Launching a new product that we co-created over the past year! 🚀 It's called Reunacy and it's designed to bring people together after a loooong year apart. Easy way to set up groups + event/get-togethers/gatherings. Check it out on Product Hunt 😸! 😸 producthunt.com/posts/reunacy

Brands that take a safety-in-numbers approach may avoid the problem of being dismissed by customers, but it’s likely to lead to an even worse outcome — being totally forgettable. Wrote a new piece on how to stand out in a Sea of Sameness. 😀 mapandfire.com/blog/competiti… #branding

There’s a lot of interesting discussion (and opportunity) happening around demand generation marketing right now...but not as much on how to get started. Wrote a new piece on how to use brand positioning to spark your #demandgen strategy...⚡️ mapandfire.com/blog/demand-ge…

The first example of our upcoming AI-generated brand logo collection. They are all created without human guidance. We trained the ML model and let it decide what it thought was best. The results have been weird and fascinating.😄 #AIart #MachineLearning #brand

So much joy discovering the pod 60 SONGS THAT EXPLAIN THE '90s this week. Deep dive nostalgia with all-time favs: Pavement, Smashing Pumpkins, Alice in Chains, Radiohead. Created by the hilariously poignant rob harvilla whose vocal stylings are like a long-form Mitch Hedberg.👏
