Before I get into this article, credit for the idea comes from a conversation with my friend, Jack Malcolm. Thanks for provoking the idea. The term, “prompt engineering,” is relatively new to most of us. While software developers and AI specialists have understood the concept for year, it’s very new for the rest of the world. But as the LLMs have emerged and grown, the concepts of prompt engineering are starting to fill our feeds.

Using an AI assistant is becoming the norm, especially for companies looking to stay ahead in fast-paced environments where efficiency can make or break lucrative deals. But what many leaders don’t realize is that AI copilots — think chatbots that are powered by generative AI — can take specific actions that are tailored to their business. Whether that means summarizing online information in real time, automatically updating customer relationship management (CRM) records, or using historical dat

With businesses watching every dollar, today’s marketers and marketing leaders need to demonstrate ROI on their martech investments or risk losing them. Gartner’s 2023 Martech Report drew a great deal of attention when it reported falling utilization rates for marketing technology applications. The report showed a steady decline in martech utilization and put the blame on a lack of training and the complexity of the solutions.

“Buying” customers can work. Just not all that well over the long haul, it turns out. Direct-response, digital ads (like paid search) are among the best converting channels anywhere. Like, ever. In the history of time. No joke. Google it. It’s the #1 best way to spend money today to generate revenue tomorrow. (Or even over the next ~2-3 months.) But here’s why this can set you down a dangerous path if you aren’t careful – and actually result in a higher CPL over the long term. 1.

Struggling to find a job in SaaS today? Here’s the thing. On the one hand, jobs are fewer, layoffs are up, and spend it tighter. Everyone has to be 2x or more as efficient as 2021. But on the other hand … literally almost every SaaS company I know doing even reasonably well is hiring. And … struggling to find anyone truly good for their roles. So finding a job may be 5x harder than 2021, but there are still a vast number of unfilled roles at just about every good or great SaaS company.
