I am going to keep beating this drum until it drowns out all the noise and all we can hear is a steady beat: Lead With Value Always.

Most brands get this wrong but some have been getting it right for decades. Patagonia gets it. They spend more time talking about the planet than about their jackets. Their blog is full of stories about activism and the outdoors. They make actual documentaries. None of it is a sales pitch. It’s for their community.

That is leading with value. You give your community something worth their time before you ever ask for the sale. The trust and loyalty follow.

What could you give your community this week, with no ask attached?

Every May, near the rock in the center of our driveway, a few persistent green shoots appear like clockwork. A few weeks later, this motley group of plants transform as their papery petals unfurl to reveal the bright red blossom of a poppy. Each year these flowers bloom, just as they once did in Flanders Fields, as if to remind us of those who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we may continue this grand experiment in freedom and democracy that we call the U.S.A.

So as you warm up the BBQ this afternoon, or gather with friends and family, think of those who are absent but never forgotten.

Do not break faith; take the torch and hold it high.

Happy Memorial Day.

In 2013, Sony released a 22-second video that buried Microsoft’s biggest product launch.

Here’s what happened.

Both companies were about to launch new game consoles. The PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One. For six months, Microsoft pushed specs like processor speed and cloud power. They also told gamers they’d need to check in online to play used games.

People hated it.

Then at E3, the gaming industry’s biggest yearly trade show, Sony stepped on stage and played a short video. A guy hands a physical disc to his friend and says “this is how you share games on the PS4.” That’s the whole video.

The room erupted.

Microsoft had every advantage on paper but Sony beat them with a story.

Spec sheets win arguments but stories win customers because your audience is not a spreadsheet.

Some people hear “All Content Should Be Entertaining” and immediately imagine a nightmare world where they’re forced to do an interpretive dance of their quarterly P&L on TikTok.

Relax. I am not trying to turn your CFO into an influencer.

“Entertaining” does not necessarily mean performing. No juggling, dancing, acrobatics or singing required. It just means “not boring.” It means your audience does not feel like they are being slowly suffocated by a 37 slide deck disguised as a LinkedIn post. You know who you are. The PowerPoint carousel is not fooling or entertaining anyone.

Entertaining can be simple.
A clear how to that actually solves a problem is entertaining.
A real story from your customers is entertaining.
A behind the scenes screwup you learned from is entertaining.

And if your content only shows up when you want something, that is not a strategy. That is a public confession that you do not know the difference between sales and marketing. Good entertainment requires consistency and a willingness to show up often and generously for your audience.

So yeah, all content should be entertaining. Not because I want you to ride a unicycle on Instagram (although that does sound like something I would watch), but because no one builds trust by putting people to sleep.

A shocking number of businesses are still sending postcards to “Current Resident.” It’s the old spray and pray marketing strategy and it might have worked 30 years ago but times, they are a changing.

In 2025 your customers are making decisions on a phone while they wait for coffee not as they look through their mail at the end of the day.

I’m not saying direct mail is bad, it’s just REALLY easy to ignore. Growth lives where attention lives. And in 2025, that’s video.

But you can’t create a one-off promo and expect it to change the world. You need a simple, repeatable series that answers real questions, shows real people, and earns trust. Teach something useful. Show how it’s done. Tell the story behind the work. When people feel like they know you, they stop scrolling and start leaning in.

This is the kind of audience-first, value-driven video strategy (aka Legendeering) that turns strangers into regulars and regulars into referrals. It’s the modern handshake at scale.

If your marketing department is still licking stamps, it’s time to update the playbook. Put video to work in 2026 and make your message impossible to ignore.

If you only create and share videos when you’ve got something to push, your audience gets trained to see an ad and keep scrolling.

Stop doing that, it isn’t working.

Instead, build a simple series, pick a lane you can own, and commit to a cadence you can keep. Speak to real problems your audience wakes up with, share the why and the how not just the highlight reel, answer the questions they’re already asking, and close each episode with a clear invite to come back for more value.

Give it a few cycles and you’ll feel the shift: views turn into regulars, regulars stick around longer, trust starts to compound, and inbound gets a lot warmer. That’s the engine—value first, every time—and sales become the natural byproduct of being useful on purpose.

Build the show and serve first.

No reasonable person would disagree with this idea. And yet, so many businesses get this completely wrong.

They think that the only value they need to delvier is in the form of their products and they’re wrong. It is crucial to deliver value to your audience outside of your products and services. When brands get this right, not only do sales follow but they also built an ecosystem that drives future sales and long term success.

Take, for example, a local brewery that hosts trivia nights or food truck festivals. They aren’t just selling beer. They’re creating a place where people want to gather. That’s value. And when people feel that, they don’t just buy a pint, they keep coming back with friends in tow.

So, what’s the extra value you’re pouring for your audience?
