The Shiny Things, Smart Strategies, and Marketers That Say "Meh" Episode

In the Marketing Studio this week, Jeff Clark interviews Ian Truscott about a chapter he’s written for a book called Collecting Jellybeans, published this week. Ian’s chapter is called “Shiny Things and Smart Strategies: B2B Marketing in the Tech Age”.  They discuss how marketing leaders can make the right technology decisions, asking why, getting off the hamster wheel, implementing a strategy, ART (Awareness, Revenue, Trust), marketing magpies, staying current with technology, and YAGNI (You Ain’t Gonna Need It).    Ian then joins Robert Rose, the Chief Troublemaker at The Content Advisory, in the Rockstar CMO virtual bar and, over a cocktail, shares a quick take on some recent research from The Content Marketing Institute about AI and its impact on marketing jobs.  Enjoy! — The people: Ian Truscott on LinkedIn  Jeff Clark on LinkedIn Robert Rose on LinkedIn and Threads Mentioned in this week’s episode: Collecting Jellybeans - book on Amazon Robert’s firm: The Content Advisory Robert’s podcast – This Old Marketing Robert’s Article - Don’t Let AI Headlines Steer Your Marketing Career the Wrong Way Rockstar CMO: Monday Mojo - our monthly LinkedIn Newsletter The Beat Newsletter that we send every Sunday Rockstar CMO on the web, Twitter, and LinkedIn Previous episodes and all the show notes: Rockstar CMO FM.
