  • If Clicks Closed Deals, We’d All be Rich
    Sep 12 2025

    The buyer’s journey has changed and so should your marketing. In this episode, Jeff Bradburry and Carlos Corredor talk through how the shift to digital has changed what marketing needs to focus on. It’s no longer about pushing content or chasing clicks, but about creating qualified opportunities that lead to real pipeline. They challenge the idea of being “data-driven” when the data is just clicks, and explain why cold email or paid search still have value—it all depends on where the buyer is in their process. If your marketing isn’t tied to sales, it’s not doing its job.

  • Person-to-person beats Company-to-persona
    Aug 29 2025

    There’s something about B2B that makes marketers want to sound like robots. Brian Krenzer’s not here for it.

    In this episode, he and Carlos break down what B2B marketers can steal from consumer brands—and what they still get wrong. From defining your ICP to fixing the planning phase, Brian’s take is practical, punchy, and grounded in math. Not vibes. They talk about how your buyer is a person (not a persona), how to explain your product in three sentences (or less), why metrics without context are a trap, and how first-party data is now more important than ever. If you’re chasing ROAS without knowing margin, you’re not managing pipeline. You’re gambling with a blindfold. And if you’ve ever run paid ads that “performed” but still got you fired, this one’s for you.

  • Growth by Acquisition. Scale by Marketing
    Aug 22 2025

    Marketing isn’t about cranking out perfect, timeless content anymore—it’s about moving fast when nothing sits still. In this episode, Kate Bitely joins Carlos to talk about the messy reality of marketing through hyper-growth, mergers, and running lean. Forget “evergreen.” Think AI as your extra teammate, there for speed and sparks. And here’s the twist: the best marketers inside your company might not sit in marketing at all.

  • The Ultimate Top Funnel Play: Community Building
    Aug 14 2025

    What if everything you’re doing to “build” a community is driving it away?

    Jason Baum’s journey into community-building started in unexpected places—before it became a B2B buzzword.

    In this episode, he and Carlos unpack what most brands get wrong about building a community: it’s not a channel, it’s not a forum, and it’s definitely not a short-term play. From getting people to care, to earning trust before asking for attention, they explore what it really takes to build a space where people feel they belong and want to stay. Because in the end, a community isn’t a channel. It’s a relationship—and if it’s not genuine, it won’t stick.

  • It Starts With a Prompt. It Ends With a Point of View: How to Create Great Copy
    Jun 20 2025

    The robots can write. That’s not the problem. The problem is they can’t sound like you. And if your content doesn’t sound like you, it might as well be invisible. This episode covers copywriting in the AI era—where prompts meet point of view, sales teams drop blog ideas into Slack, and marketers try to rank on Google without losing their soul. Carlos and Shelly peel back the curtain on how real teams build content that says something. From “make sure this ranks” to “make sure this matters.” Because in the end, content isn’t a deliverable. It’s a handshake. And if it doesn’t feel human, it won’t land.

    Apr 10 2025

    In this episode of the Tailwind Marketing Podcast, Carlos Corredor talks with Brittany Dufin about understanding your customer to create marketing that hits the mark.

While too much feedback can be overwhelming, spotting key patterns is essential.

    They discuss how a consistent brand voice is more important than ever in today’s AI-driven world, and why companies fear being boxed in by committing to one voice. They compare effective communication to dating—authenticity is key to building trust.
