  • Go-to-Market Plays #4: How to Execute a Comeback Campaign
    Apr 23 2025
    Your best opportunities have already used your product before. How can you get them back before they disappear forever? Enter: the Comeback Campaign. Tamara says the point of the campaign is to remind people why they signed up in the first place and what they’re missing out on. Creating this type of FOMO can urge people to check you out again. From strategically placed ads to email efforts, there are a ton of ways to get creative. Plus, Daniel gives a real-life example with the Uber app…one that has probably gotten you to come back before (and you didn’t even know it!). If you’re looking to avoid “the one that got away” and keep them coming back, this is the episode for YOU…and it’s short and sweet. ⌛ Follow Tamara: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamaragrominsky/ Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: www.workweek.com/brand/the-marketing-millennials Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

  • SPECIAL SERIES: This Is How You Should Audit | Bathroom Break #52 🚽
    Apr 21 2025
    We’re heading into a bumpy economy. So, it’s time to audit what we’re doing in marketing. How do we do that? Auditing is all about alignment. Are your brand’s efforts in line with what’s going on in the world? Are you wasting any money, time, resources, etc.? One of the first things to change is KPIs and really figure out what matters. Plus, it’s time to audit tools and software you’re using. Jay gives an example from his company: they’re reprocessing files and saving money from going through everything. When things are uncertain, it’s time to focus on what you can control. And, Daniel says marketing is still important, even if it’s often the first budget to get cut during an economic downturn. People may not want to spend their hard-earned money on trying a new product. Because of this, doubling down on retention strategies is going to be the key to success. This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about preparing for what’s about to come. 🚽 Follow Jay: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/schwedelson/ Podcast: Do This, Not That Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: www.workweek.com/brand/the-marketing-millennials Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

  • Go-to-Market Plays #3: How to Make Your Marketing Stick
    Apr 16 2025
    There are three things guaranteed in life: death, taxes, and people forgetting about your campaign. How can you make your marketing and comms efforts memorable? Tamara mentions that most marketing fails to stick when marketers focus too much on the product features and not the emotional connection between the brand and the customer. People remember what problem the product can solve more than its fancy features or capabilities. Daniel also brings up the Made to Make It Stick framework: the most successful marketing gets remembered, shared, and repeated. How can something so silly, like the Duolingo Owl, get people on board? If you’re looking to make your brand and product STICK in people’s minds, hearts, and wallets, this is the episode for YOU…and it’s short and sweet. ⌛ Follow Tamara: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamaragrominsky/ Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: www.workweek.com/brand/the-marketing-millennials Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

  • SPECIAL SERIES: The 7 Deadly Sins of Marketing | Bathroom Break #51 🚽
    Apr 14 2025
    What should you NOT do in marketing? There’s lots, but Daniel and Jay are breaking it down in seven parts. First, when you market to everybody, you’re actually marketing to nobody. You’re gonna be more successful with a specific customer set in mind. Plus, narrowing it down makes positioning and messaging way easier. Also, are “best practices” actually outdated? Jay thinks so. Every time you hear about a best practice, it’s best to test it out for yourself. And, Daniel reminds us that skipping strategy and going straight to tactics is a NO-no. Who are you running ads to? What’s the offer? When, why, what, and how? These are questions that you need to start off with, not answer along the way. This short ‘n sweet Bathroom Break is all about avoiding what you can and doing better. 🚽 Follow Jay: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/schwedelson/ Podcast: Do This, Not That Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: www.workweek.com/brand/the-marketing-millennials Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

  • 321 - How to Think Long Term in Marketing with Andrew LeRay, Director of Brand Marketing at National Women’s Soccer League
    Apr 11 2025
    Have you noticed more and more people are watching women’s sports? This episode’s guest, Andrew LeRay of the National Women’s Soccer League, is on a mission to grow the league through brand, product, and more. How do you sell tickets and merchandise to people who may not know the league exists? Andrew suggests that education and brand awareness are the two concepts driving people to think about the NWSL. What are some ways Andrew has changed targeting strategies for the brand? Since coming into the role about two years ago, Andrew talks about how strategies back then were about retention and how the focus is now on creating messaging to welcome new viewers. Plus, the NWSL has ties with US Soccer and other national teams. How do you leverage the popularity of more famous players in the league when they’re away from their national teams? With the retirements of Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe, there’s a new set of players to be on the lookout for. Women’s soccer doesn’t just happen at the World Cup or the Olympics, so the league is THE place to watch it while you wait for the next tournament. If you’re a marketer who wants to learn more about growing or reshaping a brand, this is the episode for you.

    Apr 9 2025
    Small brands are up against bigger ones all the time. So, how can you be small but mighty? It’s easy to get swept up in competition and copy what other brands are doing, like using similar words and taglines. BUT, if you do this, you risk being a cookie-cutter product. The best brands don’t try to copy. They try to be unique. Enter: contrast marketing. It’s more than just about listing features and fancy words…What storyline does your product tell? Tamara and Daniel recall the Justin Long PC commercials. If you’re looking to make a statement and do something different compared to other brands in your field, this is the episode for YOU…and it’s short and sweet. ⌛ Follow Tamara: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamaragrominsky/ Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: www.workweek.com/brand/the-marketing-millennials Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.
