In this episode, you’ll learn:
Momentum is a marketer’s best asset, but it’s not always easy to create. While every brand hopes for a viral moment, sustained momentum makes success feel inevitable.
Experimentation is essential, yet many brands hesitate when budgets are tight. Marketers need space to test bold ideas—because the biggest wins often come from unexpected places.
Audio marketing remains an untapped advantage. While digital ads fight for attention, podcasts build trust through host endorsements. Influence isn’t just about reach—it’s about impact and resonance.
