×Welcome to The Rose and Rockstar - with the Chief Troublemaker at Seventh Bear, Robert Rose, behind the bar serving one of his splendid cocktails while our host Ian Truscott, a CMO but not a rockstar, picks his brain on a marketing topic. This week, over a Michelada, Ian asks Robert’s advice about providing 90-day plans during a recruitment process, and Robert shares the relaunch of his website robertrose.net . They discuss: Making assumptions before you can do proper discovery Whether it’s reasonable to ask for this level of effort The benefit of the process to both the candidate and the hirer Boxing these requests into scenarios and limited projects Avoiding sounding generic If you have a question for the bar, or maybe an opinion on what was shared this week, please get in touch - just search “rockstar cmo” on the interwebs or LinkedIn.

Welcome to The Rose and Rockstar - with the Chief Troublemaker at Seventh Bear, Robert Rose, behind the bar serving one of his splendid cocktails while our host Ian Truscott, a CMO but not a rockstar, picks his brain on a marketing topic. This week, the topic is culture jacking, as Robert wrote a very timely piece on the Content Marketing Institute's blog: How B2B Brands Capitalize on Meme-Worthy Moments , as our LinkedIn feeds are filled with images of a kisscam from a Coldplay concert. Key points from the chat: Less “newsjacking” as politics becomes so divisive, and humor has become difficult. Memes and culture jacking are filling the gap, but can be a double-edged sword Understanding cultural references is crucial for effective engagement. Not all memes resonate with every audience. Authenticity is key. If you have a question for the bar, or maybe an opinion on what was shared this week, please get in touch - just search “rockstar cmo” on the interwebs or LinkedIn.

Welcome to The Rose and Rockstar - with the Chief Troublemaker at Seventh Bear, Robert Rose, behind the bar serving one of his splendid cocktails while our host Ian Truscott, a CMO but not a rockstar, picks his brain on a marketing topic. This week, on Ian’s mind is is the importance of individual credibility vs brands in content marketing and what this means for B2B. Should we worry about creating thought leaders, and they leave? They discuss: AI is influencing how we perceive content authenticity. The 'from line' in emails is more important than the subject line. B2B brands need to invest in promoting their employees as thought leaders. Social media is shifting from brand-centric to individual-centric content. Trust is being built more around individuals than brands. Navigating employee influence requires trust and motivation. Do you have a question for the bar? Or maybe an opinion on what we’ve discussed?

Welcome to The Rose and Rockstar - with the Chief Troublemaker at Seventh Bear, Robert Rose, behind the bar serving one of his splendid cocktails while our host Ian Truscott, a CMO but not a rockstar, picks his brain on a marketing topic. This week, Mary Meeker, who some describe as the queen of the internet, has published a 340-page report called Trends – Artificial Intelligence, that Robert has some thoughts on, so that’s this week’s topic, discussed over a cocktail blended especially for Father's Day tomorrow. They discuss: The challenge of reporting on AI, as while the report is excellent, some points feel dated due to the fast pace of AI development. AI should be viewed as a tool rather than a replacement for human workers. People describe themselves as AI-enhanced, but no one ever said they are “spreadsheet-enhanced”. There's skepticism about AI's capabilities compared to human intelligence and the need for diverse human input. AI is “free puppies”, not “free beer”; it’s not saving as much human work as has been predicted. Do you have a question for the bar? Or maybe an opinion on what we’ve discussed?

As it’s Saturday, you may be expecting our host Ian Truscott to be sipping a cocktail and picking the brains of Robert Rose in the Rose & Rockstar, our virtual bar. However, an overrunning appointment means Robert didn’t make it to the bar, so Ian goes solo. For this last-minute solo, Ian picks a topic he recently shared in a webinar for Marketing Profs - “The ART of Content Marketing” - where he shares the role content marketing plays in creating Awareness, Revenue, and Trust. The main points Ian makes this week: Marketing should focus on creating ART, not just content. Content marketing targets the 'dark funnel' of potential buyers. Building brand trust is crucial for long-term marketing success. Content should be useful and address the needs of the audience. Content should be launched and marketed like a product. Regular audits of content strategy are necessary for effectiveness.

The critical concept of being distinct. Avoiding confusion about your place in the category. The impact of AI and the importance of brand recall. Creating “uncommon value” to differentiate.

The output of AI is less important than the thought process it encourages. AI is trained to agree, so we must prompt it to challenge our ideas.

This week, Ian and Jeff continue to discuss the CMO’s first 90 days, focusing on the fourth of their 5 F’in’ Marketing Fundamentals - The Campaign. The first three fundamentals are primary inputs to when and how you communicate to your customers and prospects, and this fundamental is where the rubber hits the road as you use that insight and content to engage with relevant, customer-centric campaigns. Clearly, in the first 90 days, this is primarily about listening and understanding what is working, and Ian and Jeff outline five steps to this process: Focus on a customer need Determine business goals Create the campaign team Align the tactic mix to the buyers’ journey Determining ROI (budget and outcomes) As always, we welcome your feedback.
