Marketing is like dating.

1) Get a girl's attention (Headline, subject line, pop-ups)
2) Keep her interested (Body copy, offer, testimonials)
3) Convince her to go out (Purchase, book a call, sign up)

If you've been on a date, you can do marketing.

Real talk...

Are these trending tweets actually useful to anyone? Do they help you do better marketing? Worthy of this much retweeting?

I think maybe I *get* marketing Twitter until I look at what's trending. Then I scroll & think, "maybe I don't get marketing Twitter at all?"

Kawhi removed Gatorade from the table during a All Star Game Interview.

Paul Pogba removed a non alcoholic Heineken beer bottle.

Cristiano Ronaldo & Manuel Locatelli removed Coca-Cola bottles.

This thread on Uber and Lyft shows that whoever controls the media controls the narrative, and the narrative can convince people to do terrible things—including voting for a proposition that hurts themselves.

Cory Doctorow @doctorow

When CA's #Prop22 passed in 2020, it killed the right of gig workers to unionize and it permanently enshrined the practice of worker misclassification: pretending employees are independent contractors, not entitled to health care, overtime, pensions or basic protections.
