Episode Details

#285 Creative Strategy | In this episode, Dave is joined by Pranav Piyush, Founder & CEO of Paramark, a measurement platform helping B2B and B2C companies run smarter marketing experiments. Pranav is known for turning strategy documents into repeatable creative processes that generate campaigns, ads, and content tied directly to a company’s story.

Dave and Pranav cover:

• How to translate your company narrative into concrete marketing campaigns and creative hooks across channels
• Why creative output (not measurement) is the biggest bottleneck for most B2B marketing teams today
• The frameworks like category entry points, jobs-to-be-done, and behavioral psychology that help marketers spark fresh, testable campaign ideas month after month

You can expect a practical, example-filled conversation on turning strategy into execution and building a creative engine that never runs dry.
