In a recent LinkedIn Post, a young man brags he used AI to steal the titles of his competitor’s posts. Once he had the titles, he used AI to write a post for every title, stealing their traffic. I am certain he is telling the truth about this, and that it’s working. I hope there is a place in hell for barbarians like this, but it's more likely his life is already a kind of hell.

I’ve noticed a huge gap in how we equip and train our sellers, how we help them engage our customers in high impact conversations that focus on them and their problems, not pitching our projects. This gap became bigger with Challenger, as we equipped our people to provide “Insights.” And more recently, with new customer research and AI tools, the gap has become even greater.

In a move that may significantly impact some email marketers, Google is set to start deleting inactive email accounts this week. Google initially announced the plan, which only applies to accounts that haven’t been used for at least two years, in May, giving users six months to take action. Inactive email accounts don’t engage with marketing emails and don’t respond to messages or make purchases, which means on some level, Google might be doing email marketers a favor by presenting this pu

Google Ads exec Jerry Dischler has stepped down after more than 15 years to take on a new challenge. The tech giant was not able to disclose what the “new challenge” is or whether he would remain within the business, but did tell Search Engine Land that the decision was not related to the recent federal antitrust trial. After more than a decade working in advertising, Google explained it was only natural for Dischler to want to try something new.

So Fastly is a public Cloud company you may not have heard much about in a while. It started off with a ton of PR and attention as a next-generation, super fast CDN, and had an early IPO, but for the most part, has quietly been heads down since then. Customer count isn’t really growing anymore, as we’ll see below. For a while, its market cap dipped to a tough low — but 2023 was good for Fastly.

Using email to book new meetings sounds awesome. Unfortunately, it isn’t because it simply does not work effectively. In our house we seem to have the ability to make a lot of trash. And every Monday night I wheel two big trash barrels down to the bottom of the long driveway and repeat the process in reverse on Tuesday nights. The only thing enjoyable about trash days is that Dinger loves to “do the trash” with me.

Before there was CRM (Customer Relationship Management), there was CM (Contact Management). Today’s CRMs are still based on their CM roots but they are now much much more than that.
