Where does most wasted spend in B2B paid social actually come from?
Why do platforms optimise towards engagement rather than commercial fit?
How can marketers distinguish between cheap clicks, real demand, and future pipeline?
This is not another "AI will change marketing" episode. This is a practical walkthrough of what AI-native marketing operations actually look like: account research, campaign QA, reporting, competitive analysis, and data enrichment, all running through agents while you focus on strategy. We cover which workflows to automate first, where human judgment remains non-negotiable, and what the marketing stack of an AI-native team looks like in 2027. You'll leave with at least three automations you can build this week.

This episode is about marketing to the dark funnel: how to influence buyers you can't track, why "brand-to-demand" is more than a buzzword, and which signals you actually can measure without driving yourself crazy over attribution. A realistic playbook for winning deals that never touched your nurture sequence.

In this episode, Marcus Sheridan delivers a powerful message on the common misconception of being "customer-obsessed" in today's business landscape. While many companies claim to prioritise their customers, Marcus challenges this notion by revealing that most organisations, particularly in their sales and marketing efforts, fall short of truly addressing what buyers need. Drawing from his book, he introduces the "Big Five" – the key topics every buyer researches before making a decision: cost, problems, comparisons, reviews, and best options.
