I think B2B marketers keep making this mistake. They're chasing volume instead of quality. And when you try to be seen by more people instead of the right people, all you're doing is making noise, but that noise rarely shifts the needle, and it's often quite expensive. And I know, as there was a time in my career where I kept making this mistake, that many of you will be making it too.

And then I managed to find my way off the alcohol. My brain is still addicted, right? My brain still has that addictive sort of predisposition. So isn't it the case that I'll just end up being addicted to something else that gives me a dopamine hit?
