• Tactics for driving adoption - onboarding, enablement, and change management.

• How to rethink workflows and metrics for an AI-collaborative future.

Are your customers conservative or liberal? And does it matter? 

Yes!

Political ideology is a key representation of someone’s values, behaviour, and worldview. These are all things that influence buying decisions significantly, even in B2B. 

Your company exudes values that align with right or left leaning politics, and you probably don’t even know it. 

This fascinating episode with Chris Peterson is packed with insights that will help you level up your marketing strategy. 

Key takeaway: Political ideology should be a key factor in your buyer persona maps. It represents your audience much more than gender, age, or sector!
