What marketing needs to know today.
Up to three items a morning: who each is for, why now, what changed, what it means, where you stand and what to do.
A short list, written for your buyers
Up to three items a morning, never a feed. Each names who it is for and why now.
Fact. Meaning. Position. What this opens.
Open an item and it reads the same way every time, with the receipts folded under the parts.
- Fact
- Their homepage now sells agents that ship PRs.
- Meaning
- Your buyers will weigh autonomy against review.
- Position
- Yours holds: AI coding your team can review.
- What this opens
- Room for a piece on code that is safe to merge.
Act, or wait. Both are answers.
Draft it and send it to your website, brief it, explore it, take a position, or rank it and move on.
AI-written code is ready to merge when a person can explain every change in it.
A rival's move is input, never the subject.
Make your frame the yardstick
Their move puts a belief in the buyer’s head. Your piece makes your frame the measure.
Widen the gap
They emphasise one thing; your buyers also need another, and that one is yours.
Set the agenda
A territory the category has no words for yet. Rare, and the one that compounds.
Meet the moment
A live buyer question or a demand spike. Answer the question while it is live.
Teach the buyer
The market misunderstands something you can credibly explain. The change is the evidence.
Ask anything. Get an answer with receipts.
Their homepage now leads with agents that ship PRs on their own. Pricing did not change.
In Slack, where your team already is
