For Tim Sparke, feedback is something marketers should seek relentlessly, but one thing companies and people aren't really set up to receive. And that includes data in... data driven marketing.

But most importantly, we talk about his and Congregation Partners' ambitious new project: the Trevi app. A safe sandbox for marketers to test ideas, explore data, and compare different generative models. Find out all about it in this latest episode.

Dan Saunders is the Head of Performance Marketing at Evergreen Finance London and our latest guest on the #ShinyNewObjectPodcast.
He swears by "The Way of the Wolf" to teach us why everything we do is ultimately, a sales job. He believes the best thing to do with data is get stuck in, finding your starting point and just using it - not being paralysed by how much of it you've got.
And he tells us why the future of marketing sits with Performance AI that quantifies everything we used to look at as subjective. As long as humans are at the helm, that can yield highly effective conversion results. Tune in to learn how.
