Bite-sized research insights to grow your business in 3 minutes
Most marketers are stuck in the Stone Age.
New evidence on marketing, business, and human psychology emerges every day. But best practices are often based on outdated studies and old wives’ tales.
Ariyh is here to fix that.
Every Tuesday, you get 1 actionable marketing insight based on a recent scientific paper in 3 minutes or less. That’s why it’s read by employees at Amazon, Google, and Procter & Gamble.
Making the Rounds
Twitter plans to let users bypass paywalls and pay-per-article. Sick and tired of running into paywalls every time you click through to an article from Twitter? Soon, subscribing may not be the only option. CEO Elon Musk announced that later this month, publishers will be able to charge users on a per-article basis instead.
IBM to stop hiring for roles that could be replaced by AI. CEO Arvind Krishna estimates it could amount to as many as 26,000 people over the next 5 years. Yikes.
“Godfather of AI” quits Google. Geoffrey Hinton, a machine-learning pioneer, said he handed in his notice so he could speak freely about the dangers of generative AI and “back-propagation,” the technology responsible for many of the field’s recent advances.
Working With Clients
The Secret to Long-Term Client Success
Humans have an incredible sense of smell.
They’re also keenly aware of someone’s energy.
So be mindful of the energy you bring to client interactions.
Aim to be an energy GENERATOR.
Not a blood-sucking energy vampire.
If you can create positivity, excitement, and enthusiasm, that energy becomes infectious.
People around you will soak that up.
Ultimately, enthusiasm is a superpower…
And clients will always gravitate towards people who are fun to work with.
So do your best to keep it good vibes only.
