I used to think its more creative types who would be best in marketing, but I think day by day its becoming a harder skill, ata driven, strategy focused space with less creativity. Would you agree? I think the typical person we'll see in marketing in the future may change

It always seemed like marketing was for for creative types, but technology has changed that to some degree. There's a lot more data to be wrangled now, so it can seem more driven by analysis than flashes of insight. Still, the ideal person going forward would be able to use both sides of their brain, for lack of a better term.

Marketing I’ve found is more of project management, strategy and data with like 20% creativity. That said you can still have an awesome time putting your creative flare in everything you do, it’s just how you choose to approach your work.

Completely agree with that, the 20% creativity feels very accurate to what we do today

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F

How do y’all deal with people at work who are stuck on stupid? Like they have no idea what they’re talking about and they REFUSE to learn. It’s like they have a god complex or something even with proof, maybe bc of their tenure at the company? Even if there’s valid data backing up that they’re wrong. Maybe it’s bc I’m a type 8 enneagram, but it frustrates the hell out of me!
So any advice would be lovely :)

DO YOU JUST ASSUME THE COST OF YOUR MARKETING ACTIVITIES? I am looking to allocate their cost in the marketing budget in a way that won't rely on several layers of assumptions. How do you reliably estimate the cost of different marketing activities (email, social, web, etc) when you don't have specific people or tools allocated to each function and costs are spread across many channels? Ads seems the easiest, but even then there's time and overheads... I've been looking for a reliable model.

This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.

Many thanks.
