from Do This, NOT That: Marketing Tips with Jay Schwedelson

New year, same avalanche of bad marketing advice, and Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray are calling it out in the most cathartic way possible. From the myth that you need to be everywhere on social to the dangerous habit of letting "I don't like it" kill good ideas, they walk through the worst guidance floating around your feed right now and what to do instead. If you have content guilt, AI anxiety, or a content calendar you secretly hate, this Bathroom Break will make you feel seen and send you back to work with a much saner playbook.ㅤFollow Daniel on LinkedIn and check out The Marketing Millennials podcast for sharp, no-fluff marketing insights.
