Vom ersten Problem bis zur Lieferantenbewertung. Wir sprechen über die drei Kaufarten, die acht Phasen des Beschaffungsprozesses und darüber, warum es fürs Marketing entscheidend ist zu wissen, wer im Unternehmen wirklich mitredet. Vom Techniker bis zum Management.____________________________________________Marketing-News der Woche:Wohin sich Media-Budgets 2026 verschiebenDas neue OWM-Trendbarometer zeigt, dass viele Unternehmen für 2026 mit stabilen oder sinkenden Media-Budgets rechnen, zugleich aber stärker in Wirkungsmessung, Daten und KI investieren wollen. Kampagnen müssen sauber getrackt, klare KPIs festgelegt und Tests entlang der Customer Journey eingeplant werden, statt nur das Budget hochzudrehen.Konsumlaune im Minus: Weihnachtsmarketing wird selektiver⁠Das HDE-Konsumbarometer meldet für November eine sinkende Stimmung, und auch das GfK-Konsumklima bleibt deutlich im Minus. Für Händler und Marken bedeutet das: Weihnachts- und Sale-Kampagnen funktionieren nur, wenn sie klaren Mehrwert kommunizieren, zielgenau ausgesteuert werden und nicht ausschließlich auf Rabatte setzen. Digitale Werbung und Social-Media-Marketing sollten stärker auf Nutzen, Orientierung und Vertrauen einzahlen.⁠Purpose-Marketing: Haltung als Prüfstein für Marken⁠Purpose ist keine schöne Überschrift für Imagefilme, sondern ein Maßstab für tägliche Entscheidungen. Wer in Social Media und Kampagnen große Worte macht, aber im Produkt oder beim Service anders handelt, riskiert Vertrauensverlust. Der Purpose muss sich konkret in Angeboten, Customer Experience und Performance-Kampagnen zeigen. Sonst bleibt er ein Buzzword.Fakeshops buchen Anzeigen bei Google & MetaLaut einer aktuellen Analyse des Verbraucherzentrale Bundesverbands schaltet rund jeder zweite Fakeshop Werbung bei Google oder auf Meta-Plattformen. Für Marketing-Teams stellt sich die Frage nach Brand Safety, seriöse Tracking-Setups und transparente UX.____________________________________________Vernetz dich gerne auf LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/luisbinder/⁠ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marketingimkopf/Du hast Fragen, Anregungen oder Ideen?

First up today, we're getting into OpenAI and ChatGPT shopping with the Shopify integration - including how we're approaching GEO, why bigger brands might have the edge, and why we're not going all in on optimization just yet.We also dig into SMS and email, where the real limit is on frequency, and the balance between driving conversions short-term vs unsubscribes vs retaining subscribers in the long-term.We share what we've tested, what the data shows about diminishing returns, and why most brands are probably leaving money on the table. We break down the difference between flows and campaigns, why flows can handle more volume, and how post-purchase upsells fit into this, from one-click add-ons to holding orders “double dash” style.We also check in on how podcast ads are performing at Jones Road - what the early results look like, why standard tracking under-attributes, and how we're thinking about picking winners to scale. To finish up, we talk through the first three marketing hires we'd make if we were building a brand from scratch today.If you have a question for the MOperators Hotline, click the link to be in with a chance of it being discussed on the show: https://forms.gle/1W7nKoNK5Zakm1Xv6Chapters:00:00:00 - Introduction00:10:22 - Our Approach to ChatGPT Shopping & GEO00:27:13 - Finding the Real Limit on SMS & Email Frequency00:38:37 - Post-Purchase Upsells: One-Click vs. "Double Dash" Style00:51:51 - Podcast Ads: Jones Road's Early Results & Attribution01:01:18 - Drafting Your First 3 Marketing HiresPowered by:Motion.⁠⁠⁠https://motionapp.com/pricing?utm_source=marketing-operators-podcast&utm_medium=paidsponsor&utm_campaign=march-2024-ad-reads⁠⁠⁠https://motionapp.com/creative-trendsPrescient AI.⁠⁠⁠https://www.prescientai.com/operatorsRichpanel.⁠⁠⁠https://www.richpanel.com/?utm_source=MO&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=ytdescAftersell.https://www.aftersell.com/operatorsRivo.https://www.rivo.io/operatorsSubscribe to the 9 Operators Podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/@Operators9Subscribe to the Finance Operators Podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/@FinanceOperatorsFOPSSign up to the 9 Operators newsletter here: https://9operators.com/

In this episode, we're joined by Frida Ahrenby, CMO at Rillion, the AP automation platform expanding aggressively in the US with a new Austin hub. Frida breaks down how she rebuilt marketing from zero to a lean, 10-person, high-output team, starting with a performance+ops backbone, overhauling content/SEO, and leaning hard into field marketing for CFO buyers, while keeping creativity human in an AI-accelerated org. We spoke with Frida about sequencing the first hires, structuring around three pods (Demand Gen incl. Field, Brand/Content/Design, Product & Customer Marketing), and using AI to multiply output without outsourcing originality. She shares how to avoid silos and title inflation, decide what must be owned in-house to truly own the number, and what it really takes to crack the US market from a European base. Here are some of the key questions we address: How do you build a lean, unsiloed marketing org that still scales output (and keeps standards high) with AI in the mix? What's the exact hiring sequence from a blank slate: why start with performance/ops, then content/SEO, then expand demand? Own it in-house or outsource? A simple rule for speed, agility, and true metric ownership and when agencies still help. Which marketing roles will compress vs. which remain decisively human in the AI era? What skills win now: how to hire for smart, analytical, creative demand gen, and deeply curious content that drives revenue?

Staying stuck in the trenches is slowing your growth. In this episode, Emma shares a truth she's seen over and over in 10+ years of working with founder-led brands: you become a better founder when you have a marketing team. Emma breaks down the identity shift that happens when founders stop being the do-it-all person and start stepping fully into leadership. She's lived this transition firsthand and supported countless clients through it. From managing every detail of their social media to replying to every DM, many founders are too involved in the day-to-day. That level of control doesn't lead to scale, it leads to burnout and bottlenecks. Hear Emma offer a simple but game-changing perspective: when you step back from execution, you create space for your most important role – the visionary.  Listen in as Emma explains: The challenges and big payoffs of shedding the “do-it-all” founder identity Why letting go of tasks like social media execution will create the space to lead and innovate How to find the kinds of strategic support that will kickstart your growth And so much more!   Connect with Ninety Five Media: Website Instagram  Need Support with Your Podcast?
