It’s important for a company to share the principles and values that make up its foundation. If you’re not careful though, it can come across as a disingenuous sales pitch. How do you ensure that you do so genuinely and not turn off potential customers?
On this week’s episode of 33 Tangents Jason, Hila, and Jim discuss the challenges to promoting the core values of a company authentically and not letting it turn into a marketing gimmick.

When soliciting solutions to business problems your organizations has, you have the potential to receive varying solutions from different sources, both internal and external. When you receive a solution from an external agency, do you know what the core drivers that determined how the agency went about designing it? Do they have your best interests in mind or do they have theirs? This week Jim and Jason cover this topic while talking about current state of analytics and marketing technology.

When it comes to being a technical implementer, one of the key ways to provide value is through the deployment of analytics and marketing technology data collection logic. Putting a significant amount of focus on this can be a problem because the many times the value is fleeting. There is always something new to deploy and before you know it, you’re stuck in marketing pixel hell. How can you make sure you’re providing value without falling into this trap? Do all tag deployment requests carry the same weight. This week Jenn, Jason, and Jim share their experiences dealing with this and what they did to ensure their efforts were focused on the most critical items.

33 Tangents - Episode #77 - Presenting to Executive Teams
Friday Oct 18, 2019
Friday Oct 18, 2019
Recently Jim and Bryant presented to a client’s executive team. These kind of situations can be nerve wracking and can make the most seasoned presenter nervous. For those who are detailed oriented, these kinds of presentations can be filled with landmines. Too much information or too little information can cause the presentation to spiral. Wording is critical as one mislabeled item will cause the attendees to fixate on the wrong item or believe there is a problem when there isn’t.
What are best practices when it comes to presenting to an executive team? What are things to you need to avoid and what are things you need to make sure to do?

33 Tangents - Episode #74 - The Document is Not the Deliverable
Friday Sep 27, 2019
Friday Sep 27, 2019
With many engagements, the focus is a document. Questions like “What is the status of the document?” and “When will the documentation be delivered?” are often asked. The document is viewed as the deliverable when in actuality, the document is not the deliverable.
The solution conveyed in the document and the process to identify and design the solution are the deliverables. This is a key difference, but something so many miss. Why is that the case? Why is the document the focus and not the solution and path taken to get to the solution?
This week Jim and Jason discuss the difference between taking a client on a journey that provides value vs completing and shipping documents.
