The Marketing Advice You Should Ignore Immediately | Bathroom Break #89
Every January, marketing advice explodes…and most of it isn’t great. Jay and Daniel rip through the most common pieces of marketing advice that sound smart but quietly hold teams back. From the pressure to be on every social platform to the dangerous mindset of “I wouldn’t click that,” they explain why opinions, over-planning, and fake best practices kill real performance. They talk about why you are not your audience, why testing always beats internal opinions, how content calendars can slow you down, and why distribution now matters more than creation.  They also unpack the biggest myth around AI in marketing and why it’s not replacing marketers, just lazy execution. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting advice, paralyzed by planning, or pressured to follow trends that don’t actually work, this episode is for you.  Follow Jay: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/schwedelson/ Podcast: Do This, Not That Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: https://themarketingmillennials.com/ Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

The Marketing Psychology Behind High-Performing CTAs | Bathroom Break #88
There’s a marketing tactic that feels obvious, a little annoying, and somehow still works better than almost anything else: telling people exactly what to do. Jay and Daniel break down why direct instructions like “open this, save this post, screenshot this, and send this to your team” consistently outperform vague or polite calls to action across email, social, ads, and websites. They dig into real data behind subject lines that boost open rates, why platform signals like saves and shares matter more than ever, and how moving your CTA to the beginning instead of the end can change performance. They also explore how action-forward buttons and more explicit copy can increase retention…not just clicks. If you’re struggling to turn attention into action, this episode is for you.  Follow Jay: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/schwedelson/ Podcast: Do This, Not That Follow Daniel: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@themarketingmillennials/featured Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/Dmurr68 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-murray-marketing Sign up for The Marketing Millennials newsletter: https://themarketingmillennials.com/ Daniel is a Workweek friend, working to produce amazing podcasts.

What to Do During the First 2 Weeks of January | Bathroom Break #87
The first two weeks of January are not business as usual…and treating them like they are can quietly sabotage your entire Q1. In this episode of Bathroom Break, Jay and Daniel break down why early January is one of the most misleading times of the year for marketing performance. From flooded inboxes and short attention spans to false negatives on new tests, they explain what not to panic about and what you should be doing instead. They cover why monthly goals beat quarterly planning in January, how to audit automations before they send the wrong signal, why remixing last year’s content often outperforms brand-new ideas, and how shorter copy and simpler messaging win when everyone’s just trying to get back on their feet. If your January marketing ever feels underwhelming, broken, or confusing, this episode explains why, and how to set yourself up for a stronger February, March, and beyond. Keep it short.

A New Email Metric to Track in 2026 | Bathroom Break #83
Want more replies, but all you hear are crickets? Daniel and Jay unpack one of the most slept-on tactics in email and social right now: getting your audience to reply to your campaigns.
