Welcome back to Market It Like It's Hot, the show where marketing gets real, the fluff gets roasted, and the occasional dad joke is guaranteed. In this episode, hosts Yasmine Robles and Izzy Dadoski from Rebel Marketing tackle one of the biggest challenges for entrepreneurs and small business owners: staying visible during the holidays—without the overwhelm or burnout.

You’ll learn why showing up in Q4 is still crucial, even when your competitors are taking it slow. The hosts dive into how thoughtful, light-touch marketing can keep your business top of mind among all the seasonal noise—without forcing you to grind non-stop or churn out endless content. Yasmine and Izzy break down their favorite lightweight tactics, from repurposing your best-performing content to creating story-based emails, and even getting a little personal with behind-the-scenes holiday moments.

3 Key Takeaways:

• Repurpose, Reuse, Recycle: Not everyone saw your best content the first time around. Don’t be shy to repost your top-performing posts, emails, or podcast episodes—especially if they’re evergreen!
• Light Touch > Loud Noise: Consistent, lightweight touchpoints (think: behind-the-scenes posts, personal updates, or quick “lessons learned” recaps) are more memorable than flooding every feed. Focus on the platform that brings you the most ROI.
• Done Is Better Than Perfect: Perfection = burnout. Batch-schedule basics, use content skeletons (one educational, one personal, one offer), and set thoughtful holiday autoresponders. Your audience will appreciate your transparency!

Whether you’re a solopreneur, part of a scaling agency, or someone just sick of marketing copy-paste jobs, this episode is your no-fluff guide to keeping gratitude genuine all year long.

Welcome back to Market It Like It's Hot, the podcast where marketing gets real, strategy sizzles, and the cringe-worthy clichés go to die. In today’s episode, hosts Yasmine Robles and Izzy Dadoski explore the art of expressing gratitude in marketing—without making it awkward, robotic, or, well, totally cringe.

From witty salad dad-jokes to brutally honest roasts of generic swag (yes, your logo-slapped T-shirt is probably destined for pajama duty), Yasmine and Izzy uncover how authentic appreciation can strengthen client relationships, build brand loyalty, and make your business feel truly human. Expect practical tips for standing out with heartfelt gestures, creative gifting ideas that actually get used, and real talk on how not to let your thank-yous get lost in the noise of holiday mass emails.

These ARE the do’s and don’ts of gifting.

Here are the 3 key takeaways for businesses that want to build loyalty and stand out with real gratitude:

• Get Specific & Personal: Generic “Thank you for your partnership” notes belong in the recycling bin. Name the moment, remind them why you're grateful, and keep your tone human—not like you typed “thank you email” into ChatGPT and hit send.
• Make It Timely (Not Just Seasonal): Don’t wait for the December holidays. Spread appreciation throughout the year—after a project ends, on anniversaries, or even just because. Unexpected gratitude is way more memorable.
• Pair Thanks with Something Meaningful: From handwritten notes to local cookies or a helpful resource, make your thanks tangible and relevant. The goal? Send something they’ll actually want to use, not another oversized company T-shirt destined for pajama duty.

If you’re curious about how AI is shaking up the digital landscape—and how to navigate this new frontier as a marketer or business owner—this episode is a must-listen.

Welcome to another episode with your hosts, Yasmine Robles and Izzy Dadoski!

In this episode, we talk about the rapidly evolving world of AI-generated videos. Those uncanny, viral clips are beginning to pop up everywhere, from TikTok to political campaigns. We do our typical banter through the ways AI is transforming video content, from its surprisingly human-like mannerisms to its emerging role in spreading misinformation and even influencing elections.

We look at Google’s latest VO3 technology, the ethical gray zones as marketers and creators, and the very real risks of deepfakes and AI-cloned identities. But it's not all doom and gloom. We also explore smart, responsible uses for AI video tools, like generating B-roll and multilingual content, all while emphasizing the irreplaceable power of genuine human connection in marketing. Expect candid takes, relatable examples, and our trademark humor (plus a few groan-worthy dad jokes).

Here are 3 key takeaways you shouldn’t miss:

Spotting AI Isn’t Just for “Facebook Grandmas” – Even the most tech-savvy can be fooled by highly realistic AI video content. As AI rapidly improves, distinguishing fact from fiction is getting harder for everyone—not just older generations.

Misinformation Moves Faster with AI – With tools like Google's VO3, anyone can create realistic fake videos. That means politicians can (and are) making misleading content, and marketers need to be vigilant about what they're sharing and consuming.

Human Connection Still Wins – No matter how convincing or entertaining AI videos become, genuine, behind-the-scenes moments cut through the noise. Audiences crave authenticity—real faces, real stories, real rants.
