Listen Later

Leadership isn’t taking marketers seriously because the conversation isn’t happening in their language. On this episode of Scrappy ABM, host Mason Cosby lays out a practical framework to shift how marketing programs are presented to align with executive priorities. Drawing from his experience generating $25 million in tangible revenue and leading a team responsible for more than $100 million, Mason explains how to reframe your work around six core leadership concerns: sustained organizational growth, efficiency, profit, attracting and retaining top talent, fostering a positive culture, and continued innovation.

Listeners will walk away with clear, repeatable ways to prove marketing’s value, tie programs to measurable business outcomes, and protect budgets when inevitable cuts arise.
