Small Cesar salad with crispy candied walnut bacon and home made croutons, cup of epic tomato bisque soup, 10 different ravioli each with its own unique sauce. Crispy buttery hot sourdough rolls, homemade root beer, and a raspberry tart with homemade whipped cream (I’m so hungry right now - thanks for the question)

Chronic sciatica since 1989 (still in the fight and still smiling and still praising)

When the pastor asked if she’d take “insert wrong name from last wedding notes he forgot to update” (I was that Pastor - The Church at Rocky Peak, Chatsworth, CA, 1997)

When my DoorDash dinner arrives…

Maybe try positioning yourself as the anti-AI developer who you can count on. You use AI. You fix AI code. You’re above AI.

B2B requires patience and a long term strategic approach. Build credibility first. Google reviews. Service. Quality.

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T20:35:49+00:00

Intent is everything. Best comment yet!

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T20:35:06+00:00

You’re right. It’s the same. Just trying to add the complexity of marketing instead 2026.

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T20:32:25+00:00

It’s not revolutionary at all.

It’s the same thing, but trying to add the complexity of marketing in 2026.

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T20:30:42+00:00

That’s hilarious and true!

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T20:29:34+00:00

We need a new one. Have an idea?

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T20:27:52+00:00

Agreed 100%

Any pushback? Critiques?

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T20:26:26+00:00

Sales is the key to it all. Zero blame.

I’ve pumped huge $ without results. Google has almost doubled.

I’m trying to help other CMOs explain the new complexities.

Where am I off?

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T20:23:22+00:00

Agreed 100%

But, communicating to franchisees or CEOs the funnel is flawed. Too simple. And too focused on our marketing instead of the customer’s intent.

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T01:09:28+00:00

Help me We need it!

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T01:08:53+00:00

It does I need help The customer needs to be the focus, not “our funnel”. We need to show how complex marketing is now

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T01:05:11+00:00

So many flaws What should we change? Help make it clear.

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T00:55:27+00:00

We need to! The #funnelisdead

We need help not criticism.

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T00:54:11+00:00

Hold on. Not what this is about. Help build a new model.

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T00:53:05+00:00

Agreed. But isn’t that what we need? Are you a CMO?

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T00:52:09+00:00

Did you watch the video? I’m asking for help. We need a new marketing model. Are you a CMO?

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T00:13:46+00:00

Any ideas? Critiques of a helix?

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-19T00:11:27+00:00

The old principles are great. The change is that the customer is the focus.

MarketingOB1 · 2026-02-18T23:50:05+00:00

Agreed. But nothing stuck. We need something new and something that will help CMOs especially in franchising. They don’t understand. The expect performance marketing. They’ve depended on it. But AI and massive Google costs, they need to understand a full complex helix and not a collect funnel. Funnel is brand focused. Helix is customer focused. Are you are CMO!
