The Marketing Millennials

Most people think LinkedIn growth comes from posting more. They’re wrong.

Daniel joins Marketing, Demystified with Jenn Mancusi to break down the real playbook for growing on LinkedIn in 2026 and why most founders and brands are missing the biggest opportunity sitting right in front of them.

From why comments might be more powerful than posts, to how the algorithm actually decides what gets seen, this conversation goes deep into the tactics that drive real reach, engagement, and business results, not just vanity metrics.

Daniel also shares how to use LinkedIn as a true growth channel by focusing on audience-first content, repeatable ideas, and shareability, plus why most people fail because they treat LinkedIn like a “post and ghost” platform instead of actually being social.

If you’re trying to grow a personal brand, drive B2B demand, or turn LinkedIn into a real acquisition channel, this episode is for YOU.

Most marketers track clicks…but almost nobody is using them correctly.

Jay and Daniel break down how to turn click data into one of the most powerful tools in your marketing stack. From building high-intent audiences to improving segmentation, they explain why clicks should be treated as a signal, not just a metric.

They cover how to create retargeting audiences from click activity, why tagging clicks by topic unlocks smarter campaigns, and how to filter out low-quality or misleading clicks so you’re not optimizing based on bad data. 

Jay also shares a simple (and slightly controversial) way to estimate bot click inflation and why your reported metrics might not be as accurate as you think.

If you want to get more value out of the traffic you already have, this episode shows you how to make your clicks actually count.

While everyone fights over Meta and Google…smart brands are going offline.

In this episode, Daniel sits down with Olivia Oshry, CMO of the Out of Home Advertising Association of America (OAAA), to break down why billboards, out-of-home, and real-world media are booming again and why most brands are still underutilizing them.

Olivia shares her journey from digital-first companies like AOL to betting big on out-of-home, and explains why the pendulum is swinging away from pure performance marketing toward a more balanced, brand-first strategy. They dive into why out-of-home works so well in today’s AI-driven, hyper-digital world and why she calls it “the human medium.”

They also unpack why attention matters more than impressions, how Gen Z discovers brands differently, and why great creative (not just spend)is what separates campaigns that get ignored from ones that go viral.

If you’re wondering how to break through rising CAC and creative fatigue, this episode will change how you think about media mix and where your brand should show up next.

What does it take to run Marketing for multiple global brands at once without losing creativity or performance?

Daniel sits down with Natalie Wills, SVP of Marketing & Creative at Expedia Group, to break down how she leads Marketing across Hotels.com, Expedia, and Vrbo…all at the same time.

Natalie shares her unconventional path into Marketing (from economics to global brand leadership), and then dives into the real strategy behind Expedia’s latest campaigns, including how mascots like “Bellboy” drive memorability in a crowded market and why bringing back nostalgic brand assets can outperform starting from scratch.

And, why do most companies still get brand vs. performance Marketing completely wrong? Natalie and Daniel discuss. 

If you’re scaling a brand, managing multiple products, or trying to balance creativity with performance, this is the episode for you.
