    How To Build Fandom with Kimberly Veale, SVP of Marketing & Communications, Portland Fire | Ep. 413

    The playbook for building a sports team just changed…and most brands aren’t thinking big enough. Daniel sits down with Kimberly Veale (SVP of Marketing & Communications, Portland Fire; ex-Golden State Warriors & Valkyries) to break down what it actually takes to build a fanbase before a single game is played. Kimberly shares a behind-the-scenes look at how modern Sports Marketing works, from selling out season tickets pre-launch to turning a team into a full-fledged lifestyle brand. She explains why women’s sports fans behave differently, how merch becomes a leading indicator of demand, and why culture, community, and storytelling matter more than ever. They dive into what most brands get wrong when entering women’s sports: relying on outdated playbooks instead of building authentic connections. Kimberly also breaks down real examples about how the best teams create moments that fans actually care about. If you want to understand the future of Sports Marketing, community-driven brands, and why “social followers” might be the most overrated metric in marketing, this episode is for you. Wrike brings structure, visibility, and accountability to work, so companies can make better business decisions, improve efficiency, and reduce risk.

    New LinkedIn and Instagram Features You Need to Use Now | Bathroom Break #106

    The platforms just told you exactly what they care about…are you paying attention? In this episode of Bathroom Break, Jay and Daniel break down two major updates from LinkedIn and Instagram that Marketers should be jumping on immediately. Jay explains why LinkedIn’s new off-platform event ads are a game changer for driving webinar registrations and lowering costs, especially if you adopt early before competition increases. Daniel dives into Instagram’s latest shift toward shareability and skip rate, and why the first two seconds of your content now matter more than ever. They walk through how to audit your content for skip rate, improve hooks, and optimize for shares so your posts get more distribution. They also explain a key insight most marketers miss: when platforms roll out new features, they reward early adopters, giving you a temporary advantage if you act fast. If you want quick wins in social and paid right now, this episode is all about spotting the signals and moving before everyone else does.

    Social Strategy in the Age of AI with Jack Appleby, Founder of Future Social | Ep. 411

    The bar for good content just got higher…and most brands aren’t ready. Daniel sits down with Jack Appleby (Founder of Future Social, ex-Beats by Dre, Verizon, Microsoft, Twitch) to break down what’s actually changing in social media AND what still separates great brands from everyone else. With 15+ years in social, Jack shares a candid look at how the industry has evolved - from the early days of “figuring it out” to today’s AI-powered content explosion - and why most brands are getting strategy completely wrong. They dive into the biggest misconception in social right now: confusing content with strategy. While everyone is chasing trends and pumping out posts, the brands that win are the ones building real emotional connections, original ideas, and repeatable creative systems. Jack also shares real campaign breakdowns (including ones from Dunkin and Adobe) to show how the best brands turn simple ideas into viral, high-impact content. If you want to build a brand that actually stands out on social in 2026, this episode gives you the blueprint.

    Marketers, Are You Using AI like This? | Bathroom Break #105

    If you’re only using one AI tool, you’re already behind. Jay and Daniel break down how Marketers should actually be using AI right now and why relying on just ChatGPT isn’t enough anymore. They dive into new capabilities across platforms, including ChatGPT’s updated image generation, and why Claude’s “skills” feature can save hours by acting like a reusable prompt system for your brand voice, paid media, and more. They also explain how different tools dominate in different areas, from Gemini’s deep integration with Google Ads and Workspace to Claude’s superior writing and connectors. What’s the real advantage of using AI tools? The real advantage comes from using tools together, not picking sides. If you want to stay competitive in marketing, this episode is a guide to building your AI stack and actually using it day to day.

    The New Rules of LinkedIn Growth | Marketing, Demystified Podcast

    Most people think LinkedIn growth comes from posting more. They’re wrong. Daniel joins Marketing, Demystified with Jenn Mancusi to break down the real playbook for growing on LinkedIn in 2026 and why most founders and brands are missing the biggest opportunity sitting right in front of them. From why comments might be more powerful than posts, to how the algorithm actually decides what gets seen, this conversation goes deep into the tactics that drive real reach, engagement, and business results, not just vanity metrics. Daniel also shares how to use LinkedIn as a true growth channel by focusing on audience-first content, repeatable ideas, and shareability, plus why most people fail because they treat LinkedIn like a “post and ghost” platform instead of actually being social. If you’re trying to grow a personal brand, drive B2B demand, or turn LinkedIn into a real acquisition channel, this episode is for YOU.  Wrike brings structure, visibility, and accountability to work, so companies can make better business decisions, improve efficiency, and reduce risk.

    How to Turn Clicks Into Real Revenue | Bathroom Break #104

    Most marketers track clicks…but almost nobody is using them correctly. Jay and Daniel break down how to turn click data into one of the most powerful tools in your marketing stack. From building high-intent audiences to improving segmentation, they explain why clicks should be treated as a signal, not just a metric. They cover how to create retargeting audiences from click activity, why tagging clicks by topic unlocks smarter campaigns, and how to filter out low-quality or misleading clicks so you’re not optimizing based on bad data.  Jay also shares a simple (and slightly controversial) way to estimate bot click inflation and why your reported metrics might not be as accurate as you think. If you want to get more value out of the traffic you already have, this episode shows you how to make your clicks actually count.
