  • B2B Content Marketing Strategy that Wins

    B2B Content Marketing Strategy that Wins

    *This episode of Ponderings from the Perch is brought to you by curioninsights.com. When your brand needs answers and not opinions, you need the smart team at Curion.* Anyone who’s ever been handed a glass of Tang under the guise that it was a glass of orange juice understands the subtle art of distinction between things that *seem* similar, but is definitely not the real deal. If you’re sipping on a cup of “of course we’re creating content” and wondering why it doesn’t taste like the results of a strategic content execution, this episode is for you. Priscilla McKinney, host and CEO of Little Bird Marketing sees you wasting your time with random acts of marketing and thinks you should stop. She makes the case for what a real B2B content marketing strategy actually requires. McKinney brings the full weight of her experience working with B2B companies to break down why most content efforts stall before they ever gain real traction. The problem is not a lack of effort. Companies post, publish, and produce and still find themselves disconnected from actual business results. Posting frequency does not fix a foundational crack, and buyer personas gathering dust in a drawer are a symptom of a much bigger strategic failure hiding in plain sight. "Nobody wants to hang around with someone who's trying to sell them stuff all the time," McKinney explains. "Trust compounds over time into these business relationships." The SOAR framework is on the table here, and McKinney makes a case for why most teams reach for tactics before they have earned the right to. A framework applied without the right foundation is just another good idea that never gets off the ground, and that is the uncomfortable truth this episode refuses to let you sidestep. Music written and performed by Leighton Cordell. Sponsors: Ever feel like your company is sitting on a goldmine of opportunities, but they keep slipping away?

  • Customer Insights and the Power of Context

    Customer Insights and the Power of Context

On this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, the Little Bird Marketing podcast, host and CEO Priscilla McKinney sits down with Keren Novack, President of Curion, to pull apart what it actually means to be product-obsessed, and why the brands that think they have the data to prove product success are often the ones most caught off guard when consumers walk away. Product testing has always lived in a controlled environment for good reason, but controlled environments strip out the very conditions that determine whether a consumer comes back. Context is not a soft variable. It is THE variable, and the market research industry has been slow to reckon with what that costs brands in repeat purchase, in category position, and in their ability to read trends versus movements before it’s too late. "The only expert on your product is the consumer," Novack explains. "You've got to get the product in consumers' homes. You've got to get them interacting with it in context, in a way that is familiar and comfortable to the consumer." The macro pressures bearing down on consumer brands right now aren’t arriving one at a time. From shifting eating behaviors to private label brands that no longer feel like private label, they compound. A brand without a grip on real-world customer insights doesn’t just miss a trend. It misses the moment a trend becomes a movement, and those two things don’t feel the same until it is already too late to respond. Music written and performed by Leighton Cordell.

  • Mastering AI as a Data Quality Tool

    Mastering AI as a Data Quality Tool
    2026/06/05
    The bad actors in market research have AI too, and they’re using it better than most research teams want to admit. On this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, the Little Bird Marketing podcast, host and CEO Priscilla McKinney sits down with Steve Male, EVP of Innovation and Strategic Partnerships at Logit Group, to get real about what’s actually threatening market research data quality right now and why the industry's current response may be aimed at the wrong target. There’s a version of AI adoption that looks productive from the outside and creates serious problems from the inside. The companies treating AI as a magic bullet aren’t just getting bad results. They’re baking bad assumptions into every project that follows, and the flaw compounds quietly until it is too late to course correct. "AI is simply a tool in your toolkit," Male explains, "and if you're starting with an inefficient workflow or process, it's going to just amplify that." Trust is the thing nobody wants to put a number on, but it’s exactly what is on the line. When respondents become the enemy and detection becomes the whole strategy, the ecosystem that makes research worth doing starts to quietly fall apart. The brands writing big checks based on this data deserve better than a system that can’t tell the difference between a perfect answer and a real one. Music written and performed by Leighton Cordell.
