    When a marketer has to delegate...

    In this episode, Josh and Adrienne explore the benefits of bringing on a generalist assistant or a specialist. Adrienne shares her experience hiring VAs from both individuals and an agency. Know the variety of playbooks available, but always do what’s best for you and your own business. Decide what to hire and how to lead: * What do you enjoy? Even if some say it’s a waste of time for a founder to perform some tasks, if it’s something you enjoy, why would you hire that out? Josh used the example of how he still mows his own lawn, despite most of his neighbors hiring a landscape service. * What do you dread? Know what you hate to do and be comfortable hiring that out. * Learn how people want to work, hear feedback, and praise. This is a public episode.

    Was the creator economy a bubble due to zero-interest rates?

    Kamil Rextin from 42 Agency joins Adrienne and Josh on Marketing Retro to dig into a recent tweet about Kamil’s hypothesis that there’s a connection between interest rates being zero and the booming creator market. We defined creators as individual people monetizing from audiences and promoting via social platforms. From Kamil's perspective, it used to be okay to take risks without having tons of data or worrying about conversions because interest rates were low. However, things have changed now that interest rates are higher. It's not as easy to get money as it was before. This could have an impact on the creator economy, especially for those who rely on B2B sponsorships and deals with brands. There’s a huge disconnect between people selling to other people, and creators relying on B2B companies. Some key takeaways: * B2B companies need to understand their attribution metrics. * Creators should create multiple streams of revenue. * A new content creator may find it challenging to gain the same momentum as someone who started two or three years ago, possibly due to the current state of things.
