How To Turn Your Company Story Into Actionable Marketing Ideas with Pranav Piyush
The Dave Gerhardt Show
How to feed company inputs into AI tools
Pranav demonstrates organizing manifesto, blog posts, JTBD, and psychology hooks into a ChatGPT project to generate targeted ideas.
#285 Creative Strategy | In this episode, Dave is joined by Pranav Piyush, Founder & CEO of Paramark, a measurement platform helping B2B and B2C companies run smarter marketing experiments. Pranav is known for turning strategy documents into repeatable creative processes that generate campaigns, ads, and content tied directly to a company’s story.
Dave and Pranav cover:
- How to translate your company narrative into concrete marketing campaigns and creative hooks across channels
- Why creative output (not measurement) is the biggest bottleneck for most B2B marketing teams today
- The frameworks like category entry points, jobs-to-be-done, and behavioral psychology that help marketers spark fresh, testable campaign ideas month after month
You can expect a practical, example-filled conversation on turning strategy into execution and building a creative engine that never runs dry.
