More than a hundred years ago, John Wanamaker, the forefather of modern marketing, made a statement that still rings true for many b2b organisations today: “Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is, I don’t know which half.”

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful tool that can help to automate repetitive tasks and streamline content production. However, “with great power comes great responsibility” - and businesses must have a robust AI policy in place to use AI for marketing effectively and ethically.

Dark social isn’t a new phenomenon; in fact, it’s been around for about a decade. However, it seems to be the major buzzword among marketers everywhere.
So many companies spend precious time and resources posting to social media several times a day. They saturate their feed with pictures, posts, and memes. But because there's no real rhyme or reason to their strategy, their social media presence fizzles out. Sound familiar?
Running a marketing department can be a tricky job, but running one for a company that’s quickly trying to scale up marketing efforts can feel like a whole other level of craziness. Sometimes, it feels like there are not enough hours in the day (because there usually isn’t) as you manage an...
