Positioning: it’s more than just a tagline—it’s your brand’s heartbeat. Without a clear position, even the best product fades into the background. In this episode, we dive into: - What positioning really is and why it’s essential for making your brand stand out in the market. - Common founder mistakes, like trying to be everything to everyone, and why sticking to outdated positioning can hold you back. - Ownership of positioning: Why it’s not just marketing’s job—it’s a whole-team effort led by founders. - How to run a positioning workshop to refine your brand’s focus and ensure alignment across teams.

Data: the love-hate relationship every marketer knows. Ever feel like you’re spending more time justifying your work than actually doing it? In this episode, we break down: - Why data often falls short: LinkedIn and Google Ads might not show up in CRM as last-touch, but they’re still driving traffic. Why the disconnect? - The irony of attribution tools: Leaders want proof but resist investing in tools to get it. Is this skepticism holding marketing back? - Gut vs. data: With so much focus on numbers, are marketers losing trust in their instincts? - Challenges of data-driven campaigns: From measuring brand awareness to GDPR’s impact, we question the real meaning of “data-driven marketer” today.

Hiring your first marketer can feel like a huge deal—especially when marketing covers so much ground. Building an entire team immediately isn’t realistic, and finding one person who can handle everything from growth to content to analytics? That’s tough. Should you go for someone great at growth or someone focused on building your brand? It’s hard to know where to start. In this episode, we’re breaking down why your first marketing hire is so important, why it’s tricky, and where founders often trip up. We’ll talk about: • What makes hiring a startup marketer so challenging and why it’s okay to feel a bit lost. • The skills and mindset that actually matter in an early-stage marketer—and why flexibility is more important than big-company experience. • Options beyond the ‘one-person marketing team’ if you don’t want to put all the pressure on a single hire.
