Ever looked at your marketing tech stack and thought, “How the hell did it get this bad?” You’re not alone. In this episode of CMO Therapy, I sit down with the brilliant (and brutally honest) Oren Greenberg to unpack why so many marketing leaders end up drowning in tools, silos and false promises.
We dig into:
- Why so many stacks turn into a Frankenstein monster of overlapping tools
- The cultural pressures that drive quick fixes over strategic thinking
- How to spot when a tool is actually adding value vs. just adding noise
- Why integration is less about APIs and more about asking “what data do I really need?”
- And the CFO-style mindset every CMO needs when deciding where to invest.
I loved it when Oren said “Are you trying to build something for average? Or are you trying to build something that’s right for your business in your context?”
This one’s a must-listen for any senior marketer ready to tame the chaos and take back control.
