The 5 Things from Jeff’s Debut and a Rose Colored Strategy over a Cocktail Episode

This week, our host, Ian Truscott, revisits the first time Jeff Clark, our resident strategy advisor and former Forrester Research Director, appeared on the show in episode 40, back in December 2020. They run through the five points Jeff made in that discussion, and asks him if things have changed in the intervening years. 

Plus, Ian asks if Jeff still wants to chuck constant re-branding into the Swimming Pool, our portal to hell for all the snake oil, bullshit and overhyped trends that plague this craft we love.    

Then Ian joins Robert Rose, Fractional Marketing Leader and Chief Troublemaker at The Content Advisory, in the Rockstar CMO virtual bar. Ever considered a cocktail with Borboun and Red Wine? Well, let Robert educate you before he shares his weekly thoughts on marketing strategy. 

Enjoy!
