Are We Drowning in Our Own Marketing Language?

This week, we break down a real example of transforming generic marketing language into meaningful content, explore how gated content barriers have spread beyond contact forms, and I share an AI mistake I made that others can learn from.

You'll hear:

• A step-by-step transformation from generic marketing language to meaningful language using a fake company and product - but a real audience. 
• How gated content hurts connection and why this barrier mentality has spread into uncomfortable sales tactics and even YouTube content.
• My confession about an AI mistake I caught myself making and how it applies to recent AI content and cognitive research.
• Research insights from Neil Patel about human-written content still wins, plus Ann Handley's post about an upcoming blogger survey,  and a gated content analysis from Impact Plus's Kaityn Petro.
• A conversation clip from my conversation with Michael Stelzner on the Social Media Marketing Podcast about breaking free from outdated processes and dangerous assumptions

This episode challenges the templated approaches that make brands sound identical, shows why removing barriers to create stronger relationships, and exposes the critical thinking skills we risk losing when we lean too heavily on speedy technology.
