This one’s for anyone in marketing who’s still clinging to outdated tactics. I sat down for a conversation at Advertising Week and went deep on how the industry is changing — fast.

This one’s for the marketers, brand builders, and business leaders still clinging to yesterday’s playbook. In this high-energy keynote and raw Q&A from the conference, I’m throwing punches—at outdated marketing models, bloated ad budgets, and the creative delusion plaguing our industry. We’re in the era now. Organic creative IS the strategy. If you’re not over-investing in social content, you’re being outflanked by companies that didn’t exist a year ago. No more disguising bad creative with fat media buys. In 2025, if it doesn’t hit organically, you don’t spend a dollar promoting it. Period. 👊 This is a call to DITCH THE DELUSION and start telling the truth—internally and externally.
