    How To Create a Predictable Revenue Machine with Aviv Canaani, CRO & CMO of DataRails | Ep. 404
    Mar 27 2026
    What if your marketing team could predict revenue like a finance team predicts cash flow? Daniel sits down with Aviv Canaani (CRO & CMO of DataRails) to break down how to actually build a predictable revenue engine. Aviv shares how he reverse engineers aggressive revenue targets into pipeline, meetings, and budget, and why most companies get this wrong by hiring more reps instead of fixing demand. They go into the mechanics: cost per meeting, conversion rates, tiered lead scoring, and how to align marketing, SDRs, and sales into one machine. Aviv also explains why he eliminated prospecting for AEs entirely…and instead built a system where marketing fills calendars at scale. If you're trying to prove marketing ROI, scale pipeline predictably, or turn marketing into a true revenue driver, this episode is for YOU. ⁠https://customer.io⁠⁠ helps brands turn data into personalized messages that actually connect, across email, SMS, and beyond.

    How to Navigate Social Media with Nick Tran, President & CMO of First Round, ex-TikTok & FARFETCH | Ep. 403
    Mar 25 2026

    Where Savvy Brands Are Moving Budget in 2026 with Matt Giannetti, Senior Director, Head of Platform at Tatari (CTV Mini-Series Episode #4)
    Mar 24 2026
    The best marketers in 2026 aren’t doubling down on search and social. They’re expanding into TV. Daniel sits down with Matt Giannetti, Senior Director and Head of Platform at Tatari, to break down how modern TV actually works and why more Performance Marketers are starting to shift budget there in 2026. From why streaming alone is not enough, to why DSPs are not the same as a true TV platform, Matt unpacks the biggest myths that still keep marketers from using TV the right way. They also dive into how brands should think about TV at different growth stages, why free media credits are not always a win, and what brands need to test first before making TV a real part of their media mix. If you’re a Marketer trying to understand where smart brands are actually moving budget (and how to make TV measurable, efficient, and performance-driven) this is the episode for YOU. Tatari helps brands run TV like a modern performance channel. Unlike most platforms that focus only on programmatic CTV, Tatari gives marketers access to all of TV - linear, streaming, programmatic CTV, and direct publisher inventory - in one platform. By combining premium inventory with transparent reporting and outcome-based measurement, Tatari lets growth teams evaluate TV the same way they evaluate paid search or paid social. The result: more control, better reach, and TV spend that can actually be tied back to business results.

  • The Marketing Tactics Everyone Uses (But Won’t Admit) | Bathroom Break #100

    The Marketing Tactics Everyone Uses (But Won’t Admit) | Bathroom Break #100
    Mar 23 2026
    For the 100th episode of Bathroom Break, Jay and Daniel are doing something a little different: calling out the marketing habits everyone uses but rarely admits. Through a rapid-fire “never have I ever,” they unpack real-world tactics marketers quietly rely on, like fake urgency in promotions, deleting underperforming posts, and experimenting with questionable email tricks. It’s an honest (and slightly chaotic) look at the gap between “best practices” and what actually happens behind the scenes. They also get personal with career horror stories, including Jay’s all-time embarrassing conference moment and Daniel’s on-stage panic that proves even seasoned marketers still get nervous. If you’ve ever stretched the truth in a subject line, deleted a post that flopped, or avoided a conversation at a conference, this episode will feel very familiar.

    TV isn’t just a brand channel anymore. And if you still think it is, you’re already behind.

They also dive into halo effects across Amazon and other channels, how direct publisher relationships unlock better buys, and why the brands winning on TV are the ones measuring it like a performance channel.

    What’s Working in Marketing (And What’s Not) | Bathroom Break #99
    Mar 16 2026
    Not every marketing strategy works…ad some of the ones everyone talks about are quietly underperforming. Jay and Daniel break down what’s actually working in marketing right now AND what’s falling flat. Jay shares why going all in on YouTube hasn’t translated into meaningful conversions (yet), while Daniel explains one of the biggest mistakes brands make with B2B Influencer Marketing: relying on one-off creator deals instead of building long-term partnerships. Plus they dive into the growing importance of building your own AI knowledge base for your brand, and feeding it real customer insights so your AI actually understands your business. If you want a quick snapshot of what Marketers should double down on (and what to rethink) this is the episode for YOU.
