They discuss: • Why the marketing funnel is losing relevance • How AI is influencing consumer research and decision-making • The importance of education-driven content • Building trust through testimonials and referrals • Repurposing content across multiple channels • Using AI to simplify planning, analytics, and content creation • Creating a marketing strategy that fits into a busy schedule If you’re looking for a practical approach to modern marketing that prioritizes relationships, trust, and continuous improvement, this episode is for you.
