Welcome to the first episode of 10 Minute Martech!

To kick off the show, we have a special guest, Neil Patel, Co-Founder of NP Digital. Sara and Neil discuss the new era of what Neil coins as ‘Search Everywhere Optimization’ and why he believes building a brand is the only moat left in marketing and business.

 

Neil:

“ What really separates one business from another is not even product or service. AI is making it easy to replicate other people's products, right? What's the real difference between Nike and Adidas? They both make quality shoes. But the real difference between those two brands is the logo, the brand. And I believe that's the only real moat left in marketing and in business. Building that brand really separates you. So, companies in 2025 and beyond really need to double down on building a brand, because that's what's going to create that loyalty. Because everyone has access to the same Martech stack that others have. And if you don't build that brand, you won't do well in the long run.”
