TMDP 067: Why NO ONE is safe from AI with Christopher S. Penn
Christopher S. Penn bridges the gap between marketing and technology. What he shares on social media and writes about on his blog helps you understand marketing and technology better. He’s a better coder than most marketers, and a better marketer than most coders. By having one foot in both worlds, he finds solutions that work in one place and brings them to the other – including you. He speaks publicly about digital marketing, marketing technology, and machine learning/artificial intelligence. He’s the co-founder of Brain+Trust Insights, a data analytics company focused on helping you make more money with your data, a co-founder of PodCamp with Chris Brogan, and co-host of the Marketing Over Coffee podcast with John Wall. Follow Christopher on Twitter at @cspenn. He can also be found on LinkedIn and the Marketing Over Coffee group.   You’ll Learn: Christopher’s career evolution from a pure technology background to marketing technology or MarTech. Why Christopher believes there’s a lot wrong with current Influencer Marketing. Content Marketing always had a cover charge, but it’s a lot higher if your content sucks. What you create has got to be better than the alternatives. Why Facebook won’t win the fight against #FakeNews Humans must make sure historical bias doesn’t affect machine learning by being model checkers.   3 Key Points:  NO ONE is safe from the coming AI revolution! You must remain flexible and willing to adapt quickly because the industry changes so rapidly. You can’t be left-brained or right-brained anymore. You need both analytical and creative skills.   Get New Show Alters in Facebook Messenger!  Go to http://bit.ly/mdshowbot to sign up.

TMDP 065: Why Digital Discernment is a Life Skill
It’s been one whole year since this podcast launched on 03-JAN-3017. It would be dishonest of me to say I’m not pleasantly shocked we made it this far. A big THANK YOU to all my guests and supporters for helping me make it this far. During a given season I ask all my guests the same questions. And while that might sound boring, when you ask everyone the same questions it allows you to chart the answers and apply statistical analysis methodologies.  One of the more sensitive questions I ask it about #FakeNews and Facebook’s response to this issue on its platform. The answers run the gamut, but on the whole professional marketers are largely unsympathetic. I have a bit more empathy as I argue that #DigitalDiscernment is a life skill with the 2016 U.S. Presidential election being a prime example of why that is.   You’ll Learn:  Why I ask my guests the same set of questions. Why guest 53 Isiah Fowler feels we as individuls were responsible for #FakeNews Why guest 57 Joe Pulizzi feel Facebook is a media company and as such has a higher degree of responsibility for the #FakeNews issue.   3 Key Points:  You can’t, or at least shouldn’t begrudge people for not having a skill that they don’t know is a skill. #DigitalDiscernment is a skill. You’re not dumb; you were duped. #FakeNews is a complex issue and the layperson was taken advantage of.   Resources Mention:  TMDP 053: Why Success Starts with a Vision with Isiah Fowler TMDP 057: Killing Marketing with Joe Pulizzi   Get New Show Alters in Facebook Messenger!

Ed Kless believes that entrepreneurs continue the work of creation. His goal is to grow his intellectual capital. Viewing himself not as an employee, but rather an IC (knowledge) investor.

Brent Leary is Co-founder and Partner of CRM Essentials LLC, a CRM consulting/advisory firm focused on small and mid-size enterprises. He has over 15 years of IT and management consulting experience working on projects for Microsoft, Research In Motion, BellSouth, Compaq and the state of Georgia’s Department of Economic Development.

He can also be found on LinkedIn.   You’ll Learn: The strategies Brent used to grab a foothold early in the CRM space. The one thing Brent wished he had done that he didn’t as he gained prominence in the industry. How Brent coped with the rigors of being a CRM industry thought leader. Why Brent feels AI without conversational interfaces that make is easy for humans to talk and get answers… it’s almost useless. Why big companies like Microsoft and Amazon are partnering to tackle voice search. Why the lines between #InfluencerMarketing and PR have become muddied and why they’re not the same thing.   3 Key Points: Be organized, structured and consistent about the process of creating your content/ thought leadership. While chatbots are dominating the conversation currently, voice search presents the biggest opportunity for the foreseeable future. The human relationship to AI is symbiotic, adversarial.   Get New Show Alters in Facebook Messenger! Go to http://bit.ly/mdshowbot to sign up.

TMDP 061: The Value of The Thirst For Knowledge with Ron Grant
Ron Grant is an accomplished, focused professional with a diverse set of skills and experience in the fields of for-profit and non-profit public relations, brand communication and journalism. He has a formidable track record of strengthening a company’s overall brand messaging through skillful business communication, resourceful use of social media, and focused customer service. His specialties include composing press and news releases, web journalism, blogging, Internet marketing and PR, customer service, branding consulting, promotions, media public affairs, campaign creation and management, and special event coordination. Follow Ron on Twitter at @rontheeron. He can also be found on LinkedIn and writing for ShowsIGoTo.com.   You’ll Learn:  How Ron transitioned from the non-profit sector as a PR professional to the for-profit sector and freelance journalism. The essential questions to ask that will lead to wisdom and ensure your skillset never becomes outdated. Brands seeking to latch onto youth culture need to think long term with their influencer marketing programs, not just as a transaction.   3 Key Points: Career success is a long-term commitment, not unlike marriage. You’ve got to stay committed long past the honeymoon phase. The “soft-skill” of networking can’t be avoided or overstated. Learning that art is an absolute must. Celebrity is a fickle friend. Influencers must be extremely savvy to handle the entire behind the scene functions that come along with online celebrity.   Resources Mention: Ron writes for ShowsIGoTo.com.

TMDP 060: The Gospel of Gary Vaynerchuk Pt. 2
In part one I explored what I call “The Gospel of Gary Vee”, and gave my perspective on the views of both held by Alexis P. Morgan and Douglas Karr. In this episode I’m going to make the point that Gary’s message is often weaponized and used in an offensive manner in the same way the Christian gospel was used as a weapon during the bloody historical period known as The Crusades. I also highlight a viral, $100 To The Winner Of The Race, and provide perspective as to why Gary receives such a strong reaction from individuals like myself and Alexis P. Morgan.   You’ll Learn: How Gary Vaynerchuk’s message of personal accountability gets taken out of context and used as a weapon. Why I had a falling out with a mastermind member who prescribed to Gary’s way of thinking. How white privilege compromises some individuals ability to empathize (not sympathize but empathize) and give good advice. Where the deep seated frustration with Gary’s gospel comes from.   3 Key Points: Gary’s message gets abused by his followers to attack people in the same way the Christian Gospel was used to shed blood during the historical period of The Crusades. Personal accountability is not a license to be racially insensitive. The stakes are high and people have died. “Privilege blinds because is it the nature of privilege to blind.” ~ Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.   Resources Mention: TMDP 055: The Gospel of Gary Vaynerchuk Pt. 1 The Terrorists of Capitalism: A Response To Gary Vaynerchuk Gary’s Response to Alexis P.

TMDP 059: Playing the Branding Game with Rob Crews
Rob Crews is a data-driven marketing executive who builds brands, teams and profitability. In his most recent roles at Ovation and Church's Chicken, Rob is hired by PE firms to serve on senior management team and lead turnaround, rebranding, develop strategies and execute plans to reverse severe sales declines. In both instances he dramatically impacted sales trends and at Ovation Brands, the existing owners were able to monetize and exit the business. Follow Rob on Twitter at @robcrews. He can also be found on LinkedIn.   You’ll Learn:  How the study of economics ultimately influenced Rob to pursue a career in marketing. Why marketers should always be on either extreme and never get caught in the “murky middle”. Why non-marketers struggle to understand the value of a good marketing professional, no matter how much you quantify it. How the overemphasis on the mechanics of marketing can lead to the death of good storytelling. Why #DigitalDiscernment is now a matter of civic duty because democracy demands an educated populous.   3 Key Points: The power of a brand name on your resume is always stronger than the skillsets you possess. There’s always gap between the work you can perform and the work you can sell yourself into; play the brand game. Lifelong learning is table stakes. Marketing has evolved to where no one person can ever know it all.   Resources Mention: Hacking Marketing by Scott Brinker   Get New Show Alters in Facebook Messenger!

TMDP 058: Hacking Social Impact with Joey Womack
Joey Womack is rebel with a cause. Analytics junkie. Optimist. Cynic. Serial envelope pusher. Cult creator. Superhero. Pick one, and that's Joey. His life's purpose is to equalize socio-economic disparities in communities around the world; with a goal to help 1 billion people by the year 2039. Joey was bitten by the entrepreneurial bug in 2002 when he launched digitalguestlist.com as a graduate student at Florida A&M University. The site grew to 80,000 subscribers/users, and advertised thousands of events for Fortune 500 companies, agencies, and high-profile promoters during special events weekends like NBA All-Star Weekend, Super Bowl, and Essence Music Festival. He also used innovative digital marketing strategies to execute events in the Southeast for brands such as Crown Royal, Ciroc, Smirnoff, Coors Light, Warner Bros., and Hennessy.   You’ll Learn: How a summer program at Tuskegee University started Joey down his entrepreneurial path. How Joey has been using technology to solve large-scale social problems. The common pitfalls that trip up most startups. Why Joey is so staunchly against censorship on Facebook despite the scourge of #FakeNews.   3 Key Points:  Focus on core values and surround yourself with like-minded people. Businesses exist to solve problems, but most new entrepreneurs fail to diagnose the proper problem. The online segregation of people into silos for marketing purposes causes division and makes it difficult to punch through people’s echo chamber.   Resources Mention: Amplify4Good.com GoodieNation.org   Get New Show Alters in Facebook Messenger!

TMDP 055: The Gospel of Gary Vaynerchuk Pt. 1
This past September 11th an absolutely blistering Medium article about Gary Vee cropped up on my LinkedIn. In it the author makes an argument that unabashed capitalist such as Gary are tantamount to terrorists. Now if you listen to this show (or read the description) it should come as a surprise to no one I have my professional issues with Gary’s stance on formal education. That being said, even this was a bit much for me. I was so taken aback I asked if this article was fair to Gary in Carlos Gil’s private Social Media Mastermind Facebook Group. The conversation was lively with respectful discourse. My friend, fellow podcaster and ninth guest of this very podcast Douglas Karr chimed in with a perspective I think is representative of conservative Republicans who openly support Donald Trump (which Doug is among). In this episode I explore what I call “The Gospel of Gary Vee”, and give my perspective on the views of both Alexis P. Morgan and Douglas Karr. It’s my sincere hope you gain both insight and clarity from this sensitive, yet much needed conversation.   You’ll Learn: Why Alexis P. Morgan is so damn mad at Gary (or not). Why I feel Alexis’ overall argument is quite valid, despite to scathing tone. The disconnect between viewpoint of conservative Republicans like Douglas Karr and the realities of corporate opportunities based on my life experiences. How name discrimination and other social pressures informed my journey of entrepreneurship. The simple social experiment whites can take to experience the challenges Black face just getting into Corporate America.   3 Key Points: Even if you don’t like the tone or form of expression someone uses, that doesn’t make their argument mute. Opportunity without access is meaningless. White privilege exists and is a distinct business advantage.   Resources Mention: The Terrorists of Capitalism: A Response To Gary Vaynerchuk Gary’s Response to Alexis P.

TMDP 054: The Power of UnBranding with Alison Stratten
Alsion Stratten is a writer and co-creator of content for UnMarketing. She’s also the co-author of UnSelling, The Book of Business Awesome/UnAwesome, QR Codes Kill Kittens and UnMarketing. The new book, UnBranding, is out now! Go get it. Alsion co-hosts the UnPodcast (one of my favs). UnMarketing is currently producing their first documentary about public speaking. Follow Alison on Twitter at @UnAlsion. She can also be found on LinkedIn and www.unmarketing.com.   You’ll Learn: How Alison’s entrepreneurial journey to create something she couldn’t find in the market transformed into UnMarketing. Why Alison feels often times there’s more to learn from train-wrecks when things go badly wrong as opposed to when they went right. Why she feels overly focusing on new technology can take away from creating value for your customers. Technology is just a tool. The relationship between brand and influencer is complex. It takes more than metrics. It takes a hard discussion about values. You can’t put a flashy campaign on something that’s worthless and expect it all to work out.   3 Key Points: Success doesn’t have a specific measure. Don’t be intimidated or overly concerned with ten steps down the road. Enjoy the journey you’re on. Focus on loyalty, not new technology. Quality will always trump convenience. Social Media metrics alone (followers, likes etc.) are easy to manipulate and shouldn’t be the only way to evaluate Influencers.   Get New Show Alters in Facebook Messenger!

TMDP 051: How Category Kings Play Bigger & Eliminate Competition with Christopher Lochhead
Christopher Lochhead is the host of “The Podcast Silicon Valley Needs” — Legends & Losers, and the co-author of Harper Collins’ “instant classic,” Play Bigger: How Pirates, Dreamers and Innovators Create and Dominate Markets. Christopher is a former three-time, Silicon Valley public company CMO and entrepreneur. The Marketing Journal calls him one of “The Best Minds in Marketing,” Fast Company Magazine calls him a “Human Exclamation Point,” The Economist calls him “off -putting to some,” and Newsweek calls him, “The Howard Stern of Entrepreneurialism.” At 18 he got thrown out of school, and with no other options he started a company. After 30 years in business he retired. Christopher can recite much of The Big Lebowski, but can’t remember his wife’s phone number. He’s a proud advisor to non-profit 1Life Fully Lived, a surf and ski bum who gives the occasional ass-kicking talk. He’s living happily ever after with an amazing woman, a great tribe and six little dinosaurs in Santa Cruz California.  Follow Christopher on Twitter at @lochhead. He can also be found on LinkedIn and https://www.legendsandlosers.com/disenchanted.   You’ll Learn: How Christopher overcame humble beginnings and dyslexia to grow a legendary career in Silicon Valley. How he failed in his first business, despite having growing revenue. How he bounced back with his second business, which was acquired by a CRM company, catapulting him to his first stint as CMO of a publicly traded company. Why category kings take 2/3’s of the economics in any category. Why it’s not enough to be good at what you do, you also have to understand the game you’re playing.   3 Key Points: We’re living in an increasingly winner-take all world. Legendary companies prosecute the “magic triangle” of product, company & category. Some of the greatest category kings in history have no clue how they became category kings.   Resources Mention: Superconsumers: A Simple, Speedy, and Sustainable Path to Superior Growth by Eddie Yoon Eddie Yoon on Legends & Losers: Growth Hacking Market Categories Brent Jones on Legends & Losers: From Super Bowl Champion 49er to Venture Capital Legend w/Brent Jones   Get New Show Alters in Facebook Messenger!  Go to http://bit.ly/mdshowbot to sign up.

TMDP 050: Avinash on #AI, Cars & Camels – Oh my!
O-M-G!!! Fifty episodes in the can. I can’t believe it. Thank you so much to all of the guest who have been so gracious with their time and pure awesomeness. I started this podcasting journey on a firm foundation thanks to your collective generosity. For that I am truly thankful. In this episode I muse about some of the great points Avinash Kaushik makes in a recent post about artificial intelligence (AI) and the implication for marketers. The analyst role as we know it may soon be going the way of the dinosaur as we move from solving “known knowns” to solving for “unknown unknowns”. That, and what Avinash calls Complete Day One Knowledge. If you geek out about these sort of things as Avinash and I clearly do, then you won’t want to miss this episode.   You’ll Learn: Why you need to be reading everything Avinash Kaushik writes about AI (like I do). The difference between artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) How Google and Facebook use AI and machine learning TODAY to keep us all inside “content bubbles”. How predictive analytics company Cambridge Analtica used machine learning to help elect Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United State. Why roles such as data analysts and diagnosing patients will be taken over by AI. Why you should be excited and not fearful of this brave new world.   3 Key Points:  The hype is real. AI isn’t coming; it’s here. Machine learning is actively used by Google and Facebook. Repetitive roles such as data analysts will soon be taken over by AI. Just breathe… all will be well. There will still be a place for humans.   Resources Mention: The Artificial Intelligence Opportunity: A Camel to Cars Moment Artificial Intelligence: Implications On Marketing, Analytics, And You SPOS #580 - Avinash Kaushik On Machine Learning And Artificial Intelligence For Marketing   Killer Resources:  Ready to go pro but aren’t sure if College is the right choice for you?

TMDP 048: How #AI Answers Unasked Questions with Duane Forrester
Duane Forrester has 20+ years of direct search and digital marketing experience, including content development, planning ad campaigns, managing ad buys, running e-mail and social media programs and more; as well as extensive content planning and creation experience. He’s authored two business books about digital marketing and conversion optimization, published by McGraw-Hill. During his career, he’s gained experience in domain development, business development, audience development and public relations. Both personally and professionally, he’s worked closely with early stage startups, spent a great deal of time understanding the growing trends of wearables, personas and psychographics, spent time expanding his storytelling skills and, from time to time, advised others on book writing. Follow Duane on Twitter @DuaneForrester. He can also be found on LinkedIn and DuaneForrester.com.   You’ll Learn:  How Duane transitioned from being a black hat SEO to launching Bing Webmaster Tool to his current C-Suite Position at Yext. How murky the SEO industry was in the beginning compared to today’s atmosphere. The piece of advice Duane received the spurred him to become an author. How getting laid off from Microsoft turned out to be a boon for both Duane’s career and personal confidence. The steep learning curve most businesses face regarding digital marketing and how that steered Duane away from speaking about technical SEO so things businesses could more easily digest. Why #FakeNews is an offshoot of Influencer Marketing targeted at the layperson.   3 Key Points: When it comes to tracking and attribution PPC is easy but SEO is hard. Businesses still struggle with understanding the technical requirements of digital marketing. #AI’s best use is answering questions we haven’t thought to ask.   Killer Resources: Ready to go pro but aren’t sure if College is the right choice for you?
