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 refreshing cocktail, Ian and Robert discuss an idea Robert shared about losing creativity in B2B marketing on Goldenhour, a LinkedIn Live event with Anthony Kennada, founder of Audience Plus and three-time CMO.
Some key points from the discussion:
-
Data and processes are overshadowing creativity in marketing.
-
Many marketers are leaving the profession due to a lack of creativity.
-
AI is not solving the problem.
-
Precision in marketing can lead to mediocrity.
-
Marketers are focusing on efficiency rather than emotional connection.
If you have a question for the bar or an opinion on this week’s discussion, please get in touch – just search “rockstar cmo” on the interwebs or LinkedIn.
Enjoy!
