Show Notes
Key takeaways from the episode:
- Marketing in Economic Fluctuations: When reflecting on personal experiences with marketing during economic ups and downs, it was clear that whilst there are benefits of having larger budgets during good times, there runs a risk of a team growing too quickly and becoming bloated. The need for marketing generalists was emphasised, enabling a team to be able to adapt to do more with less, regardless of the economic climate.
- Technology's Impact on Marketing: Technology, particularly AI and enabling tech, has allowed for hyper-personalisation in marketing and has elevated the CMO role into the boardroom; while technology is powerful, the human element remains crucial in decision-making.
- Investing in Marketing for the Future: The consensus was clear that cutting marketing budgets during downturns is a false economy. Investing in marketing is essential for growth, and companies that continue to invest in marketing are likely to outperform those that don't in the long run.
