"I don't believe you have to be better than everybody else. I believe you have to be better than you ever thought you could be." -- Ken Venturi Hearing that I was selected by Business Insider as one of the Most Innovative CMO's of 2024 really blew me away! I'm undoubtedly honored, humbled and want to say congrats to all of the marketers on the list! As I reflect on the list, it's strikes me just how much we can continue to learn and grow from one another, even at this stage in our careers. I'd encourage marketers to read the full list, but I also wanted to highlight a few stand-outs for me, personally: Lisa McKnight from Mattel, Inc. because 2023 was 100% the year of BARBIE! Samantha Maltin of Sesame Workshop -- especially for the partnership with United Airlines on "Chief Trash Officer." Brad Hiranaga from Cotopaxi, a fellow BCorp who teamed up with both HOKA and my dream brand, Headspace. Aila Morin from one of my favorite beauty brands, Merit. Their products are outstanding and I admire the way they've broken into a crowded category. Lee Anne Grant of Babylist, a company near and dear to my own heart after having two kiddos -- love that they have their own internal Content Studio like we do! Marian Lee from Netflix because I fully admire all the "traditional" and offline forms of advertising the team uses to drive to online content (their billboards alone are so fun!) Kory Marchisotto of E.L.F. BEAUTY whose partnership with Liquid Death and record-breaking sell-out, I somehow completely missed! Ryan Ostrom of Jack in the Box who I had the pleasure of meeting in Cannes last week and shared an insight about how they collect local, market insights to inform product development.
