The Fan-Damn-Tastic Marketing Show Episode 9: The Art of Building and Sustaining Momentum

BigALHappy New Year. y’all!  Welcome to the ninth episode of The Fan-Damn-Tastic Marketing Show!  In this episode I talk about the power of momentum, what it allows us to do once we have it and why it proves so elusive to build and sustain.  At least it is for me, what about you?

Show Notes:

1:15 – The value of building and sustaining momentum

1:55 – How Nick Saban builds momentum at Alabama by leveraging on-field success to create a stronger recruiting pitch.

4:00 – Alabama’s record-setting crowd for 2007 A-Day.

4:50 – Saban empowered Alabama’s fans and gave them a way to contribute to Alabama’s success, he told them how a big crowd at A-Day would help the program, and the fans responded.

7:00 – The $51 Million Dollar recruiting pitch that Alabama makes to recruits.

10:00 – Why I don’t follow this advice

11:00 – Why my content creation schedule is completely uneven

12:10 – Why companies and small businesses have this same problem balancing time between doing work and doing the things that get you more work

I hope you enjoy this episode, and if you have feedback, especially on how you handle this balance, please email me and let me know your thoughts!

About Mack Collier

My name is Mack Collier and I am a digital marketing and content strategist located in Alabama. Since 2006 I've helped companies of all sizes from startups to global brands such as Adobe, Dell and Ingersoll-Rand, create customer-centric programs, content and experiences. A long-time internet geek, I've been online since 1988 and began using social networking sites in 1991 when I joined Prodigy. Today, I help companies understand how new technologies like web3, crypto and artificial intelligence can integrate with existing marketing strategies to lead to exceptional customer experiences.
