From why loss aversion outperforms gain framing, to using scarcity without backfiring, to the surprising benefits of admitting your flaws, Phill unpacks examples and research-backed tactics you can apply today.

And, what’s up with Phill’s reading list? He breaks down why you should read the 25 on his list…and why there’s 5 to avoid. 

If you’re a Marketer who wants to understand the WHY behind your customers’ decisions, this is the episode for YOU.

You don’t have to like football - or even watch the Super Bowl - to win with Super Bowl marketing.

Jay and Daniel break down why the Super Bowl is one of the easiest cultural moments for any brand to lean into, including boring B2B companies and nonprofits. 

They explain why relevance beats originality, how tapping into what everyone is already thinking about boosts engagement, and why sitting out cultural moments is a missed opportunity. They also cover practical ways to do it without trying too hard and share why the week leading up to the game (and the 24 hours after) is the sweet spot for performance.

If your marketing ever feels disconnected from what’s new and “in”, this episode shows how to ride the biggest moments without changing who you are.
