The fastest way for a brand to look old is trying too hard to sound young.

A lot of “Gen Z marketing” feels like a corporate focus group discovered memes six months late. Not sure who’s really getting it right but scrub daddy seems to have turned a sponge into an Internet personality so it might be them. Is there anybody else you could think of?

I'm a marketer and I'm having a hard time getting my clients to listen to me.

I have been in marketing for 10 years now. I've worked with hundreds of clients and have been able to increase their sales by over $1 million each year.

But every time I go into a meeting with a new client, they ignore everything I say. They just want to talk about their product. They don't seem interested in learning how to market it better.
