SPECIAL SERIES ==> “12 Minute Demo” Trick That Works 🤯 == | BATHROOM Break #90 COLLAB: The Marketing Millennials + Do This, Not That
Anyone who says marketing is about “big ideas” has never tried to book a demo in late January when everyone feels behind and allergic to time commitments. Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray get weirdly tactical about a simple lever that quietly boosts conversions right now: making everything feel shorter, sharper, and more specific. Also, yes, there is a strong plane baby strategy, and it involves apology gift bags, poopy diaper urgency, and an app that basically predicts human needs like a tiny marketing oracle.

(03:31) The 22-minute webinar trick that stands out and secretly gives people eight minutes back
(04:18) Why “12-minute demo” beats “15” or “30” because specifics feel more honest
(05:18) TLDR as a conversion cheat code in subject lines, landing pages, and social posts right now
(06:27) Adding “read time” to emails and content to lift opens and reduce resistance
