continue their two-part series on SaaS marketing channels with a rapid-fire breakdown of the most common growth channels available to SaaS companies. They cover everything from word of mouth, SEO, and social ads to conferences, partnerships, PLG, engineering as marketing, ABM, and community building. Throughout the episode, Asia explains which channels tend to work best, where founders waste money, and why context always matters more than trends or generic advice. This episode is a practical guide to evaluating marketing channels, understanding the tradeoffs behind each one, and avoiding the trap of searching for a universal “best” growth strategy.

In this episode of In Demand, Asia and Kim dive into one of the most misunderstood topics in SaaS growth: how to choose the right marketing channels for your company. This is part one of a two-part series on SaaS marketing channels. In this episode, they focus on the strategy behind channel selection, including customer behavior, levels of awareness, ARPU, and how different markets discover products in completely different ways. They unpack why there is no universal “best” marketing strategy, how founders fall into silver bullet thinking, and why the companies that succeed either get very lucky or build strong strategic processes for understanding their market. This episode is a deep dive on how to think strategically about SaaS marketing instead of blindly copying tactics that worked for someone else.

#906 What if the most powerful lead generation tool for your business costs absolutely nothing? In part one of this two-part episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with college admissions consultant and former PR professional Carter Osborne, who shares how he spent four years juggling two full-time jobs before making the leap to run his own business — and how he used strategic media relations to fuel its growth. Carter breaks down why getting featured in outlets like CNBC builds instant credibility with potential clients, how to identify the right media targets across three tiers of publications, and why the key to landing coverage isn't selling yourself — it's making a reporter's job easier. Whether you're still in side-hustle mode or already running your own business, Carter's framework for crafting pitches that actually get responses is something every entrepreneur needs to hear! What we discuss with Carter: + Side hustle to full-time leap + The hidden cost of doing both + PR as free lead generation + Third-party validation builds trust + Organic vs. pay-to-play media + Tiered media list strategy + Crafting a newsworthy hook + Building real reporter relationships + Lead with their needs, not yours Thank you, Carter!

#907 What does it actually take to turn a cold email into a media feature — and then turn that feature into a lasting relationship? In part two of this two-part episode, Carter Osborne picks up where he left off, diving deep into the craft of pitching reporters the right way. Carter explains why templates are the enemy of a great pitch, how to tailor your outreach to each reporter's specific beat, and why brevity might be the single most important element of any cold email. He also shares what to expect after a reporter says yes — whether that's a live interview or an email Q&A — and how to maintain those relationships without becoming the person they dread seeing in their inbox. Plus, Carter opens up about a hard-learned lesson from a Wall Street Journal reporter he accidentally scared off with an overly enthusiastic email. If you've ever wondered how small businesses can realistically measure the ROI of PR efforts, Carter breaks that down too — and makes a compelling case for why media relations might be the highest-leverage, zero-cost growth tool any entrepreneur is sleeping on! What we discuss with Carter: + Why templates kill a good pitch + Matching your pitch to the reporter's beat + Brevity is everything in cold outreach + Using subject lines that get opened + What happens after a reporter says yes + Interview vs. email Q&A formats + Keeping reporter relationships warm without being annoying + The Wall Street Journal lesson learned the hard way + Why PR metrics are notoriously hard to measure + Media relations as a zero-cost growth tool Thank you, Carter!

Over half of marketers are targeting sub-segments rather than all potential buyers. And 62% aren't even targeting people over 45, a group that accounts for 50% of consumer spending.This week, Elena, Angela, and Rob tackle one of the most debated questions in marketing: how do you actually reach the right people on mass channels like TV? They dig into why narrow targeting can quietly shrink your business, how creative can do more of the targeting work than your media buy, and what it really looks like to transition from performance digital to TV. Topics covered:• [01:00] Les Binet and Will Davis research on budget vs. ROI• [03:00] Why narrow targeting creates a "death spiral"• [06:00] Why TV's business impact has increased as media fragmented• [08:00] How creative can target more effectively than media selection• [10:00] How a linear TV buy actually works• [14:00] Brand building vs. activation• [17:00] How to transition from performance digital to TVTo learn more, visit marketingarchitects.com/podcast or subscribe to our newsletter at marketingarchitects.com/newsletter.Resources:2025 IPA Article: https://ipa.co.uk/news/go-big-or-go-homeGet more research-backed marketing strategies by subscribing to The Marketing Architects on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
Alex Sherman, CEO of Bluefish, says brands need to start treating AI like a true marketing channel, not just another variation of SEO. As consumers shift from search engines to answer engines like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot, Sherman explains why it's no longer enough to simply “show up”—brands need to control how they're represented, what data models learn from, and how they influence AI-generated recommendations. He breaks down how Bluefish works with major brands to close the growing “content gap,” optimize for machine-readable data, and measure performance across new AI KPIs like visibility, favorability, and influence. Plus: why the marketing funnel isn't dead but accelerating, how companies are moving from playing defense to offense in AI, and what the rise of agentic commerce could mean for the future of paid media.

You're not stuck because you're not doing enough.You're stuck because you're doing too much… without knowing what's actually working. Posting more. Adding platforms. Trying everything. But if someone asked you right now, what's actually bringing in clients? Would you have a clear answer? Or would you go quiet? In this direct and tactical solo episode, George breaks down one of the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs are making right now: Confusing activity with effectiveness. In a world where attention is shrinking and content is exploding, being on every platform is no longer a strategy, it's a distraction. George introduces a simple but powerful framework to help you identify what's actually working in your business, eliminate what isn't, and double down on the channels that truly drive results. This episode is your permission slip to stop doing more… and start doing what matters. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Why being on every platform is hurting your business The difference between activity vs actual results What “channel anxiety” is and how it shows up Why attention is the scarcest resource in today's market How to define what “working” actually means The 4-step framework to validate your marketing channels Why vanity metrics are misleading (and what to track instead) How to make confident, data-driven decisions in your business Key Takeaways: ✔️More channels ≠ more results. Clarity wins. ✔️Being busy is not the same as being effective. ✔️Attention is limited, doing less, better is the advantage. ✔️Vanity metrics (likes, followers, reach) do not equal growth. ✔️Real metrics = conversations, leads, and sales. ✔️Treat every channel like an experiment, not a commitment. ✔️Cutting what doesn't work is a strategic move, not failure. ✔️Relationships, not platforms, are what actually grow your business. Timestamps & Highlights: [00:00] – Why doing more isn't working anymore [02:00] – The uncomfortable question: what's actually working? [05:00] – The problem with being on too many platforms [08:00] – Attention is the scarcest resource (data + reality) [11:00] – What “channel anxiety” really is [14:00] – The 4-step framework to validate a channel [16:00] – Defining what “working” actually means [18:00] – Why vanity metrics will lie to you [20:00] – How to make clean decisions: double down, adjust, or exit [22:00] – Why relationships beat algorithms every time Your Challenge This Week: If this episode hit… Share it with someone who's stuck in the “doing more” loop DM @itsgeorgebryant and tell me what channel you're testing And most importantly, pick one channel this week and measure what actually matters.

I've been really excited for this conversation because we're diving into something that so many marketers overlook.In this episode of Marketing vs. the World, I sit down with Phil Caplin, founder of Broadcast Revolution, to unpack the world of broadcast PR. From TV and radio to podcasts, we explore why this channel is so powerful, why it's often misunderstood, and what it actually takes to land meaningful coverage that makes an impact.What You'll Discover- Why Broadcast PR Still Matters: TV and radio build trust and credibility in a way social media simply can't match.- Coverage vs. Impact: It's easy to get on air, but creating meaningful coverage that drives real results is where the real skill lies.- The Strategy Most Brands Miss: Broadcast isn't an add-on, it needs its own plan, audience understanding, and long-term thinking.What really stood out to me in this conversation is how much intention sits behind great broadcast PR. It's not about chasing volume or ticking a box, it's about understanding the audience, crafting the right story, and being clear on the outcome you want. That shift from “we want to be on TV” to “what impact do we want to create” is where everything changes.We also get into how broadcast fits into the wider marketing mix, especially alongside social media. It's not one or the other. Broadcast gives you credibility, and then social amplifies it. That combination is where things really start to scale.If you've ever thought broadcast PR was out of reach, too expensive, or just not relevant to your strategy, this episode might change your mind.Marketing vs The World is brought to you by Monday Clicks, the Content First SEO and GEO agency.

#191: In this episode of Over a Pint, Maureen Norman, founder of Stake Media Group , discusses the evolving landscape of digital media and the massive, often overlooked opportunity in the 55+ demographic. Norman, an advertising veteran, shares her journey from traditional copywriting to launching the daily newsletter "Stake Your Day," which has grown to over 100,000 subscribers by focusing on "nostalgia news and info you can use". Key highlights from the conversation include: The "Silver" Opportunity: Norman identifies a significant gap in marketing that often ends at age 54, despite 12,000 people in North America turning 65 every day. Marketing Insights: Norman reveals that while the 55+ audience is massive, they are more motivated by shared values and specific needs than age-based identifiers. The Pivot to a Newsletter Studio: Recognizing the maturity of the newsletter space, Stake Media Group is expanding into a "newsletter studio" model. This new venture offers brands white-labeled content and strategic expertise to help them navigate the complexities of the modern inbox. The Human Touch in the Age of AI: Despite using AI for information gathering, Norman remains committed to 100% human-written content. Ultimately, the episode explores how digital media can still be a space for authentic relationship building, provided creators focus on serving their audience's purpose rather than just chasing the latest market opportunity.

Let me ask you something. When did you last send a planned, consistent email campaign to your database? Not a one-off update when you had a vacancy. Not a quick check-in because you remembered someone existed. A proper campaign. Sequenced. Segmented. Designed to build trust with the people who are not ready to work with you yet. For most recruitment business owners, the honest answer is: not recently. Or never. And that is costing you more than you realise. Today I want to make the case for email marketing. Not because it is new or exciting, but because it is one of the highest-ROI channels available to you as a recruitment business owner, and most of your competitors are either not using it at all or using it in a way that leaves most of the value sitting on the table. We are going to cover four things: Why most recruitment email marketing misses the mark entirely. Why email still outperforms every other channel on ROI. How you can use it to reach both clients and candidates simultaneously, a genuine advantage most businesses overlook. And what separates the campaigns that generate results from the ones that go quiet after one or two sends. Let us get into it. What You Will Learn Why sending one-off emails to your database is costing you pipeline, and what to do instead Why email consistently outperforms social media on return on investment, and what the numbers actually say How to nurture both clients and candidates at the same time using one system The five habits that separate email campaigns which generate results from the ones that go quiet after two sends Why Most Recruitment Email Marketing Misses The Mark There is one distinction I want to make first, because I think it is the single biggest reason most recruitment businesses are not getting results from their email. Most businesses send emails. Very few run campaigns. And that difference is where all the opportunity is sitting. The blast approach looks like this. You have a vacancy to fill, or it has been a while since you were in touch with your database, so you send something out. It is pitch-heavy. It is aimed at the people who are ready to act right now. And everyone else? They do not hear from you again. Until they are already talking to someone else. Here is the thing. At any one time, only 3% to 7% of your market is ready to buy. That is it. So if every email you send is an attempt to convert someone who is ready right now, you are completely ignoring the other 93%. That 93% will become ready eventually. The question is, will they remember you when they do? The campaign approach is completely different. It is a planned sequence. Consistent. Built around content that is genuinely useful to your audience. So you are staying visible and building trust with the people who are not ready yet. And when they are ready, you are the obvious choice. Here is a number that really brings this to life. Segmented email campaigns generate 760% more revenue than unsegmented ones. That is from Campaign Monitor. Not a small difference. That is the difference between a database that works for you and one that just sits there doing nothing. Why Email Still Wins Some of you will have heard people say that email is dying. That social media is where it is at. I want to put that to rest right now. Email delivers £46 for every £1 spent. That is the average. Done well, it is considerably higher. 91% of B2B marketers say email is critical to their strategy. Not useful. Critical. And for recruitment specifically, the average open rate is 31%. The general average across all industries is 21%. So your emails, when they are relevant and well written, are already more likely to be opened than in most sectors. While everyone is focused on their LinkedIn engagement dropping or the latest social media algorithm change, email is quietly doing the heavy lifting. It outperforms social media on ROI. It outperforms paid advertising. And it gives you something no social media platform can ever give you: a direct, uninterrupted line to someone’s inbox. Think about that. When someone opens your email, it is just you and them. There is no algorithm deciding whether they see it. No competitor’s post appearing right next to yours. That is an incredibly powerful position when you use it well. The Dual Audience Advantage Here is where it gets really interesting for recruiters, and it is something I think most businesses completely overlook. Most B2B businesses have one audience. You have two. You have clients, the hiring managers and business owners who need great people. And you have candidates, the professionals looking for their next opportunity. Email campaigns let you nurture both at the same time, with content that is tailored to each. For your clients, that might be salary guides, sector hiring trends, thought leadership on the talent challenges they are facing. Content that positions you as the expert they want in their corner when they need to hire. For your candidates, it might be job alerts, career development tips, salary benchmarks, sector news relevant to their specialism. Content that keeps them engaged and coming back to you rather than going elsewhere. Two audiences. Two content streams. One system. That is a genuine competitive advantage. Most of your competitors are either not emailing at all, or they are sending the same message to everyone, which as we have already covered, is not going to cut it. Five Habits That Separate Results From Radio Silence Most recruitment businesses have a database. Very few use it consistently and strategically. Here are five habits I see in the campaigns that actually work. Habit One: One Email, One Message, One Call To Action Do not try to say everything in every send. One clear ask, every time. That discipline alone will improve your results. Habit Two: Send From A Named Person A named sender generates 27% higher open rates than a company inbox. People open emails from people, not from brands. It sounds obvious, but you would be surprised how many businesses are still sending from info@ or hello@. Habit Three: Segment Your List Clients and candidates always get separate campaigns. Right content, right audience. If you are sending the same email to everyone, you are speaking to no one. Habit Four: Keep A Consistent Cadence One email will not build a pipeline. You need to show up regularly to stay front of mind. I know some of you are already thinking “I do not have time to write that much content.” That is a real challenge, and it is exactly the kind of thing we help members solve inside Superfast Circle. Habit Five: Coordinate With LinkedIn Email outreach that mirrors what you are posting on LinkedIn compounds your results. You are appearing in multiple places, reinforcing the same message, building the same trust. That is the compounding effect in action. And the numbers back all of this up. Personalised subject lines drive 26% to 50% higher open rates. These are not marginal gains. They are significant when you apply them consistently. The Results You Can Expect Before I wrap up, I want to share some benchmarks, because I think they provide really important context. 79% of leads never convert without nurturing. Think about that. Nearly four out of five potential opportunities are lost if you are not following up and staying in touch. That is an enormous amount of business going to someone else by default. Nurtured contacts produce 50% more sales-ready leads, and they spend 47% more when they do buy. That is the compounding effect of consistent, valuable communication. For recruitment email sequences specifically, well-run campaigns achieve open rates of 35% to 45%. That is well above the industry average. And your welcome email, the first email someone gets from you, generates four times more opens and ten times more clicks than a standard send. That first impression matters enormously. Are you making the most of it? What To Do Next: Your Action Steps Information on its own does not move the needle. Action does. So here are three practical starting points. First, audit what you are currently doing. Be honest with yourself. Are you sending one-off blasts when the mood takes you, or do you have a planned campaign sequence that runs consistently? Most recruiters are in blast mode. Knowing where you are starting from is the first step. Second, look at your database. How many of those contacts are not ready yet? That is your biggest untapped opportunity. Campaigns are how you stay visible to them until they are. Third, think honestly about whether you have the system in place to do this consistently. Because that is the part most recruiters find hardest. It is not the intention. The intention is usually there. It is the time, the content, knowing what to write, how often to send it, and how to segment it properly. The shift from blast to campaign is where the real opportunity is. And it is not as complicated as it sounds when you have the right system in place. Thanks Denise How We Can Help You This Year Knowing what to do is one thing. Doing it consistently is another.

In this episode, we're joined by Kendall Breitman, Community Lead at Riverside.fm, to unpack what it really takes to build meaningful community in a noisy, content-saturated world. A former reporter turned community builder, Kendall shares why trust has to come before tactics, why video is one of the most powerful tools for connection when used with intention, and how brands and creators can stop chasing reach and start building relationships that actually last. Whether you're creating content, leading a brand, or thinking about community in 2026 and beyond, this conversation will challenge how you think about growth, visibility, and showing up online.Key Takeaways:// Community starts with trust, not platforms or tactics — strategy comes before tools.// Video works when it's human, not overproduced or performance-driven.// Connection requires intention — reach alone doesn't build loyalty.// Brands earn trust by showing up consistently, transparently, and with real value.Connect with Kendall: LinkedInLearn more about Riverside: Website____Join the MHH Collective!

Everyone's talking about Substack. LinkedIn is having its main character moment. Threads is... well, we're not really sure what Threads is doing anymore. And you're over here wondering if you're supposed to be on all of them.I get this question literally every week in my Breakthrough Intensives: "Should I start a Substack? Should I finally commit to TikTok? What about YouTube—is it too late?"And my answer? It depends. Not on what everyone else is doing. Not on what's "hot" right now. On what your business actually needs.This episode is how to stop chasing platforms and start making decisions based on your data.Inside the episode:Why long-form written content (blog or Substack) still matters in 2026When Substack makes sense for your business (and when it doesn't)How to audit what's actually working in your marketing right nowThe platform decision framework I use with consulting clientsLinks:Book a 90-Minute Brand Intensive: Buy hereLearn About 6-Month Brand Consulting: HereConnect with me on Instagram: @klc.thestudio
Ever wonder which channel is “best” in 2026 — Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, email, networking, or cold outreach?In this quick bonus episode, Maggie shares the truth: there's no magic platform. Any channel can convert when you choose it based on your ideal client and back it with the right positioning + messaging.You'll learn how to:Pick channels based on where your clients actually look for answersMake the channel convert by speaking in your client's language (not industry jargon)Stop chasing trends and start building a simple, repeatable approachPress play and choose your channel strategically — then make it work.
One benefit of getting older? You see patterns over a longer horizon. And here's one I keep seeing in sales and marketing: people proclaiming channels are dead. Cold calling is dead—nobody answers their phone. Webinars don't work. Cold email is ruined by spam filters. LinkedIn organic content doesn't work. Canvassing is impossible. DM selling has been destroyed by automation. I've heard every single one of these channels proclaimed dead—sometimes by people I actually respect who used to crush it in that channel, then didn't evolve with it, and now their message is "it doesn't work." Here's what I know from seeing inside 500 MSPs last year: when we do attribution exercises on closed deals, every single fucking one of those "dead" channels is represented. Which means they DO work. The question isn't "does it work?" It's "do you know how to make it work?" This episode breaks down why the biggest mistake is looking for a channel that works instead of picking one and committing to making it work. Learn the cycle every channel goes through (hard learning curve → figure it out → generate results → shit changes → adapt), why that cycle is actually good because if it was easy everyone would do it, and why harder channels give you longer reward cycles. Stop saying "this doesn't work" and start saying "I don't know how to make this work yet." The reframe matters. I saw someone post "cold calling's dead" on LinkedIn and thought "God, here we go again." So that's my drop for today.//Welcome to Repeatable Revenue, hosted by strategic growth advisor , Ray J.

Cash Flow Forecasting is Critical Most businesses fail because they don't understand their cash flow. Luke emphasizes tracking money coming in and going out, and warns against overextending on capital-intensive projects. 2. Double Down on What Works When a marketing channel or business strategy is successful, keep investing and scaling. Luke's philosophy is to keep pushing when you're seeing positive results, whether it's in marketing, recruiting, or business operations. 3. Data-Driven Decision Making Remove emotion from business decisions. Use metrics, KPIs, and dashboards to make informed choices. Track everything and continuously optimize based on real data. 4. TV Marketing Can Be a Game-Changer TV advertising offers unique advantages like high reach, low friction, and the ability to have potential sellers call you, instead of you chasing leads. With the right strategy, it can deliver 4- 5x ROI. 5. Balance is Key Success isn't just about business growth. Luke stresses the importance of family, personal time, and not losing sight of why you're working hard. The goal is to create opportunities for your family while being present in their lives.
