Marketing Musings
The space for musings on marketing that are too chaotic for a carousel, not strategic enough for an algorithm to deem them valuable, or polished enough for a post. Just honest reflections on the art and psychology of marketing, from someone who loves it, questions it, and lives it. - By Emma Orlando

S2 Ep3 The Problem With The "Sexy Sell" 09.10.2025 22:02
In this week’s episode of The Mirror , I dive deep into a marketing pattern many of us have unknowingly fallen into: the sexy sell. You know, the polished promise that gets instant attention: “Book out your services,” “Hit 10k months,” or “Grow your dream audience overnight.” But what happens when those promises don’t quite match the depth, nuance, and truth of what we actually do ? I unpack how u...
S2 Ep1 Why Change Makers Need Change Making Marketing 23.09.2025 20:20
Season 2 of The Marketing Mirror is here and it’s about to change the way you see marketing, for good. Because here’s the truth: the “sexy sell” has dominated the industry.

And yes, as we spoke about last week, we can change pe...

Ep13 How to Boost Your Bookings With Aligned Clients By Creating Boundaries In Your Marketing 11.12.2024 19:51
"Good" marketing doesn't just get new clients in. It boosts your bookings with clients that are a good match to your service.

Know how much they are going to get... and what requires further investment/another service. The clearer...
