Everyone's talking about AI slop. But is it really an AI problem, or is it a tool problem? Adam Creeger, CTO at Slate, and Michael Horton, co-founder and CEO, have seen this from every angle, from Meta's video feed to the social media managers creating content on the fly for major brands. And their take is refreshingly honest: most tools right now just aren't built for professionals who actually care about quality. And they break down the 80/20 framework for AI content creation, why AI should handle the tedious 80% so you can spend more time perfecting the last 20% that actually makes content stand out. Plus, why brand guardrails in AI aren't about limiting creativity, they're more like a GPS that lets you take the scenic route and still find your way back. If you're a Marketer who wants to use AI to create better content without sacrificing your brand voice, this is the episode for you. Slate is the one stop content creation platform for social media teams. With AI assisted video and image editing, branding, and collaboration all in one platform.

If you're making Marketing decisions based on your email open rates and click numbers, you might be working with completely made up data. Jay and Daniel break down the bot problem that's quietly inflating every metric in your ESP, and why those garbage scores are exactly why your BDRs and SDRs hate the leads they're getting. Daniel explains why his newsletter uses a honeypot link at the top just to measure how much bot activity is happening, and why clicks should never be the end goal anyway. They also make the case for zero click content and no agenda Marketing: giving your audience real value without asking for anything in return, so when they are finally ready to buy, you are the first brand they think of.

The Good Work - Week Three - The Book of Titus Titus 1:5-9 Pastor Christopher Ek www.bethanycovenant.com
Don't listen to everything you hear…in the AI age, SEO is NOT dead. It's just expanding. Guest Mike Witham of 97th Floor Agency breaks down what it all means. Some people thought AI would kill SEO, but the truth is that SEO isn't going anywhere. We just have to learn how to partner with AI to optimize search, especially when it comes to showing up in AI summaries. Marketers have to adapt to new search rules, plus AEO and GEO capabilities. What's the difference between using AI and using a search engine to find information? The key is keywords: while people are searching via AI in an experimental way, SEO thrives on keywords. You have to make sure you're optimizing for that to drive traffic. Should you ask AI for sources? And if you do, will it provide credible ones? Plus, we're in the age of chatbots and relevancy. What are some good tools to make sure your chatbots are not only giving relevant information, but accurate information, too? If you're looking to level up your SEO knowledge and anticipate what's going on with AI, AEO/GEO, this is the episode for YOU.

What if the best AI tools in the world still can't replace a great Marketer? Reza, Co-founder and CEO of Motion, has spent over a decade at the intersection of creative and performance Marketing, and his take on AI is one you don't hear enough: the goal isn't to let AI find your edge. It's to eliminate the tech advantage so the best Marketers win. And, he breaks down how Motion is building AI infrastructure that does all the heavy lifting behind the scenes, from pre-watching thousands of ad creatives to giving every customer their own dedicated virtual machine, so Marketers can stop tinkering with tools and get back to the thing that actually drives results. Plus, Reza explains why the creative strategist role is quietly becoming the most important role in Marketing, and how the best ones aren't just running ads…they're influencing the direction of the entire business. If you're a Marketer who wants to understand where creative strategy is headed in the age of AI, this is the episode for you.

Welcome back to Fintech Takes. I'm Alex Johnson, and today's episode is a little different. Before I wrote a newsletter for a living, I spent the beginning of my career working in B2B marketing in fintech and financial services. So this episode is built around the provocation that B2B marketing sucks, but it doesn't have to. First up, Cokie Hasiotis (Head of Vertical Marketing at Socure and author of the For the Plot newsletter) and Julie VerHage Greenberg (founder of Quinnovation and formerly a co-founder and writer of Fintech Today and reporter at Bloomberg) join me to diagnose B2B marketing's boring problem. It's an industry where 80% of decisions are made emotionally, and yet it runs on copy that makes you feel nothing. We get into why the head of content is a job designed to fail, and why founders are so bad at telling their own stories. Then, Jessica Kendall (Head of Content and Communications at Spinwheel) joins me to talk about messaging. We also get into the two AI problems every marketing team now has to own (tune in to find out!). And last but not least, Adam Ryan (co-founder and CEO of Workweek) joins me to talk about why B2B marketers can rarely prove the value of decisions they know were right. Blame the hidden sales cycle, and the tenure problem (the average executive B2B marketer lasts 18 months, often not even a full sales cycle). We dig into: What would B2B marketing look like if it remembered that buyers are humans? Can you measure a changed mind? If AI can produce infinite “good enough” content, what's left that buyers will trust? And so much more! Tune in for a curious tour through the discipline that decides what our entire industry reads, watches, and believes.

What's actually breaking through on social right now? Daniel sits down with Samantha Yehle, who has spent years helping brands navigate the ever changing world of content, social media, and Digital Marketing. As a Brand and Social Media Consultant, she has seen firsthand what separates brands that get ignored from brands that earn attention. She shares why social media has become the new homepage for brands, how Marketers can build better content instincts, and why creativity and taste matter more than ever in a world flooded with AI generated content. She also breaks down the biggest mistakes companies make when building social teams…and how your personal content could be a brand indicator.

Are you leaving conversions on the table by playing it too safe with email? Jay makes the case for sending two emails in a single day - he backs it up with data showing conversion and sign up rates jump over 35% when you pair an urgency send in the morning with a scarcity send in the afternoon or evening. Daniel adds why text message reminders are a massively underused tool for getting people to actually show up, and why the right people staying on your list matters way more than keeping your unsubscribe rate pretty. They also get into one of the most important mindset shifts in Marketing: your audience is not paying as much attention to you as you think. If you're a Marketer looking to change up your strategy right away, this is the episode for you.

What happens when a skincare brand founded before social media becomes one of TikTok's biggest beauty success stories? Ryan Roth grew up around Peter Thomas Roth Clinical Skin Care, but when he joined the family business, he saw a new opportunity. Instead of relying on traditional beauty marketing, he helped build a modern influencer engine that turned viral moments into lasting growth. From a TikTok video that saved a product from discontinuation to launching one of the brand's fastest-growing channels through TikTok Shop, Ryan shares how social media transformed a 30-year-old skincare company. He also reveals why his 101-year-old grandmother became one of the brand's most beloved creators and why the most successful campaigns often come from the people you least expect.

How do you market the biggest sporting event on Earth?

After more than two decades leading global campaigns for brands like P&G, Unilever, Pfizer, and Gillette, Bettina stepped into what she calls a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: helping bring the FIFA World Cup to North America.

CEOs have been making some bold claims about how artificial intelligence will change work—that in the future, the work week will shrink to four days or fewer, or that a job will be as optional as growing vegetables at home instead of buying them from the grocery store. Whether AI makes us work more or less, there’s no question it’s already changing the way millions of people do their jobs. On today's episode, how is AI transforming the workplace now? And how can everyday workers prepare for the future? Coming up: We're looking into the "IRL Economy."

What does it actually look like to build a personal brand when you're just someone who works in Marketing and wants to show up online? In this special episode, Daniel sits down with Carmen Vicente, Content and Social Lead at Slate, to discuss what it takes to build visibility in today's marketing landscape. Carmen shares her journey from spending more than a decade in the beer industry to making a leap into tech, why she views personal branding as career insurance rather than self-promotion, and how Marketers can start creating content without feeling like influencers. Plus, Carmen breaks down how she's using AI to streamline content creation, analyze performance, and even stress-test posts before they go live. This episode is about the flywheel of trust: how posting creates credibility, credibility creates reach, and reach creates opportunity for the brand you work for.

Welcome to the The Achievers Podcast. I'm your host, Amber Deibert, Performance Coach. I help enterprise sellers unlock their full potential by aligning their work with how they workout and cleaning up mindset trash, so they can sell more, stress less, and take back control of their time and success. You plow through your workday, take a two-second break that is really just checking the doctor's office voicemail, and wonder why you have nothing left for your family by 6 pm. You assume more grit will fix it. In this episode, I unpack why intentional rest is the missing ingredient for high performers, how the stress cycle either raises your capacity or crashes your baseline, and why nature, menstrual cycles, and your favorite workout all point to the same truth: contrast is what makes sustained performance possible.
You already have VIPs in your database. You're just not treating them that way. Jay and Daniel break down the segments most Marketers completely overlook, and why the people already showing high-intent signals are often more valuable than the customers you already closed. Jay lays out the behaviors that should automatically flag someone as a VIP: repeat website visits, multiple email clicks, product video views. None of that is accidental, and none of it should be treated like a regular contact. Daniel makes the case for pain point segmentation and why lifetime value of your audience deserves just as much attention as lifetime value of your customers. If you're a Marketer looking to work smarter, not harder, this is the episode for you.

The Good Work: The Letter to Titus - Week OneTitus 1:1-4Pastor Christopher Ek This summer we are setting sail for the ancient island of Crete, following a man named Titus into one of the most challenging ministry assignments in the New Testament. The culture was hostile. The churches were fragile. The need was urgent. And the letter Paul wrote to guide him there has been asking the same searching question ever since: Does what you believe actually change how you live? Listen to the first week of The Good Work as we start to answer this question. www.bethanycovenant.com
Daniel and James sit down with Adam Ryan, CEO and co-founder of Workweek, the media-tech company that's home to the five largest professional communities across fintech, HR, e-commerce, marketing, and healthcare. Adam built the company on a simple insight: the people with the most professional experience are the least likely to share it publicly. So he built Workweek to solve it, pulling from his days as the first hire and president of The Hustle before its sale to HubSpot.The conversation digs into Workweek's newly announced partner platform, which connects newsletter ad engagement signals directly back to advertiser CRMs. Adam shares that 95% of newsletter clicks today are bots, that his platform is matching 44% of Fortune 500 CRMs, and that sales teams are claiming 3-4x more credit than they deserve while marketing gets none. If you've ever wondered why proving newsletter ROI feels impossible, this episode explains exactly why and how Workweek is changing it.Thank you to our sponsors: AdQuick — adquick.com Thrad.ai — thrad.ai beehiiv — beehiiv.com The Farm — thefarmllp.com STAY CONNECTEDJames on Twitter & LinkedIn – /jamesborowDaniel on LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok – /danieldrugerSubscribe & leave a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review on Spotify & Apple Podcasts.
What if the problem with “cultural Christianity” is not that people don't care, but that many were never discipled into maturity?In the final week of Disciples at Work, Pastor Nate Schaidt challenges us to rethink spiritual growth through Hebrews 5–6. Instead of shaming people for being stuck, this message asks what it looks like for the church to raise up spiritual mothers and fathers who help others follow Jesus where they live, work, and play.Support the show
For years, Marketers have known newsletter advertising works…but proving it has been nearly impossible. Daniel sits down with Adam Ryan, CEO of Workweek to discuss Workweek's new Partner Platform and why it could change how B2B marketers measure newsletter performance forever. They break down why traditional metrics like opens and clicks are often misleading, how bot traffic has distorted reporting, and why many Marketers have been under-crediting newsletters for years. Adam explains how Workweek is connecting newsletter engagement directly to CRM systems, helping marketers finally see the impact newsletters have on pipeline, revenue, and account engagement. And, a handful of decision-makers from the right accounts can be far more valuable than thousands of anonymous clicks. How can you make that happen right off the bat? If you're a Marketer who wants to learn more about ABM, brand marketing, creator-led advertising, attribution challenges, and why the future of B2B marketing is about knowing who engaged, this is the episode for you.

Are your webinars actually driving pipeline or are you just checking a box? Jay and Daniel break down the small mistakes that tank webinar performance and the easy fixes that make a real difference. Jay explains why a specific, curiosity-driven title beats a fluffy, descriptive one every time, and why two reminder emails on the day of your event is not too many. Daniel makes the case for serializing your webinars on a consistent schedule so your audience starts treating them like a show, not a one-off event. And, why do live attendees convert to pipeline at 400% higher rates than on-demand viewers? Jay gives an explanation.

Flourishing At Work - Redeeming Work (Week 4) - Jason Frizzell by C*Road Church
If you have ever physically closed your laptop on a Friday and still could not actually stop, like brain still running, guilt already building about everything that did not get done then this one is going to feel like a exhale. The weekend is not supposed to be where your work week goes to die. It is supposed to be the farmers market and the slow morning and the kitchen dance party. The thing you actually worked all week for. But none of that happens by accident. It happens because Friday has a job. In this episode I am sharing the exact Friday reset routine I use to close my work week with intention, hand Monday off before it arrives, and actually disconnect. One hour. That is the whole trade. And on the other side of it is a weekend that is genuinely yours. xoxo, Chelsi Jo . . . . Learn how to build your Life and Business Operating System in a free 20-minute interactive masterclass
Patagonia isn't just scaling mountains. They're scaling through affiliate strategy. This episode's guest, Cricket Treanor, went from the sales floor to HQ's Affiliate Marketing and Ecom team. When it comes to partnerships, they're thinking outside the box: cash back with Rakuten, listicles of the “best jackets”, and speaking out about social issues, to name a few. What should you do as a brand when you don't lean heavily into loyalty and deals? And, Cricket debunks some misconceptions about the affiliate space. It's more than just loyalty, it's actually about brand awareness. Affiliates aren't taking sales away from other channels. Where do they fit into the marketing funnel? Plus, Patagonia is more than just selling products, they're aiming to bring environmental awareness and sustainability efforts to their audience. How does the buy-back program contribute to Marketing strategy? In a world of overconsumption, how do you get customers excited about new products when overconsumption contradicts the brand mission? If you're a Marketer who wants to learn more about how partnerships, affiliate strategy, and digital marketing all play a role in scaling, this is the episode for you.

Most insurance brands look the same, sound the same, and spend billions on ads to prove it. Amica decided to do the opposite. Daniel sits down with Tory Pachis (Executive Vice President & CMO of Amica Insurance) to break down how a 119-year-old, referral-only mutual insurer went from 2% unaided brand awareness to 70%…and why a jersey patch on the Boston Celtics was just the beginning. Tory shares how Amica built a sports marketing strategy around values alignment, not logo slaps, and why the Jason Tatum "Back to Zero" campaign became one of the most authentic brand stories in insurance. They get into why humor isn't the only tool in the insurance advertising toolbox, how to make the case for brand investment to a skeptical CFO, and what happens when your star athlete tears his Achilles the night after you sign the deal. They also dig into how Amica is thinking about AI and LLMs, and why a loyal customer base full of organic Reddit and Trustpilot reviews might be their biggest unfair advantage as search evolves. If you want to understand how challenger brands build modern relevance without abandoning their heritage, this episode is for you. Wrike brings structure, visibility, and accountability to work, so companies can make better business decisions, improve efficiency, and reduce risk.

Should you keep your Marketing running on holidays, or hit pause and wait for a better day? Jay and Daniel make the case for keeping the engine going, and back it up with actual tactics. Jay breaks down how to mine holiday auto-reply emails for retargeting gold and why long form content tends to perform especially well when people finally have time to read. Daniel explains why consistency beats timing every time, and why skipping one holiday post is how the skipping habit starts. They also get into what is happening with the LinkedIn algorithm right now, why posts are taking 24 to 48 hours to pick up steam, and why that actually works in your favor when everyone else goes quiet on a holiday.

Have a dog? If you're a Millennial or Gen Z, there's a good chance you're already owning your first pet. But do you have pet insurance? According to statistics, you probably don't. This episode's guest, Trey Ferro, is in the business of making sure you and your pet are insured. From unexpected vet visits to making sure your pup is fully vaccinated, pet insurance can help you have peace of mind. But how do you market such a “complicated” product? The answer is personalization. And, just how important is a good CTA? Trey reveals the double digit number difference between a good CTA and a bad one. If you're a Marketer who wants to learn more about Marketing tougher and more unique products, this is the episode for you.

Does everyone on your revenue team actually agree on who your ideal customer is? Daniel sits down with Hailey McDonald, the new VP of Revenue Marketing at Sprout Social, on day one of her new role. They get into one of the most expensive mistakes in B2B Marketing: building campaigns before your ICP is truly locked in across every team. Hailey breaks down why most companies are doing ABM in name only, how to tell within five minutes that a team's ICP is broken, and why getting Marketing, sales, CS, and rev ops aligned on a single definition is the foundation everything else is built on. She also explains the difference between ICP and total addressable market, and how pipeline hitting while revenue misses is one of the clearest signals something is off with your targeting. Daniel makes the case that personalization at scale is really just personality at scale, and why the brands that stay consistent with their messaging even under pressure are the ones that win long term. Plus, Hailey's marketing hill she would die on: you can't have demand without brand. If you're looking to actually understand and identify who your audience is, this episode is for you.

How do you follow Jesus with the same passion as a missionary…when your life looks painfully ordinary?Meetings. Deadlines. Kids. Bills. Emails. Pressure. Responsibilities. For many Christians, discipleship feels disconnected from normal life. But what if the problem isn't your job… What if the problem is how we've learned to think about discipleship itself?This week in Disciples at Work, through the lens of Matthew 4, we look at one of the most misunderstood ideas in modern Christianity:What does it actually mean to be a disciple?Support the show
Is your June Marketing strategy ready for one of the wildest months in recent memory? Jay and Daniel break down three major forces hitting the calendar at the same time. Jay explains why the second half of June through the second week of July is one of the worst performing stretches of the year for webinar attendance, B2B content downloads, and high-ticket consumer products, and why you need to plan around it now. Daniel makes the case for leaning into the FIFA World Cup with soccer-themed email copy and subject lines, whether you're a local brand or a global one. And Jay breaks down why Prime Day lifts all Marketing, not just Amazon sellers, including why people spend about 15% more time in their inboxes during that window.

Most Christians think mission only happens somewhere else — on a stage, across the world, or on a church trip. But what if Jesus intended disciple-making to happen both as we go and when we're sent? In Week 2 of Disciples at Work, we explore how the Great Commission reshapes ordinary life. Your workplace, neighborhood, classroom, gym, and routines may not be distractions from mission at all — they may be the very places where God has already sent you.Support the show
Is your LinkedIn content getting buried in the feed? Jay and Daniel are breaking down the sneaky, low-key tactics that are actually moving the needle on LinkedIn right now. Jay shares the embarrassingly simple trick he's been using for months: saving his own posts and sending them to a handful of people right after publishing. Daniel breaks down why the 800x999 image ratio is the secret weapon for dominating the LinkedIn feed and why your scroll time (and engagement) skyrockets when you use it. They also get into why LinkedIn automation tools are a hard no, why the platform will blacklist you without warning, and why Instagram is a completely different story when it comes to tools like ManyChat. If you're posting on LinkedIn and need a boost, this episode is for you. If you want quick wins in social and paid right now, this episode is all about spotting the signals and moving before everyone else does.

April 29, 2026: Bill Gates is predicting a 2-day workweek. Jamie Dimon says 3.5. Eric Yuan, the CEO of Zoom, says 5 days is over. Fortune just amplified a major study claiming we waste a full day every week procrastinating. The 4-day workweek movement has never had more wind at its back. In this episode, I'm making the bulletproof business case against it. I'll walk through eight reasons the case doesn't hold up — and why the policy isn't likely to spread broadly anytime soon, even with all the keynote energy behind it. I'm covering the studies that don't measure what they claim to measure, the Iceland myth, the company failures that get scrubbed from the data, the AI rhetorical pivot, why the happiness data isn't actually a business case, the wage math nobody talks about, the competitive reality at the country and company level, and why even the countries running pilots are voting against legislating it.
Today I'm joined by Erikka Tiffani, General Manager at Walser Hyundai Brooklyn Park. In an industry defined by grind and tradition, Erikka breaks down how Walzer has successfully implemented a 4-day work week and a non-commissioned sales model. We discuss the transition from traditional F&I "boxes" to a one-point-of-contact system that actually maintains high PVR. This episode is brought to you by: 1. Podium - the AI platform trusted by one in three dealerships. Podium helps dealers consolidate sales, service, messaging, and voice into one connected system that actually runs the work. If your AI isn't driving real outcomes, it's time to take a closer look @ here. 2. Nomad Content Studio - The team behind the dealers you actually see on social media. Nomad works in your dealership to build a brand new pipeline of sales driven by social media content. They're the same team behind names like George Saliba, Benzs & Bowties, and EV Auto—dealers who've built national brands and sold more cars in the process. If you want your dealership to be next, head to @ here and book a call.

Are you a "track everything" person or a "just do the thing" person? In this episode, Helen and Sarah borrow brilliance from the world of gamification — and have a genuinely fun debate about whether it actually works for your career. Helen comes in as a convert (she gamifies her sleep, her deep sleep, her exercise, her steps, and possibly her vegetables). Sarah comes in as a sceptic. What unfolds is an honest, practical exploration of when gamification helps, when it doesn't, and how to design a game that works for you — not one that makes you feel judged by an app.
