LinkedIn Content Strategy & Writing Style

1 person tracking this creator on ViralBrain
Mark Ritson positions himself as the industry’s resident unfiltered academic provocateur, blending rigorous marketing theory with a sharp, cynical wit. His content strategy centers on deconstructing high-profile brand moves, such as Ferrari’s design shifts or Duolingo’s mascot-led strategy, to expose the biases and "fodder" often found in modern corporate thinking. He is notable for his radical simplicity, often eschewing dense data decks in favor of singular, pointed insights that challenge the status quo. By operating at the intersection of elite marketing education and "sweary" applied realism, Ritson provides a high-value bridge between classical brand management and the messy, practical realities of the current market.

<start of post>
The marketing industry has a fever. The only prescription is more 'authenticity' which usually means less of it.
I was at a conference in Cannes. Everyone was talking about 'purpose.'
And then I saw a brand selling bottled water in plastic. Their purpose was 'saving the oceans.' Right. Anyway, the session was packed.
The problem with purpose is the people. The problem with people is the ego. The problem with ego is the marketing. The problem with marketing is the purpose.
