If Alex Schultz, Meta’s CMO and VP of analytics, had his way, the term “performance marketing” would be retired. To designate certain strategies and tactics as driving performance implies that other tactics, like brand marketing, don’t perform – and that’s simply not the case, Schultz says, on this week’s episode of AdExchanger Talks.

There’s no such thing as work life balance. There’s simply life. And you spend part of your life at work. One way to change the pressure of work is to expand or contract the size of the container that holds it. It’s a trap to embrace a productivity shortcut that isn’t a shortcut at all–simply more time spent. Boyle’s law helps us realize the same thing about any gas in the physical world.

Courage is a generous act that involves risk. It’s not courageous to hang out with friends and make a crank phone call. The risk involved might be actual risk (it took courage to go to the moon) or it might feel risky (raising your hand at a meeting to ask a useful question probably has no real downside but it feels that way). Too often, we get hung up on how risky it feels, and fail to focus enough on how generous the work is.

Here’s a thought exercise. How many times have recommendations from other people driven your purchase decisions? And how many times have you bought something online without checking the reviews first? As for me, I have done that a sum total of zero times. That’s right.
