AI is changing how personas are created

Little Talks ·

2025/04/30

This week, Sam and Roop talk AI—a fan favorite topic—from a new angle: persona research and creation. What are personas? Personas are made-up characters that represent different types of customers, based on real data around things like their age, job, goals, challenges, hopes, desires, etc. They help marketers understand who they're talking to so they can create content that connects. Good stuff. And while AI is not a 100% replacement for human-based interviews and input (far from it!), it ca...

What’s the difference between digital & content...

Little Talks ·

2025/03/26

After what felt like a long hiatus, Sam & Roop are back in the studio this week to chat about digital and content marketing. They’re often used interchangeably, but they’re not the same thing. Think of it like this: digital marketing is the ad you see—a banner, a pre-roll video, or that paid search link at the top of your Google results. It’s often backed by media dollars and designed to drive immediate action: click, watch, download. Content marketing, on the other hand, is what yo...

They discuss best practices for creating the perfect thumbnail for your blogs, YouTube videos, TikToks, and more.

Little Talks ·

2024/12/04

This week, we’re diving into a buzzword that’s been making waves in marketing circles—lo-fi content (especially over here at the agency if you keep up with us on LinkedIn).
