TEAM MEMBER SPOTLIGHT - Hanna Lamb

 
 

Meet 100 YARDS team member, Hanna Lamb!

Hanna started out at 100 YARDS as a “CMO”—running accounts and working across teams to bring our clients to market. Since the beginning, she has worked with the team on operational improvement and later shifted to focus almost exclusively on content strategy across 100 YARDS’ clients.

What is your favorite project or initiative that you have contributed to during your time at 100 YARDS so far?

Hard to choose just one! 

I’ve enjoyed growing our content strategy as new technologies, voices, behaviors (and more) shift quickly. It’s pushing us to think shorter, smarter, bolder, and brighter—right alongside our clients. 

And by far my favorite client story is this: 

We have worked with a niche-y financial services-focused platform for many years. During that time, we worked with leadership to… 

  • Execute on a full turnaround

  • Achieve marked growth (getting them to a winner’s position)

  • Scaled marketing (to bring in more leads—and close more deals)

  • (Ultimate win!) Sell to a larger, complementary company (to deliver value to original investors and global resources to a platform that had more than proved product-market fit was there)

Through all of it, our mandate likewise moved swiftly across marketing infrastructure analysis and set-up, go-to-market planning and execution, a re-brand, investor relations / management presentation prep, and transaction communication. 

A full-service marketing mandate if ever I heard of one! Fabulous. 

How has your role evolved since you joined 100 YARDS, and what milestones have you reached along the way?

I started out with deep corporate and executive communications expertise, lots of executive, turnaround, and change strategy work. 

…But very little true marketing experience. I had also spent much of my career working with big, known corporate entities and their leadership teams; not so much on the growth side of things. 

I was itching to learn something new, expand my own experiences, and stretch my creativity and problem-solving skills in the growth space.

I started out here at 100 YARDS as a “CMO”—running accounts and working across teams to bring our clients to market. 

Since then, I’ve worked with the team on operational improvements, flexed my creative and operational muscles where our clients have needed it, and shifted to focus almost exclusively on content strategy across 100 YARDS’ clients. 

What skills or lessons have you learned that have helped you succeed in your role?

I’ve had to refine my ability to broker communication. No one does well operating on assumptions. 

And: There is a difference between moving quickly (for results) and moving too fast (breaking too many things). It’s critical that we keep our eye on the former, and mitigate the latter. 

Can you describe a challenge you faced—and overcame—while working here?

There are challenges every day, be they technological, interpersonal, or something else. We work through them as they come. It really is as simple as that. 

—Oh, and I don’t do witch hunts. Ever. Put another way: it can feel tempting to search endlessly for “whose fault is it?” when something goes south. Know when that answer is truly important, and when (90% of the time) it’s more important to move forward and fix what cracked. Save all that time, energy, and interpersonal capital for wins, instead of losses.  

What’s a quote or motto you live by?

Live life like it’s a giant improv game: always start with ‘yes and.’ You’d be shocked by how much can be accomplished when you resist the urge to list all the reasons why something would never work, and at least entertain the possibilities of what’s in front of you, has been proposed, or is floating out there. 

And: respect the fact that almost nothing is as simple as it seems. Embrace nuance, but don’t get bogged down by noise posing as detail.  

If you could describe your experience at 100 YARDS using only emojis, which ones would you choose?

🔥 💡📈 🎨 🚀


All right. 100 YARDS is all about balance. Right brain / left brain… work / life… 

So that got us thinking… 

Are you a right brain or left brain?

Uh… is it possible to be a center brain? Seriously, I’m probably more left-brained, though… my right brain absolutely fires at will. 

Introvert or extrovert?

I absolutely read Quiet. Highly recommend to all the people everywhere. Pretty sure it’s stood the test of time. So with that in mind I’m… an outgoing introvert. 

You can spend the afternoon at a museum, a ballet, a play, a symphony performance, or the opera. What do you choose?

Tough call!!!! A play–I love a good story unfolding before me. 

You can have breakfast with Cookie Monster, Big Bird, Elmo, or Grover. Who do you tap to join you for that coffee and croissants? 

Damn. I basically DO have breakfast every morning with three-ish Cookie Monsters, so I’ll go with Grover: his ideas are great if mis-guided.
Fun fact: I named my only dog Grover. He was unbelievably mischievous and cute. Coincidence? I think not.  

Drive or fly?

Fly. 

What’s for dinner: Mexican, Italian, or French? 

Mexican. 

You can only say one word for the next year. Is it “STOP!” “THINK!” or “GO!”?

Ha. The philosopher in me says “THINK!” The practical side of me says “GO!” I’m feeling optimistic today so I’ll “GO!” with “THINK!”

Rock, Paper, or Scissors? 

I’ll never tell. 

A creature bites you and gives you superpowers. Is it a spider, a bird, an octopus, or a poison tree frog?

Octopus: camouflage + multi-tasking turned up to 11 (err… 8). Bonus points to anyone who gets the reference.


Trail bike ride or Peloton?

I suck on bikes. So I will always go Peloton. Don’t ask about my favorite instructor—it’s a moving target. 

Thanks! 

Thank YOU! 

QUESTIONS ABOUT AI

 
 

100 YARDS Cofounder, Josh Mait, dives into all things AI…

Let’s talk about AI. And not in the way like ‘use ChatGPT to do XYZ annoying thing faster or better or never.’ And also not in the way like I have any fucking idea about what is coming next (and those that say they do are kind of…).

First of all, AI is going to steamroll the traditional definition of company: what a company is, what a company does, what is the employer-employee relationship, what is work (at a company) and what role companies play in society. 

And the steamrolling will potentially happen pretty radically, pretty quickly—and will mean real change for many. So that could mean…

  1. Traditional companies (maybe all companies) are reevaluating staffing in the context of the role of AI.

  2. This may result in a significant decline in employee size amongst many companies. 

  3. Investments from VC and PE firms may also decrease because you need fewer people to build large, successful companies. 

  4. The gig economy only grows from here and blurs FT vs. Fractional. 

I selfishly think and care about how companies tell their stories and express a POV to the market. I think this is going to get harder to do with the widespread adoption of AI that is happening now. 

In the AIWorld there are many questions: 

  • Did a man or machine do this—or both? Does it matter? 

  • What happens when there is more magic in the world that most will never understand? 

  • Ultimately, how much do people need to understand how the sausage is made? 

  • What is perceived as ‘valuable’ (AI, people, results, etc.) and how do you talk about it? 

  • How do you manage fear and trepidation as often the primary, initial emotions (along with holy shit that’s cool!)?

  • How much can we learn from other moments—iPhone/mobile, internet, other—or not? 

  • Will this make us more or less loyal to brands and products? 

  • Where does pricing power come from in the future? 

These are big brain questions without a lot of data to look at to help us understand better. 

One thing seems right: thinking and talking about your positioning to the market is probably even more essential than before. AI is a timescale accelerant. You don’t get years anymore. You can’t run 6-12 month ‘brand projects’ anymore. You have to figure out a way to be quick and move forward now. AI brands are always on in an AIWorld. That means they are always changing more rapidly than before. 

 Here are some starter ideas to consider that seem interesting if unproven: 

  • Does AI know how to think out of the box? Not sure. It seems to make contrarian viewpoints more and more valuable. Write down 3 things your company sees differently than others and test them. 

  • Being too perfect is a disastrous strategy imho. The young kids are going to hate it. Skepticism is only on the rise. Mix in a little humanity every once in a while.  

  • Voice and the tone in which you communicate are now more important as communication gets flatter and less distinguishable overall. 

  • Using ‘AI’ in your product or brand positioning is going to get old pretty quick. Marc Benioff just called it out. 

  • What an amazing time to live in to TAKE A CHANCE, be boldly expressive, create words and ideas and things that no one has ever seen before. But be brave enough to take those chances and push the boundaries. 

More questions than answers if we are being honest. Fun to talk about via email (joshmait@100yardstogo.com) or via a scheduled call here.

RUNNING MARKETING WITHOUT A MARKETING TEAM

 
 

You’re at the helm of a company primed for hockey-stick growth. Your product is in the hands of customers. Revenue is starting to flow. But as the horizon expands, so does the challenge of generating new leads — it’s no longer just about tapping into your network. Your investors and mentors are all telling you the same thing: “It’s time to invest in hiring out a full marketing team.” 

It seems like the obvious next step, right? Bring on people who can manage all your marketing efforts, set your marketing strategy, and be in charge of building your team. They’ll manage all aspects and take it out of your hands. 

But hiring a marketing team too early can set your company off course for months or years. The process is time consuming. You might hire the wrong person. You might hire people who have the wrong skills for your business. Your business’s needs might quickly change and require a different type of marketer. Each one of those mistakes can cost you time and money in the long run. There are few things you can do instead that will set up your company for present and future wins.


1. Focus on one thing at a time

You hear the phrase all the time from jet-setting consultants. You can’t “boil the ocean” - and they’re right. For early-stage companies’ marketing, if you try to do everything at once you’ll do nothing well. You need to learn what works. But more importantly, you need to learn what doesn’t and adapt. To start with, are you focused on increasing the top of your funnel or the bottom of your funnel? Does your business need to optimize the quantity of leads or the profitability of conversions? Setting broad goals when you’ve just put a foot into the world of growth marketing muddies your strategy and wastes effort. When you tackle one growth challenge at a time, you can learn from it, refine your approach, then move onto the next one.

2. Get just enough marketing technology

Now, we all love shiny new toys, but when it comes to marketing technology, it's easy to fall into a money pit. You need to aim to have just enough tech to meet your goals without overcomplicating. Sometimes businesses at your stage may have a system of dozens of disconnected software platforms held together with digital duct tape (like Google Sheet automations that everyone says “don’t touch anything!”). Sometimes they’ll have a single system for email marketing, analytics, CRM, plus accounting and HR but the complexity of the business has outgrown that setup. Whatever it is, it’s important to focus on if the technology works for your business, not if there’s some mythical “better way.” 


3. Follow the metrics that matter

In marketing, data is your compass. But not all metrics are created equal. Focus on the ones that genuinely guide you towards revenue and profit. It’s not enough to say “let’s improve the funnel” - you need to decide what is most important right now. It might be the priority is awareness so you’ll focus on metrics like number of website visitors or ad impressions. For most B2B companies, you’ll be focusing on getting leads that convert. If your business is getting leads but deals aren’t closing, you may need to focus on mid-funnel metrics like marketing qualified leads and optimize for that.

Echoing our first point - focus on one thing at a time, learn, then optimize. By zeroing in on the key measures that support the one effort of focus, you can navigate through the fog and find your way to optimize your marketing spend.


4. Ensure marketing and sales are working together

The biggest downside of hiring a marketing team too early is you’ll split your sales and marketing teams. You might think that’s an obvious divide – sales teams make sales and marketers market the product – but it’s all part of one long funnel from awareness to close. If your funnel is split up into two parts there’s no way to establish a strong feedback loop to find the best leads. 

When incentives are aligned, marketers will learn from salespeople what makes a high quality lead and fine-tune their offering, and marketers can help salespeople by relaying what messages resonate with leads. By working together, side by side, marketing and sales shift from a cost center to the core of your business’s revenue generation. Getting the right team in place is the best way to get these teams aligned.

5. Get the right kind of help

You’ll never find the perfect hire, the perfect person who is fully left brain and right brained. But businesses at the growth stage desperately need someone with maximum creativity as well as someone numbers driven. Challenges change. New learnings turn to different strategies. That pendulum quickly swings back and forth. A large personality leading a large specialized marketing team can clash with the rest of the organization when adaptations are needed. 

At 100 YARDS, we're more than just a stopgap on the road to hiring a marketing team; we're your partners in crafting a marketing strategy that scales with your vision. Whether you're seeking fractional CMO services or a full-service growth marketing team, our expertise is your asset. We grow with you and adapt as you evolve.

WHAT'S IN A NAME? THE ORIGIN OF 100 YARDS

 
 

“How did you come up with the name ‘100 YARDS’?” 

It’s a question we get almost daily. So for all our clients, friends, and just-plain-curious contacts, we are putting in on the record, courtesy of 100 YARDS co-founder Josh Mait: 

In 2018, my partner, Alex Gonzalez, and I started to realize we had something that started to look like a real company. For a while, our corporate name was simply what we did: CMO Services, LLC. 

Boring. 

And that’s ironic considering how we tend to approach branding/positioning for our clients. Funny enough, I think it was Alex who said, “We need a better name.” (If you know Alex, you know).

Like every naming project, inspiration comes from who knows where. Or—as Rick Rubin states: “Talent is the ability to let ideas manifest themselves through you.” I guess I got lucky here because after one late-night session thinking about things, the name appeared and was instantly attractive:

  • Strong, somewhat-masculine, sports reference

  • Spoke to key POV: there is no silver bullet in marketing, you have to do X number of things, and it is a long journey. 

  • The URL that was available furthered that narrative: 100yardstogo. It gave the sense of a process and journey.*

  • MOST IMPORTANT: it is memorable because it is interesting. 

  • Related: it is a question name, as in, people want to ask questions about it. Which, in many cases, is all that matters when it comes to branding.

We have played with the logo and the visual identity at different points but ultimately stayed the course because it just feels strong and powerful and has a POV. Which is us. 

*There has been confusion around how to write out our name 100 YARDS or 100 YARDS TO GO… we are here to say we are (currently) the former. Space, all caps, and all.

THE NON-MARKETER'S GUIDE TO MARKETING

 
 

If you’re a business leader questioning the impact of marketing investments, you’re certainly not alone. There’s a reason C-Suite attitudes around marketing regularly border on skepticism. 


Consider this unofficial definition:

     Professional Marketer

  1. A person skilled in the promotion of products and services for the purpose of persuading consumers to buy or rent them.

  2. Secondary definition: A person skilled in the creation of slide presentations for the purpose of persuading superiors to let them continue creating slide presentations. 


The fact is, despite lofty promises that the digitization of media would bring certainty and rigor to the advertising and marketing professions, the reality today too often seems not very far removed from that described (apocryphally) by the famed early-20th-century retailing magnate John Wanamaker: “I know that half of my advertising budget is wasted, I just don’t know which half.” 

And yet.

For all the challenges facing 21st-century marketers (digital and otherwise), what was true in Wanamaker’s time is true today: the most effective marketing campaigns combine right-brain dreaming with left-brain counting.

That is to say, creativity is even more critical today than ever. You need a big, bold narrative to cut through the clutter of the modern era. That’s as true for B2B companies as it is for direct-to-consumer marketers. 

But as a full-service, on-demand growth marketing team, we here at 100 YARDS know that if the numbers don’t add up, that bold creative wasn’t such a great idea after all. In other words: Both the left brain (the logic and language locus) and right brain (the innovation and intuition hub) are important for impactful marketing. 

We would know: collectively, 100 YARDS leverages both sides of the brain to serve each of our clients. Our work is inspired by big ideas and executed in easy-to-measure ways for real accountability. You won’t find opaque marketing metrics that feel fabricated to the (rightly) wary business leader. 

You can learn more about our take on B2B marketing by reading The Non-Marketer’s Guide to Marketing in pillars that roughly follow the marketing journey. 

Because if you don’t use the words “pillars” and “journey” in a marketing article, who's gonna take you seriously?

FOUR (SIMPLE) MARKETING STEPS TO FUEL B2B GROWTH

 
 

Marketing is often cast as being costly and noisy, mostly because marketing is often, um, costly and noisy. Too many marketing departments—and the professionals who staff them—get stuck in reactive loops or PowerPoint hell or [your personal organizational timesuck here]. 

So, yeah, it can all get to you. Most businesses find initial success with pre-existing relationships and then plateau or worse. That’s when they engage marketing professionals, with the goal of building a funnel to fuel growth.

So how do the smartest and most successful businesses avoid the common marketing pitfalls?

It’s a question we get asked a lot, especially at initial meet-and-greets with potential clients. Our answer, at this point, is based on our work bringing strategic marketing capabilities to growing companies in a myriad (primarily B2B) verticals. Specifically, we’ve identified four marketing fundamentals that deliver scalable, predictable, and measurable results. These are them (with bonus parentheses):

  1. Establish a (transparent) reporting framework: There are a million ways to spend money on marketing, but how do you know if your dollars are working? The best systems track marketing efforts like SEO, events, content and more all the way down to the wins—and, in so doing, offer actionable insights. We don’t recommend huge tech stacks, but every firm needs marketing automation and a CRM system that talk to one another so you can determine how leads are progressing through the funnel.

  2. Create a (resonant) voice: We’ve seen too many companies get stuck telling their founding story rather than evolving their messaging and communication. Potential customers want to understand why your product or service is relevant for their story. They want to quickly and easily understand what you do and why it will add value. These two aspects should translate to each touchpoint along the prospect journey, from social posts to your website to your sales presentations.

  3. Optimize performance (via the right channels): Spraying the world with random ads is a waste of time and money. You want to show up where your customers live, whether that’s LinkedIn during the morning, Facebook in the evening, their email inbox at 12:37 PM or any other node in the space-time continuum where the right target will engage with your content.

  4. (Speaking of which) Create relevant content: In our experience, some businesses don’t value quality content at all and some get way too precious about every comma, period, and jargon-filled reference. To be successful, you need to find the sweet spot between spewing out bad (most) ChatGPT-generated posts and highly technical deep dives. Focus on developing a steady (but not overwhelming) stream of content that is engaging and valuable to your target audience.

Experience tells us that adherence to these four building blocks will help you build an acquisition model that enables you to know the cost at each stage of funnel activity, thus allowing you to make informed choices about how much and where to spend those precious marketing dollars.

Because if nothing else, we want to make marketing less noisy and costly (and more effective).

STUFF WE LIKE: ANDY RASKIN'S APPROACH TO BRAND NARRATIVE

 
 

One of the biggest conversations we have with our clients, new and existing, is around brand narrative. 

Brand narrative is the heartbeat of not only marketing, but how a company sells itself, internally and externally. By definition, it sits at the intersection of:

  • Domain/product expertise

  • A deep understanding of the buyer

  • Exciting language that is simple, clear and persuasive to bring it all to life

In marketing terms, the narrative is what drives how a company goes to market: done well, it clarifies your company’s core value proposition for investors, customers, prospects, employees, and partners alike. 

Pro tip: when it’s time to put your brand narrative to the test, a sales deck is often the easiest and most effective medium; it will lay bare any gaps on details in a way other methods may not. 

We work directly with our clients to get sales teams to act boldly in using strong narratives that bring the buyer into the story and take them to the ‘promised land’ slowly. 

…which brings us to Andy Raskin.

Andy Raskin is a true leader on the power of strong brand narratives. Like us, he drives conversation on that topic consistently. 

Andy’s post here uses sales decks as his primary prototype when discussing his approach to articulating brand narrative. We share it with clients frequently because it’s both smart and simple enough to replicate and tailor to any company’s needs.


Put simply, Andy’s approach advocates for a customer-centric approach that avoids chest-pounding or leading with feature/function-led. Instead, he focuses on bringing urgency to the story by highlighting ‘a change in the world’ that impacts the buyer.

… But we often need to caveat.

This is all theoretically simple enough. But a good narrative can often end up on the shelf for one of three reasons:

  1. Commitment to the ideas. The best narratives have full support from the CEO. Similarly, any narrative, no matter how good, will fail if the CEO doesn’t buy in completely and repeat it consistently and with every audience.

  2. Clean execution. The best advice we can give is to focus on the core ideas; drop the rest because it is noise. If you need caveats, lots of nuance, or other disclaimers, it’s time to rethink things. Your litmus test: if you can’t get to the point in 30-45 seconds, it’s time to take a second look to get there.

  3. Adoption across the company. This is about ensuring everyone is swimming in the same direction. Just as CEO buy-in is critical, narratives fall apart when they aren’t taken on as the language of the land by everyone within your company, from sales to customer support to product, and beyond.  

There’s lots more where that came from. 100 YARDS is a full-service growth marketing team. We serve as our clients’ marketing engine, focused on the art and science of demand generation, performance measurement, and brand awareness. Contact us for a free assessment on your business.

CFO & CMO: TWO SIDES OF THE SAME BRAIN

 
 

While a company’s vision resides with a company’s CEO, CFOs inevitably play a crucial role in choosing strategy—either directly or by signing off on expenditures. Yet when that spend is on a (left-brained) CMO’s marketing campaign, how does the due-diligence (right-brained) CFO decide whether to sign off or not?  And how does that CFO determine if that ad spend is actually working?

Two distinct examples from B2B marketing highlight the dire need of answering just those questions. The first, a hugely successful marketing spend that led to millions in revenue: a free email signature generator created by HubSpot that led to $8.5 million in net-new customer lifetime value every six months. The second example, a giant B2B marketing blunder: prior to working with Disruptive Advertising, a company had spent $150,000 on Google Ads and not produced one single sale. Yikes.

In either scenario—incredible gain, incredible loss—you can imagine the decision being made in the moment. The C-suite sits round the table as the CMO concludes their presentation. Suddenly, the CFO, flushed and having waited patiently for the numbers, blurts: “But how are we tracking conversion here?  What’s the lead-to-MQL conversion rate?  What’s the MQL-to-SQL ratio?”  Their right brain is furious.  “How do we know if this campaign will work?” 

The CMO, caught off guard, hems and haws for a bit.  Their left brain is insulted, and hurt. As if struck by inspiration, the CMO replies (almost daringly): “Haven’t I done well in the past?” They smile. “Just trust me.” 

Of course, given limited resources and the CFO’s need for facts and their necessary risk-averse profile, extending blind trust to a CMO isn’t easy.  Neither, obviously, is it sound business. Going off a CMO’s “gut feeling”—or signing off on a marketing campaign solely on trust—isn’t strategy. How does a CFO know if they’re following HubSpot’s example and building an evergreen, massively profitable customer acquisition tool? How does the CFO know if they’re just blindly following the CMO down a Google Ad rabbithole? And is determining the difference between a CMO’s brilliant plan and monumental blunder really the CFO’s job?

 

THE EVOLVING ROLE OF THE CFO

It goes without saying that the CFO’s traditional roles of steward (preserving assets, maintaining books) and operator (providing financial analysis, modeling, reporting) are still of fundamental importance. But such roles, around which the traditional CFO’s degrees (BA, MBA, CPA, CMA, etc.) are typically built, are increasingly becoming the bare minimum for entry into the CFO position. More and more, CFOs are being asked not just to steward a company’s finances, but to be leaders, strategists, and catalysts too.  Increasingly, CFOs are being asked to partner with the CEO, helping to determine which business ventures are worth pursuing—not just which ventures maintain cash reserves, but which tactics will actually increase the bottom line. As one consultant put it, CFOs are being asked to go from “CI-NOs” to “CI-GOs”.

Plus, making the contemporary CFO job even harder, a really good CFO will help spur strategic and marketing ventures that not only increase revenue, but that are in line with the company’s mission and purpose. Lending a qualitative air to a position that used to be straight by the numbers.

 

HOW THE CMO HAS EVOLVED, TOO

Meanwhile, the CMO role is changing too. Marketing was once considered the soft arts and crafts of business. And advertising spending reflected (and for some companies still does) marketing’s perceived softness. As merchant-magnate John Wanamaker is popularly quoted as saying: “Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don’t know which half.”

But as marketing becomes increasingly digital—and therefore the sales pipeline becomes increasingly quantifiable, trackable, and verifiable—the responsibility of the CMO to directly tie marketing spending to revenue is becoming a requirement of the position (even if tie-in between expenditure and revenue is long-term). CMOs who fail to establish the connection between marketing and a company’s bottom line are getting cut. (In fact, average CMO tenure at the top U.S. ad spenders is down to 39 months.)

 

IT’S A MATTER OF DOVETAILING RISK

As the role of CFO turns more strategic and leadership oriented, and as the CMO role becomes less “soft” and more and more data driven, an obvious merger begins to occur. Imagine CFO and CMO as two competing sides of the same brain now realizing that they’re actually part of a whole—and beginning to talk. The CFO, once strictly relegated to financial diligence and therefore mitigating risk, becomes more dependent on the CMO to provide calculated opportunities for business growth and development.  The CMO, on the other hand, once allowed to run wild (just throw money at Google Ads—it works!), becomes more cognizant of the company’s fundamentals, more aware of the company’s audience, and more nuanced in their risk management.  

Ultimately, what’s needed to determine a marketing strategy’s viability is a common parlance between CMO and CFO, a visual language that not only speaks to a company’s mission, but that establishes common, explicit, and simple metrics for measuring a campaign’s success. 

After all, a marketing failure doesn’t have to bring a company to the brink of bankruptcy.  And in this day and age, with the right teams and tech in place, the right-sided CFO and the left-sided CMO can finally speak the same language. Across the lobes, if you will.
