Bonus Episode Here!
And... This one hurts for one of our hosts. Having to produce episodes where we talked so much about football... when your team has lost (with seconds left in overtime)... is a little painful!
It's a bonus episode where Jen and Megan not only talk about the BIG game (revisit of this 4 years ago), but we also compared the social media accounts of the 49ers and the Chiefs! Taylor's boyfriend has influenced those Chiefs numbers a smidge...
Both teams have great social media presence! We will both fight another day.
Rita Oak is the artist we mentioned who posts her drawings - check out her Twitter.

Short-form video is all the rage! On this episode we talk with a Meta Ads expert who is using short videos to teach.
The enemy of done is perfection and that is one of our biggest takeaways from our chat with John Loomer -- just start.
Learn about...
- The importance of getting started and not overthinking: John emphasizes the key to creating effective short-form video content is to simply get started without worrying too much about perfection. The goal is to learn and improve with each video, so it's essential to not overthink the process and just start creating.
- Consistency and long-term trust are crucial: Consistency is super important with short-form video content. Focus on your brand's messaging and create content your ideal audience will find interesting. Building long-term trust with your audience should be more important than chasing short-term gains.
- Find the right tools and workflow for you: John uses the editing software ScreenFlow for creating short-form videos. But, every marketer has their own preferred tools, so it's important to use what you're comfortable with to help you achieve your goals. Finding a workflow that works for you and your brand is key.

Events are a key element of the marketing mix. Our guest on this episode has unique insights into ALL of the elements of marketing strategy and spend, and on this one we touch on a lot... Mostly addressing how events play a part in different ways to driving sales and visibility.
Learn about...- How in-person events provide valuable opportunities to connect with professionals, expand networks, and learn from others in the industry. They are crucial for building relationships and driving sales.- That having a well-documented tracking and reporting system is important for attributing success to events. Understanding the impact events have on the customer journey, even if the sales correlation is not immediate, is key. Collaboration between marketing and sales is crucial for effective follow-up and nurturing of leads generated at events.- Events should be viewed as opportunities to create personalized experiences and make meaningful connections with potential customers. It's essential to focus on providing value and building brand loyalty rather than just selling. Adaptability is also crucial, as not every event or strategy will lead to immediate success; finding the right timing and approach that aligns with the target audience is super important.

Do you know what "zero click content" is? Our guest on this show coined the phrase and her approach to content development is super interesting. You might be reconsidering your social media strategy after hearing her on this one!
"But if we're posting valuable content -- that people can consume just bite-sized pieces of -- or get that discrete value from just by scrolling through, we're going to increase our impressions. And then over time, ultimately, drive more traffic to our site or increase conversions from those impressions."
The creator economy continues to evolve and Amanda Natividad will help us to be refreshing! Join us to explore a modern way to approach content marketing.

There is nuance in how we approach opposing views online. How we approach it with our marketing is even more nuanced.
"I think the biggest thing right now is we're in a really crazy space that we've never been in before, with everyone having access to so much information, so much misinformation, so much disinformation, that it is really, really hard for marketers to accurately and effectively not just target the group they want to speak to, but reach and break through."
We get pretty deep about how marketers should look at inclusive strategy & language, authenticity, and awareness.

We cover SO much ground in a short show!
Determining a title for an episode where we talk about growth, demand, account-based, and field marketing was a challenge, but saying "ever-changing" really does put it succinctly.
Our guest on this one is in the thick of it all as head of marketing in her current role. How we drive growth (sales) and create demand for the things our companies are selling is ever-changing and we talk through it all.
