It's Day One of MAD//FEST 2024, and not even the rain could keep our team away from learning about the latest and greatest that marketing has to offer ☔
Here's a few of our top takeaways:
👥 Vibhor Kapoor from NextRoll reminds us of the importance of creating customer personas and utilising them to help your brand thrive in a post-third-party cookie world.
📊 We took a deep dive into the good, bad, and ugly side of the ethics of AI for consumer brands, featuring the wise words of 💡James Poulter (from our Next 15 sister agency House 337) on feeding AI better datasets to reduce biases and improve outcomes.
📊 It turns out there's more to the future of marketing than AI, as zero-party data was another hot topic of the day, courtesy of Lawrence Horne of Ogury, who looked at the vital role it should play in contemporary marketing strategies.
What if I told you that you can have an appealing dashboard in Excel as in PowerBI? Anyway, natively, powerbi reports are simple but external tools (Python, Figma, Power Point...) take it to another level, but some of these tools do work with Excel too
Reflects reality! It's important to ensure that improvement initiatives translate to genuine progress. While cosmetic changes, can create a temporary illusion of transformation, sustainable impact requires addressing the foundational elements of Culture, People, Process, and Tools.

Gary Vaynerchuk - Gary, no offense, but where are the real results?
I agree with your sentiment about living up to your full potential.
It’s a great ideal. But here's the thing—we don’t need more quips and quotes.
We need results.
It’s easy to offer motivational soundbites when you’re operating from a place of extreme wealth, with a life that’s already "paid for" by the success of past ventures.
But what about those of us still fighting to make it?
When I look at influencers like Ed Mylett or Neil Patel, they also post inspirational content.
The difference is, they back it up with tangible results—proven strategies and financial impact.
What about you, Gary?
What are your results?
Motivational quotes without substance feel like empty calories.
It’s like a skinny person claiming to be a Weight Watchers coach because they’ve "always been thin."
If you haven’t lived the struggle, can you truly coach others through it?
And what happens when life isn’t guaranteed, or the air isn’t so crisp in the ivory tower?
The truth is, potential doesn’t come from clever one-liners.
It comes from action, from the grind, and from results.
We don’t need questions from on high to remind us what’s possible—we need tools, systems, and proof.
So, Gary, what’s your proof? How do you deliver results?
Because at the end of the day, potential isn’t something you hand out.
It’s something we build, brick by brick, on our own terms.
Think about this as you head into the new year...

Redefining yourself isn’t about abandoning who you were; it’s about evolving into who you really want to be. It’s about aligning your life with your authentic values and creating space for what genuinely brings you joy and purpose.
When we can choose to step back, reflect, and ask: What do I truly want?
I am giving myself 2 years to figure this one out. Then I will move into implementation phase.
What values or goals have you redefined for yourself recently?
