Surface and serve ‘the power of people’ – an open letter to tech services marketers

Sell aspiration not anti-perspiration – a philosophy for software marketing

Imagine the scene. A TV ad for a world famous anti-perspirant, where our hero is just about to make the rock climb of their life. Picture the director, sizing the dramatic perspectives that show the peril of the route in-frame and the atmospheric shots of the climber’s preparations. Edit-in the…

Sell the impact not what’s inside – an appeal to cloud and AI marketing pros

We all know one. An inquisitive, passionate petrol head that knows the inner workings of the combustion engine. Someone who can explain the mechanics of the turbocharger, crankshaft and gearbox. They’re a great source of free education – but they can be very heavy on the minutiae you pretend to…

Resist the urge and rise above the FUD – a plea to cybersecurity marketing

The Scream movie franchise has been a box office smash over the last 3 decades (yes, the first one was 1996!). It’s used wave after wave of dramatic storyline, unsuspecting victim and bad guy to get bums on seats. And it seems much of the cyber security market is following…

25 years of innovation and success with AT&T

We’ve come a long way since launching the AT&T MPLS capability in EMEA 25 years ago. At that time - due to the millennium bug - the IT function was mid-planning for tech meltdown and business was thinking about social Armageddon. Way back in 1999 (yes, the previous century), AT&T…

The Rubicon Agency’s 25-year relationship with Cisco

There seems to be a poetic symmetry to Cisco’s claims of accelerating internet uptake 25 years ago – and their current campaign claiming that 80% of traffic runs through their infrastructure. Not only were we supporting them back then, but we continue to do so even now. In 1999 Cisco,…

This secret gives the best series-B CMOs the edge

At this stage in the start-up journey, investors expect more structure and more obvious professionalism in marketing. You can no longer build your marketing effort solely or mainly around your founders and their vision. The time for scrappy, ad-hoc communications is over. Now, you need structure, not just in brand…

This is the path to series-A marketing and growth success

You have a serious marketing challenge on your hands. Typically, at this seed-to-series-A stage, start-ups face two common marketing pitfalls: The first is simple: they don’t know how to market, so they just don’t do marketing and hope things will simply work out. They won’t. The second usually happens when…

How to wow VCs with the right start-up marketing strategy

Little wonder that these small, incredibly dedicated teams who are already overworked with the task of turning an idea into a business, don’t have time for marketing.
