I have been writing about KPIs and ROI my entire career, with the topic becoming especially hot and heavy during the dawn of social media. I recall discussing the topic at a digital marketing dinner about 15 years ago, where after several glasses of wine, the bold consensus was to forget direct ROI and instead find inherent value in the new relationships we could garner on socia

So there’s a vertical SaaS company at over $600m ARR that is extremely well known to its customers that you’ve probably never heard of — Instructure.

TikTok implemented new restrictions on ads targeting U.S. teens and introduced AI disclosure requirements for advertisers. Why we care. These changes aim to protect younger users and increase overall ad transparency, potentially impacting how advertisers reach and engage with TikTok’s audience. It’s also an example of a social platform choosing to build stronger guardrails for user privacy rather than having those guardrails imposed on them by legislators.

Deal slippage is a huge issue for all sellers, but also for buyers. Let’s dive into what drives deal slippage. Most deal slippage is not really deal slippage. Let me call it “faux slippage.” This slippage has nothing to do with the buyer, their sense of urgency, or when they need to have a solution in place. Faux slippages is a result of seller error.

From time to time, you’ll see a story about what is and what is not a customer data platform (CDP). It’s a legit question. If I buy something that’s labeled as soap, I want it to do what I expect soap to do. In the same way, the label “customer data platform” should include some things and exclude others.

As someone who makes a lot of in-person and online transactions, I’m amazed at how much payment processing has evolved. If I’m scrolling Instagram and see a skincare product I’m interested in, I can go to the brand’s shop and make a purchase without even leaving the app. Not to mention how much tap-to-pay transactions have sped up my coffee runs. No matter what kind of purchase I’m making or whether it’s being made online or off, I know that the payment process is taken care of.
