If you’re still running your 2023 marketing playbook in 2026—celebrating content volume, bragging about impressions, and pointing at a funnel diagram like it’s a historical artifact—you’re not behind. You’re just asleep. Your buyers moved on. Your tech stack learned how to think. And AI is doing parts of your job now—just not the parts you should’ve been doing in the first place. This isn’t an article. This is your intervention.

What private equity, Stanford researchers, and frontline workers all discovered is surprisingly simple: empathy isn’t soft — it’s a performance driver. Giving employees real equity only succeeded in about 60% of companies. The difference-maker wasn’t industry, revenue, or geography. It was the CEO. Specifically, the CEO’s empathy. When leaders listened, communicated transparently, and treated people with dignity, employee ownership transformed culture, improved engagement, and drove materially higher financial returns.

Artificial intelligence isn’t just transforming how companies work — it’s redefining how they grow. As GTM leaders adapt to a world where data, content, and customer engagement are increasingly automated, the real differentiator becomes judgment. The future belongs to organizations that can integrate AI without losing the human insight that drives trust, creativity, and strategic decision-making.

B2B growth is being rewritten by the convergence of trust, AI, and data. Traditional funnels are collapsing under the weight of fragmented buyer behavior, giving rise to Buying Networks—dynamic ecosystems where intent, influence, and validation circulate freely.

There are no proven levers, no predictable attribution models, and no map to follow. Growth now emerges from signals hiding in plain sight: who’s talking about you at private CIO dinners, which founders are shaping the narrative, what ideas are earning trust among peers. Lets explore what’s breaking in traditional marketing and what’s working instead.

Vulnerability isn’t weakness — it’s strength. I just finished *Getting Naked* by Patrick Lencioni and *Don’t Believe Everything You Think*. The lesson? Clients don’t want superheroes. They want real people who ask the tough questions, admit when they don’t know, and put the client first. That’s how trust is earned. That’s how partnerships grow. That’s how we lead.

In B2B, trust isn’t built with slogans or glossy decks. Buyers look for proof before they ever speak with sales. They read research, scan peer reviews, and check who else stands behind your brand. And with AI search now shaping first impressions in seconds, the bar for accuracy and credibility is higher than ever.

Over the past few months I’ve tested Replit, Cursor, and now Kilo with Copilot and Claude. I’ve burned down and rebuilt instances, ripped out integrations that didn’t work, and wrestled with Docker, Digital Ocean, Spaces, and Stripe. What I’ve learned is that vibe coding isn’t about instant deployment—it’s about learning, iterating, and staying in flow. For developers, it promises faster scaffolding and fewer headaches with boilerplate. For non-coders, it opens the door to building real applications without years of training. It’s still clunky, but the direction is clear: coding by describing is evolving fast, and persistence really does pay off - hopefully.

What happens when years of domain expertise meet a frictionless dev stack like Vercel, Next.js, and Supabase? You build an MVP in a day—literally. In this post, I share how I created a full-featured marketing planning app from scratch in less than 24 hours, and what that experience taught me about the emerging concept of Vibe Coding. It’s not just about speed—it’s about alignment between tools, intuition, and deep problem knowledge. This is what the future of building feels like.
