Ep. 465

What actually matters in marketing today?

Kipp and Kieran dive into the timeless lessons from classic marketing books and explore how strategies from decades ago are more relevant than ever in today’s landscape. Learn more on why verisimilitude (the appearance of truth) is the cornerstone of copy that sells, the importance of drawing inspiration from outside your industry for true originality, and why building the right audience—and making work that’s remarkable, not mediocre—will always beat chasing the latest trending tactics.
