Dang, @aleejudge.bsky.social knows how to get the most from his guests.

I ranted. I raved. I yelled like a madman, arguing passionately for what I'm convinced is the only way forward in marketing.

Plus, some nice production values & editing to make me look smarter than I am 😎

One of the reasons I wrote More Than Words: How to Think About Writing in the Age of AI was to help people remember that writing is human, syntax generation is not the same thing as writing, and that thoughtlessly outsourcing our thought to LLMs is bad. www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/john-...

I spent several hours on it yesterday while crafting sales page copy and I absolutely LOVED my experience. The UI is sleek and beautiful. The feedback is useful while also bringing a smile to my face with the engaging and creative responses. I've already started telling my clients about it. 🤘🫶

B2B marketers — how y'all doing content promotion?

For SparkToro:
- LinkedIn is # 1
- Threads+BlueSky tie for # 2
- Twitter was 1; fell to 3
- We do a little IG + FB
- We're probably missing out by not doing more with YouTube

Happy Valentine's Day ❤️

A love letter to marketing jargon, dripping in buzzwords. The ick app interface highlights phrases like ‘best in class,’ ‘next-gen,’ and ‘cutting-edge’—the usual suspects of overblown copy. Set against a bold pink background, it’s a valentine to the kind of language that promises everything and says nothing.

We agree, obviously — we made a whole app to help with that 🫡

Accessibility Awareness @a11yawareness.bsky.social · Feb 14

Avoid jargon and buzzwords whenever possible. When you have to use terms that might not be commonly known or used among your audience, explain what these terms mean. If you can't avoid a lot of specific terms, include a glossary of terms that users can refer to when needed.

This was a great one from April:

“Not everything customers care about is “value.” Sometimes, customers want or need capabilities for reasons other than business value.”

👏

April Dunford @aprildunford.bsky.social · Feb 6

This week in the newsletter I'm talking about the difference between selling value and handling objections. It's not always as obvious as you might think.

Aside - the positioning newsletter has hit 30K subscribers - can you believe that!?

Value vs. Objection Handling

In my positioning work, it is not unusual for teams to confuse value for customers with what I would call “objection handling.”

Great idea here from Val.

We recommend this to our clients, and we get them to re-record their demo just for us (the pressure!)

Val Sopi 👋 @valsopi.com · Feb 13

One of the best ways to debug something new you're building is to record a demo and go over everything.

I was prepping a demo for one of my waiting clients and found at least 10 things that needed a retouch.

Most marketing advice assumes you already know your audience. But what if you don’t?

What an excellent article 👇

Amanda Natividad @amandanat.bsky.social · Feb 4

There's something only great marketers do. But there's no agreed-upon standard for doing it.

It's audience research.

And very likely, they're doing this without really knowing what it is. Studying and getting to know their audience is just part of their DNA.

In this long overdue guide…
