“When the church lives in unity, the world sees the Gospel embodied, and Jesus is glorified.” - @chrisvonne In week 4 of our series on the book of Titus, Ps. Christine brought us a word on Persevering Unity. Referencing Titus 3:9-11 and 14-15, we are shown how to build and guard unity among ourselves: by avoiding distractions, dealing with division and dissension, practicing gentleness with one another, and devoting ourselves to good works. May we continuously persevere towards unity, modeling what a missionally fruitful community can look like.

Marketing is easy to understand as a Marketer, duh. But to other departments (like Finance, Ops, Sales, etc.), it can be hard to get them to understand WHY your company needs Marketing.  Enter: Steve Stano, a Marketing leader in the financial services space. Sure, not everyone is a Marketer, but he's here to break down how you can get everyone on board, in the loop, and up to date about what Marketing can do.  What does data have to do with it? Turns out, data should be the reason you do anything. You need the numbers to back it up. And as Marketers, it's our job to paint the picture so others understand why we do things.  Plus, what's smarter ABM? We talk about how account-based marketing tactics are evolving based on buying signals and behavior. Whether you're a Marketer at a large company or at a startup, this is the episode for you.  Follow Steve: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevestano/ Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: www.workweek.com/brand/the-marketing-millennials Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

Recorded during HITEC, #NoVacancyNews had the privilege of chatting with Michael Schubach Shubach from Rosen Hotels & Resorts to explore how #hoteltechnology, people-first thinking, and bold ideas could reshape the hospitality industry. ✨ Key highlights from our conversation: • Why Rosen is exploring a 4-day workweek with 5-day workweek pay as a real benefit of AI-driven productivity • How sharing automation gains with employees—rather than only owners—can build unmatched loyalty • Tackling class divides in hospitality by returning more time (instead of promising remote work that frontline staff can't access) • Using technology to remove workplace monotony and open paths for growth, not just cost-cutting • What it means to truly care for your people beyond the usual perks and policies It's not just about doing things differently—it's about rethinking why we do them at all.

Influencer marketing isn't just for DTC anymore and Sarah Adam is here to prove it.  As the force behind Wix's growing B2B influencer strategy, Sarah shares how she built a program from scratch to scale, working with hundreds of creators across LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and more. And, there's something that most B2B marketers get wrong about influencer campaigns, why a good brief should actually be brief, and how to think about cost-per-view in an opaque market where creators set the rules.  Plus, we find out how Wix measures success, selects creators, balances creative freedom with brand guardrails, and manages long-term partnerships…all without over-engineering or over-scripting. Whether you're an influencer marketer looking for some new strategies or working on your first creator campaign, this is the episode for you.

Do waitlists even matter to customers anymore? Or are they a waste of time? Daniel says it depends, but basically, lists are important in marketing. Getting email addresses of important people (including people that are interested in your brand) should always be a priority. But, there are some instances where a wait list wouldn't make sense, like a free virtual event. Jay and Daniel talk about building hype…and what to do when that hype gets busted.   Plus, what's the biggest hacks in DTC vs. B2B SaaS? One is using the term “sold out” for social proof and the other is beta access. The OG upsell has always been a long line. How do you do that with a virtual service or product? This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about waiting…and waiting…and more waiting.

“God's grace doesn't just save us—it trains, humbles, renews, and forms us into a people who reflect the goodness of God in every season of life.” - @janicechinchern In week 3 of our sermon series, Ready For Every Good Work, Janice shared on Grace-Filled Works, anchored on Titus 2:11–14. She reminded us that grace is not passive—it is active and transformative in training us - teaching us to reject what is ungodly, and wait in hope for Christ's return. Grace forms us not through striving, but through surrender. As we navigate life between the two appearings of Christ—His first coming and His return—may we remain steadfast, open-handed, and dependent. As we embark on a new week, may we continue to seek the Lord and pray into ways that we can - in our individual and life as a church community - be trained, humbled and renewed by God's grace, that we may be ready for every good work.

Last year, I sat down with Marco Steinsieck, the Head of Retail Media at Sephora, ⁠⁠to break down everything retail media.

It's time to talk about customer and market segmentation - no math needed. For now, at least. What exactly is the MAP framework? Tamara breaks it down. It stands for measure volume, analyze performance, and prioritize potential, so you can determine who your highest-potential customers are. It helps you focus your marketing tactics and shape your roadmaps.  But what does measuring volume even mean? Daniel reveals that a lot of Marketers have an idea of what their ideal customer is, but the customers who are sharing the best signals may be completely different.  Plus, Tamara gives a real-life example about an AI-powered project and how she and her team determined whether their customers were valuable in the long run.  If you're a Marketer who wants to know more about MAP and segmentation, this is the episode for you…And it's only 13 minutes long. ⌛ Follow Tamara: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamaragrominsky/ Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: www.workweek.com/brand/the-marketing-millennials Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

Do testimonials and reviews actually sway people's opinions of your product?  According to Daniel, you NEED social proof on your website, and Jay agrees. But you don't want anything generic because it'll sound weird and forced. Instead, you'll want testimonials that are specific. Think: “This product cut our costs down by 150%,” or something similar. You want to show impact.  Also, what do your logos and landing pages look like? Make sure it matches your client. Daniel mentions thinking about targeting in tiers. You'll also want to consider what your customers care about, and not just the fluff.  Plus, should you pretend an unfunny text is funny? Jay tests it on Daniel.  This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about social proof and reviews.

What does it take to create $100 million in incremental pipeline in a single year? Kyle Coleman, Global VP of Marketing at ClickUp, unpacks his mission to help the company reach $1B in ARR and why “normal f***ing sucks” might be the best company value he's ever worked under.

Price is a form of psychology all on its own…but how do you determine how much your product should cost? You know how some brands will base product price off of what their competitors are doing? Or how some just throw a price out there? Tamara has a hot take: neither of these are good strategies. So, Daniel brings up some points: validation and pressure testing.  Plus, Tamara shares the  Van Westendorp Pricing Test, a framework she insists is perfect for Marketers. Basically, it takes customer acceptance and perception into account. How much is their willingness to pay when researching your product? What type of value does your product offer them?  ActiveCampaign⁠ turns your ambition into impact by orchestrating your marketing through Active Intelligence and AI agents - powering your imagination with billions of data points, activating fully-realized campaigns and strategies from your ideas, and validating what works - so you can drive real results.

Thanks solely to Dolly Parton, the 9-to-5 work week receives much more goodwill than it deserves. And sure, it serves all sorts of purported purposes – it maximises productivity, boosts the economy, et cetera, et cetera.But… is that REALLY still the case? After all, new technologies and increases in productivity have radically altered the labour market. Is the 9-to-5 work week still as vital as when Dolly released her seminal track in 1980?

Are we working too much? “Time is a vital resource for us to connect with each other, to connect with the earth and …to come together in solidarity, to try and fix what's wrong.” We have accepted the 5 day work week as the status quo—caught in a cycle of working more so we can spend more, just to keep up with the Jones'. But what if there's a better way to live: For our own happiness, the economy, and our planet?  Economist and Sociologist Juliet Schor, has spent decades researching the way we work, and her new book - The Four Day Week - invites all of us to imagine a future where work is restructured to serve human needs, not the other way around. Show Notes Resources: “Four Days A Week” by Juliet Schor “The Overworked American” by Juliet Schor Similar Episodes: Oliver Burkeman Ben Cohen Jay Jakub Transcript Want more NSE?

It's no secret that AI is super helpful. But how do Daniel and Jay use it? It's more than just about asking ChatGPT questions or telling it to summarize blocks of text. In Daniel's case, he uses it to repurpose podcast transcripts into multiple forms of content. (Work smarter, not harder, besties.) It's a great way to experiment with different formats and tones depending on who your audience is.  Jay mentions you can even use it to optimize your website. What's the difference between engine optimization and SEO? How do you get your website to pop up the way you want it to? He breaks it down…and even says it's the #1 thing to focus on.  Plus, what do they think of Love Island's format? Like AI, it can be A LOT.  This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about using AI to your advantage.

What are the key qualities of a successful community, and how can businesses effectively build and nurture them?  In this episode, Daniel interviews David Spinks, a community-building expert, to explore the world of community management. They discuss the importance of organic growth, the qualities to look for in a community manager, and the competitive advantage a strong community can provide for a brand.  How can in-person experiences complement online interactions? David shares his thoughts on the significance of online and offline engagement and explains the different types of communities that are vital to your brand game plan.  And later, he and Daniel explore how focusing on joy and genuine connection when building a community is more valuable than any metric measurement.     Follow David: Website: ⁠https://davidspinks.com⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidspinks/   Follow Daniel: YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured⁠ Twitter: ⁠https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing⁠   Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter:  ⁠www.workweek.com/brand/the-marketing-millennials⁠   Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

It makes sense that if you want to cut down on the amount of spam email you get, just unsubscribe from those emails. WAIT! That could make things worse. There is a better way to handle spam emails, and I begin this episode by explaining how. https://www.yahoo.com/news/warning-hitting-unsubscribe-unwanted-emails-115900557.html Predicting the future is a losing game most of the time. Still, a lot of influential people spend a lot of time and money trying to do it. People forecast where the stock market is going, they predict trends in fashion, technology and everything else. It makes you wonder if all that effort and money trying to predict the future actually helps to make it happen. So why is the future so unpredictable? What forces do shape the future? Joining me to discuss this is Glenn Adamson, former director of the Museum of Arts and Design, New York. He has held appointments as Senior Scholar at the Yale Center for British Art and he is the author of the book, A Century of Tomorrows: How Imagining the Future Shapes the Present (https://amzn.to/442HOfb). People have been floating the idea of a 4-day workweek for over 60 years. Yet it is still not the norm. Why hasn't it caught on? Is it a good idea? Will it ever be a real thing? Here with some interesting insight into the 4-day workweek is Juliet Schor. She is an economist, and professor of sociology at Boston College. Her work has been featured in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, People and 60 Minutes. She is also the author of a book called Four Days a Week: The Life-Changing Solution for Reducing Employee Stress, Improving Well-Being, and Working Smarter (https://amzn.to/4jQSvr0). There are a lot of weight loss programs and strategies available for people. But what if there was one simple, common sense, easy to do tactic that is proven to help people lose weight effectively? There is. It so simple. And I will tell you exactly how to do it. https://www.ornish.com/zine/proven-benefits-keeping-food-journal/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

They say your reputation precedes you, but what if the one that doesn't feel right? Or worse, what if it's misaligned and you're starting at a deficit? For many in HR, this feeling is a familiar one, which is why it's time to talk reputation management. In this exciting season finale, join guest host Kim Rohrer, co-host of HR Confessions, as she sits down with her friend and Workweek's Chief People Officer, Hebba Youssef. As a podcaster and the force behind a wildly successful online HR community, Hebba knows firsthand what it means to manage your reputation, both personally and publicly. Leaving the sugarcoating at home, Kim and Hebba get real about what it means to shape your reputation with employees and leadership, noting how they differ and the nuances that exist in these relationships. Hebba, remarks on the role of persuasion, a high emotional intelligence, and why making everyone happy is something you cannot and should not do. Plus, they dive into why CHROs might just be the best candidates for future CEOs. A candid, candor-filled conversation, this episode wraps up the season with a fresh take on how HR is evolving and how to make sure your reputation evolves with it.For more people-focused conversations like this one, join Oyster's People Builders community HERE.

Fill in the blank: the best marketers aren't just creative, they're ________. If you said “behavioral scientists,” you'd be correct. Daniel and Tamara talk about the three psychology-based plays you can implement today. It all depends on where your words are put, your social proof, and loss aversion.  Daniel mentions why FOMO is millennials'  biggest fear…and how you can play the FOMO card to drive urgency. Plus, Tamara gives an example of why Mailchimp is the best example of the Foot-in-the-Door technique.  If you're looking to get more actionable tips you can start incorporating into your efforts TODAY, this is the episode for YOU…and it's short and sweet. ⌛ Sked Social is the no-BS social media management platform built for teams who want to move fast, collaborate easily, and actually prove impact.

Attribution is broken, and Jay and Daniel are here to call it out. This episode dives into why marketers rely too much on dashboards, how long buying cycles mess with data, and why the last-click model is misleading at best. Daniel shares how adding a simple “Where did you hear about us?” question changed everything. Jay explains why the best companies sit in on sales calls and focus on actual revenue, not spreadsheet battles. And, they both agree: marketing attribution isn't a math problem. It's an alignment problem. This Bathroom Break is a spicy take on a not-so-sexy topic.

That “middle” option on a pricing page? It's not there by accident. It's there to mess with your brain…in the best way possible. This episode's guest, Tamara Grominsky, is back to break down one of the sneakiest (and most effective) psychological tools in marketing: price anchoring. From B2B SaaS to steakhouse menus, she shows how marketers use decoy pricing to nudge people toward the offer they actually want you to buy. And, we dig into the difference between setting a price and positioning it, because pricing is more than just a revenue lever. It's a storytelling tool. Plus, we explore ways you can apply this today by adding decoy tiers, using visual hierarchy, and writing copy that reframes value without touching the numbers. If you're a marketer who wants to sell more without changing your product, just how it's perceived, this one's a masterclass. ActiveCampaign turns your ambition into impact by orchestrating your marketing through Active Intelligence and AI agents - powering your imagination with billions of data points, activating fully-realized campaigns and strategies from your ideas, and validating what works - so you can drive real results.

Ebooks, webinars, white papers…B2B needs more exciting names to use for content. It's time to test the waters with it. Here's what Daniel and Jay suggest.  Daniel points out that even using “festival” for his annual big virtual event is more enticing than just a webinar and it seems to work much better. Jay suggests instead of an eBook, try playbook or guide—he even mentions that from his experience, using “guide” increased his downloads by 30%.  And, Daniel shares a hack about writing newsletter headlines. Should you start with headlines before you write the actual content, or vice versa? This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about using less boring terms and getting those downloads and signups UP.

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 program. At Patagonia, their mission is centered on the environment, and their clientele is adventurous. So, 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 really 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 KPIs? 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.   Let's face it—consumers don't trust ads, but they do trust their favorite creator, that go-to review site, or a friend's recommendation.

What do you get when you mix scheduling, stories, auto posting, and Instagram? You get Sked Social. But things haven't always been this way… This episode's guest, Hugh Stephens, created Sked Social as an all-in-one tool for Instagram back in 2013. Remember your feedback then? It has evolved from hipster filters and casual posts to algorithm-driven feeds and AI-generated content. Now, it's a battle for creativity and a battle against the algorithm AND sameness. How should you stand out? When's the best time to post? Who even dictates this?  And, what does brand voice have to do with community? Community happens with connection, and connection happens when brands have authentic interactions. Real, meaningful engagement doesn't happen on the feed—it happens in the DMs and stories.  Plus, Hugh has his spiciest take: not everyone should be in marketing. If you're a marketer who wants to learn more about connecting with your audience beyond Instagram's main feed, this is the episode for you.  Sked Social is the no-BS social media management platform built for teams who want to move fast, collaborate easily, and actually prove impact. No per-seat shakedowns, no absurd price hikes, no surprise add-ons—just powerful tools that save time and cut through the chaos.

Daniel and Jay have a tactic for YOU to use on social…and it's foolproof.  Doesn't matter if you're a DTC brand or a podcaster looking for your next guest. First, the setup is everything and the headline's the most important. Next, mention you're looking for XYZ and encourage your audience to tag friends who meet the description. Then, watch that engagement roll in—complete with a list of people who are interested in your work, your brand, etc.  Plus, what does Daniel have against lazy rivers?  This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about getting your audience involved in your growth and expanding your network in the process.

Think about everything that's changed in social since 2015. If you make a list, influencer marketing would be pretty high on it.  This episode's guest, Robyn Nissim, has seen the influencer marketing space grow since then. From building Ulta's first influencer program to working as the Head of Social Media at brands like Alo and Anastasia Beverly Hills, it's all about connection. Who is your influencer connecting with? Where would you like to drive them to? Who is the IT girl of the moment, and could we possibly work together? It's all about working with what you have, your budget, and optimizing from there.  And, a large part of influencer marketing is alignment. It's more than just showing a fitness influencer wearing a matching set: you have to look at the content they've already posted and if it aligns with your mission. If not, you could set yourself up for disaster.  Plus, what's the best way to build an influencer campaign? There is no right way, according to Robyn. What role does paid media have? Turns out, it can be a gamble. While it's a pay-to-play entity, it can't guarantee lifetime value or even purchases from your ICP.  If you're a marketer who wants to learn more about the inner workings of influencer marketing, this is the episode for you.  Let's face it—consumers don't trust ads, but they do trust their favorite creator, that go-to review site, or a friend's recommendation.

Customer interviews are a goldmine for information and strategy ideas. But how do you turn their words into action?  Daniel and Tamara talk about how customer feedback is great, but turning their insights into actual change is even better. First, you have to make sure you're asking the right questions to get the information you need. Next, there's two types of interviews: generative and concept-testing. Which one should you choose based on your goals?  Tamara shares why “right place at the right time” is important when it comes to buying, churning, or even adopting a feature. You wanna strike when you're at the top of their mind because three months down the line? It's just too late.   If you're looking to get more out of customer feedback and ask questions that yield success, this is the episode for YOU…and it's short and sweet. ⌛ Sked Social is the no-BS social media management platform built for teams who want to move fast, collaborate easily, and actually prove impact.

As summer approaches, things shift—and if you're a working mom, you're probably already feeling it. ☀️ In this episode of The Dream It, Do It Podcast, I'm walking you through how I'm prepping for a successful summer—both at home and in business. From adjusting routines to navigating a four-day workweek, I'm sharing the small but mighty changes that help me feel less scattered and more steady as the season kicks in. Here's what we talk about:

Have you ever felt like you don't have enough time to blog consistently? What if I told you that you could successfully run your blog in just five hours a week? https://creativesonfirepodcast.com/episode196 In this week's episode of Creatives on Fire, we're diving into how to work smarter—not harder—with a blogger's take on the five hour work week. Inspired by Tim Ferriss's The 4-Hour Workweek, this strategy is all about simplifying your workflow, focusing on what moves the needle, and creating consistent momentum. Let's break down how you can make blogging fit into your schedule—one hour a day. Can Blogging in Five Hours a Week Actually Work? Yes, my friend, it absolutely can. The key to making this work is consistency. You don't need endless hours or a huge audience to start building a profitable blog—you need a plan, a routine, and the discipline to stick to it. Step One: Make a Plan The first step is to map out what each hour of your blogging week will look like. Break the work into five main buckets and assign one task to each weekday. Monday: Draft Your Post Spend your hour outlining and drafting your blog post inside WordPress. This includes doing keyword research and writing your SEO title and headers. Use AI to speed things up if you need to. Tuesday: Create the Content Use this hour to bring your content to life. Take step-by-step photos, shoot a video, bake the recipe, or go live with a related tutorial. This is your creation day. Wednesday: Assemble and Schedule the Post Now that you've drafted and created, pull everything together. Upload your images, polish your post, and schedule it to publish next week—so you're always ahead. Thursday: Schedule the Promotions Use this hour to create your Pinterest pins, schedule your social media posts, and write the email that will promote your post. Everything should be prepped for the following week. Friday: Record and Schedule Video Content Optional—but powerful. Use this time to record and schedule your reels, short-form videos, or YouTube content related to your blog post. Step Two: Make It Predictable The real secret? Make your blogging time non-negotiable. Pick a time each day that works best for your life (early mornings are gold!) and show up like it's an appointment you can't miss. Tips for staying consistent: Block your hour on your calendar Use a “Blogging” tab group to reduce distractions Work ahead, not behind Create muscle memory—same routine, same time every day Step Three: Make It a Priority You already know blogging can generate consistent income—ads, affiliate commissions, product sales, and email growth all stem from regular publishing. So ask yourself: If I knew this would work, would I make it a priority? Once you've made the decision to treat your blog like a business, it becomes easier to commit to the five hour framework. Over time, your one hour a day builds lasting success, and that boring, consistent effort becomes your biggest advantage. What If You Want to Blog More Than Once a Week? If you're posting multiple times a week, just double the time. Two blog posts = two hours a day. But here's the beauty of batching—your efficiency will skyrocket. Once you get in the flow, you'll find you can prep several posts at once in even less time. As with anything in business: what's hard at first becomes easier with repetition. Final Thoughts: Boring Work Becomes Brilliant Success Building a successful blog isn't about flashy hacks—it's about consistent action done well over time. With the Five Hour Work Week, you can simplify your process, eliminate decision fatigue, and create sustainable income without burnout. Just remember: Make the plan Make it predictable Make it a priority Because boring work done consistently leads to extraordinary results. Let me know—are you in for the five hour work week? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments over on the blog. Until next time, stay creative.
