Episode notes

Jay Parini was a political science major in school. He got into what we would now consider to be traditional marketing because there was no internet. At 23, he quit his job as the spokesperson for an Arizona Department of Juvenile Corrections and went on to become vice president of marketing for an internet company. "I kind of accidentally got involved in digital," says Parini.

From his first job giving prison tours to becoming one of the greatest marketers operating right now, tapping into Jay Baer’s brain is like having your own set of marketing playbooks.

Jay got into the internet before it really existed and has stayed ahead of the curve ever since. Join Daniel and Jay as they get into why speed is becoming a necessity in customer experience and marketing, how you should think about creating content, and the importance of talking to customers.

You’ll also hear why Jay believes marketers should spend far more time focussing on customer retention and not just customer acquisition.
