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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Being a CEO comes with a level of solitude. You’re no longer just part of the team; you’re the boss, making decisions that impact lives, futures, and the company’s trajectory. But leadership doesn’t have to mean isolation. The best CEOs stay connected—engaging with employees, customers, and peers to combat loneliness and lead more effectively. Because at the end of the day, the strongest leaders aren’t just at the top—they’re in the trenches.

When I was contemplating becoming CEO, many people suggested I read this “old” book. So there I was, lounging under the Cancun sun with a breakfast smoothie (fine, a piña colada) in hand, when Ben Horowitz’s words hit me like an unexpected wave: “There are no silver bullets for this, only a lot of lead bullets. Leadership, I realized, isn’t about waiting for the perfect solution to appear—it’s about persistence, grit, and making tough calls, whether in the boardroom or at a street-side taqueria deciding between tacos and ceviche.

Marketing isn’t just about conversions—it’s about sticking in your customers’ minds. The brands we remember aren’t always the best; they’re the ones that show up consistently, dominating our thoughts through sheer visibility.
