I am so incredibly proud of the team for executing flawlessly. I really feel like yesterday was a 10 out of 10. Last year Zeta Live was the biggest driver to new business in our corporate history, this year should dwarf that. LG 🚀🚀🚀

At Zeta Live '25, seven-time champion and GOAT @TomBrady shared how discipline, preparation, and consistency have powered every stage of his career.    In his keynote with @dsteinberg10000, he discussed how mindset and attention to detail helped him achieve the impossible 🚀

I know we love to talk ChatGPT & Sora & Midjourney, but I really think @Adobe’s gonna win the AI for marketers fight, both in output of usable creative + integration into marketing workflows. Their tools are just powerful. #AdobeSummit

One of my favorite quotes from Ogilvy: “The problem with market research is people don't think how they feel, they don't say what they think and they don't do what they say.” You can’t survey your way into every solution. You still need to develop your own point of view.

Costco and Trader Joe’s and Chick-fil-A are American salt of the earth brands at this point. Every social platform is at the wrong end of this ranking (especially this one).

Executives are most likely to be successful when their management skill set is a good fit with the challenges a company faces. Musk - who has always disdained advertising and seems to understand little about human behavior - seems like a poor fit for a social media company.

During Xi's second term as president, Chinese stocks plunged more than 50% - the worst returns in the world. Wall Street is expecting his third term will usher in a more benign investing environment, but don't get your hopes up. With @RChoongWilkins bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

You do not get paid for subscribers in the advertising world - you as ctually need people to watch Thanks @SquawkCNBC @JoeSquawk @andrewrsorkin @BeckyQuick $NFLX
"I think the bigger issue is, is the trend going to reverse? That's the key swing factor. The market is saying they don't believe it, " says @RichLightShed. "Investors haven't just given up on @Netflix, they've given up on this entire category. They just don't like streaming."
