Episode 436

Udi Ledergor is back on the pod—and this time, he’s bringing the fire behind Courageous Marketing, his new book that challenges everything safe, stale, and same-same in today’s crowded GTM world.As the former CMO of Gong during its hypergrowth years (multi-billion-dollar valuation, anyone?), and now Chief Evangelist, Udi knows firsthand how to build brands people actually love. In this episode, he and John dig deep into what separates average from iconic in today’s AI-drenched world of “best practices.”You’ll hear:

Why courageous marketing requires risk, not just reach
The 10-20% “crazy idea” budget every brand needs
How sales and marketing can truly work together
The real difference between vanity metrics and valuable growth
How to craft a brand people feel, not just see

Whether you’re a marketer looking to break the mold or a seller tired of lead-gen lip service—this episode is for you.
