SPECIAL SERIES: The Power of Building in Public | Bathroom Break #53 🚽
What’s the newest format that’s going viral? It’s building, behind-the-scenes, and sharing what goes into making something. Think about some things brands are posting about their products: the wins, the fails, how it all came together. Audiences eat this up. Building in public like this generates engagement. Jay gives an example of how huge companies like Hubspot are doing it. Daniel mentions people flock to content like this because it makes them feel like an insider, and as we all know, content succeeds when people feel emotionally connected to it. And, what does a brand’s founder have to do with all of this? They’re a piece of the puzzle. This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about building hype and going behind the scenes. 🚽 Follow Jay: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/schwedelson/ Podcast: Do This, Not That 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.

Go-to-Market Plays #4: How to Execute a Comeback Campaign
Your best opportunities have already used your product before. How can you get them back before they disappear forever? Enter: the Comeback Campaign. Tamara says the point of the campaign is to remind people why they signed up in the first place and what they’re missing out on. Creating this type of FOMO can urge people to check you out again. From strategically placed ads to email efforts, there are a ton of ways to get creative. Plus, Daniel gives a real-life example with the Uber app…one that has probably gotten you to come back before (and you didn’t even know it!). If you’re looking to avoid “the one that got away” and keep them coming back, this is the episode for YOU…and it’s short and sweet. ⌛ 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.

SPECIAL SERIES: This Is How You Should Audit | Bathroom Break #52 🚽
We’re heading into a bumpy economy. So, it’s time to audit what we’re doing in marketing. How do we do that? Auditing is all about alignment. Are your brand’s efforts in line with what’s going on in the world? Are you wasting any money, time, resources, etc.? One of the first things to change is KPIs and really figure out what matters. Plus, it’s time to audit tools and software you’re using. Jay gives an example from his company: they’re reprocessing files and saving money from going through everything. When things are uncertain, it’s time to focus on what you can control. And, Daniel says marketing is still important, even if it’s often the first budget to get cut during an economic downturn. People may not want to spend their hard-earned money on trying a new product. Because of this, doubling down on retention strategies is going to be the key to success.

Go-to-Market Plays #3: How to Make Your Marketing Stick
There are three things guaranteed in life: death, taxes, and people forgetting about your campaign. How can you make your marketing and comms efforts memorable? Tamara mentions that most marketing fails to stick when marketers focus too much on the product features and not the emotional connection between the brand and the customer. People remember what problem the product can solve more than its fancy features or capabilities. Daniel also brings up the Made to Make It Stick framework: the most successful marketing gets remembered, shared, and repeated. How can something so silly, like the Duolingo Owl, get people on board?

SPECIAL SERIES: The 7 Deadly Sins of Marketing | Bathroom Break #51 🚽
What should you NOT do in marketing? There’s lots, but Daniel and Jay are breaking it down in seven parts. First, when you market to everybody, you’re actually marketing to nobody. You’re gonna be more successful with a specific customer set in mind. Plus, narrowing it down makes positioning and messaging way easier. Also, are “best practices” actually outdated? Jay thinks so. Every time you hear about a best practice, it’s best to test it out for yourself. And, Daniel reminds us that skipping strategy and going straight to tactics is a NO-no. Who are you running ads to? What’s the offer? When, why, what, and how? These are questions that you need to start off with, not answer along the way. This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about avoiding what you can and doing better. 🚽 Follow Jay: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/schwedelson/ Podcast: Do This, Not That 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.

Have you noticed more and more people are watching women’s sports? This episode’s guest, Andrew LeRay of the National Women’s Soccer League, is on a mission to grow the league through brand, product, and more. How do you sell tickets and merchandise to people who may not know the league exists? Andrew suggests that education and brand awareness are the two concepts driving people to think about the NWSL. What are some ways Andrew has changed targeting strategies for the brand? Since coming into the role about two years ago, Andrew talks about how strategies back then were about retention and how the focus is now on creating messaging to welcome new viewers. Plus, the NWSL has ties with US Soccer and other national teams. How do you leverage the popularity of more famous players in the league when they’re away from their national teams?

Instead, companies are realizing that being upfront and transparent about cost are doing much better than those who don’t—and it’s all a part of a customer-featured self service model. Plus, how should companies measure and track success? The reality is that we can’t actually measure as accurately as we’d like to, BUT there’s so many ways to reframe success. If you’re a marketer who wants to level up your brand’s AI game and keep up with what’s happening with the latest in UX/CX, this is the episode for you.

288 - Underrated Marketing Psychology Bias (That Most Marketers Aren’t Using) with Dr. G
Did you know YOU are an influencer? Everyone technically is. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. G, current professor at Vanderbilt and consumer behavior expert to talk about bias, decision making, and ethics in marketing. We’re all human and we have biases, but how can we use it positively when we market products? Plus, you can actually gain market share by telling consumers they’re missing out on an attribute your product has. (Hint: think 5 Hour Energy…with no crash later.) This FOMO consumers feel? It could be your ticket to success. And, we continue the on-going conversation about influencer marketing: turns out, you actually don’t need millions of followers to influence others—and someone else doesn’t need millions of followers to influence YOU. Ever recommended makeup to a friend or bought a shirt because you saw a Facebook friend wear it? You’re an influencer and you’ve been influenced. If you’re into finding out the “why” behind purchasing and the bottom of the marketing funnel, this episode is for you.

Why Marketing Works: How to sell to the wealthy
If you thought Oppenheimer was hard to get tickets to then you clearly haven’t tried to set your hands on tickets “100 Years.” And even if you do score tix to the elusive Robert Rodriguez/John Malkovich flick, chances 99.9% certain that you’ll be dead before the film premieres. That’s right. DEAD. Is the movie trying to kill you in some sick real-life “Saw” game? Well, good/news bad news, horror movie fans. The reason you won’t see the movie isn’t quite *that* exciting (sorry, but no long-haired girls climbing out of from well and into your TV screen are coming to get you after 10 days). You won’t see the coveted movie because its premiere date isn’t until 2115. Yep— 100 years from when it was first filmed. Why? But also…. WHY? Who’s behind this iconic campaign and more importantly, WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN???

Wheaties ask to eat him for breakfast. Bears are warned about encountering him in the wild. Doctors rejected his organs from donation because they were too much for the average man to handle.

Lance Armstrong might be the first name you think of when you hear the words, “Tour de France,” and sure, he’s certainly a marketing genius in his own right, but he isn’t anywhere near the same level as the OG marketer who turned the French cycling event into the marketing sensation it became.

Why Marketing Works: A True American Origin Story
Ah, America. Some might say there’s nothing more patriotic than flags, fireworks, and country music, but for Nathan’s Famous Hot Dogs, nothing spells “American Patriot” harder than the man who can shove the most weiners into his mouth.

From marketing stunt to national icon, Nathan’s proves that sometimes, a little myth-making can go a long way in building brand hype.

By utilizing psychological principles, you can influence consumer decision-making and improve the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns. Here are some ways you can use psychology in your marketing efforts: Use Social Proof Social proof is the psychological phenomenon where people follow the actions of others in order to conform to social norms. By using social proof in your marketing, you can show potential customers that other people have used and enjoyed your product or service. This can be achieved by displaying customer testimonials, ratings, and reviews. Appeal to Emotions People often make purchasing decisions based on emotions rather than logic. By appealing to your target audience’s emotions, you can create a strong connection between them and your brand. This can be achieved by using storytelling, evocative imagery, and language that taps into the emotions of your audience. Create Scarcity The fear of missing out (FOMO) is a powerful psychological motivator. By creating scarcity, you can tap into this fear and encourage potential customers to make a purchase. This can be achieved by using limited time offers, limited edition products, and countdown timers on your website.

As a marketing professional, understanding behavioral science can help you better understand your target audience and create more effective marketing campaigns. Here are some tips on how to use behavioral science in marketing: Use social proof: Social proof is a powerful psychological concept that refers to the tendency of individuals to follow the actions of others in similar situations. Use social proof in your marketing campaigns by showcasing positive reviews, ratings, and testimonials from satisfied customers. This can help increase trust in your brand and encourage others to follow suit. Leverage the scarcity principle: The scarcity principle is another psychological concept that refers to the tendency of individuals to desire things that are perceived as rare or in short supply. Use the scarcity principle in your marketing campaigns by creating limited-time offers or showcasing limited availability of products or services. This can create a sense of urgency and increase the perceived value of your offerings. Utilize the anchoring effect: The anchoring effect is the tendency of individuals to rely too heavily on the first piece of information presented to them when making decisions. Use the anchoring effect in your marketing campaigns by strategically pricing your products or services. For example, by showcasing a high-priced item next to a lower-priced item, the lower-priced item may seem like a better deal in comparison. Appeal to emotions
